Some points where your hand must go inside your pocket or purse to fetch the sanitizer are \u2013 before and after eating, after sneezing, after traveling through public transports, after visiting a crowded public place or a place with high touch-points like temples, churches, museums, etc. Once back in your room, you may wash your hands and face with soap and water.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>We need not be scared or overwhelmed with the situation; we just need to face it cautiously.
