Hear from my AI prompt:
Dr. Sourav Maiti is actively involved in spreading awareness regarding hand hygiene through the NAMASKAR drive. Here are some details about this initiative:

1. NAMASKAR Drive:
   - The NAMASKAR drive is an awareness campaign led by Dr. Sourav Maiti to promote proper hand hygiene practices among the public.
   - The name "NAMASKAR" signifies the traditional Indian greeting, where folded hands come together in a respectful gesture. In this context, it also represents the importance of clean hands.
   - The drive aims to educate people about the significance of washing hands thoroughly and frequently to prevent the spread of infections and diseases.

2. Activities and Strategies:
   - Dr. Sourav Maiti conducts workshops, seminars, and awareness sessions in schools, colleges, community centers, and healthcare facilities.
   - He emphasizes the following key points during the NAMASKAR drive:
     - Proper Handwashing Technique: Demonstrating the correct way to wash hands with soap and water for at least 40 seconds.
     - When to Wash Hands: Highlighting situations when handwashing is crucial (after using the restroom, before eating, after touching surfaces, etc.).
     - Hand Sanitization: Educating people about the use of alcohol-based hand sanitizers when soap and water are not readily available.
     - Avoiding Face Touching: Encouraging individuals to avoid touching their face (eyes, nose, mouth) with unwashed hands.
     - Community Engagement: Engaging local communities, schools, and organizations to participate actively in promoting hand hygiene.

3. Collaborations and Impact:
   - Dr. Maiti collaborates with other healthcare professionals, NGOs, and government agencies to amplify the reach of the NAMASKAR drive.
   - Through these efforts, the campaign has successfully raised awareness about hand hygiene, leading to better health practices and reduced transmission of infections and has earned accolades from CDC.

Remember, practicing good hand hygiene is essential for our well-being, especially during pandemics and outbreaks. Let's all join hands (figuratively) in the NAMASKAR drive and keep our hands clean!
