Why did the World Health Organization recommendations only wash hands and did not mention rinsing the mouth and sniffing, or is it ungrateful for the preference for ablution in the face of the Corona virus?
It is general information to the common public to maintain his or herself from Corona pandemic period.
The human beings are always maximum using our hands for any type of work I'd day to day operations in their life.
It is possible to get the virus by touching the different objects.
As Professor Aparna Sathya Moorthy has highlighted that the mouth and nose were covered by mask already but if your hands will be cleaned often that you can try to reduce the virus infections.
Whatever be its recommendations, the main objective of WHO is to ensure the well-being of the people of the planet and it is failing terribly at this over the past one year.
Protecting your eyes nose and mouth (T Zone) is the ONLY portal of entry, so cover them up wear a face shield! A face shield also protects you from the 10 most deadly weapons (your fingers) and the face shield helps you "Break the bad unconscious habit" of touching (self inoculating) your facial mucous membranes (eyes, nose and mouth= T Zone). Handwashing helps reduce the "viral load" on your fingers IF you self inoculate your T Zone (visit www.henrythehand.org )so frequent handwashing reduces your risk of direct inoculation.
