Reading now: 927
a COVID-19 vaccine when it is available, practicing social distancing and wearing masks, the U.S. Centers for Disease Control and Prevention (CDC) recommends people wash their hands often -- with soap and water -- to prevent the spread of COVID-19.
Although the CDC doesn't define how many times "often" is, five or more times a day likely aligns with the CDC's recommendation.When asked how many times they washed their hands or used hand sanitizer the previous day, the world's population seems to be complying.
The majority of adults (58%) who Gallup surveyed in 118 countries and areas in the latter half of 2020 said they washed their hands with soap and water -- or used hand sanitizer -- five or more times the previous day.
