Wasn't talking about me, was talking about her. I don't care that she chose to wear gloves

What is the difference in being aware and being unaware of someone with HIV
You mention working at a hospital and not wearing gloves sometimes not knowing if a person has HIV or not. Obviously knowing could make someone more cautious as there is a potential (not likely) of an action resulting in your death that wouldn't exist otherwise

They didn't put gloves in the hospital rooms until the early 2000s unless the patient was in isolation. Seems the the infection rate should be higher, huh?
