Episode 1: A Day in the Life of a Lead

You wear it. You trust it. And you probably don’t think twice about who had it on before you. But by the end of a single shift, that shared lead apron has picked up more than just radiation.

In the first episode of the Clean Those Leads campaign, we trace one apron’s journey through a normal hospital day. Changing hands, collecting sweat, bacteria, and unseen risks. It’s a close-up look at how fast contamination builds, and how easily it’s overlooked.

If you’ve ever reached for a damp collar or smelled that familiar odor, you already know the issue. What you might not know is how preventable it is.
