CDC Health and Sanitation Division Head Dr. Clemencita Dobles spearheaded the said activity with the theme “Hand Hygiene for All” which was attended by representatives from some of Clark’s locators.

The representatives who were present during the event are Widus Hotel and Casino, Starbucks, Jollibee, and Burger King among others.
