What's the Difference between Hand Washing and using a Hand Sanitizer?

These two are not the same, and priority should be placed on handwashing overusing a hand sanitizer. Handwashing with soap and water should be prioritized over the use of hand sanitizer.
It can be really helpful knowing when to wash your hands or rubbing a hand sanitizer. This can help you respond effectively to the widespread coronavirus and other illnesses such as the seasonal flu
and the common cold.

The CDC recommends you only turn to a hand sanitizer when soap and water aren't around.

However, how effective can you wash your hands?

1.  do it after coming out of the bathroom.
2.  do it after sneezing, coughing or blowing your nose.
3.  do it before eating.
4.  do it after rubbing your hands on surfaces that might be contaminated.

And in doing so,

1.  use clean and running, warm, or cold water.
2.  first of all, wet your hand with the water, turn it off, rub soap for over 20 minutes and then wash your hands.
3.  don't forget to scrub the back and between fingers.
4.  cut your nails or make sure you can wash underneath it very well.
5.  rinse your hands well, air dry, or use a tissue or clean towel.

Finally, don't forget to take your hand sanitizer in a little bottle along with you should there be a need to use it? Encourage good hygiene in your home. Keep everywhere clean, and stay and safe.
