We get our groceries delivered. We got take out last weekend.[/quote]

Sigh.

What is the point of getting groceries delivered if you’re getting take-out?

I don’t want to rub it in, OP, since your kid id sick. Thank you for posting so that others can understand the consequences of each action they take.

I don't understand this.  Does anyone know what this PP means?[/quote]

Yes, PP is under the impression that getting take out poses a high risk and should have been avoided.[/b]  Personally, I think it is a very low risk activity and the doctors on the news seem to agree - low risk.  We get take out at least once a week and we treat the packaging like we would our groceries or FedEx/UPS packages.  We unpack the take out in one area in our kitchen, throw away the packaging, wipe down the counter where the packaging was, and wash our hands.  We usually wipe down any sauce packets or dressings that came with it or we throw those out.  We try to steer toward warm dishes, although I did order a salad last time.  We've been doing this for weeks and are all healthy.  Medical professionals have said that this is not a food-born virus.  Unless someone at Papa John's happens to be an asymptomatic carrier of the virus AND decided to straight-up sneeze on your pizza and then ship it off to you anyway, you are completely safe.  And BTW, if you're that paranoid, just re-heat the food in your oven for a bit.  No big deal.[/quote]

It doesn't matter if it's high risk or low risk. If you get sick from something that's low risk, well, how does it help you that it was low risk? It's a risk.

We're not doing take out for now. This is not going to last forever, but sorry, there is some risk. People wear gloves and wipe their noses on their gloves, etc.[/quote]
