How does the Agency recommend that people wash their hands?
To wash hands properly, we recommend these six steps: 1. Wet your hands thoroughly under warm running water and squirt liquid soap onto the palm of one hand. 2. Rub your hands together to make a lather. 3. Rub the palm of one hand along the back of the other and along the fingers. Then repeat with the other hand. 4. Rub in between each of your fingers on both hands and round your thumbs. 5. Rinse off the soap with clean water. 6. Dry hands thoroughly on a disposable towel.
