Was anyone here watching just now? What did she say about the more likely and less likely ways the virus is transmitted?

If you disinfect your hands regularly after touching such bags the risk is very low.

Thanks for the info.

(67,405 posts)I am trying my best to stay in. My first quarantine was for 23 days. I am now going to the supermarket once a week because the shelves are so empty that I cannot get everything I need for a longer period of sheltering.
I am not going anywhere other than the Safeway and, if needed, the CVS right next door to it. I have been nowhere else in a long time.
