The most important thing you can do to keep from getting sick is washing your hands. You wash away the germs you picked up from other people and contaminated surfaces.
To correctly wash your hands, first wet your hands and apply liquid or clean bar soap. Next, rub your hands vigorously together and scrub all surfaces. Continue for 10-15 seconds or the length of a little tune. Rinse well and dry your hands. By washing your hands you protect yourself as well as others.
