Oregon distillery is making its own in-house hand sanitizer and giving it away

Distilleries are stepping in to help combat the hand sanitizer shortage by using the alcohol in their facilities to create their own alcohol-based solutions. CNN's Don Lemon speaks with Jon Poteet and Ryan Ruelos, co-owners of Shine Distillery & Grill, about their efforts in Portland, Oregon. #CNN #News

    1. @Anything Everything its still a good reason to give out the medal than givin it to a racist dying piece of $hit like limbaugh

    2. @2112Nightshift So let me get this straight you believe everything the democrat want to do will help with the virus? No, it doesn’t. Moron.

    1. Uncle Ed let democrats alone .You pray and go in self isolation.I will pray if you believe on Lord and you trust on your lord than Almighty will accept your words and will cure you.Stay blessed.

  1. Does sanitizer eliminate viruses? I carry some with me in the car so I can use it after touching the ATM but wasn’t sure if it helps.

    1. @Anurania… VERY GOOD QUESTION: SANITIZERS?? NOT UNLESS THEY HAVE A VERY HIGH ALCOHOL CONTENT 80-90% AS I UNDERSTAND IT. THEY ONLY “INACTIVATE VIRUSES” …BUT WILL KILL CERTAIN “BACTERIA”. BUT BETTER THAN NOTHING AT ALL…

      FYI: ACTUALLY, LIQUID SOAP+H20+REG HOUSEHOLD BLEACH (MIXED IN “PROPER PROPORTIONS”) WILL KILL EVERYTHING (DEFINITELY NOT FOR USE ON SKIN/HANDS). WE/I USE TO USE IT ON HARD SURFACES (NOT METAL AS IT IS VERY CORROSIVE) WHEN I WAS IN DENTISTRY (Clinical Instructor for 40 yrs….years ago) WE USED IT TO KILL BACTERIA AND DEFINITELY WHEN HIV/HEPATITIS A, B, C WAS THE MAJOR ISSUE…AND BEFORE OTHER BETTER CHEMICALS FINELY CAME OUT. WE/I RUINED MANY INSTRUMENTS AND METAL SURFACES AS THE BLEACH “CORRODES” RIGHT THROUGH IT IF LEFT IN CONTACT TOO LONG. WE SPRAYED IT ON A COTTON PAD 4″x 4″ or 6”x 6″ AND “WIPED SURFACES ONLY” (WITH GLOVES ON AND A FACEMASK) I NEVER MISTED and/or SPRAYED IT INTO THE AIR. IT SHOULD REMAIN ON THOSE SURFACES “WET” FOR AT LEAST 10 -15 MINUTES…. TO BE EFFECTIVE…HOPE THAT HELPS. STAY HEALTHY AND SAFE AND LISTEN TO THE MEDICAL COMMUNITY – NOT TRUMP !!!

  2. Now those are some *REAL* Americans. Bravo! Gentlemen I Salute You With Awesomeness!
    👏 👐 👍 👌 ✊

  3. Mind you they didn’t have to do that, so good for them. Thank you. The WHO also has a recipe to make hand sanitizer.

  4. In BC 6 hour drive up north
    our local breweries are doing the same for the community! Keep up the good work boys and gals!

    1. But the border is closed. So, I’m glad a company from my city stepped up. And it’s only six hours if you hit the border at 3 am or have a Nexxus pass.

    2. IMPORTANT: In order to avoid too large crowds because of the feared Corona virus, there are new rules. Republicans vote on 3rd of November, while Democrats vote on 4th of November. The innaguration of Trump will not be moved according to those new rules.
      *#NewRules*

    3. Nah, we’ll be out in droves with gloves and n95s if need be to vote him out so the SDNY can lock him up. You have no say in this.

  5. Wow this is cool may God bless my two brothers up there 👆 this guy’s are the best 🙏🏽🙏🏽🙏🏽 I feel so blessed to be in Portland Oregon it’s the best city and most peaceful 💪😅

  6. After all this pandemic done, I wanna know if they do international delivery for liquor. That’s heart-warming.

  7. you can’t wait for the government to do their jobs, they don’t care about the people
    only people care about the people

  8. Many breweries and distilleries all over the country are doing this. I’ve seen/read stories from Michigan, Pennsylvania, Georgia, Florida, Texas and Nebraska…now Oregon. Very cool. 👍

  9. Lemon seemed totally disinterested. I guess this story isn’t as tantalizing as say, Harvey Weinstein testing positive.

  10. Pelosi and the Democrats are evil, they blocked the relief bill a second time, trying to ram the socialist evil down America’s throat.
    Stop the evil, never vote Dim again.
