The question of the day is for the Moscow authorities: when will the harmful and unnecessary wearing of gloves be canceled?

The other day, the Moscow Operstab channel, subordinate to the Moscow government, with reference to the Organizer of Transportation, disseminated completely false information that allegedly 99% of the Moscow metro passengers wear masks, and 70% wear gloves!

Any passenger of the Moscow metro knows that this is not the case: if masks are still worn somehow (and, in most cases, incorrectly), then gloves are in the rarest of cases.

As the Metodichka channel writes, “in fact, about half of the passengers wear masks, and only metro and police officers wear gloves. At the same time, the metro continues to fine some passengers using the gop-stop method. The inspectors choose by sight the most vulnerable citizens - those who will not argue or fight - take pictures, draw up a protocol and give them a 5,000 fine.

The transition from gop-stop to total cleaning of passengers will lead to queues at the entrance to the metro. Both logistically and politically, this is unprofitable for the mayor's office. The question is, why touch upon the subject of observance of the mask regime, run into deliberate deception?"

Meanwhile, a year ago, and since then, scientists have declared many times that gloves are generally a useless accessory.

For example, academician of RAS Vitaly Zverev explained that the gloves not only does not protect a person from coronavirus, but on the contrary, can cause infection in other diseases:

“Gloves do not protect from anything at all - this is an exclusively commercial project. The virus does not remain on surfaces: neither on the railings, nor on the doorknobs. It is not transmitted by hands”, - said Vitaly Zverev, head of the Department of Microbiology, Virology and Immunology at Sechenov University, Academician of the Russian Academy of Sciences. The scientist added that on this occasion, studies were carried out, which confirmed that after prolonged wearing of gloves, dermatitis appears on the hands - this is a skin disease characterized by an allergic reaction.

“In addition, it is with gloves that we collect all kinds of intestinal bacteria and fungi, and then we still climb into the face with these gloved hands. At the same time, the risk of contracting these diseases from bare hands is much lower than from hands with gloves. On the hands, some of these bacteria die, as there are antimicrobial peptides on the skin - our natural defense against microorganisms, ”he added. But wearing masks is effective only if absolutely all citizens observe the mask regime. “If you, an absolutely healthy person, put on a mask, and next to you there is a sick person without a mask, then the probability of getting infected is still 80%. If both of you are wearing masks, then the probability of infection is reduced to 1-2%, ”the academician added. According to him, putting on a mask on the street is a senseless undertaking, it is better to breathe fresh air, while wearing a mask in the subway or public transport is a must..."

Needless to say, gloves are NOT worn ANYWHERE in the world, except Russia. And Russian practice suggests that officials completely ignore the opinions of experts, getting some material benefit from this venture.

The social psychologist Alexey Roshchin is amazed at how meekly Russian citizens resign themselves to this idiotic rule, to the extreme extent that there is no solidarity in our society, to what extent “good Russian people” do not care about each other!

Gloves, in his fair conviction, are a separate, specifically Russian case of mass state madness. Even in completely crazy Europe, even in America, which has gone from the blind, they did not think of wearing gloves obligatory (!) - IN ANY country, except for the Russian Federation, gloves are not required or demanded. Russia has been dead for a year already! Even high-profile doctors have already appeared, they have filed lawsuits in the courts - no, "the Russian land has stood and will stand on that". Wear gloves, smerds! And do not reason!

What is especially characteristic - no one wore and does not wear gloves: not a year ago, not six months, not now. And such a massive deaf rejection of gloves is understandable. My compatriots, therefore, all in all, if they do not understand, then they feel in their gut that the demand for gloves is harmful, unnecessary and senseless.

BUT! Moreover, in Russia there is a large category of our unfortunate fellow citizens who are forced to carry this harness - masks and GLOVES - CONSTANTLY, for 8-10 hours a day! We are talking about almost all types of service personnel - in cafes, shops, banks, post offices... Cashiers, waitresses, saleswomen, clerks - they are all ALL YEAR after all for hours, day after day, under the cameras pointed at them, chained in all this shit! Not daring to often even stick out your nose from under the mask - not to mention taking off this plastic or cellophane from your hands!

That is, we understand that gloves are not needed, and constantly wearing them on our hands is at least unpleasant, and in large doses it is completely harmful. But then why are we so indifferent to our fellow citizens, to all these unfortunate aunts, girls and grandmothers who suffer with gloves all day long ?! And - in front of us, gloveless, before our eyes!

Personally, I hate to watch innocent people being bullied before my very eyes. For quite some time now I have felt guilty everywhere - in the store at the checkout, in the cafe, and in the bank. Guilty for not having to sit around like a moron with gloves on, sweating and suffering.

How can this humiliating and heavy duty be removed from workers? How can we protect OUR compatriots from daily bullying "in the name of the state"?

We are all ashamed to be so helpless and powerless!"
