A SHOPPER made a custom coronavirus suit out of plastic and duct tape and wore it on a trip to target… but he forgot one crucial piece of the outfit.
The unidentified man wore the armor at a store in the US recently, which included a full protective headpiece.

In a video of the extra-cautious experience posted online, the man is heard explaining to another Target shopper he made the suit out of plastic and tape.
He appears to be covered in a sturdy plastic lined with black tape.
There appears to be a small slit in the head covering — but it’s unclear if there were any other holes throughout the bodysuit that would allow the man to breathe.
However, the man seemingly chose not to wear gloves or include his hands in the bodysuit design, as his hands are exposed.

The Centers for Disease Control and Prevention says wearing gloves while running errands isn’t necessary, but good hand hygiene is[/caption]
Gloves — in addition to face masks and hand sanitizer — are among the products that quickly sold out as the coronavirus outbreak hit the US.
The Centers for Disease Control and Prevention says that “hand hygiene is an important part” of combatting the virus.
Federal health officials advise people to use gloves “when you are cleaning or caring for someone who is sick.”
But, they say, when doing things like running errands, “wearing gloves is not necessary.”
