Title: FDA Warns Against Certain Hand Sanitizers
Post by: Xairbusdriver on June 23, 2020, 04:46:50 PM
Hand Sanitizers manufactured by Eskbiochem (https://www.fda.gov/drugs/drug-safety-and-availability/fda-advises-consumers-not-use-hand-sanitizer-products-manufactured-eskbiochem)
These products contain Methonol:
Quote
Methanol is not an acceptable ingredient for hand sanitizers and should not be used due to its toxic effects.

Consumers who have been exposed to hand sanitizer containing methanol should seek immediate treatment, which is critical for potential reversal of toxic effects of methanol poisoning. Substantial methanol exposure can result in nausea, vomiting, headache, blurred vision, permanent blindness, seizures, coma, permanent damage to the nervous system or death. Although all persons using these products on their hands are at risk, young children who accidently ingest these products and adolescents and adults who drink these products as an alcohol (ethanol) substitute, are most at risk for methanol poisoning.

Even though the distancing and mask-wearing recommendations are not "mandatory", they are unanimously issued by medical experts. Please consider the source in your heath care "personal decisions".

I greatly respect Anthony Fauci and will follow his advice. As to the government, there's a saying that you should not believe anything unless the government denies it.
