Regular hand-washing is the best way to prevent the spread of germs as it removes potential bacteria and viruses from your hands. Options A and D may provide some protection, but not as effectively as washing hands. Wearing gloves at all times can be counterproductive as germs can get trapped inside, and sanitizer may not be as effective as washing hands. Working quickly may not provide enough time for proper hand-washing, leaving hands unclean and still able to spread germs. Therefore, option C is the recommended and most effective choice for preventing the spread of germs.
