Proposal for a decision
Recital 8 a (new)

(8a) Cross-border threats to health are also often related to pathogenic agents that can be transmitted between individuals. While such transmission cannot be completely prevented, general hygiene measures can make an important contribution by reducing the speed and extent of spreading of the agent and thus reduce the general risk. Such good hygiene practices should be promoted, especially in sensitive environments and at the work place.
