a Glove mode, similar to Moscow, has not been introduced in any country in the world. What data is based on the decision of the Russian regulator and why an approach does not agree abroad?
“Question: does wearing gloves in public places to effectively deal with coronavirus infection? Answer: No. Regular hand washing provides greater security against intrusion COVID-19 than wearing gloves.” This is not the opinion of a single expert, and a direct quote from the questions and answers world health organization.
The who guidelines have listened in the Ministry of health almost all countries of the world — Business FM failed to find a single example of a preventive mode, in which the wearing of gloves would be required. USA — “the wearing of gloves in the store or at the ATM is not necessary”; Australia — “gloves do not replace thorough washing of hands”; the UK is “gloves are not recommended to the public as protection from COVID-19” and so on.
The official study of the feasibility of the glove mode, the CPS was not represented. The closest analogue is the publication on the website of the Moscow city hall, in which the Metropolitan expert Destava indicates that the gloved man is harder to accidentally touch your face with your hands. Counter broadcast by the canadian CBC voiced pulmonologist Samir Gupta, working with COVID-19.
“People who wear gloves, mistaken about their efficacy. The coronavirus can not be infected through the skin is probably the best barrier to viruses than gloves. The infection enters the body through the mucous membranes of the mouth, nose and eyes. The problem is that, if you do not take care of themselves, we are constantly touch the face with dirty hands, and wearing gloves doesn’t change anything. Moreover, the virus with different surfaces may be even more inclined to stick to rubber than to the skin. Therefore, the wearing of gloves does not prevent contamination via the surface or even on the contrary, can provoke in people a false sense of security. Gloves are intended for single use only, not for extended or daily wear”.
Questions are voiced not only by the glove mode, but at the mask. As reported by “Interfax” the head of the Department of Microbiology, Virology and immunology, First Moscow state medical University named after I. M. Sechenov Vitaly Zverev, after two hours of wearing the mask becomes a means of infection — it can settle bacteria and fungi. According to the academician, “outside the mask is not just useless, but harmful”.
We are talking about the mandatory wearing masks when walking in the open air, which will be available to Muscovites from 1 June. In the same way that a mask mode is needed in the shops and transport, no doubt should be — to contain an outbreak of the virus without the introduction ofia such restrictions have not succeeded in any country in the world. Continues ABC medical commentator Dr. Tom Hopkins.
“there should be 100%, all have to wear masks when you go shopping. You need to understand,when I wear a mask, I’m protecting you. When you — you protect me. So when all of them are all protected. Maybe you have no symptoms or they are weak, but when you go to the store or traveling on business, you should always wear a mask. An exception can be made while Jogging in a deserted place, but when it comes to everyday travel, the wearing of masks probably will become a new social norm, for this we have to adjust to.”
Sergei Sobyanin in an interview to “Russia 24” call introduced in Moscow masono-glove mode “regime survival”. According to him, part of preventative measures will remain in force as long as the vaccine for coronavirus is not found. At what stage the authorities will be prepared to consider cancellation, mitigation or at least justification for those limitations that cause the most issues, the mayor said.
In St. Petersburg, masks and gloves cease to be binding on the street. From June 1 this is only a recommendation, ordered the Governor Alexander Beglov. Thus it is necessary to wear a mask and gloves in stores, in transport, at stations and generally on the premises.
While in Moscow from June 1, mask mode, on the contrary, increases. Remedies, according to the mayor Sergei Sobyanin, is needed everywhere, including on the street. Masks should be worn indoors, says the physician, health blogger Philip Kuzmenko.
Philip Kuzmenko, physician, health blogger: “the Mask is the thing that is supposed to protect healthy people from patients. If you feel the relevant symptoms, you should wear a mask to not infect healthy people. Another meaning that the street is pointless because you are not so close to other people, that the virus has spread so that it infected other people. Same thing with gloves. Gloves — the skin on our hands is the best protection possible. The only caveat is that the people your face touch your hands. Put on additional protection in the form of gloves only makes sense as a psychological barrier that you are wearing gloves, do not touch your face. Scratch your face with your hands is the norm, and with gloves as if it’s weird and you these gloves begin to come off, and as a psychological barrier it works.”
At the same time, the authorities insist that the mask can be effective on the street when it is impossible to observe social distance. For example, in areas of road crossings or at bus stops. Doctors also warn of the danger of the constant use of sanitizers. Excessive drug��s can lead to the same skin diseases.
