Just to make it clear, the reason why vinyl gloves are not preferred for medical purposes is because they aren't under the same type of requirements as other glove materials.

What standards should be considered when choosing gloves?

The American Society for Testing and Materials (ASTM)external icon has developed standards for patient examination gloves.

Standard specifications for nitrile gloves, natural rubber gloves, and polychloroprene gloves indicate higher minimum tensile strength and elongation requirements compared to vinyl gloves.1,2,3,4

The ASTM has developed standards for patient examination gloves. Length requirements for patient exam gloves must be a minimum of 220mm-230mm depending on glove size and material type.1,2,3,4

There are also several studies showing that nitrile is superior against viruses.

Why would nitrile protect against viruses, but not bacteria?

I would think most of us SDers don't need these so lets leave them for the medical professionals.

Honestly if vinyl doesn't help against viruses, we should make that clear so people don't get misled during this sensitive time. These will not protect you against COVID unlike nitrile or latex so pls take extra precautions if you plan on using these rn
