Sorry to hound you since reading your question. But, it got me on a search for the truth lol. Anyway, here’s an FDA page regarding the research. After triclosan or triclocarban We’re viewed as unhealthy, companies started using benzalkonium chloride, benzethonium chloride or chloroxylenolinst instead. suppose that’s when the FDA stepped in.

I get the spray stuff at the farm stand. Basically alcohol with a bit of clove and eucalyptus extract.
instead of going nuts, the best precaution is to act as if anyone around you may be “sick” (like many of us do during regular Flu season) and refrain from casual skin to skin contact, try to keep distance from anyone who coughs/sneezes, and wash your dang hands before picking your nose.
Seems like many thrive on the extra angst...kind of like their own ‘sick’ adventure.
The trouble is that, like with the Commandments, nobody seems to be able to follow a few simple rules...because they have lit their own hair on fire and are too busy running amok.
I agree
Not just pneumonia, but poo monia!
That’s some serious s—t!
“If Ted Cruz infects you, will you have the Canadian Flu?”
Or Cuban flu...?
What’s the difference?
The ones labeled antibacterial contain chemicals. There are reports that these chemicals are making bacteria’s resistant to antibiotics. Plus, those chemicals are just not healthy.
Alcohol kills the germs. But, that’s it. It does not create any anti-biotic resistant effects.
Thank you for the explanation
