Washing hands with soap and water is the best way to reduce the number of microbes on them in most situations. If soap and water are not available, use an alcohol-based hand sanitizer that contains at least 60% alcohol.

Pamplona, Spain - As this year's San Fermin Festival comes to an end in the Spanish city of Pamplona, the famed running of the bulls faces an uncertain future. Much like Spanish politics of late, the tradition is going through an era of upheaval.
In reality, only six bulls run the course each day. The bulls are chased -- or motivated -- along the course by oxen with bells on their necks. Eight of the oxen are released at the same time as the bulls and two of which are released afterwards to run any straggling bulls along. Sprint, Not a Marathon. The Running of the Bulls course is just 825 meters (a little over 900 yards) long. Runners gather in the same square, outside of the Plaza del Castillo bullring each morning from July 7 to July 14 at 7:55 am.
