PHOENIX -- Hand sanitizers have been flying off the shelves even since the swine flu outbreak started, but are all of those sprays and gels really as effective as they claim to be? 3 On Your Side decided to put one product to the test.

I am highly doubtful, especially after our tests, that this product does as it claims. I certainly wouldn't replace washing my hands for it.
I know its old news but it still makes me laugh.
