Daily, how often do you wash your hands?

January 2, 2017 12:30pm CST
Every day I wash my hands several times (it's impossible to count). The reasons for me to wash them are several: before meals, after I use the bathroom, when I wash some food, because of some dirt (dust, sand, etc ...). The fact: it is impossible for me not to wash my hands several times during the day.

Depends on what I do and what I touch. I would wash my hands very often to avoid touching things around the house with dirty hands.

I'm a chronic hand-washer myself. I worked in the food business for years so got into the habit.

I wash mine many times during a day although I wouldn't say I'm obsessive. Recently my granddaughter had a tummy bug so I was washing my hands more often. It seemed to work as I didn't catch it.

I wash them as often as I can, since I´m aware of the harmful bacteria. I try to wash then before and after every meal, also after using the restroom.

I'm about the same - hate seeing men leave public bathrooms without bothering to wash their hands

When I do anything or go anywhere that may cause me to pick up germs.

I learned wash hands need twenty seconds with soap completely wash each time.

I wash my hands a lot during the day. I make sure to wash them everytime I use the bathroom which is a lot because I drink a lot of water in one day. I wash them before cooking or handling any kind of foods. Also if my hands get dirty from doing things.

Germs are everywhere - some places you least expect, so hand washing is good or using a sanitizer.
