The problem with hand hygiene has always been that no one ever knows when their hands have become contaminated by any dangerous microbes.  Washing hands with soap and water or cleaning with alcohol gels has always been good advice, but both are limited in that they provide no ongoing protection.  Without the ongoing protection that Q shield offers, there is no real protection – worse still in the case of alcohol gels, a recent study 76% of people using alcohol gels thought that the gels gave lasting protection.  This could be dangerous if people believe they are protected, it may mean they do not take as many precautions, stop washing hands etc.  In fact once the alcohol has evaporated there is no residual effect, if it has evaporated too quickly it may not have killed all the microbes on your hands (depends on the air temperature and amount used), in which case your hands will begin to re colonise immediately, if you are lucky enough to have killed all microbes, as soon as you touch anything else that is colonised, your hands will pick up the microbes and they will start to multiply.

The best defence against microbes including flu viruses on hands is to have the long term effect given by Q shield.  That means regular treatment of safe persistent agents that will keep hands free of microbes.  This advice is particularly important for people such as pregnant women and children, in fact anyone who is at particular risk from the Swine Flu virus.  Until recently soap and water and alcohol gels were the best and only option, however there is now Q shield which lasts 24 hours.  This new  skin sanitizer provides real protection provided it is used regularly and at the recommended intervals will give long lasting real protection.  Q Shield has proven to be more effective than regular use of alcohol gels, is safer to store and causes less problems than alcohol gels.  Q Shield is more cost effective than alcohol gels in use and will kill microbes for up to 24 hours providing protection against re infection from touching contaminated surfaces for all that time.
