Keep alcohol-based hand sanitizers out of children’s reach. Teach them how to apply the sanitizer and monitor its use.

Apply a coin-sized amount on your hands. There is no need to use a large amount of the product.

Remember that washing your hands with soap and water is also effective against COVID-19.

Under no circumstance, drink or let children swallow an alcohol-based hand sanitizer. It can be poisonous.

he disease can spread from person to person through small droplets from the nose or mouth which are spread when a person with COVID-19 coughs or exhales.
