Having read the letter regarding people not using the gel at the entrance to the hospital, I totally and wholeheartedly agree.
I volunteer at the hospital and had cause to "be bold" and challenge someone (quite politely) who walked in ahead of me.
He was obviously more concerned about finding his way for an appointment, and was quite happy to return to gel his hands.
People are obviously concerned with their reason for being there.
Unfortunately, I presume the gelling procedure is on a request basis, but it is not only for the patients' benefit, but also for the benefit of visitors leaving the hospital, not to carry out any germs.
Perhaps volunteers on "sentry duty" would be a good idea.
