"Please stop biting your nails"
Posted by Marlene Orros on 4th Apr 2020
People should avoid biting their nails, especially amid the pandemic. Respiratory germs like the new coronavirus can't enter your body unless you let them in through your eyes, nose, or mouth.
Picking at nails and cuticles can put you at risk for bacterial infections around the fingernails
To help prevent the spread of germs and nail infections, we recommend keeping nails short and trimming them frequently, as well as to "scrub the underside of nails with soap and water (or a nail brush)" each time hands are washed.
