Abstract
A glove for inhibiting the spread of contagious diseases such as AIDS and Hepatitis to a person handling the body fluid of a person infected with the disease. The glove is flexible, stretchable, and relatively thin, and includes at least one layer of relatively thin pockets or chambers containing a sterilizing fluid capable of sterilizing the microbes that produce the disease. If an object cuts through the glove and into a person's hand, the sterilizing fluid will be released to help sterilize the infectious microbes in the region around the cut so that the microbes are rendered ineffective either before reaching the person's hand, after reaching the person's hand, or both. A method of using the glove for medical operaitons is also disclosed.
