I’m usually SUPER paranoid about working with the viruses in the lab. Cold sores aren’t dangerous but they’re really gross (Annoyingly my virus experiments always come up right before I have a date too…). So I usually end up wearing two pairs of gloves and being extra careful when I’m handling the virus.
To stop the virus spreading and infecting ourselves and anyone else, we carry out all our experiments in a special cupboard that has a contained airflow. This means that nothing can get out and infect anyone else around us.
