Stay inside everyone. We got Netflix, Disney plus, pc/console games, skype, Murder Mystery, facetime, amazon prime shipping. Few reasons right now to go outside. Even if you aren’t high risk, there’s no saying you will live well after this thing. The long term effects of this virus are still unknown, but could include scarring of the lungs. Might feel better after recovery, but may not realize the full damage to your body till years later.
How do you handle your packages when delivered ?
Or are you more care-free in that aspect. I normally just wear gloves and then toss the box out.
If you are at home and know that the package was delivered at the door. Leave it outside (time depending on how safe your neighborhood is) then pick it up. I give it a quick wipe with antibacterial handwipes and take the stuff out of the box/package, then toss it, wash my hands with soap.
Avoiding the direct contract with a mailman (no no to opening the door) and washing hands are a must imo
Wearing gloves is a good idea but I'd keep them outside and leave them outside after you get rid of the box. We don't know how long the virus survives on any surfaces, but we don't wanna take any chances.
All in all I'm not too worried about getting packages, it's probably a lot safer than going to get groceries at this point.
