To prevent spreading infectious diseases like COVID-19, the CDC (Centers for Disease Control and Prevention) recommends washing your hand with soap and water for 20 seconds whenever possible. When you are not able to wash your hand, the CDC suggests using a hand sanitizer with at least 60% alcohol. Coronavirus is enveloped viruses, which mean they have an outer wrapping covering the actual virus. Alcohol-Based hand sanitizer disrupts the virus envelope, which is a membrane covering the virus particle. When this membrane is disrupted, it inactivates the virus.

If you cannot wash your hand instead, you should also use a hand sanitizer before touching your  face or eating. For respiratory viruses, in particular, one of the ways that you can get sick is if  you have the virus on one finger and you touch your eyes, nose, or mouth. So, if you need to touch your face, you should be washing your hands or using a hand sanitizer.
