Apparently, their clothing is magical since the virus lives on most things for 3+ days.

You're getting called out for that ("the virus lives on most things for 3+ days").

"Aerosol and Surface Stability of SARS-CoV-2 as Compared with SARS-CoV-1"
- see https://www.nejm.org/doi/full/10.1056/NEJMc2004973

“Stability of SARS-CoV-2 in different environmental conditions”

In the last study, they tested using cloth. There was no virus titer detected after two days and in two time periods less than two days, only one of the triplicate reactions was positive in the TCID50 assays, suggesting it may be less than two days for the virus titer to be detectable. These were in highly controlled laboratory conditions.

Good, then healthcare workers can re-wear their gowns, hats and flimsy masks again on day 2 or maybe their next shift.
