Hand sanitizers are certainly a good idea for anyone that will be attending a large audience event--but the experts caution on avoiding alcohol-based products, as they've become notorious for not only causing dry/irritated skin, but these products have no effectiveness when applied to dirty hands (And one can only guess how clean the hands will be.) In addition the alcohol-based products lose their effectiveness within seconds after application, the only redeeming features is that they can be mixed into soft drinks to create a potent libation, or, because these products are flammable, they could be used as an accelerant for destroying documents . Alternative, alcohol-free, rinse free hand sanitizers have become very popular with infection control experts; leading brands that can be procured at Walmart SuperCenters, Target and online include Soapopular. This product is also fragrance free and dye free, and its 100ml bottles are FAA compliant. This can also be purchased at www.SoapyUSA.com, or at Amazon.com
