Hand Sanitizer

[timvolley]

I haven't checked but I do think it is crazy how people are hoarding the hand sanitizer or charging an enormous amount for it.

[makeblessed]

Every place seems to be sold out of hand sanitizer! I did find in one of our local supermarkets so I just picked up two bottles as I know others are looking for the same; also went to Body and Bathworks in the mall; they had plenty at that time and were running a special so I got the maximum amount for the special. Hopefully stores and pharmacies will be getting in soon as their is high demand right now!

I don't think people even know what hoarding means. If people buy it and use it they are not hoarding it. I have not seen any stores charging insane amounts.

I don't know what happened this weekend but our Walmart was sold out of a ton of stuff (or so I heard) I did not go up there. They have plenty of all the items that were emptied from the shelves last night. I checked the stock online. People don't know what is going to happen so I can't blame them for wanting to be prepared.  But if you are not going to leave your home you do not need a ton of Clorox, sanitizers, or other cleaning agents other than what you normally would have.

I haven't checked the stores for it recently but I keep it stocked in our office because my coworkers love it. Personally, I don't use it because of how it makes my hands feel; I'd rather wash my hands.

If I had the emojis I would be inserting one for rolling eyes here.  smh  You can't wash your hands every time you touch something.  And this does not absorb through your hands so washing your hands is not going to keep you from getting an air borne illness.  I wash my hands as well.  So do most people.  But there are times you do not have access and using sanitizer is an added plus.  And saying don't touch your face is stupid too.  You don't even realize how many times you do it.

Here you go: 

Haha! I didn't say nor insinuate that anyone would be able to wash their hands every time they touch something. I just said I'd rather wash my own... I'm glad you wash yours, too.  And obviously there are times where hand sanitizer comes in handy which is why I said I still buy it.

And it doesn't seem like you know, but you can still contract an airborne illness by touching surfaces where the virus has landed.

Also, I didn't mention anything about not touching your face so have at it if you want. I honestly don't care what you do.

Thank you for the recipe to make hand sanitizer, we live in the country so I usual keep alll those thing stocked for the winter.

[darkxtsuna]

My family basically panic bought a few boxes of it before stores went empty in my area.

The point is that is all every body is screaming. Wash your hands. Wash your hands. My point is this does not absorb through your hands so 'washing your hands' will not prevent you from getting this.  It is airborne. Do you even know what that means? Obviously most do not because they do not seen to grasp it.

I actually know quite a bit about it.  I would venture to say more than you.  I am glad that talking down to me makes you feel better about yourself. lol  It is pathetic that people cannot have a conversation with out getting all butt hurt and trying to fight.

Here is the reality - this world is out of control and things are bad and getting worse. We can swim together or we can sink together. And unfortunately we are going to sink.

Nor will hand sanitizer prevent you from contracting the virus. These are all just steps to be preventative and slow down the transmission rate. Do you think people are expecting the soap and/or hand sanitizer to sink into their skin and fight the virus like an antibody or vaccine?

And yes, I know what airborne means (transported by air). But you clearly still don't understand that airborne particles eventually must land/settle. Settle, for instance, on a surface - an object, skin or whatever you wish to imagine. Yes, some viral particles may settle into your body when you breathe them in, but other "respiratory droplets" might also land on said surfaces that come in contact with someone's hands/skin. And you've mentioned before that people touch their faces so there are many easy entry points (mainly eyes, nose & mouth) for any virus. That's where hand washing and hand sanitizers come in to play to help mitigate its spread. It's quite apparent you feel you know more than I do on the subject (which frankly wouldn't matter to me if you actually somehow do).

LMAO! You must be hurt that I responded and didn't just conform to your opinion if you think this is me talking down to you and "trying to fight." I simply responded to each comment you made as you failed at trying to educate me on my own post. Honestly, why comment on someone's post if you're going to overreact and feel attacked when they issue a response?

And it's not likely that everyone will take precautions so if we "sink" so be it. But like I said, I'd rather wash my hands. 

[nmbrown863]

I have a few bottles here. I am not sure if my stores are sold out or not.

[timvolley]

im not surprised i haven't looked but im sure this is the same thing most places as people are hoarding these supplies

I clearly understand it better than you.  And I clearly am not an Ahole that has to insult people to feel superior.

I am not trying to "educate you" on anything.  I simply state the truth.  I could care less what you believe or what you do.  Doesn't effect me whatsoever because you are not in my area nor my life.  So if you get this or you die from it - again it won't effect me.  And yes, you clearly (since you seem to love that phrase) are trying to fight.

And again, I could turn what you say to me around on you.  Why comment on my post if you are just going to be offended and tell me everything I say is wrong.  I have not over reacted to anything.  Simply as you said responded to comments. 

The point is "washing your hands" is not going to keep you from getting this.  Or anything else for that matter.  If it is airborne then just breathing in the vicinity of people who have whatever it is will put you at risk.

No, you thought you were going to teach me a thing or 2 by saying washing your hands isn't going to keep you from getting this illness because it's airborne. You clearly don't understand the issue better than I do because you don't understand the term airborne yourself like you've claimed. I made an initial comment about my preferences and you decided to insert yourself. It's not that hard to understand: you responded on my post, so I responded back. What do they say about if you can't take the heat? And just because someone insinuates you're wrong how does that mean they're offended? 

I can't help that you're so fragile that you were offended by me replying to your initial comments. I guess you don't remember or didn't care to reread what you wrote but you brought up fighting (which I'm failing to see from my end. Simply just responding on a point by point basis). Now you're echoing what I said earlier - I don't care. And you honestly shouldn't either. You can continue to project all you want. Have at it! I just don't want you to disillusion yourself into thinking your "truths" are facts. Also, you don't know if I'm in your area or not; we never discussed our locations. But if I get sick or die, so be it. Same with you. Life will go on.

And it's ignorant to think that you speak the truth. No, these are your opinions. You are evidently one of those people that doesn't understand that we each have these and like to try force yours onto others. That won't work with me. And you are clearly no expert on this seeing that you don't even understand airborne transmission. I suggest at least looking up the CDC basic webpage for Corona Virus and maybe they'll be able to detail what I'm saying in a way you'll be able to understand because I won't continue to try and explain it to you. You keep ignoring what I said and inserting your "truths" regardless.

But this is the internet, learn to let people have opinions. And don't be so sensitive. 

[pectacon]

Toilet paper and paper towel shelves are bare in every store in town where I live thanks to panic buying. And we're almost out of TP. I hope we don't have to get creative.

Most people don't even need hand sanitizer. Just wash your hands! They say the sanitizer is not even as effective as a hand wash.

No you are being stupid.  I did not think I was going to teach you anything.  Could not care less what you know.

And I am not offended by you.  You are nothing to me.  Could not care any less what you do or what you think.  It is a public forum.  Don't post if you don't want people to comment back.

And yes, I can pretty much guarantee you are not in my area.

Hopefully after your little tell me off rant LOL you feel better.  What I said IS the truth.  Believe it or don't.  Not going to sit and argue with you.  Because I do not care.  Go kiss somebody that has this virus.  And then wash your hands and you should be fine.
