Teens Getting Drunk off of Hand Sanitizer
Many teens are getting drunk and going to the hospital by drinking hand sanitizer. The hand sanitizers are inexpensive and teens can get it anywhere. The liquid hand sanitizer is 62% ethyl alcohol and makes a 120 proof liquid which is like three small shot of hard liquor. A couple drinks can cause a persons speech to slur and their stomach to burn, and make them so drunk that they have to be monitored in the emergency room. Parents are being told to watch to see if their hand sanitizer is disappearing really fast and to watch and see if their kids are getting drunk off of hand sanitizer.
