Yup, gotta clean all those bacteria off your hands to avoid a virus, right? Just use hand soap. It's more effective. (yes I know alcohol still kills the virus, but buying hand sani isn't necessary when we already have a more effective tool at pretty much every sink)
- CommieBobDole 7y agoI have to ask, why do you assume that people are using hand sanitizer instead of washing their hands? In the case of a pandemic, I would like to disinfect my hands mostly in places where there is no access to running water. Like, in my car after being in a public place, or at my desk. This feels like the coronavirus-related version of that infamous Stack Exchange response where you say "I must do (thing) because of these requirements, what's the best way to do it" and people respond with "Don't do (thing), do (other thing which is arguably better but does not satisfy the requirements)"
- illumanaughty 7y agoSorry, just being an asshole. Using sanitizer in those situations makes perfect sense.
- post_break 7y agoI wash my hands, but I can't when I'm getting gas, driving around, sitting at my desk and someone brings mail, people touch my door handles, etc etc. The idea that sanitizer replaces soap is dumb, but the idea that washing hands makes sanitizer is dumb too.
- illumanaughty 7y agoPoint taken, I was wrong.
