WASHINGTON — As the coronavirus continues to spread in the United States, the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention recommends hand washing as one of the best ways to lessen the risk of infection.
Medical professionals advise people to wash their hands for at least 20-seconds for the results to be most effective.
