In this episode of "Transmissible: A Public Health Podcast," we journey to mid-19th century Vienna to uncover the tragic yet inspiring story of Dr. Ignaz Semmelweis. Dr. Semmelweis's revolutionary epidemiologic work proved the importance of handwashing in preventing childbed fever, yet he faced fierce resistance from the medical establishment of his time. Despite the initial rejection and personal sacrifices, his discoveries eventually transformed medical practices and saved countless lives.

This quarantined conversation with Rayson took place on May 5th, 2020, at the height of the world-wide Coronavirus Pandemic. Rayson is the host of the Raygacy Show, where he is a motivational and inspirational speaker, where he has had the privilege of interviewing top entrepreneurs such as Gary Vaynerchuk and Grant Cardone. He is also a nurse at the Institute of Mental Health in Singapore. I invited Rayson on today because I wanted to get his personal experience with being quarantined from Singapore with the current COVID-19 / Coronavirus crisis. There, they are also experiencing shutdowns and stay-at-home orders; however, they call it the “Circuit Breaker.” Rayson shares a little bit of how the Circuit Breaker got its name. I first interviewed Rayson about 2 years ago in episode #59, and at that time, he had about 1000 followers on Instagram, and now, just 2 years later, he has over 10,000 followers! He was kind to give us a quick rundown of how he has been able to grow his brand so quickly. Rayson tells us about the 5-Points to Hand Hygiene, which are, “Wash your hands…” before touching a patient, before clean/aseptic procedures, after body fluid exposure/risk, after touching a patient, and. after touching patient surroundings. Rayson ends with encouraging everyone to take this time, while quarantined, to reconsider what it is that you want your life to be and go for it. You only have one life to live. No one can live your life for you, and there is only one you. It's up to you to build the life that you want. He encourages us to come out stronger and let yourself be known to the world.  Follow Rayson on:  YouTube: Raygacy Vlogs  Facebook: Rayson Choo Instagram: @raygacy Rayson's Telegram Group Additional: Rayson mentions the book, The Secret by Rhonda Byrne, which is a book about the laws of attraction, positivity, mindfulness, etc…, and you can watch Rayson's interview with Bob Doyle here.

Hand hygiene is the number one line of defense when it comes to controlling the spread of healthcare-associated infections (HAI) and infectious disease.  Since we know that antibiotic and antimicrobial resistance is on the rise, and few new antibiotics are being developed, it becomes exceedingly important that we prevent people from acquiring these infections in the first place. We know that hand-washing is effective when done right, and we know that when monitored, we do it right. In fact, right after we recorded this podcast the Jama Network showed us that patient mortality decreased during unannounced accreditation surveys at US Hospitals. The point is that you can expect what you inspect.   This episode originally aired on >The #HCBiz Show! on April 19th, 2017.   On this episode, we get into the details with Tamás Haidegger and discuss: Why hand hygiene is so important How the struggle to get it right goes back to the 1800s The complex human psychology that we need to address to solve this problem The astonishing number of people who fail hand-washing tests even when they know they're being monitored Engineering solutions that can help keep us objective How hand-hygiene can save the U.S. healthcare system $9 Billion next year   For more details visit DeepDive.tips
