Rinse your hands well under clean, running water.

Dry your hands with a clean towel or air dry them.

Handwashing is a simple habit that can protect your health and the health of others, especially during cold and flu season. Remember—clean hands save lives.

We provide clear, respectful explanations and resources that empower you to manage your health.
