How Can I wash my hands without touching water?

Answer 1

Explanation:

To eliminate all traces of the virus on your hands, a quick scrub and a rinse won’t cut it. Below is a step-by-step process for effective handwashing.

Step 1: Wet hands with running water

Step 2: Apply enough soap to cover wet hands

Step 3: Scrub all surfaces of the hands – including back of hands, between fingers and under nails – for at least 20 seconds.

Step 4: Rinse thoroughly with running water

Step 5: Dry hands with a clean cloth or single-use towel

Answer 2

Lots of people use a paper towel to turn off a tap after washing their hands (and some people also use a paper towel to open the restroom door when they leave). Using your elbow to push the tap handle closed is another way to avoid touching it — although this is easier to do with some kinds of taps than others.
