Coronavirus— Don’t wear your rings!

I’m not going to lie...I can’t imagine NOT wearing my ring. These times are so uncertain and looking down at it just makes me feel better. But like you, I’m home 24/7 now so I don’t really have to worry about contamination!

Same / I’m home so I’m not worried about that but I haven’t been wearing my ring at all 😳 our daughter is 5 so we have been just baking, cooking, playing, science experiments arts and crafts yard work etc non stop so 🤷🏼‍♀️🤷🏼‍♀️🤷🏼‍♀️🤦🏼‍♀️🤦🏼‍♀️🤦🏼‍♀️

I quit wearing my ring weeks ago for fear that bacteria/virus could get trapped in/under it. Plus I’m washing my hands constantly, so it would require removing it literally 30 times a day. Not to mention all the disinfectant wipes, which are bad for jewelry

View Quoted Comment Yep, I only realized the other day that I hadn’t been wearing my ring 🤷🏽‍♀️. I don’t wear it to bed and I’m out of my daily routine.

View Quoted Comment Lol glad I’m not the only one !!!

View Quoted Comment I agree. All the extra handwashing was a lot while wearing my rings. Then I didn’t feel comfortable about using hand sanitizer all of the time. So it feels better to simply not wear them.

I don’t see the link anymore when I click on it but I can imagine that there’s germs on the ring too

View Quoted Comment Odd. IDK what happened

I saw that article a few weeks ago and stopped wearing my engagement ring and one of my grandmother's rings. I still have to show up for work and I'm hitting the hand sanitizer so much my hands are peeling. I'm super worried I'm going to misplace my rings though

View Quoted Comment Do you keep your rings somewhere safe at home? If so, you won’t lose them. 😉
