Hand sanitizer is the
latest trend
in drinking for underage teens
Hand sanitizer is the
latest trend in drinking for underage teens, worrying doctors after six young
people were hospitalized with alcohol poisoning in California from drinking the
antibacterial solution to get drunk.
Containing 62 percent ethyl
alcohol, teens are using hand sanitizer as a quick way to get drunk, as the gel
is the equivalent of a shot and a half of hard liquor. The trend has been
evident on YouTube with teens posting video footage of chugging hand sanitizer
cocktails.
According to the
Los Angeles Times, teens used salt to distill the alcohol from the
sanitizers with instructions easily found online, leaving a 120 proof shot stronger
than most whiskeys and vodkas at 80 proof.
All it takes is just a few
swallows and you have a drunk teenager, Dr. Cyrus Rangan of the Children's
Hospital Los Angeles told the Los Angeles Times. There is no question that it
is dangerous. It is kind of scary that they go to that extent to get a shot of
essentially hard liquor.
