Dads get the message on hygiene

Mums can breathe a sigh of relief as dads finally get the message on personal hygiene.

New research from SCA finds that since the swine flu panic, 40 per cent of men are now taking their cleanliness more seriously and 35 per cent are even showering more.

According to the SCA’s 2010 report Hygiene Matters, since 2009, 89 per cent of people in the UK have started washing their hands more frequently.

Now the country has been ranked second behind China as one of the top ten nations when it comes to good hand hygiene.
