    Same thing with groceries they bring to your car and other transactions. You can't sanitize the world and 99.9% of us can't live totally self contained.

    My family is trying to eat out locally and focus on non-megachain restaurants.

    And for the record, you can put me down in the "this is an over-reaction" crowd. Our focus should have been much more targeted and less blanket in non-metropolis areas. We are damaging our own children's futures.

    That safety equipment doesn't keep you from being exposed.

    Well yeah, but so can any food you didn't grow yourself. Health professionals request that you wash your hands prior to eating. Also, remive the food from the packaging, throw packaging away, then wash your hands. Do not use their plastic utensils or plates. Use your own.

    Literally everything we consume, could have been handled by someone either in a factory, delivery, grocery store, or restaurant employees.

    Everyone in this country is going to get the virus either now or in the future, until atleast 80% of the country has an immunity. The main focus now is for everyone not to get it at the same time.

    The economy will recover. A 4 month shut down is going to be terrible, but we will recover. If you research other epidemics, it doesn't matter if you are rural or not. It spreads like wildfire without blanket all over actions. The spanish flu of the early 19th spread throughout the country. Even without massive travel and commercialization of our everyday life. Now, granted we had young men coming back from the war which helped it get into pretty much every neighborhood in the world.

    Either way, eat local, wash your hands, take it seruously, and when we start to ramp back up, our hospitals may be able to handle it.

    You obviously do not understand how this works. You have zero body response to this bug. You will come into contact with it eventually, and you will get the virus. The only hope is that after 80%+ the population gets it, we will have herd immunity and it will die out. Until then, take precautions and give it your best effort to not get it for as long as possible. The virus is being reported now, 17 days after the virus touches a surface, it can still be detected as infectious. 17 days just sitting there waiting for you to touch a door knob. Just wash your hands and don't lick public surfaces.

    I also have a box of mechanics throw away gloves in my truck. It is useful for filling up with gas. Also use hand sanitizer once I remove them and dispose.

    I knew before many of you heard of Covid 19. I have been on lockdown for 45 days. I am in a very remote area I doubt I will get it in this 1st wave but 3 months from now who knows. Unless I get deployed to set up medical tents then all bets are off.

    Any food can be contaminated, but workers can't sneeze on food after I cook it.

    They don't know whether the virus can infect somebody through the digestive tract. But they have found the virus in feces.

    I think I may have had it back at the end of February- i had something and it wasnt the flu. I had 2 days of fever and feeling like absolute crap. Slept 12-13 hours each of those days and that just isnt me. I average about 6 hours of sleep per day. Felt better the 3rd day and almost fine the 4th.

    It's basically a .7% chance or so of dying. The percentage drops the more testing comes in. I'm not scared and refuse to live that way.

    I even ordered Chinese takeout last week. Rock on guys and dont be a *****.

    Will you please cite your sources claiming that this lives on a surface for 17 days in an infectious state?

    I ordered from Lost Pizza ( curb side delivery) in Tupelo twice this week. They host a fundraiser that I support each year so I want to give back, also several of the local liquor stores have curb side service as well....I do worry a little it about getting it via take out food, I reheat it in the microwave and always wash my hands before I eat....

    It was reported they found it on surfaces of some cruise ship 17 days after they disembarked. In the article I read, Business Insider I think, they had an expert that was sure it couldn’t be transmitted or if it was traces of the virus or something like that. It was a legit story that FB sharing sensationalized and probably a few misleading headlines along the way.

    Here is a really good interview with Fauci where he talks about what the virus can live on & for how long. If you want an actual answer.

    * Beware of metal but it can't survive on boxes & other porous type material

    Thanks Beast! I saw the report and figured that was what was being quoted.

    The devil is in the details though, and why I asked Buckethead to cite his/her source. While there were traces of the virus found 17 days afterwards, it was not in an infectious state as he/she claimed. The virus has to have a host and it can not survive on inanimate objects longer than a few days. WHO even states "several" days (https://www.who.int/news-room/q-a-de...-coronaviruses). As a reminder, several is defined as more than two but not many.

    Misinformation being put out without sources is dangerous. I get this is a message board and opinions are welcomed, but if you put something out as fact - I think the responsible thing to do is simply cite where the information came from.

    Cook your own food and it will kill the virus if on it. If eat uncooked fruits and veggies be sure to wash thoroughly. Replace plastic on foods and put in containers.
