The CDC analyzed data from 2011 and 2014 and found more than 70,000 children younger than 12 years old were ingesting hand sanitizer and even getting it in their eyes.
According to the report, most of those exposures were due to kids drinking the gel.
Older children were more likely to report intentional ingestion, suggesting they might be deliberately misusing it for the alcoholic effects.
