Dr. Fry wants to operate for three different persons who were wounded in an accident.
But he had only two pair of surgical gloves. There should not be any blood contact between the three wounded persons.
How can Dr. Fry operate for the three people with two pair of surgical gloves?
If the surgical gloves are such that:
1. You can wear at least two pairs one over the other comfortably
AND
2. they can be worn inside – out without fear of infection or any other complications,
the doctor can proceed:
Step 1: Wear both pairs of gloves one over the other. Operate first patient.
Step 2: Remove the outer pair. Operate the second patient.
Step 3: Turn the first pair inside out and wear them over the second one. Proceed to operate patient No. 3.
Step 1: Wear the 1st pair of gloves and operate the 1st patient
Step 2: Take off the gloves so they are inside out.
Step 3: Wear the 2nd pair of gloves and operate the 2nd patient
Step 4: Wear the 1st pair of gloves over the 2nd pair and operate the 3rd patient
