Question 84
These are some of the things we can do:
- Wash our hands with soap and water before eating or working with food and after going to the toilet. Also drying our hands well on a clean towel.
- Wash our hands after handling animals, cleaning up animal waste or gardening.
- Wash raw unpeeled fruits and vegetables before eating them.
- Keep food covered.
- Do not leave food at room temperature, especially when the weather is hot, as bacteria and fungi grow faster when it is warm.
- Keep the kitchen, toilet and surroundings clean.
- Wash knives and working surfaces in the kitchen with hot soapy water after using them.
- Only drink safe, clean water. Boil water from rivers or reservoirs, or use water that has been chemically treated at water treatment plants to make it safe.
- Do not use rivers or other bodies of water as a toilet.
- Cover your nose and mouth with a tissue when you cough or sneeze. If you do not have a tissue, cough or sneeze into your elbow, not your hand.
- Keep wounds covered with a plaster and do not touch other people’s open wounds.
