CLENDENIN, W.Va. (WSAZ) -- Health professionals have been encouraging frequent hand washing in an effort to keep you from getting the Swine Flu or other viruses, but do you really know if you're washing properly?

Several Kanawha County paramedics stopped by Clendenin Elementary School early Thursday morning for a hand washing exercise.

The paramedics used a special light so the children could see just what was left on their hands after they washed them.

Experts also went over the proper techniques for hand washing.
