The Gloves Are On in Fight Over Misguided New York Restaurant Rules

The Gloves Are On in Fight Over Misguided New York Restaurant Rules - Reason.com
Last week, New York City health inspectors ordered the doors of celebrated Japanese restaurant Sushi Dojo closed.
The inspectors claim the restaurant's practice of allowing foodservice handlers to handle food is indefensible and dangerous.
Sushi Dojo chef David Bouhadana told Eater the glove regulation is garbage.
"We were closed for one thing and one thing only, not wearing gloves," he writes.
"Sushi chefs are not supposed to wear gloves.
17 employees lost their job because the DOH has been harassing me for four months and threatening me for this issue.
I have 20+ of the best sushi chefs behind me and many more ready to bat for me.
We will solve this BS rule, a rule I don't stand by.
Sushi is being ruined [b]y gloves[.]"
... A 2007 New York Times piece discussed a study suggesting the solution (gloves) may be making the problem (foodborne illness) worse. 
A 2012 Washington Post piece also cited research that made the same case.
So the rules don't make food safer.
Clean hands, as the saying goes, are better than dirty gloves..."
