Washing your hands is crucial in preventing the spread of everyday illnesses like the flu and common cold.
2020-03-03Running your hands under hot water and soap is also one of the best ways to prevent yourself from contracting the coronavirus — which has infected over 90,000 people and killed over 3,000 worldwide.
The Center for Disease Control and Prevention recommends washing your hands for 20 seconds or more, which takes approximately as long as singing the "Happy Birthday" song twice.
