seven, make a fist around your left thumb and rub rotationally. Remember to do this with the right thumb.
Step eight, clasp your fingers together and rub them in a circle on the palm of your other hand. Do this on the
other hand. Step nine, rinse your hands with water. And now, your hands are clean. But wait, there’s a last
step, the tenth, dry your hands with a clean towel. If you are in a public place, dry your hands with a paper
towel or single-use towel. Use the same towel to turn off the faucet before throwing it properly in the trash
bin. It there’s no paper towel, make sure to splash water on the faucet before turning it off. And then, just
shake your hands.
