daznathe Posted April 19, 2009 Share Posted April 19, 2009 why do i see lots of physios wearing latex gloves at the moment? i always thought it was in case they had to touch a wound, or stick their fingers down a throat, to keep any germs on the fingers away. but if theres a cut head in the 89th minute, them gloves have been on for almost two hours, and touched many surfaces?? im puzzled, do they have a special surface or something?

I assume, it's so that if they thouch blood they don't get it on their skin... if they had a cut or small opening they could be infected by that blood. Best case the clap, worse case The Aids.

Frankly Mr Shankly Posted April 19, 2009 Share Posted April 19, 2009 'protect yourself' is the number one rule when giving first aid etc etc.. I take it daznathe isn't too used to putting on the raincoat before he hides the salami? Or does he get off at Dean Lane I wonder? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
