Crap. Delivered parents' shopping yesterday, symptoms today.

Am I likely to have spread it to them?! I didn't go in the house, I left it at the door, but I must have breathed all over their shopping.

The risk is minimal

You didn’t go in the house, hopefully didn’t hug Or sneeze on them or anything either at the door step

You’ve hopefully been washing your hand loads recently

Please God let it be minimal.

Haven't be in the house for weeks now, no contact, I've been washing my hands loads and antibac-ed before and after supermarket.

The thought of being the one to give it to them is awful :(

I've been delivering to parents and asking them to wipe it / assume it could have germs all over it, but this is my worry too.

Fingers crossed you won't have passed anything on - and it might not even be covid-19. There are still loads of colds and coughs around, and it's allergy season.

I did say that to them but they're pretty sceptical.

Suppose there's nothing we really can do, just hope for the best :(

Very unlikely and you talk all precautions. I wouldn’t worry.

Took!

I had this exact worry! Even if you do have it, it is still unlikely you would have spread it over their shopping if you didnt have symptoms, plus you have been washing hands regularly. And you might well not even have it. The risk is minimal, as pp have said. But I understand your anxiety and it's a horrid feeling.

They could have had the virus for two weeks before any symptoms!
