Why Hand Sanitisers Do More Harm Than Good
We re publishing today a new piece by regular contributor and medical historian Dr Irina Metzler questioning the public health wisdom of all this obsessive germ blitzing. Here s a taster.
Hand sanitisers, or hand satanisers as I prefer to dyslexise, are as ubiquitous a part of the pandemic as the masks. Unlike the masks, which will cause mainly individual problems (if you wear a mask, you re restricting your own breathing, not someone else s), hand sanitiser use at the level we ve been seeing for the past 10 months is going to become one helluva headache in the none too distant future. That s because apart from destroying your own, personal microbiome we ve got a bigger picture to consider.

When Reepham painter Kevin Bird started feeling pains in his chest he knew something was wrong.
Mr Bird, who was 61 when it happened, said: My eyes rolled back in my head and I stopped breathing. By the time the ambulance got there I d already gone into cardiac arrest. I don t think I would have made it without them.
