Ebola: Price Of Hand Sanitizers Reaches 250% Increase As Scarcity Hit Abuja! by misanho: 4:43pm On Aug 10, 2014
Went to SHOPRITE to buy food at the Deli, and on getting to the counter to make payments, I saw a bottle of sanitisers on the counter, so I decided to pick up the sanitiser for myself -just to be safe as Ebola has become the talk of every gathering in Town, two day later after giving a bottle to a friend and sharing the last of my stock, I went out to get more,on reaching the stores (shop rite, H-medics, and two other superstore) I felt a chill run through my spine, then it dawned on me that hand sanitiser scarcity has hit the Abuja metropolis, what I got two day ago at shoprite, ie. on friday for N270 had now reached N700 today-sunday. Young business men and woman, an opportunity is here again!

Each supermarket in owerri keeps telling me they ran out of hand sanitizers and the way the girls say it with knowing smiles playing on their lips.
I don't think it's funny. embarassed

That's the cause of panicking. One looses his sense of reason when in panic. The Sanitizer is anti-bacterial while Ebola is a viral disease. So what's the correlation? Even with your sanitizer, one can still contact Ebola if exposed to another who's really sick by the virus. A simple washing of the hands properly with soap and water has the same effect as the sanitizer.

Imagine the salt water solution rumour that spread like wild fire on Friday. I received 5 calls as early as 5am, all in the name of encouraging me to bath with and drink salt water solution. What's the correlation between salt and a viral disease like Ebola? My heart goes out to the families of those that lost their loved ones who ingested high quantities of salt solution.
