NP here.  I read the article, and assuming it is accurate, I think grocery stores would still be a problem if people do not practice appropriate social distancing.  They are indoor areas, people are in there for a while, they touch stuff and put it back (yes, still, I observed it several times on my last trip).  Takeout and outdoors I agree are minimal risk.[/quote]

You’d have to spend 10 minutes with each person to actually be at risk, unless they are coughing and sneezing all over you. And this is assuming no one is wearing masks.

“The exposure to virus x time formulae is the basis of contact tracing. Anyone you spend greater than 10 minutes with in a face-to-face situation is potentially infected. Anyone who shares a space with you (say an office) for an extended period is potentially infected.”
