A young and healthy person doing the shopping for an elderly, high-risk person -- and buying a couple of masks for them, in case they have to leave home at some point (say for a doctor's visit)? And yes, you can physically hand over goods without running the risk of infecting the recipient. If you want to be extra careful, leave it outside their front door and spray the outer packaging with disinfectant. |

the person had the phone on hands free, the person on the other end was no geriatic nor sounded short on breath or hinting they had one foot in the grave It's a safe bet they were hoarding assholes, the person on the other end was most likely filling their trailer with dunny paper and baby food to send OS >:( **** them :-- |

I have several friends who are immunocompromised or on immunosuppressants. They sound like normal adults but corona has a significantly increased chance of lethality for them. |
