I ask because I really wonder about the benefits of protecting me, or others.
OK, the mask is primarily to protect others (unless you have an N95 mask with a vent that protects you only).
But gloves seem to be non-effective, at least to me.
I wash my hands before I leave. I use sanitizer before and after. I don't touch my face when out and about.
IF the virus is there, the gloves WILL become infected. If I touch my face with the glove, it doesn't matter that I have a glove. If I don't take the gloves off very carefully, I can still get infected.
I don't know, but I think some of these precautions are just to make us feel better about doing something.
