Using medical history, many patients said that in the past few days, they have used disinfectant solutions bought floating on the market or used homemade solutions to disinfect hands to prevent Covid-19. It is not possible to confirm whether 100% is caused by the use of rapid hand sanitizer by the patient because clinical or specific testing is required, but the use of floating products, of unknown origin, has not been confirmed. tested by authorities can affect the skin of the hands and increase the risk of disease.

With alcohol-based hand sanitizers, if the alcohol concentration is too low (below 60 degrees), there is no bactericidal effect or poor bactericidal effect. Meanwhile, if the alcohol concentration is too high (90 degrees), it will coagulate and clot the protein layer on the surface of bacteria and viruses, reducing the bactericidal effect. Although alcohol-based disinfectants have a bactericidal effect, long-term use will cause dryness and peeling of the skin of the hands.
