Distilleries are using alcohol on tap to make hand sanitizer to combat the coronavirus

We all know the advice: Wash your hands often with soap and water to prevent the spread of the coronavirus. When you can't, use hand sanitizer.But actually finding hand sanitizer anywhere is another story. Bottles of Purell and other sanitizers are few and far between on store shelves, and if you do manage to come across a solution with at least 60% alcohol, chances are it has a hefty price tag.Why we can't find hand sanitizerEnter liquor distilleries.

We will be making a post next week to keep you updated once we have more available. Thank you for your understanding and we'll see you next week! If you would like to donate to help us make more for our community we now have a link in our bio available. But even that has run out.Old Fourth Distillery's solution has been so popular that by Saturday, its supply of homemade sanitizer had been cleared out.

Sign me up for some Hennessy Sanitizer when it hits the shelves.

Meanwhile CNN Network continually plays to the Negativity, bashing an Administration and Pandemic team that is working 20+hrs a day on everything from Supplies to logistics to Manufacturing support and beyond.......🙄

Thank you so much

patrikoksanen This is happening in Sweden as will. A large destillery normaly Making Vodka now is delivering large amounts of 96% alkohol to factorys that makes sanitizer for the health care system.

👍good to know that amidst the chaos some people are still utilizing their brains

MSMWatchdog2013 How many ill-informed or otherwise ignorant folk will try to make cocktails with this stuff?

What a waste of good booze

Well, what do people think is in hand sanitizer? ALCOHOL!

Except they are still subject to federal excise tax, so they can't sell it for sane prices. Without government, who would stifle free-market solutions to emergencies with taxes and regulations?

The epidemic is very serious. This is not a political issue. Every minute is infected and someone dies. When you laugh at China sacrificing the economy to control the epidemic, American politicians sacrificed their own people for the sake of the economy! And justified!

As mentiras de trump não têm limite, e ele desperdiça dois meses para deixar a epidemia fora de controle, onde as celebridades podem priorizar os testes e tratamentos sem sintomas, enquanto apenas os pobres, os idosos e a população em geral são eliminados.

Our States could be encouraging and doing this also.

Hiram Walker distillery in Windsor Ontario is doing the same ... free foe Windsorites and TTC in Toronto. Grateful !

Good old capitalism at work!...but anyway whatever it takes to keep people safe

MattGaetz has his own Distillery that he‘s Quarantined himself in and it seems to work for him thus far...

Good Job

Thank you Mr. president for the leadership, finally.

Beautiful 😘

The microbes living in my home make plenty alcoho from garbagel. You killed yours just to kill germs? Boy are you messed up;

Wheresdamachine I use cola as a hand sanitizer I lick my hands

sipsmith any chance our next Sipping Society delivery will feature hand sanitizer?

They are using diff alcohol I think. One alcohol, the other alcohol denat

Biz Türkler yıllardır kullanıyoruz evimize ilk gelen kişiye dökeriz ellerine. Wc den çıkarken. Yemek yedikten sonra dökeriz yemekten önce ellerimizi yıkarız.

American corporations are fantastic!!! All pitching in:))

TP, alcohol, sanitizer and possibly zombie tool ready 🦠👍🏻👍🏻

Great effort and truly ingenuity!! Humans will prosper!

Americans are entrepreneurial. Well done!

You think I’m using my single barrel 9yo bourbon to wash my hands? I’d rather die from the virus.

Bacardi and Serrales in PR were the firts to do it!!

I’m drinking both just to be safe

No one tell Nancy Pelosi that!

Do they actually know how to make it, though?
