@sueinmn @irenea8 @cwal I want to try to avoid the Flu, RSV, Covid, Virus, Cold etc. etc. or anything to add to what is already there, the BE and routine and all that goes along with it, and then having to "cure" another illness. Other than Covid Feb. 2024 I haven't had any of the others recently or in years. I am fortunate overall.

Truth be, I must wash my hands fifty times a day but in thinking of all to do with visiting in a hospital the hand washing didn't flash in my mind........ but it would have once I arrived to the front door of the hospital. Probably because I thought of glove wearing.

I appreciate hearing all and will keep all in mind.

@blm1007blm1007 Handwashing & hand sanitizer are both better than gloves. That's why it is the first line of defense for medical personnel. Gloves are reserved for when they will be exposed to blood and other body fluids or in a sterile setting.
