We have to touch – to open a door, to turn on a light, to make phone calls. How can contamination be avoided?
Flick light switches with the side of your hand or wrist, keeping the germs from your hands. Carry your own pen instead of using the one at the cashier counter. Use your cell phone to make calls rather than the phone in a hotel , public area, or friend’s home. When leaving a rest room or entering a building, hold a tissue in your hand so your hand does not touch the door.
