Flu Vaccination 4 of 6
Facts about hand washing
Up to half of men and a quarter of women fail to wash their hands after going to the toilet. You have between 2 and 10 million bacteria between your fingertip and elbow. The number of germs on your hands doubles after you have been to the toilet. Germs can stay alive on your hands for up to 3 hours
When to wash
You should wash your hands before you prepare or eat food, treat any type of wound or visit a hospital ward. You should wash your hands after you have used the bathroom, handled uncooked food, blown your nose, coughed or sneezed, touched animals, taken out the rubbish, changed a nappy, worked or played in the garden, touched a sick person or visited a hospital ward
How to wash your hands
According to the World Health organisation it should take 20-30 seconds to wash your hands with alcohol- based formulations and 40-60 seconds using soap and water. It is important to dry them thoroughly as well.
