Hippocratic oath must be window dressing these days.
I simply don't believe you.
That would imply that you spend almost an hour per day washing your hands if you are following proper hand hygiene.
With twin infants and a toddler, I'm pretty sure you simply don't have that kind of time in a day.
Personally, I rinse my hands (i.e. with only water) pretty frequently, but only wash with soap when the occasion calls for it (when arriving home, when my hands are greasy, or after sitting at the toilet), which probably averages 2-3 times per day.
On a separate note, my family doctor used some kind of antiseptic and moisturizing lotion on his hands. He said the antiseptic would tend to dry the skin, so adding a moisturizing element to it was a genius idea and whoever came up with it was probably making millions.
