Hand sanitiser withdrawn from sale because it could be 'ineffective' against coronavirus

A hand sanitiser sold in Australian stores has been withdrawn from sale after it was found it might not contain enough alcohol to kill coronavirus.The consumer group said it will test a range of products to make sure they are safeConsumer group Choice said a hand sanitiser product sold by Mosaic Brands returned a result of 23 per cent alcohol.

The brand confirmed they had temporarily withdrawn the Air Clean Instant Hand Sanitiser from sale to undergo further testing, but disputed Choice's claims that the alcohol level was "far below what would have been effective against COVID-19". "In any market where there's significant demand but not very clear regulation about the nature of the products, there's a risk that some products would enter the market that are substandard."

Responsible reporting would have led with 'Choice finds....' not 'Hand sanitiser withdrawn from sale'. Just saying. Mixed messaging and all that.
