For all us transplantees, I do wear a glove on one hand that I use to open store doors, touch ATM keys, etc that others touch. Also have credit card ready to use instead of using cash and receiving change that has been touched by many people. Remove the glove before you enter your car and use hand sanitizer. Also take your oun bags and pack your own items.

Hi, @jerrynord. Welcome to the Connect Transplant discussion. I am happy to meet you and even more happy o read how you are implementing some great ideas to prevent exposure to the coronavirus. I think that we transplantees could teach others about how we do it day after day as our normal.
I like your idea for wearing a glove while pumping gas. Just today I have seen several people (not on here) questioning whether they could get COVID-19 by pumping gas.
I am a liver and kidney recipient. Please tell me a little about yourself. What organ did you receive? When? How is life going since the transplant?
