Hi @mcryan. While nothing is 100% safe, it's definitely safer than spending time in a crowded grocery store. I found this article from Consumer Reports that gives some ideas for what you can to do make sure your grocery delivery is as safe as possible:

Best wishes to you and hope you stay well.

Thank you very much

Hello @mcryan. You may notice I moved you discussion on getting groceries delivered to you during the COVID-19 social distancing period and whether or not it is safe. I combined your discussion with one of a similar topic titled, "Age 65 and Good Health: Can I get my own groceries?" Your topic of whether or not it is safe to have them delivered meshes very well with talking about how to safely get your own. @coloradogirl shared a good resource to check out. @mcryan, if you are comfortable sharing, are you practicing isolation, or just trying to prepare for avoiding larger crowds in public spaces?

@mcryan I just had my groceries delivered and what I do is take a Lysol wipe and use it on everything before I put them away . Im 78 and cant get out we are on a lockdown now so this is my suggestion
