Hand Sanitizer
Hand sanitizer is effective against COVID-19. The best way to prevent the spread of infections and decrease the risk of getting sick is by washing your hands with plain soap and water, advises the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention (CDC). Washing hands often with soap and water for at least 20 seconds is essential, especially after going to the bathroom; before eating; and after coughing, sneezing, or blowing one’s nose. If soap and water are not available, CDC recommends consumers use an alcohol-based hand disinfectant that contains at least 60% alcohol

Alcohol-based disinfectant can quickly reduce the number of microbes on hands in some situations, but sanitizers do not eliminate all types of germs
Although alcohol-based sanitizers can inactivate many types of microbes very effectively when used correctly
hand disinfectants may not be as effective when hands are visibly dirty or greasy. Many studies show that hand sanitizers work well in clinical settings like hospitals, where hands come into contact with germs but generally are not heavily soiled or greasy . Some data also show that hand sanitizers may work well against certain types of germs on slightly soiled hands. However, hands may become very greasy or soiled in community settings, such as after people handle food, play sports, work in the garden, or go camping or fishing. When hands are heavily soiled or greasy, hand sanitizers may not work well. Hand washing with soap and water is recommended in such circumstances.
