How to use an alcohol-based hand sanitizer

You can use alcohol-based hand sanitizers when you don't have soap and water. If you use a hand sanitizer, make sure it has at least 60% alcohol. And wash your hands with soap and water as soon as you can.

Follow these steps:

• Apply the gel product to the palm of one hand. Check the label to find out the right amount.
• Rub your hands together.
• Rub the gel over all the surfaces of your hands and fingers until your hands are dry.
