Antecedentes
Water, Sanitation, and Hygiene, or more collectively known as WASH, are three fundamental issues that are grouped together due to their interdependent nature. One common example is the absence of toilets contaminate water sources, and basic hygiene habits are impossible without access to clean water.
The provision of safe water, sanitation, and hygienic conditions is essential to protecting human health during all infectious disease outbreaks, including the COVID-19 outbreak . As proper hand-washing has been recommended to effectively fight the virus, it is therefore necessary to ensure that WASH practices and principles are consistently observed to prevent the spread of COVID-19.
