Molly Lixey's viral Facebook video is teaching people a lesson in just how easily germs can spread if using protective gear improperly.

A nurse in Michigan is demonstrating just how easily germs can spread at places like the grocery store, even when people are taking the precaution of wearing gloves.

With some green paint and just over three minutes of her time, Lixey put together a “goofy” video to show how quickly those protective gloves go from clean to contaminated. “A lot of people assume gloves and masks are magic bubbles and it’s just not true. People need to be aware of what they are doing not only to protect themselves but also to protect others,” she explains to Yahoo Lifestyle. “I think it’s just a lack of awareness. If you’ve never been trained in the proper use of PPE, you won’t know how to use it appropriately.”
