Just sanitize palms when appropriate
Sometimes, a full hand wash isn’t necessary. If you just touched something with your fingertips or picked up something small with your fist, then only the front of your hand could have become contaminated. In those cases, a drop or two of hand sanitizer should be fine. If you know the tops of your hands didn’t touch anything, then there’s no need to scrub away.
