Caution on public transport to prevent COVID-19 2:05
(CNN) - Cases of coronavirus increase in the US, but health officials say one of the best ways to prevent it from spreading is by washing your hands.
It's simple enough, right? Maybe not.
There is a proper way to do it. And it doesn't include rinsing your hands for a moment and a half, drying the leftover drops on your jeans and believing that is all.
The CDC instructions say you should lather your hands with soap for at least 20 seconds. To help you keep track of the weather, the agency suggests that you hum the song "Happy Birthday" twice.
But nobody wants that in the head if it is not a special occasion. Then, instead, we compile a list of songs with a melody of each decade to help you sing while you eliminate germs.
And for these songs, there is no need to hum.

Was dancin 'to the Jailhouse Rock
