The Importance of Hand Washing in Covid-19 Outbreak

Respiratory viruses such as COVID-19, spread when mucus or droplets containing the virus enter the body through the nose, mouth, or eyes. One of the cheapest, easiest, and most important ways to prevent the spread of the virus is to wash your hands often with soap and water. Then why is washing hand is important in the COVID-19 outbreak? Is it really work?

First, objects in public places may have viruses on them. Our hands touch many objects in public and there may be viruses on them. The contaminated hand then touches our eyes, nose, and mouth. We can become sick when the virus infected our body.

Second, we also interact with many people. There is a chance they can carry the virus in their hands when shaking hands or interacting with us. Even though we do not touch contaminated objects, we touch that person's hand.

Accordingly, washing hands is important because we can be contaminated at any time by viruses. Washing hands with soap will be cheaper and easier to do than using hand sanitizer. It is clear that washing hands keep the health of ourselves and the people we love around us, especially during the COVID-19 pandemic.
