Bus or Taxi?

I have to go to hospital for an x-ray tomorrow morning. I have to get the bus or taxi and still can't decide. Buses are quiet here. I feel like a taxi is a more enclosed space. A taxi would be much easier but I feel like a bus is the best option. Please help guide me what to choose.

Same as each other regarding risk

bus. You'll probably be only one on & it's more eco-friendly.

Probably bus if like you say they are empty and you can avoid touching things.

Less time and less people in a taxi.
You can't control who gets on the bus. Or where they sit/if they cough/sneeze. You'll need to touch the handrail.
I'd sit in the back of a taxi and open the window.

I haven't seen more than a couple of people on a bus where I live for weeks. The trains are running empty most of the time as well.

How did you travel in the end, @Buttons4meButtons4me? I admit I'm only curious if there was anyone else on the bus!

I got a taxi. Thought about it so much but due to being in pain decided to get a taxi which took less than 10 minutes than waiting for the bus which would of took 30 minutes.
