Medical Glove supplies possible impact in China
I wonder if the medical glove supplies will be impacted due to the Corona Virus outbreak in China. China appears to be the biggest manufacturer of medical gloves.

Looks like more of an increase in masks than gloves sad to say. I don’t even see anyone wear masks where I am yet.

Singapore is surrounded by Malaysia and both have significant Chinese minorities.

Re: Medical Glove supplies possible impact in China
I’ve certainly noticed price hikes on disposable gloves. I don’t prepare food without wearing blue nitrile gloves (I worked in hospitality during my university days and all the chefs and other kitchen staff wore gloves, so I felt that justified wearing them in front of my flatmates, and I have done ever since) and if my supply runs low then I’m fucked. What would normally cost £3 for a box of 200 (Unigloves, if you were wondering) now costs £18!!
