COVID-19 is Over But Cop These Best Hand Sanitisers in Singapore, JIC
Yuck, germs!
By: Astrid Zulhaime / March 25, 2024
This is a PSA: just because COVID-19 is no longer on the rise, that’s no excuse to neglect personal hygiene. Being in public places, known to be a hot spot for germs, is just as much of a health risk as it was back in 2020. Whenever you’re out and about, make it a point to wash your hands with soap and water as often as you can. If that’s too much of a hassle for you, the CDC stated that using an alcohol-based hand sanitiser with at least 60% alcohol is just as effective. So keep these best hand sanitisers in Singapore on you at all times.
