I’m seeing more people with masks.

I wouldn’t recommend gloving up. That’s because gloves give a false sense of security, but are just as capable of spreading virus as bare hands. Wash hands frequently. If you do wear gloves, be as mindful of what you touch as if your hands are bare, and wash your hands when you remove the gloves. There is also a proper technique for glove removal to protect yourself from anything that might infect you.

I was an EMT so luckily I know how to do gloves. I keep alcohol wipes in the car for them and wash my gloved hands with tallow soap when I get home. Then I take them off. I have not heard of surface-to-human transmission. It’s really more of a “make other people feel better” type of thing, especially for workers.
