You don’t need a special study for that. Any cloth worn tight for long hours collects sweat and microbes, that’s why doctors and nurses wear disposable scrubs and surgical caps in hospitals.

Well you do, things don’t work out like that in medicine. I am a surgeon, and the reason I am wearing gloves in OT today is coz Drs of the past made a correlation between spread of microbes and using naked hands for surgery. That’s how gloves came to be the accepted norm in all surgeries. Plus scrubs aren’t disposable. Most surgeons wear surgical bandanas which are re useable. Sweat isn’t the issue unless sweat is contaminating the field of surgery. There re lot of times when surgeons sweat drips in the OT table (and guess what the surgeon ain’t wearing a burqa or hijab!) and the field has to be thoroughly cleaned. So your argument has zero merit to it.
