What happens if you try to make hand sanitizer from booze to fight coronavirus?


What happens when you try to make your hand sanitizer with stuff you got from BevMo? Columnist Lucas Kwan Peterson sat down with science writer Amina Khan and a bottle of the strongest stuff available in the state of California: 151-proof rum. The result? Even with a bottle that's over 75% booze, a resulting hand sanitizer made with liquor and aloe vera gel won't have enough alcohol in it to meet the CDC threshold. Just wash your hands instead.
