Hand Washing Rates by Race
Racial demographics are recorded differently all over the world. In addition, it would be disingenuous to say that African people wash their hands the least as if it's some kind of cultural observation. Many people in Africa don't have the means for regular hand washing.
- The percentage of Asian people who washed their hands in 2020 in the US was the highest at 86.2%.
- The ethnicity that washed their hands the least in the US in 2020 was 'Other' or mixed race people, at 71.9%.
- Black people in the US are the least likely to use hand sanitizer regularly, with just 65.6% using it after contact with people.
The US has gathered data about how different ethnic groups washed their hands during the COVID-19 pandemic. The Asian population was the highest at over 86%, with white people as the second highest with 80.2%. Three out of every four Hispanic people washed their hands regularly, while 72.7% of Black people did.
There are also statistics regarding the use of hand sanitizer. Every population in the US used hand sanitizer less often than they washed their hands. Again, the Asian population was highest at 79%, followed by the white population at 72%. About 68% of Hispanic people used hand sanitizer, while a little over 65% of Black people did.

Yeah fukking right..Asians sell panties in vending machines.
What's the sample size and were the handwashing habits self-reported?
This doesn't match with my personal experience at all, and the experiences of most people in the thread, so I'm sceptical about the 80% figure for white handwashing
How convenient, a cac study.
that nikka Hiphopstan purposely chose a specific article to spread some type of agenda because you got articles like this that say otherwise
