"Furthermore, there is actually no conclusive evidence that hand sanitizers provide a degree of protection from the flu that is any greater than is provided through regular hand washing, proper sneezing/coughing etiquette and choosing to stay home when sick."
The mission of MCS America (MCSA) is to propagate medical, legal, and social recognition for multiple chemical sensitivity (MCS) as a disorder of organic biological origin induced by toxic environmental insults; to provide support and referral services to the individuals with all illnesses of environmental origin; and to ensure that environmental toxicants are identified, reduced, regulated, and enforced through lobbying for effective legislation. © MCS America
