and wipe it with alcohol wipes before it enters the house. all surfaces. throw the wipe away and remove the latex gloves and dispose gloves too.

ordered a few face shields to go with my 1 mask... and I have a UV light box to disinfect the mask for reuse. I want a high intensity floor UV at my door to disinfect my clothing which I drop at the door for later washing. Outer clothes.
