Answer: Gloves, goggles or face shield, gown, and finally mask or respirator.
Why not the others: Gloves are the most contaminated item and must be removed first to prevent contaminating the face when removing eye protection and masks; Respirators and masks are removed last outside or at the threshold of the patient room.
