All the stores around here no longer have any hand sanitizers. The Bath and Body Works store one day had signs up that they were all sold out of hand sanitizers. They got a shipment in the next day, which were all sold that day!
However on the news last night they said that the medical group that informs and advises us about the Coronavirus stated that it is safer to just us soap and water!

I'm just using soap and water and trying not to touch my face. It's amazing when you pay attention how many times one touches their face during a day. Just propping your face up with your hand under your chin while watching videos or whatever. It happens so often.
I didn't pay much attention to the symptoms and now wish I knew a reliable site to check. I have developed an ear ache and a runny nose. I never get sick because of all the precautions I take so I'm a little concerned.

Yes, hand sanitizers are effective against bacteria, not viruses. It's best to use soap and water.

My son took me shopping on Sunday. All the hand sanitizer was gone. They said that it was gone all week and they were not getting any more. The shelves were empty in every store we went to including a Super Walmart. I heard that people bought it up and are reselling it at very high prices on eBay and other places. They deprived those who need it so they can profit from it.

Always better to just use soap and water. But the hand sanitizer is for when you arent around them. We still have plenty here.

Also here on our country, there is already lack of medical supplies. Because people love to hoard lots of them and sell them at a much higher price ??
