We were all issued with hand sanitizers today at work. Considering the shops are all sold out of these, I feel like I have been given a piece of treasure

Soap is much, much more effective. The CDC essentially said “fuck hand sanitizer, get yo ass some soap.”

3 more deaths from coronavirus in Washington. It’s sounds like it’s ripping through a nursing home

The real gold is when you get your hands on some boxes of cigarettes. When all hell breaks loose, they're gonna be worth an absolute fortune when those addicts 'need' to smoke

Yes it is but let's face it, you can't always have a bar of soap and water handy with you at all times... hence why hand sanitizers are all the rage

 

The ironic thing is, my skin cracks up when I use alcohol-based hand sanitizers so I'll stick to the soap and water

Still no signs of corona here, but we have 700+ cases of dengue so it balances out?

Seriously, 2020 has already managed to be infinitely worse than 2019 somehow. If Tokyo2020 gets cancelled this officially be my least favorite year.

As far as I understand hand sanitizer is anti-bacterial and we are dealing with a virus, so I don't think it would have any effect?

That's right, but people are panicked and don't think logically...
