Well if you touch your face then I doubt any anti-bacterial wipes will help. The point is to consciously resist touching your face. That isn't that hard, I find anyway, if I'm on a very quick walk to the local shop and back. But I just don't understand these doctors saying don't wear gloves. You can get infected via your hands touching door knobs, buttons or baskets, so why on earth dismiss gloves because you might then touch your face? I just cannot understand what they're thinking. |

It's getting irritating how TV and radio keep inviting these doctors to advise us and they're never challenged. I've heard a succession of 'specialists' say that wearing gloves in supermarkets is 'useless' as 'Your gloves will pass the germs on to you when you touch your face'. Well, surely gloves are only 'useless' if you touch your face with them! You may as well say not wearing gloves is 'useless' as you'll touch germs with them and maybe also touch your face! No good having a good old soapy hand wash fifteen minutes later when you get back home! And yet interviews listen to this and just nod respectfully!
Almost everyone will have touched their face umpteen times before they get home.
We need plenty of cheap antibac, and "telling" to use it.
I cant understand why they dont have adverts explaining about cross contamination. (unless they actually want us to catch it) |

Tom, I feel your pain.  My neighbours are using lockdown time as an opportunity to hold crowded and rowdy parties. Rap never sounds good through brick walls. 
Rap never sounds good at any time in my opinion.
It's weird - out of all of those cars where some idiot is playing ear-bleedingly loud bass-heavy music, it's always some weedy white bloke playing rap and/or hip hop. Never the Carpenters!
Yes, exactly, and there is no such group as "The Carpenters" only Carpenters.
So there is! 
'
Poor old Richard Carpenter didn't get the memo. He often refers to them as 'The Carpenters'. And I've not heard one DJ ever say, 'And here's Carpenters...' (Except that time when there was a lot of sawing going on in the studio). |
