Because the gloves are mostly pointless, if not making the problem worse. It's better to not touch your face and sanitize your hands. All the cashiers here don't use gloves. They sanitize their hands after every transaction, they wear face masks, plexiglass shield around their station, and there is a limited number of people allowed in the store, with a 1m physical distance between customers enforced. This is the requirement in South-Western Ontario. So far it's working fantastic over here. All decisions have been informed by scientists and experts in their fields.
- wolco 6y ago"They sanitize their hands after every transaction" They use soap and water? Handwipes? That must be killing any skin they have left. Gloves make so much sense for them. They make sense for everyone.
- thisisnico 6y agoThey use hand sanitizer. It contains moisturizer as well. Gloves are scientifically proven not to work unless you replace them after every transaction, additionally most people do not know how to properly remove surgical gloves without contamination.
- wolco 6y agoThat makes sense overall. But they work for the worker who wears them (just not the public). Longer term healthy workers won't be sick and spread as much. Taking off gloves shouldn't be an issue. I would think after a 4 hour shift you would take them off and wash hands because they would be sweaty anyhow and you would smell of rubber.
