Actually, according to the lastest research, it’s the rubbing that kills the nasty little organisms. If you can rub for 30 seconds and then rinse with water, good; no water? rubbing for 30 seconds – palms, backs of hands, between fingers, will work.

It may be important to make a distinction between antibacterial soaps and the alcohol-based hand gels. Many hospitals credit these gels as making a huge difference in stopping acquired infections in hospitals These gels are not as bad for the environment and there is no evidence that they encourage resistant organisms.
