If there is an outbreak, you want to avoid going to places like stores - not just for yourself but to minimize your chances of contracting the virus and exposing others. It's the socially responsible thing to do.

- meowface 7y agoI get almost all of my non-perishable items with Amazon and Amazon Fresh (left at my door without human interaction). Not sure how much safer that is, but I imagine it's less exposure in total, if I'm careful about hand-washing.

- SpicyLemonZest 7y agoIt's about risk mitigation. It's not 100% guaranteed physically impossible to pick up the virus from a delivery package, but it's a very low risk, much lower than other infection vectors most people will be exposed to. Unless you're planning to hermetically seal yourself into your home for the next 8 weeks, the risk is probably so low it's not worth thinking about.

- meowface 7y agoMinimum wage coughing worker. I'm just figuring it's lower risk than going to a store with numerous coughing/breathing customers and employees everywhere. I believe the risk is higher when you're directly exposed to another person, compared to the virus being on an object's surface.
