>>>Just curios, are they changing gloves between those “love taps”? They could easily pass on virus’ from one person to another ... or are those gloves just to protect them .... hmmm
That right there is a legitimate concern. If I’m ever subject to that type of screening, I’m going to ask when was the last time they changed gloves, and insist they don a fresh pair before they lay a hand on me.
I was reading comments after an article and a person who had supposedly watched a ‘pat’ down said the TSA person told the person ‘patted’ down to wait, then took the gloves and had them scanned/analyzed. Perhaps that means they have the ‘sniffed’ for residue from explosive? But then again maybe they just stick the gloves with the hands still in them in a ‘sniffer’ and if no problem use them on the next person in line.............
