Yes. As per the reports, the ideal alcohol concentration level is between 60-95%. Those hand sanitizers that have less than 60% alcohol content are not very effective. So make sure that whichever hand sanitizer you buy, its alcohol concentration is over 60%.

Are there alcohol free hand sanitizers out there and are they effective in killing germs and bacteria if ever there are some?

There are alcohol free hand sanitizers that are effective in killing germs and bacteria. For example, So popular, which kills 99.9% of germs, can be purchased at a place like Wal-Mart.


Most hand sanitizers kill 99.99 percent of germs. What germs are in the .01 percent that hand sanitizers won't kill?

It's the same germs but some survive because of 2 reasons: One, your hand is very good at retaining the bacteria that you eliminate. So if you touch the lid or part of the Hand sanitizer it'll give you bacteria. Another reason is that your hand will always have some bacteria on it, no matter how many times you try and clean your hand.

Why are some people better at video games?

Well, I do admit, some people are better at video games than others. One thing that can effect this is experience in playing video games. Some people are just born with better hand eye than others. There are multiple reasons, but I think the top is hand eye.

Does hand sanitizer kill sickness viruses?

Washing with soap and water is considered the better way to prevent virus transmission, but alcohol-based hand sanitizers are also effective if they contain a minimum of 60% alcohol.According to a recent article published in the February, 2009, issue of Clinical Infectious Diseases, "Efficacy of soap and water and alcohol-based hand-rub preparations against live H1N1 influenza virus on the hands of human volunteers," both hand cleaning techniques were effective in killing H1N1 (a strain of flu) virus on deliberately infected health care workers.A September, 2005, article in Pediatrics, "A randomized, controlled trial of a multifaceted intervention including alcohol-based hand sanitizer and hand-hygiene education to reduce illness transmission in the home," concludes "...alcohol-based hand sanitizers rapidly kill viruses that are commonly associated with respiratory and gastrointestinal (GI) infections."The bottom line is good hand-hygiene helps prevent the spread of both bacteria and viruses. Hand washing with soap and water is slightly more effective than alcohol-based hand sanitizers, but the sanitizers do kill viruses.Bear in mind some viruses are more difficult to kill than others. Disinfecting hard surfaces with a mild bleach-and-water solution also helps reduce the spread of disease.Links to both abstracts in Related Links, below.
