Re: Coronavirus (non political)
I wear disposable gloves often doing grimy jobs like handling metal I machine parts out of that are coated with drawing oil, which is as nasty as well used motor oil. It is pretty easy to remove them without letting any contaminated surface touch your bare skin.

Re: Coronavirus (non political)
Well it just hit home. I just got a text from my oldest daughter 33 that she is home sick with a fever, sore throat, cough, and fatigue. She can't get a test because she is in the low risk factor and she is a nurse.

Re: Coronavirus (non political)
I would think nurses would get tested faster. Best wishes for her recovery!!!

Here is the sad part. Her hospital still wanted her to come in not knowing if she could be carrying the virus. The minute they found out she talked to the health dept they told her she had to stay home. |

Re: Coronavirus (non political)
I bought 100 latex gloves and reusable toilet paper from amazon .. basically like a rag that you would use to change a baby, then wash and reuse.
Should I buy more gloves? Should I be at work? I feel like Im in limbo. Is anyone else at work, doing normal work stuff?

Re: Coronavirus (non political)
Gloves are really unnecessary unless you have open wounds or can't stop touching your face

Re: Coronavirus (non political)
I believe it could from a mental stand point for someone who normally does not wear them. You would constantly be reminded of why you have these damn things on your hands. |
