My wife and I put on gloves when we leave the house, except for walks around the neighborhood for exercise, and dispose of them when we return. Plus we're both retired. I'm dead if I contract CoVid-19 and it moves into my lower respiratory tract, so my wife does all the shopping late at night. We've done this for thirteen days now and used maybe 8-9 pairs of gloves total.

Which means 80-90 pairs of gloves in four months, and we have something like 600.

"I have been using hand sanitizer after I pump gas.

In one week the skin on my hands is as dry as it was in very cold Chicago winter.

I have a stash of clorox,wipes, but Using them without gloves would destroy my hands.

And I don’t have enough gloves to dispose of them after every use."
