I think having the hand sanitizers in public restrooms is a great idea. Although, like you said, it is not a huge breakthrough, I believe something as small as this could really help. People who stop into fast food restaurants are often in somewhat of a hurry, and the hand sanitizer is an effective way to clean your hands without taking up more than a few seconds of your time. Another interesting thing I have seen recently with public restrooms is the installation of the "open the door with your arm" levers. I have no idea what these things are really called, but the concept is that you do not have to use your hands to open the door. This prevents you from picking up germs from other people, and you no longer have to open the door with your shirt, paper towel, or whatever you use to avoid touching that public restroom door handle. These may be minor improvements in the grand scheme of public health, but in my opinion improving the cleanliness of public bathrooms is always a good step.
