Many hand sanitizers contain 60–95% alcohol. Swallowing them can cause alcohol poisoning, and serious pediatric cases have included breathing problems, acidosis and coma. Young children are particularly vulnerable because even a small bottle can contain a significant amount of alcohol for their body size.
Keep sanitizer out of reach of young children and supervise its use. It belongs on hands—not in backpacks where small children can freely access it.
“Keep thy heart with all diligence.” — Proverbs 4:23
Ask God to help you notice simple safety risks before an accident happens.
