            Keeping your hands clean is very important, especially during this pandemic. That’s why I am going to teach you how to wash your hands properly.

 

            First, turn on the tap and wet your hands under running water. Then, apply enough soap to cover all surfaces of your hands. Next, rub hands palm to palm in a circular motion until bubbles are formed. After that, clean the back of each hand with the palm of your opposite hand. Interlace your fingers while doing so to remove the bacteria caught between your fingers. Afterwards, rub palm to palm likewise.

 

            Bacteria can get stuck easily in your fingernails, so don’t forget to scrub your fingernails too. Finally, rinse the soap off your hands with water and dry them with a towel.

 

            Remember to wash your hands before and after you eat to prevent unwanted bacteria from entering your body, causing you to fall sick. A good hygiene is the way to stay healthy and safe.
