I am sure you all already know this...but it is such a bizarre story that I had to share. So I just read an article about a prison inmate being hospitalized for drinking hand sanitizer gel. Yes, it does contain alcohol, but not the same kind found in alcoholic beverages. The other inmates reported that they saw the man drinking from a "gallon container of Purell hand sanitizer."
