Postpartum depression & anxiety doesn’t just affect new moms…10% of new dads experience it too.

It can show up later – around 3-6 months after the baby is born.

Good hand hygiene is one of the best ways to prevent illness.

Wash your hands with soap and water before eating, after using the washroom, and after caring for someone who is sick. Small actions can make a big difference.

[Toronto Public Health @TOPublicHealth]

Wash away germs before they spread.
Protect yourself and others by washing your hands often with soap and water, especially before eating or preparing food and after using the washroom.
