WASH YOUR HANDS WITH SOAP
Soap is needed to wash hands because it can annihilate viruses, because soap is
made up of two sided molecules, one side is attracted to water and the other to
fat. The virus is made up of proteins and fat which the soap can destroy.
Q: Why should we wash our hands for 20 seconds?
A: It takes time for the soap to be effective and kill the virus,
Q: Why is water not enough?
A: The virus has a layer that acts like oil so water will just flow over the virus and
not remove it !
