Including what to do before, during, and after your outing.
to a T—staying six feet away from others at all times, not closely interacting with anyone outside of those who live with you—there will still come a time when you have to venture out into the world during this coronavirus pandemic: Most likely for a trip to grab groceries.
If you can't use those services, proper planning is key according to Dr. Meyer. That means making a grocery store list, taking it with you, and only getting what you need to avoid any lingering or browsing. It's also wise to shop during off-hours. "Try to go at a time that is less crowded, like first thing in the morning or late in the evening, so that you can keep your distance from other shoppers," says Dr. Meyer.
The same goes for gloves, says Dr. Meyer. "There is no recommendation for wearing gloves for the general public and in fact, we prefer that people do not buy gloves for grocery shopping because it could be taking this precious resource [personal protective equipment] away from people who really need it: the healthcare workers on the front line of patient care," she says.Lauren Bryan
Most important of all, don’t leave the house if you are the least bit sick. “If you’re not feeling well, please stay home if you can and ask a generous roommate/neighbor/friend to drop groceries off for you,” reminds Dr. Meyer.Better said than done, but try not to stress out too much.
When checking out, Dr. Meyer believes it may be safer to use a self-checkout machine "because it's easier to maintain that six feet of social distancing from other people." That said, because self-checkouts often use highly-trafficked touch pads, it's wise to wipe that down with a disinfecting wipe too, or at least use your sleeve to press buttons. If you do have to interact with a store clerk, try to stand as far away as possible.
