    Walking around Central today. Loads of random places selling hand sanitiser and face masks at hugely inflated prices.

    Finally stock seems to be replenishing. I also saw a bunch of masks and sanitizer in my local pharmacy. Yesterday while I was shopping at the supermarket around noon, the delivery truck came and unloaded their whole cargo of loo rolls by the supermarket's entrance. I was just around the veggies section and noticed a commotion...I still managed to get a package without much fuss.

    Seems like all the paper products were back in stock at the pharmacies in Aberdeen.

Doubt it will sell out anytime soon. A picture of the bottle and its ingredients, below. Next to the Fusion on Queen's Road West in Sheung Wan, across from Pacific Coffee. They also have Dettol floor cleaner in stock, alcohol wipes, and small packages of masks. Also small bottles of alcohol spray for 25 dollars.




    can't read it, I got a bottle from Korea, says kills 99% of germs but doesn't say more than > 70% alcohol

    With alcohol, 99% pure sometimes is worse than 80%. It burns too fast without penetrating...so a mix with water at 70-80% would be more desirable as it penetrates further the skin cells, providing a deeper disinfection. Or at least that's what I've read recently.

    I brought back 2 litres of French-manufactured 3M Nexcare hand sanitizer, it says it is 70% alcohol, kills 99.9%.
