I never believed in those ‘sanitizers’ seemed a bit too easy to solve all of the germ problems - guess I was right.

Yes, I didn’t actually think about this in terms of bacterial resistance, but it actually seems to be a perfect set up for this. Infectious disease docs are always telling us to avoid using antibiotics inappropriately, as this can induce antibiotic resistance, but no one I’ve heard has ever talked about the same danger from broad use of hand sanitizers. Makes total sense that this would happen.

I’m with you. It’s called marketing.
