This is one of the best articles I have seen about washing our hands.

Amen! Soap & water! The article does say wash for 15 sec. & many others say 20 sec. (including a segment on Oprah.) We had one poster (a nurse) who insisted 30 sec. was "it" so I changed some of our info. to 20 to 30 sec.

If only we could get those in the medical field to wash with soap & water! My pulmo. insists alcohol gel is "better." Not so, from what I've read.
