One of the best ways to get rid of germs and prevent getting sick is washing your hands often! Frequently touched areas are often covered in germs from many different people. When you touch them, the germs get on your hands. Touching things like your face, eyes, mouth, nose, etc. after touching these spaces can cause you to get very sick. You may also spread your own germs or the germs you picked up on your hands to other surfaces. Washing your hands can help to kill the germs and wash them away.
