The ASM has for a number of years been supporting a hand washing campaign. The 31 March 2011 issue of The New England Journal of Medicine has a very good 14-minute-long video on hand washing in clinical care. (Pre-surgical hand scrubbing is not covered.) The video is by Yves Longtin, Hugo Sax, Benedetta Allegranzi, Franck Schneider and Didier Pittet.
