Disinfectant Wipes Vs Hand Sanitizer

If you can have both in your bag or pockets then that would be ideal. Both can work in tandem with each other. However, if you have to choose just one, the disinfectant wipes would be better. Both are great disinfectants; they actually kill germs. However, in the case of disinfectant wipes, these actually remove the germs in your hands. They can also disinfect surfaces and other items like your cellphone.

However, the downside of the disinfectant wipes is if there are no garbage bins around. You can’t just keep it in your pocket or bag—you need to dispose of it. This is where the advantage of the hand sanitizer lies. You can just whip it out and clean your hands with it. Make sure the sanitizer has at least 60% alcohol.

In this time of the COVID-19 pandemic, it is important that people practice proper hygiene and regularly disinfect their living spaces. There is no vaccine against the novel coronavirus, which causes COVID-19, and there is no treatment for COVID-19. So the best thing a person can do right now is to arm themselves with hand sanitizer or rubbing alcohol, disinfectant wipes, face mask and goggles.
