Obviously im disappointed that I won’t get to defend the Open championship this year but I feel the RandA have made the right decisions based on people’s health and safety. See you all in Royal St George’s in 2021 pic.twitter.com/zr7uS80lgH

Fingal County Council tweetz:
Please be advised that surgical gloves are not recyclable. When visiting our recycling centres please take them home and dispose of them with your normal refuse.
Please do not put them in the recycling containers there or leave them on the ground for our staff to clear up.
Meanwhile…
Same message applies for carparks of shops. Take your dirty gloves home with you and dispose of them in the bin, or if there is a waste bin in the car park use that.
Taking the gloves off correctly will contain any contaminates safely inside. #COVID19Ireland https://t.co/vOnzSm8Plq

In fairness.
UPDATE:
Still happening at my local supermarket – customers loading up their cars, and chucking their latex gloves on the ground. The bin is a few metres away. Don’t get it… #COVID19 pic.twitter.com/0WnKuQ9TY1
