If there's total lockdown, can I order takeaway food?

[DontBiteTheBoobThatFeedsYou]

Getting my priorities right 🥴🥴🥴🥴

I don't think takeaways would be open would they?

No, delivery drivers won’t be allowed out either.

I doubt it very much.

NOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO
😭😭😭😭😭😭😭😭😭😭

We are in "lock down" in France and take aways are still permitted, but most restaurants are closed including most McDonald's.

That's what I would have thought!

No delivery drivers????

You're allowed to go to work when you're on lock down.

Well, some delivery drivers are key workers, aren't they?

Dominos is still delivering so far.

Deliveroo is operating fully with a covid-19 option - so they leave it on your door step, knock and walk away. Don't forget to wipe down handles / packaging and wash hands before eating.

Erm in locked down countries delivery drivers most certainly are allowed out.

In Italy and we are having a pizza delivery tonight.
Takeaway places here are not allowed to be open for public walk-ins and have to have their shutters down etc. But they are on the list of food providers and can therefore continue to operate.

I was in lanzarote last week during lock down and takeaways were open. Collection was ok if one person goes, as going out to get food is permitted. I would d imagine it will be the same here.

All couriers also still working. Contactless signing obvs.

I would be concerned who’s hurred on my food

All the restaurants where I am are doing takeaway now they are closed to eating in. We have an app which all the restaurants have signed up to, where you order and pay online and it's delivered and left on your doorstep

Good question, we will find out soon.

I hope they keep delivery drivers on the road, with precautions to protect them. This will go a long way to helping the economy and those isolated in homes. People will still need toys, birthday presents etc maybe now more than ever. So I hope delivery drivers are the exception. We can always ship in chocolate for tea

Our local post office seem to think they will be continuing to work whatever, but that is not especially safe if you have to queue, but maybe they can work that out with distancing...

Yes I imagine they would be allowed. There are a lot of people who are alone and elderly who physically can’t cook and rely on takeaways. Some Indian / Chinese elderly for example would starve without as they won’t eat western food.

They're still delivering in Belgium. Contactless delivery so you pay online and don't get close to the driver. Lots of restaurants actively asking people to order to tide them over while they're not allowed to open.

Israel is on lockdown and I think they're still allowing food delivery.

We really need to know the answer to this too. We are self-isolating for at least another week and will be relying on takeaways by the end of the week as we don't have enough fresh food to see us through.

We won't starve otherwise, but we'll be living on rice, lentils and frozen veg

People are dying...

This is nothing... Wait till 2 weeks time.

Take away is not important

This virus can be passed in the packaging / people cooking it can have the virus

Christ sake

WHO have said deliveries are safe so I dont know why people on here are so determined to say they aren't
