Why isn't washing twice a recommendation? When you do an extraction, say of lipid fractions into organic solvent, or really any separation, the increase multiple times is far more effective than once. So suggesting we wash for longer than usual will no doubt be good, why not suggest a second operation of washing instead?
I think the more use of chemicals on the hand may damage the skin. I am not sure.
Dear Colleagues and Friends from RG, Due to the development of the Covid-19 Coronavirus pandemic, frequent hand washing with detergents is recommended. Detergents damage the outer membranes of the Coronavirus structure and this causes the virus to disintegrate. In particular, remember to wash your hands when you leave and return home, and when being with other people. Most people who are infected with Coronavirus do not show symptoms of Covid-19 or only get the disease as if they were called common cold. Therefore, being with other people is not able to accurately determine the level of risk of infection with this coronavirus. Therefore, you should wash your hands often. It is also recommended to wash your hands after bringing home the various products purchased in stores. Of course, do not use too much detergents, too often, i.e. wash your hands with detergents every now and then or often disinfect with alcohol-containing disinfectants, because then the skin of your hands will be dried or allergic effects will appear.
Therefore, I am also joining the appeal. In connection with the development of the Coronavirus pandemic causing Covid-19 disease: IF YOU CAN, STAY AT HOME AND WASH YOUR HANDS OFTEN.
Best wishes.

Many communities or areas around the world are impoverished and may have resource constraints such as water, soap etc and therefore only stick to minimum effective safety precautions....Just a thought.
