There is currently no globally acknowledged cure to coronavirus (COVID-19), but there are guides to limiting our exposure to this virus. Until now, washing of hands, using of face mask, and social distance are the most common practice to help protect oneself from invisible contagions.

While emphasizing on sanitizing and washing of hands as the best ways to control the spread of any contagious disease, we consider it wise that the frequently touched surfaces (that contaminate the hands we are admonished to wash) should be given more attention, especially as one of the important ways to guide against the spread of communicable diseases in Africa, as indirect spread from surface-to-person is common in Africa; after all, if surfaces and objects that contaminate hands are free of contaminants, there will be less reason to wash our hands every time. As a matter of fact, the US Centres for Disease Control and Prevention recommends regular cleaning of frequently touched surfaces, along with thorough hand washing - both standard practices for helping slow the spread of viruses and bacteria. Frequently touched surfaces and objects that will need routine disinfection include tables, doorknobs and door handles, light switches, mobile gadgets, remote controls, car steering, counter tops, desks, mobile & table phones, toilets basin, faucets, touch screens, ATM machines & Cards, sports equipment, toys, cabinet handles, computer keyboard, computer mouse, handheld electronics, elevator buttons, shopping carts, etc.

In contrast to hand hygiene, the relevance of surface disinfection or environmental disinfection has remained controversial. However, surface disinfection has been included in a number of recent national and international infection control policies and recommendations.

Viruses can be acquired from environmental surfaces either directly from surface-to-finger-to-mouth or directly from surface-to-mouth.

Before the COVID-19 pandemic, you probably didn’t think twice about whether you were washing your hands and home correctly; after all, it’s second nature—you’ve been doing it routinely for years, right? But COVID-19 pandemic is illuminating steps that many people may not be doing correctly—and now more than ever it’s important to ensure that your home, frequently touched surfaces and objects have to be thoroughly disinfected to prevent the spread of COVID-19, and other prevalent contagious infections.

It is important to properly clean and disinfect the surfaces in our homes, offices and other commonly used places. Germs, also called "microorganisms" can make us sick. They live on many surfaces and can contaminate food, utensils and other objects that we use to prepare and eat our food with.

Cleanliness in the kitchen begins before you start to prepare food. Everything that comes into contact with your hands or food must be thoroughly cleaned and sanitized. This includes dishes, cutlery, utensils, pots and pans, counter tops, cutting boards as well as kitchen cloths, faucets, can opener blades, and refrigerator handles. Harmful bacteria that are not visible may thrive and multiply in food that is prepared by unclean hands in an unclean kitchen so, before preparing food, get off to a clean start.
