She would have touched her keys. Same result.
She would have touched her car doors. Same result.
And so on. I get that if she had followed proper procedure, she could have decreased her likelihood of infection, but sorry, I don't see the increase.
Please understand. I'm not trying to be difficult. Heck, I posted the precautions I take (and have) in this very thread.

Of course I do. If she takes the time to use gloves and mask it is because she wants to avoid contamination. How about this scenario:
Same women driving in her car sees a car wreck on the side of road and pulls over to help. She sees a person bleeding badly so she puts on gloves to protect herself from contamination and begins to help the person. Paramedics come and say thank you goodbye. Lady walks back to her car wearing her gloves completely bloody. Do you think she will rummage through her purse with the gloves on? Do you think she will touch her hair or shoulder with gloves on? Do you think she will remove her gloves in such a way as to not get blood on her clean hand? Do you think she will roll up her bloody gloves and put them in her jeans pocket?
I think being that she cant see anything on her gloves makes her feel clean and protected and complacent and therefore it increases her risk of getting truly infected. If you disagree, thats OK. I`ve had nothing better to do the last hour so Im just having fun. Cheers
