Hand Sanitizer
Saturday, October 15, 2011 at 11:06AM It has been found out and verified by snopes.com that "hand sanitizers" are very dangerous when ingested. A child known to have licked her hand with the sanitizer on them, was rushed to the Emergency Room with symptoms of being severely lethargic and incoherent. All blood work and x-rays and other tests were normal. But in the long run, the child was rushed to another hospital where a blood alcohol level test was taken. Her blood alcohol level was at 85%, six hours after the first ER visit.
It only takes about 3 squirts of the sanitizer to be fatal to a toddler. For the child's size, it would be equal to drinking 120% proof liquor. So Please, Please don't disregard this information. ~ The internet does provide more information on this subject.
