The World Health Organisation (WHO), in its new ad as a public service announcement to remind people to wash their hands, features global comedy star Mr Bean. WHO, in the new COVID-19 checklist, enlists washing hands, maintaining physical distance, and treating each other with kindness.

WHO, in collaboration with ‘Project Everyone’ and Tiger Aspect Productions, has its new public service announcement titled, ‘Mr Bean’s essential COVID-19 checklist’. The checklist acts as a simple yet essential to-do list during the COVID-19 pandemic.
