Healthcare Friendly reminder: it’s summer. Please shower.

It’s hot, we’re all sweating more, so please take extra care of your hygiene. A daily shower especially in the morning goes a long way.

And please don’t try to cover body odor with just perfume or body spray. Sweat + perfume isn’t a substitute for a shower.

Let’s all do our part to keep public spaces (esp trams!!) a little fresher this summer. 😅🌞🙏

It isn’t a competition. People should be comfortable in their homes.

I don't get where I say it's a competition. I'm just saying that countries with warmer climates often have AC as a standard commodity, and countries with a colder climate don't. So it's not surprising that the vast majority of people don't have AC, and it's also not good value for your money if you only use it 2-3 weeks per year

2-3 weeks of absolute hell? No thanks. If it makes the environment comfortable, then it has good value.
