One mother wore disposable gloves and carried a containers of disinfectant wipes as she expertly wiped down her son’s backpack and other belongings. She explained her reasoning, saying “don’t nobody want the child to be sick and don’t nobody wanna bring that virus to they house.”
Elsewhere in the interview, there is footage of a man completely spraying his son from head to toe with disinfectant outside the school before getting inside the car and going home.
Additionally, a woman named Annie Jones created a DIY hazmat suit from plastic bags that she wore on her face, shoes, hands and body, She was at the school to pick up her nephew and said, “They ain’t giving us no up to date about what’s going on. We don’t know.”
