There are only 25 of us in this massive room at work. I asked a manager why don't we spread out as we are all in one end of the room. He said it makes no difference, because you will probably get it anyway. I said why not give people the choice to move. He said I could move if I wanted away from everyone if it would make me feel better. I don't think this is been taken seriously enough in our office

I'm afraid gloves are useless against the transmission of this virus. If you don't believe me, use a search engine and check for yourself. They may actually make the spreading of the virus worse, because people may think they eliminate the need for hand washing. Gloves would still need to be washed regularly when worn, in order to be effective.
What we really so desperately need, especially in delivery, is hand sanitizer. And lots of it...
