Hand Washing

Wash Hands Often

Wash your hands often with soap and water for at least 20 seconds especially after you have been in a public
place, or after blowing your nose, coughing, or sneezing.
  • If soap and water are not readily available, use a hand sanitizer that contains at least 60% alcohol. Cover all surfaces of your hands and rub them together until they feel dry.
  • Avoid touching your eyes, nose, and mouth with unwashed hands.
