Popular Post jsharr ★ Posted April 3, 2020 Popular Post Share #1 Posted April 3, 2020 I seldom leave the house, but if I go outside and then come back in, I wash my hands. I wash after using the restroom of course I wash before touching food. At least I am not this poor lady. 3 4 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Dottleshead ★ Posted April 3, 2020 Share #2 Posted April 3, 2020 No. I don't go out much anymore so there's no reason to. But i go out, I'm pretty religious about it. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

donkpow Posted April 3, 2020 Share #6 Posted April 3, 2020 I wash my hands just a bit more often since the epidemic started. Carefully, I wash after exposure. I don't wash my hands after changing the TV channel or anything like that. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
shootingstar Posted April 4, 2020 Share #7 Posted April 4, 2020 I'm kinda tired of thinking about it so consciously all the time when leaving home, and coming back to do it. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
sheep_herder ★ Posted April 4, 2020 Share #8 Posted April 4, 2020 I wash my hands about the same amount now as I did before. Normally wash when I come in, whether from town or with the livestock, etc. Always wash hands before testing for blood glucose, and I do that 4 times per day. I was at the store on Thursday and Friday and the vet on Friday, but home otherwise. So, I don't see my hand washing habits changing much. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Prophet Zacharia Posted April 4, 2020 Share #9 Posted April 4, 2020 At work I go through a lot of Purrell. At home the only difference is I’ll wash after handling the mail or putting groceries away. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Longjohn ★ Posted April 4, 2020 Share #10 Posted April 4, 2020 I found another box on the front porch yesterday while I was working outside. UPS must have snuck in while my back was turned. They park the truck out on the road and walk up my driveway. I was already wearing work gloves so walked down the driveway and got the mail and threw it away, then I sprayed down the box on the front porch. I finished what I was doing outside and then I brought the box in and opened it up. A bunch more bags of air and a bottle of hand sanitizer. I took the box and a bunch of other boxes out to the brush pile and burned them and then came in and washed my hands. Getting deliveries is getting complicated. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Square Wheels Posted April 4, 2020 Share #11 Posted April 4, 2020 I rarely wash my hands, never have. When I did construction and was sitting on a pile of lumber in the middle of the woods eating lunch, your sandwich fell in the dirt, you picked it up, brushed it off and ate it - or you want hungry. Did that for about 10 years. We were lucky if we got a porta a potty, usually used the woods. Never had a place to wash my hands. WIpes didn't exists yet except for babies. No such thing as Purell. Those habits have been hard to change. I still rarely wash my hands, I hate Purell. I almost never get sick. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
MickinMD ★ Posted April 4, 2020 Share #12 Posted April 4, 2020 Most of the hand washing I did yesterday was to avoid cross-contamination from the raw fish I was preparing to bake. Otherwise, since I'm spending most of my time in the apartment, I don't think there's a much chance of coronavirus being tracked into it except through stuff I bring into the house, where it won't survive long except in moist products like meat, fresh fruit, and fresh veggies. I wash when handling those. I have a little bottle of Purell sitting in my car since it was the rage a couple years ago. I've been using that when I get back to my car. When it runs out, I'll do a Windex (claims to kill germs) and water mix I can dry with a paper towel (which I put in a plastic garbage bag). Otherwise, at home there's not a lot of reasons for coronavirus to be present. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
BR46 Posted April 4, 2020 Share #13 Posted April 4, 2020 I've always been a little bit of germaphobe so hand washing is just a little bit more than before. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I’ve always been the opposite, a dirt builds immunity kind of guy, so same here, just a little more and for a little longer. But mainly if and when I leave the house. Which I am avoiding like the plague now. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Indy Posted April 4, 2020 Share #18 Posted April 4, 2020 I would have to leave the house, or at least go where other people are and touch things other people do. Since I rarely do that, I can now rarely wash my hands again. Ah, the stink and lack of hygiene feels so good again. Kind of like camping. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
