FACT: Current flu prevention protocol recommended by the government suggests hand sanitizer which is ineffective unless it contains 60% alcohol. Reports are surfacing that indicates young school age children are becoming sick after ingesting some of the hand sanitizer and the high alcohol content is highly flammable which could create a fire hazard in schools.
FACT: A recent study from Cardiff University in Wales found that antibacterial wipes--which hospitals routinely use to disinfect surfaces--spread germs rather than eradicate them. The antibacterial wipes that have emerged as a sanitary status symbol in homes, hospitals, schools, gyms and even grocery stores may not be the ultimate answer in hygiene — and they might even spread, rather than kill, bacteria.
Popular antibacterial wipes may not be as effective in killing germs as many people believe. Researchers from the Welsh School of Pharmacy at Cardiff University in Wales tested the cleaning power of three different types of antibacterial wipes containing either traditional disinfectants, detergents or natural antimicrobial substances, such as those extracted from plants.
A team led by microbiologist Gareth Williams used the wipes to clean surfaces that had been severely contaminated with the notorious bacterium Staphylococcus aureus — including the Methicillin-resistant type known as MRSA, which has become a growing concern in hospitals.
They found use of antibacterial wipes in hospitals, schools, and your bathroom might actually be spreading rather than killing bacteria, and may be contributing to antibacterial resistance.
