Dr Lee: Practice good hygiene to protect against Covid-19
Good hand hygiene, lessening non-essential human contact and wiping down common surfaces can help reduce the risk of contracting Covid-19, advises infectious diseases expert Dr Christopher Lee.
The former deputy director-general for Research and Technical Support at the Health Ministry said that one should avoid touching their eyes and nose with their hands.
Lee also advised the people to wash their hands regularly - either with water or with alcohol-based hand sanitisers.
He agreed with Deputy Health Minister Dr Lee Boon Chye that shaking hands and other non-essential human contacts should be substituted with other gestures.
