Hand sanitizers are now one of the saviors in the Coronatras environment.  Even a few months ago, manufacturers or sellers could not have imagined that the demand would skyrocket overnight.  But you know, before that, soap and water were the main reliance of people to keep their hands clean.  But it was not always possible to clean hands with soap and water in hospital work.  Other than that, the job seemed to take a lot of time, said Lupi Hernandez, a nursing student.  Although water or soap was scarce, Lupi's main goal was to disinfect his hands in the rush.  The hand sanitizer was born out of this need.  Not much is known about him.

 In 1966, Lupi was a nursing student in Bakersfield, USA.  Bakersfield, 100 miles north of Los Angeles on the west coast of the United States, is named after Colonel Thomas Baker.  He started settling in this region in the nineteenth century.  Following him leads to settlement here.

 As a result, 'Bakers Field' means the area of ​​the unemployed.  Sanitizers were discovered in this city rich in fuel oil, natural gas and agriculture.  Which can be called a revolutionary discovery in the light of the recent situation.

 Lupi thought that alcohol could be an alternative if he did not have soap and hot water at hand.  It occurs to him that if alcohol can be presented in the form of a gel, then what?

 In order to implement his ideas, he contacted organizations that help with patents.  He found them on a television program.  Lupi registered the patent through them.

 Forty-four years ago, Lupi could not have imagined that his discovery would one day be the only recourse to a world terrified of germs.  However, at first, its use was not known at all among the general public.  Hand sanitizers were then used by people in the public health department, including doctors and nurses.

 Gradually, hand sanitizers were introduced in the US military.  Its use among the general public in the United States and Europe increased rapidly in 2009.  During the H1N1 epidemic.

 In the age of free economy, it did not take long for hand sanitizers to be introduced in the Indian market.  Hand sanitizers gradually became essential in women's handbags.  Studies have shown that it is more common in women than men.

 The demand for liquid soap and hand sanitizer in the world market has increased by 400 percent due to the corona.  However, health experts still say that viscous sanitizer lags far behind any soap in disinfecting.

 But there is no way to use soap without water.  So where there is no water, sanitizer is not an option.  As a result, its unknown and forgotten discoverer has come up again in the discussion.  The modern world of the twenty-first century is afraid of kneeling germs in gratitude to a nursing student half a century ago.
