Wash your hands: before and after using the public bathrooms
Give them a soapy, warm water wash for at least 30 seconds. It is advised to use hand sanitizer with a minimum of 60% alcohol concentration as a backup if the water tap isn’t working and you can’t wash your hands. By doing this, you will greatly reduce the amount of bacteria and feces that are transferred from your hands to your face, eyes, or mouth through restroom surfaces. When leaving the restroom after washing your hands, be careful not to touch the door!
