Is it really safe to order delivery wile coronavirus (covid-19) is out there? on one side i'm hearing yes its fine, but i'm also hearing it lasts on objects. so what's to say the bag passed to me won't get me sick? should i be worry about this?

1 to 2 days: Leave objects delivered to your home outside if possible for one to two days. Handle the box with gloves and then you can throw the box away. This may help to reduce the spread of infection. If you develop symptoms, HT is here to arrange inbox consultations.
