    I wonder how vetted the information is in this thread?
    There are a lot of myths and plain lying going on. Should there be a vetting process in this thread.

    Is there no Rubbing Alcholol available? Put that in a spray bottle for your hands, would suffice. Probably even cut it with water a litte.

    Threshold is for effectiveness is 60%+ alcohol content.

    Here's the fancy way to do it, requires Aloe Vera Gel to thicken it, probably gel substitutes for thickening, too.

    The government and Amazon really shouldn’t need to get involved in this type of thing. The people should take care of this.

    It's the internet. You of all people should know to vet everything you read on the internet.

    Well I know there's definitely been some questionable things but for the most part I think a lot of us have been trying to cite actual science sources or vet things at least before we share.

    I have been to Walgreens, HEB, Kroger and CVS more than once, and all rubbing alcohol is just empty shelves. The same goes with 100% aloe vera gel. So much for make it yourself...lol.

    Honestly, it's lose-lose for us.The right thing to do is the wrong thing for us, and the right thing for us is the wrong thing for everyone else.

    It just sucks, because as one of the largest employers in Houston, thousands may be out of work.

    It just sucks. Your words are appreciated.

    Try your local liquor shop for some everclear or 190 proof grain alcohol.

    Be sure to dilute 91% isopropyl alcohol and everclear with water, as its more effective diluted. It doesnt evaporate as fast and the water lets the alcohol do its job. Plenty of help by googling.
