In that spirit, the “ Fighting Germs ” contest is here to not only reward that innovation ─ but also give to other charities for those attempting the same thing! It’s fun, it’s beneficial.&amp;nbsp...en-USTelligent Community 12https://community.element14.com/challenges-projects/project14/fightinggerms/b/blog/posts/large-companies-are-taking-measures-to-help-fight-the-pandemicThu, 14 May 2020 10:47:52 GMT93d5dcb4-84c2-446f-b2cb-99731719e767:d8f73451-84f1-4be5-a6a1-221e72442676dubbie0<p>I was aware of drinks manufacturers making hand sanitisers as our local gin distillery was giving away free sanitiser with every bottle of gin. We already had gin so didn&#39;t purchase. I did a tour of the distillery once and one thing was to taste neat alcohol (I have no idea what percentage alcohol it was, but it was high) as used in the gin making process, by dipping a finger in and tasting it. The guide said there was no need to worry about germs from other &#39;finger dippers&#39; as the alcohol killed everything immediately. Kind of puts you off drinking.</p><p>&nbsp;</p><p>Having said that, I have not been able to purchase any hand sanitiser since the pandemic began, there just isn&#39;t any for sale. I just have to use soap.</p><p>&nbsp;</p><p>Dubbie</p><img src="https://community.element14.com/aggbug?PostID=9311&AppID=257&AppType=Weblog&ContentType=0" width="1" height="1">
