Collaboration with Sister, Najwa Shihab Shares Powerful and Affordable Ways to Combat Corona

Kapanlagi.com - Najwa Shihab collaborated with her younger sister, Nahla Shihab, to educate the public on preventing the spread of the coronavirus. Najwa uploaded a video of Nahla, who is a dermatologist, demonstrating the correct way to wash hands according to WHO guidelines.

Nahla describes this method as the simplest yet most effective way to combat corona. Although simple, handwashing should not be done carelessly in order to thoroughly clean the body parts that frequently come into contact with foreign objects.

1. Must Not Be Haphazard

According to Dr. Nahla, the common mistake people make is just rubbing soap on the palms of their hands when washing their hands. However, viruses and bacteria can stick to other parts of the hands. The areas of the hands that need to be cleaned include the palms, back of the hands, fingers and fingertips, and wrists.

After washing and rubbing with soap, rinse both hands with running water and dry them with a dryer or disposable cloth. This process takes 40 to 60 seconds if done properly and correctly.

2. Want to Appear in Front of the Media

Until now, Nahla Shihab, who works as a doctor, has lived a life far from the media spotlight. However, her sister asked her to appear in the video in order to provide education related to the widespread cases of the coronavirus.

"Dr. Hala was asked by her sister to appear, so she obeyed," Najwa said in the comments column responding to netizens' reactions to Nahla's appearance in the media.
