Wet wipes are what they give you if you might get your fingers greasy and you CAN'T get to an actual sink with soap and water We all know that they're not as good, though, just more convenient That's all hand sanitizer is, convenience

Only other real advantage of alcohol over soap and water is for cleaning things that shouldn't get wet, like your phone Which is a *disadvantage* for your hands, where the alcohol can leave them all dried out (hence sanitizer is alcohol + moisturizer)

I didn't read the quoted tweet and was like --oh I know this one! Put water in it and on stove. Heat will melt it right down. I suppose that's just a fever but much much higher then possible for a fever.

You don’t need to “clean” the surface with viruses on it as long as the alcohol has gotten everywhere and had time to destroy it. Proper use of a sanitizer is an effective way of killing germs that’s used in health care when hand washing is impractical.

I find a little strong rubbing alcohol better at removing grease that’s been allowed to congeal over time and get stubborn, but I get your point.

Isn't hand sanitizer simply for times when you DON'T have access to soap?
