Abstract
- We begin with an outline of the history of human hygiene, exploring how our knowledge of bacteria and viruses helped develop the civilization we live in today
- With our current knowledge of biology and the increase of information, we tackle questions such as:
How did this knowledge changed the way we consider our personal hygiene and the hygiene of our communities, towns and cities
How did this lack of knowledge contribute to epidemics like the Black Plague which decimated Europe during the dark ages
How does our over-reliance on information, trade and travel in a globally connected world presents new challenges with dealing with modern pandemics like COVID-19
- Lastly, we identify the parallels of a clean environment and it's connection to a healthy immune system and how routine cleaning can help to maintain a healthy and prosperous community
We appreciate your patience
