The following is the latest available list of all the potentially toxic sanitizers, according to the FDA:
Sometimes soap and water aren’t readily available.
After one gets gas, goes to the store or to a medical facility, they need to wash their hands. Unfortunately, toting around enough soap and water to do the job isn’t very practical. Hand sanitizer (HS) on the other hand, is quite portable. One can easily have a bottle of HS waiting inside their car. A quick squirt, 30 seconds of rapid hand rubbing, and presto, most germs are gone. It doesn’t replace soap and water, but it’s better than nothing.
Because of portability of HS, establishments can keep bottles of it around for their customers and employees. Using a public restroom to wash in soap and water might not be too sanitary (how long since it was cleaned? Who used it in the meantime?). HS to the rescue!
Just before this thing went down, I bought 2 very large bottles of HS from Safeway. I also have several other large bottles round the house (all from Safeway) that are ¼ to ¾ full a. Since 1987, I’ve always carried a medium-sized bottle of HS in my car. I use these larger bottles to refill it. Car steering wheels are a magnet for germs and dirt. Not everyone who works out there washes their hands after they use the restroom (that bugged the heck out of me at work). So after you shop or stop to grab a bite to eat (like a drive-through), it’s nice to have HS in the car (yeah, I’m a bit of a germaphobe).
I’ve heard conflicting reports on how long this thing lasts on surfaces. Most say that it lasts less time on slick, non-porous surfaces such as metal and glass (few hours), but longer on porous surfaces such as cardboard (up to 3 days).
Yes, churchgoers are told not to sing. When I hear about churches suing the government to be able to sing, or say they’ll disobey any “order” prohibiting them from singing, I have to shake my head in utter disbelief. It just shows that they, like trump, only use their bible for show. Sure, they may know the words, but they don’t understand the meaning behind them. God said to love Him and other people. That’s His only “law”. Everything else the bible says is simply a reiteration of this one commandment. Jesus lived this commandment. Love is putting other people ahead of oneself. Jesus put us ahead of Himself when He died for us. These churches are putting themselves first, not others. They only want to uphold their traditions, not Gods command. Forgive my “lecture”.
