Coronavirus is in news from the starting of this year 2020. Till now 14-March-2020, around 116 countries are affected by coronavirus covid-19. So it is very important for us to take precautions.
Washing hands is a very common process but many of us don’t know the proper way of that. By proper hygiene, you can prevent the spread of covid 19 which is a type of coronavirus. So if you want yourself to be safe from coronavirus you should wash your hands regularly.
If you have the availability of soap and water. Handwashing with soap and water will work very well. But if you are traveling you don’t have that facility then you should use a hand sterilizer. But what I like to stress is that you should wash your hands properly. It is the proper process that needs to be followed.
Just using soap and water and rubbing your palm is not good enough. First, rub your palm properly with soap and water then you cover the back of your hands because that is a very important area that can be left behind. Then there is an area between your fingers so you rub between that. Then you have nails you should rub the tips of your nails. What is left behind is your thumb, you use soap water on your thumb to clean your thumb. And then you take it all the way up to your wrist so that up to your wrist every area is covered. It is very important to do that because you may just do this and wash your hands, but you may have coronavirus between your fingers or the back of your hands.
So wash your hands properly, there are people who developed a song for that, so that they don’t forget it and they have different methods of doing it so that each step is followed so if you follow that mechanism you clean your hands totally and that is the most important thing and if you use ordinary soap and water it is equally good and sometimes even better.
