section_content: If you are providing care to someone who is sick at home or in another non-
healthcare setting

Use disposable gloves when cleaning and disinfecting the area around the person who is sick or other surfaces that may be frequently touched in the home.
Use disposable gloves when touching or having contact with blood, stool, or body fluids, such as saliva, mucus, vomit, and urine.
After using disposable gloves, throw them out in a lined trash can. Do not disinfect or reuse the gloves.
Wash your hands after you have removed the gloves.


Reviewer feedback on this answer:
The question is asking whether certain types of gloves need to be used, while this answer just says that gloves need to be used in general. This isn't a good answer to the question.
This information is irrelevant to the question. This information is explaining about when and how disposable gloves should be worn when caring for a sick person in a non-healthcare setting. It does not provides any answer of whether or not extended length gloves should be worn when caring for patients with Covid-19.

Answer passage (source: CDC):
page_title: Personal Protective Equipment: Questions and Answers
section_headers: Gloves
What type of glove is recommended to care for suspected or confirmed COVID-19 patients in healthcare settings?
section_content: Nonsterile disposable patient examination gloves, which are used for routine
patient care in healthcare settings, are appropriate for the care of patients
with suspected or confirmed COVID-19.

Reviewer feedback on this answer:
This answer provides information about nonsterile disposable patient examination gloves and does not provide any information on wearing extended length gloves when caring for patients with Covid-19 as asked in the question.
This seems to be an answer to the question, but it doesn't reference the types of gloves specific in the question, so it's not entirely clear. Some more detail would help this answer.
