Why worry about touching your face?
According to CDC, if you cannot stay isolated, keeping you hands clean and not touching your face are still the best strategies for staying healthy.
All kind of viruses and bacteria can gain a much easier access to your body though involuntary face touching. And we do it a lot on autopilot… in fact as often as 3-4 times each 10 minutes.
With enough support we plan to make it a reality – a configurable program which runs in a background of your computer, watches over you and trains you not to do it.
This way it’s not only affects you immediately, but also teaches you a good habit, which will keep your healthy beyond office hours.
