I wouldn't worry about getting an oil change right away, but I would check the oil level with the dipstick. Subarus have a nasty reputation of losing oil between changes.

Is it okay to delay an oil change? I am a very type-A person that never misses deadline so the idea of waiting makes me anxious. I was thinking I’d park my car there leave the keys in car unlocked and call and pay and then pick my car up 2 days later And disinfect the inside. What would you all do?
Healthcare worker? if so, read this:

Your car doesn't have to be a Mazda, they'll take any car.

I’m not sure where you live but Quality Discount Tire in Kensington is great and they do oil changes - they are offering free pickup and delivery of your car within a 5 mile radius right now.

It’s really not that serious. Your car will not suddenly cease to operate due to a month or two delay in having the oil changed...

I’ll say again that time doesn’t matter.
Drive at least 5000 miles between changes.

Go through a drive through like Mobile One where you don't get out of the car.

This is nonsense.
