Why hand washing is important?

Do you often wash your hands?
Hand washing is very important. I always wash my hands especially after using the toilet. People around the world wash their hands but few use soap at so called critical moments especially after using the toilet, after cleaning a baby and before touching food. But there are some who never care to wash their hands because they don't concern about the germs or they are just lazy in doing it.

All soaps are equally effective at removing disease-causing germs. They say the correct way to wash is to wet your hands with a small amount of water and cover them with soap. Rub it into all areas, including under the fingernails. Rub for at least twenty seconds. Then, rinse well under running water. And then dry your hands with a clean cloth or wave them in the air. Soap is important in washing hands because it increases the time that people spend washing. Soap also helps to remove or break up the grease and dirt that hold most of the germs and gives a pleasant smell, which increases inspiration that people will wash again.

I always wash my hands with soap before eating and after using the toilet, it could save more lives than any vaccine or medicine. It could help reduce cases of diarrhea by almost half. Hand washing can also avoid spreading of other diseases. When people get germs on their hands, they can infect themselves by touching their eyes, nose or mouth. And so they can infect others either. So we should aware of it.
