Are we as safe as we think we are? Are we using our safety PPE effectively? Let’s think about it. We put on our mask in the morning to protect ourselves from breathing in harmful bacteria. As we go through our day breathing, sneezing, coughing and sweating how safe is our mask if we don’t change it?

If you have notice people are exercising wearing mask and gloves but are they being used effectively? For example you start your day going out with you mask on. Sometime during the day you sweat, cough and even sneeze inside your mask. Based on the fact temperature is at least 98.6 degrees or hotter inside the mask because you are breathing at what point are you disposing of the mask. If you are using the same mask day in and day out aren’t you putting yourself at some of risk? At some point are you sanitizing your mask? If its disposable are you disposing of it or over using it?

Now lets discuss the gloves. Wearing gloves are fine but what are you doing that’s not sanitary with the gloves on or even when you take them off. People are touching things as they come and go all during the day. It is a normal reaction to wipe your face, eyes, nose, and mouth. Some people think that latex gloves are forever sanitary and eat with the same gloves they have been wearing all day. Some people take there gloves off and don’t feel it necessary to wash there hands after they are removed. When wearing the latex gloves you are protecting the outside but sweat and germs are accumulating in the inside. Always wash your hands immediately after removing your gloves.

Right, wrong, good or bad everyone has an opinion what’s yours?
