Hygiene protocols

[Paul]

Group hygiene is vital, we all know that.
To me it's all about the numbers and accomodation.

Communial living in large numbers moves hygiene into a whole new game.
Without suitable premises, large group hygiene is usually pathetic.
Refugee camp standards, very third world.

Communial living really sucks in the field unless you can exert strong leadership and standards.
The problem is strong leadership and standards aren't generally well accepted by the masses.

I wouldn't like to be part of a large group for this reason.

My ideal number for survival post TEOTWAWKI?
Probably no more than 6, a balanced group of men and women.
The priority for me would be shelter.
Not some debris hut or canvas tilt, proper accomodation.
Then you stand a good chance of establishing safe hygiene standards.
