Except Covid 19 is actually not that contagious, as we have learned. Virtually all the cases are from people in prolonged close contact with a breathing human, in low circulation places. Not from stuff, or not a brief encounter/passing.

“Not that contagious”. Tell that to the 4 million people infected and the close to 300,000 deaths. Tell that to the International community that now have borders shut down so no travelers allowed in. Tell that to the business owners who were required to close and are now probably going to be bankrupt. Tell that to the children Zooming class from home. I can go on and on. Oh right, Covid19 is NOT that contagious

You missed the point.

Are you rolling around in someone else's scrubs, like a dog snuggles and owner's shirt? If so, stop that. It's rude.

But you're not going to catch covid this way. I understand you're grossed out by "germs" but this is a mental issue, not a risk issue. I'm not sure why you think everyone else is so clean - you cannot identify sickness based on someone's clothing. And even if you could, you being in the same room with someone wearing scrubs is not a risk for covid. For the love of god, gather some perspective and find healthy productive ways to deal with your unbelievable anxiety.

You mean like taking their seat on the bus or subway and then smoothing out your clothes when you get up, then touching your nose? Or accidentally bumping against them in an elevator?

What do you think the point of scrubs is, genius? It's to get some kind of control over the spread of germs. Is it really that hard?

Oh my god.

I don't know how you ever leave home. I would not trade my life for an hour in your head.

Being intelligent is not for everyone.

Agree. Totally unprofessional. This is why they have locker rooms.

Hmm will you please tell me where my locker room is? I work at a major teaching hospital in dc and the only locker room I know of is in L&D and then assuming OR. 100% of my coworkers in the ICU and PACU come in our scrubs and leave in our scrubs.

Agree. Hospitals don't have locker rooms. I've worked in the ICU of at least 10 and I've never seen or be given a locker room.

You're going to wash your hands anyways before touching your nose because you're smart enough to know, scrubs or not, that anything you touch out in public may be contaminated and that is the way we all should be operating at the moment. The person whose seat you take on the metro may be an asymptomatic carrier regardless of the type of clothing they are wearing. They also may not have washed their jeans for a week and not wash their hands after they poop.

I'm going to wash my hands on the subway before scratching an itch? No.

Scrubs signify "We work somewhere where we try to keep our outdoor clothes separate from out work clothes." So that's how they differ from run of the mill jeans.
