Thorough hand washing is typically recommended. But use of hand sanitizers is promoted, too. However, a recent study found that staff in long-term care facilities who relied too much on hand sanitizers over hand washing actually reported more outbreaks of norovirus-related illness.
If soap and water are not available it is recommended to use a hand sanitizer that contains at least 60 percent alcohol or contains a persistent antiseptic. Alcohol rubs kill many different kinds of bacteria, including antibiotic resistant bacteria and TB bacteria.
