Pumping Gas Without Passing Along Germs
When you fill up your car, you have to touch the same gas pump that everyone else has handled— there’s no avoiding it! While we can’t guarantee that everyone else who has touched it has taken the proper precautions to prevent the spread of germs, you can make sure that you do your part to keep those around you safe and illness free.
• Wear gloves – You might feel a little silly doing it but wearing disposable gloves will help prevent the spread of any germs to your hands.
• Carry disinfectant – If you have it available, use disinfecting wipes before and after you pump your gas. You’ll want to check the CDC’s list of effective disinfectants to ensure what you have available is effective.
• Wash your hands – When you’re finished pumping your gas, wash your hands thoroughly. You’ll want to follow these steps to make sure you’re properly cleaning them:
Wash your hands often with soap and water for at least 20 seconds.
