Question: 1 / 400

What is the correct handwashing procedure?

Rinse hands with water only

Wash hands with cold water and soap

Wash hands by scrubbing with soap and warm water for at least 15 seconds, then rinse and dry

Washing hands is an important step in preventing the spread of germs and illness. While rinsing with water only may remove some dirt and germs from your hands, it is not enough to effectively remove all germs. Using cold water may also not be as effective in removing dirt and germs as warm water. Using hand sanitizer instead of washing may not be as effective because it does not physically remove dirt and germs from your hands. The correct handwashing procedure is to use warm water and soap, and to scrub for at least 15 seconds before rinsing and drying. This will help to effectively remove dirt and germs from your hands.
