WHY ONE SHOULD CHOOSE SANITIZERS OVER SOAPS!

Ever since this pandemic struck, we all are cautious about our health safety. Nowadays we only focus on how to maintain hygiene and social distancing. In current scenario Sanitizers, Disinfectants and soaps play a big role in everyone’s life. These are the only alternatives we all are having as prevention from coronavirus. Before corona, we were only depend on soaps but suddenly we all switched from soaps to sanitizers.

Had ever we thought about, which is more beneficial for us? Why sanitizers suddenly overtook soaps? How can we say that sanitizers are better than soap? And what is the difference between sanitizer and soap? There are many questions like this we never thought of.

How Soap works?
Regular soap, regardless of the ingredients, is designed to separate dirt, grease and whatever else on your skin from your skin.
“Regular soaps don’t necessarily kill bacteria, germs and viruses as much as they simply help you wash them off your skin”. According to researchers soap can effectively deactivate a virus by removing the greasy coating the virus uses to bind to human cells; others say soap actually forces open the envelopes of a virus, or dissolves the membrane, so it spills its guts. Either way, the bubbles of soap, along with vigorous scrubbing of all parts of your hands and fingers, lift viruses (and other germs) from your skin so they can be rinsed down the drain.
Scrubbing and rinsing are vital steps we all do daily. It does not matter if you use hot or cold water when you wash with soap. According to researchers only 5% of people wash their hands properly.

How alcohol-based hand sanitizers work?
Hand sanitizers work in a different way, by exploding the outer coating of viruses (and who doesn’t want to explode some coronavirus right now?). These nasty germs, which technically are never really alive—they have to invade your cells to reproduce—become totally dead when you hand-sanitize them. Or at least that’s the idea.

The key is to use sanitizers that contain at least 60% alcohol, the minimum threshold at which they’re known to fly off store shelves.

Thing is, hand sanitizers are not as effective as proper scrubbing with soap and water. In fact, we don’t know exactly how effective the sanitizers are, because lab tests are typically done by companies that make hand sanitizers and the results are not made public, plus it all depends largely on whether you slather plenty on and rub it all over until it’s dry, per the directions. Even so, your hands will still be covered with grease and grime (and a bunch of hopefully totally dead corona viruses). But yes, you can expect some level of protection.

To protect yourself use sanitizer. You can know more about hand sanitizer in the below link:  https://bit.ly/TrustHPC
