Do you know how the first disposable gloves were born?
In 1889, the first disposable gloves were born in the office of Dr. William Stewart Halstead.
During surgery, disposable gloves can not only ensure doctors’ hand flexibility but also greatly improve the hygiene and cleanliness of the medical environment. Therefore, disposable gloves are widely popular among surgeons.
The Occupational Health and Safety Administration added disposable gloves to its list of personal protective equipment during the 1992 AIDS outbreak, after long-term clinical trials showed that they also had a protective effect against blood-borne diseases.
