During times that is an outbreak of a very harmful pathogen like a coronavirus such as COVID-19, it is more important than ever to keep your hands as clean as possible at all times (and try to remember not to touch your face). You should be thoroughly cleaning your hands, and the World Health Organisation recommends that the handwashing process should take around 20 to 30 seconds minimum. This amount of time gives the soap you're using the time it needs to do the work it needs to do to get your hands clean, as soap doesn't work instantly.
Remove any jewellery prior to washing your hands, as they can easily harbour infection. After removing jewellery, turn on the tap and wet your hands. Apply soap and evenly cover all surfaces of both hands.
Then you need to dry your hands, as it is estimated that damp hands spread 1000 times the number of bacteria than dry hands.
