List of hand sanitizers being recalled by Health Canada growing

The list of hand sanitizers being recalled by Health Canada is growing.

The agency says some hand sanitizers are made with ethanol or denaturants that are not acceptable for use and may pose health risks.

Tuesday’s recall adds 13 more products to the list bringing the total to over 40.
