Keeping hands clean is one of the most important things we can do to stop the spread of respiratory illnesses like flu and COVID-19.
Proper Handwashing Tips:
- Wash hands thoroughly with soap + warm water
- Wash for 20-30 seconds or sing “Happy Birthday” two times in a row
- Soap and warm water are the best way to clean your hands, but if they aren’t available, use an alcohol-based hand sanitizer, that contains at least 60% alcohol
How to Use Hand Sanitizers:
- Apply the sanitizer to the palm of one hand (follow label directions on how much to use)
- Rub hands together
- Rub the sanitizer over all the surfaces of your hands + fingers until hands are dry.
