Caption:

The very young boy depicted here, was holding a plastic fork in his right hand, with which he’d speared a piece of cantaloupe, that he’d been served in a daycare setting, along with a number of other fruits upon a paper plate, during the class’s meal time. It is very important for daycare, and school personnel to practice stringent handwashing technique as often as possible, and to include the children in this practice, when appropriate. By doing so, this activity can affect a reduction in the possibility of transferring pathogens between school/daycare attendees.
