It's frightening how many people think that wearing gloves protects them from the virus. I know you know this, but wearing gloves only keeps the virus from getting on your hands. If you touch an infected surface with gloves on and then touch your face you're going to get sick just as easily as if you didn't wear gloves.
The only possible thing gloves do for you is let you skip the step of sanitizing your hands. You can put gloves on, touch an infected surface, and then remove the gloves (in a sanitary way) and your hands are still clean. If you didn't wear gloves than you need to sanitize after touching the surface.
