(b) If the contamination is localized, mask off the affected area and cleanse with swabs, before risking the danger of spreading the contaminant by general washing. (c) Procedure for general hand washing are as follows: 1. Wash for not less than 2 minutes, nor more than 3 minutes with mild pure soap in moderately warm water with a good lat.her, covering the entire affected area thoroughly. Give special attention to areas bvetween the fingers and around the finger nails. Do not use highly alkaline soaps or abrasives. Rinse thoroughly and repeat as monitoring indicates, until the desired degree of decontamination is achieved, but not to exceed 3 or 4 times. 2. If the above procedure is not sufficient to remove the contamination, scrub the hands with a soft brush using a heavy lather and moderately warm water. This scrubbing is primarily to agitate the cleansing agent. Three washes, including rinses, should be made within 8 minutes of which at least. 6 minutes should be devoted to scrubbing. Only Idght pressure should be applied to the brush. Rins* thoroughly and monitor. 6 L_
