In a recent interview on New Jersey news radio station NJ 101.5, Dr. Oz answered the question that we all ask, particularly during a prolific flue season like this one: "Are hand sanitizer and washing hands equally effective?"
This is really scary. Six California teens ended up in an emergency room after drinking hand sanitizer to get drunk according to KTLA. Hand sanitizer is 62 percent ethyl alcohol and 120-proof after distillation. As if parents don't have enough to worry about, now they have to monitor hand sanitizer.
