Protect COVID-19: There is no for sure way known. CDC recommends Wearing plastic gloves, and a Mask. 95 if you can get them and a face shield or protective glasses. Wash your hands after each time you touch someone's money. If you are behind a glass partition this may help. Go to CDC and get their guidelines.
