Ryan washed his hands before preparing salads.What did Ryan do wrong. a He applied hand sanitizer before washing his hands b He
Pie

The answer is D and H, washing his hands for 5 seconds. Washing your hands for 5 seconds is not productive and, but 30- 45 seconds is productive. Touching the door with your wet hands is pushing it now. Why he should have dried his hands more

In my opinion that is disgusting. If this was an actual event and I knew this info I would not want to touch any salad he prepared.
