Maybe even change clothing. You'd not want to transfer a disease to your pets.
I change my clothes and scrub myself if I touch him. My wife has been taking care of him mostly so that way only one of us is exposed to him. She isn't playing with our pigs while Lenny is here just so we can be sure nothing gets transmitted.
