Have been reading a lot of articles on covid-19 that suggest ways to reduce risk of contracting it, including avoiding crowds. would it make sense then to run errands in the early morning when there are fewer shoppers in the stores?
A doctor has provided 1 answer
Covid-19: Avoiding crowds, wiping down the handles of shopping carts, washing your hands often (including immediately upon returning from shopping trip), avoiding touching your face, etc., should all help. Know, however, that no system is foolproof, so call your doctor if you develop a fever or respiratory symptoms.
