About the solution
Yoav had an idea to save and reuse multi-purpose gloves, respirator masks and other protective items that have become very costly and hard to find.
Using empty cardboard boxes Yoav created a cluster of seven cubbies. Each cubby may include two hooks to allow for the hanging of mask, gloves and outside shirt for each day of the week. The idea is to label your item with the day of the week, use it and then place it in the designated cubby. After seven days, the person can start from the first set of items again. The time will give the pathogen enough time to perish.
An ideal cubby cluster should be spread out as much as possible to prevent the chance of viral ‘cross-pollination’ from one piece of gear to the next.
Yoav clarifies that his idea is meant for informational purposes and is not meant to substitute professional precautions.
