Global Hygiene Council recommends: "Hand Hygiene, the first line of defence against flu and viral infections". Hand hygiene is defined as hand washing or washing hands with soap and water or using a waterless hand sanitizer. Hand hygiene is central to preventing spread of infectious diseases in home and everyday life settings.
According to the Global Hygiene Council steps as simple as washing hands frequently with soap and water for a minimum of 20 seconds, coughing or sneezing into your elbows, washing your hands thoroughly after contact with an ill person, are the most effective and powerful tools against many infections. The council emphasizes that these simple, easy practices are adaptable by every individual and are exercisable both inside and when outside the home.
