Whenever you touch something that contains germs, like raw meat, a dirty cleaning cloth or a surface that someone has sneezed over, germs can transfer to your hands. If you then touch your eyes, nose or mouth, a wound, or food or water that you then consume, these germs can get inside your body and make you ill. The germs on your hands can also spread to all the other people and places that you touch.
One of the best ways to stop germs from spreading around your home and to you and the rest of your family, is to wash your hands regularly with soap and water. If your hands look dirty, you need to wash them to remove the dirt and germs. However, to reduce the risk of infections, such as colds and flu, and those that cause vomiting and diarrhoea, you also need to wash your hands before or after certain tasks – even if your hands look clean. These are the key times to wash your hands.
