How do latex gloves cause asthma attacks?

Exposure to latex gloves has become a common problem among health care workers, and is likely to present a problem to children who do laboratory experiments in school. Latex is made from the sap of the rubber tree and the gloves may contain residual amounts of plant protein, which becomes airborne. When the gloves are powdered with starch to make them easier to use, the allergenic proteins stick to the powder, spreading it further and making powdered gloves more likely to cause asthma than nonpowdered ones.

Powder-free, low-protein gloves are much less allergenic and should be used exclusively by latex-sensitive individuals if nonlatex gloves are not available.

I cant really gove you an answer,but what I can give you is a way to a solution, that is you have to find the anglde that you relate to or peaks your interest. A good paper is one that people get drawn into because it reaches them ln some way.As for me WW11 to me, I think of the holocaust and the effect it had on the survivors, their families and those who stood by and did nothing until it was too late.
