A group of chemists warned the public on Friday against the use of gasoline as a disinfectant.

'Pinapaalalahanan ng ICP ang lahat na hindi ginagamit ang gasolina upang gawing panlinis o disinfectant ng mga bagay-bagay. Makasasama ito sa tao lalo na kapag nalanghap ang singaw nito (The ICP would like to inform the public that gasoline is neither used for cleaning nor as a disinfectant. This is harmful to people,especially when inhaled),” the Integrated Chemists of the Philippines said in a Facebook post.
