If you have no one vulnerable at home do you still wipe down all your shopping

[ssd]

When you bring it home?

I have been doing this but I forgot last night after getting something at local tesco, now I'm terrified I've brought the virus home

I have never wiped shopping down. We have not had coronavirus (as far as I know.) I would think the risk is miniscule.

no. I haven't wiped down any of our shopping at any point in the last seven weeks and we're all absolutely fine.

I never have. My things are delivered. I discard excess packaging and sanitise my hands, that's all.

I’ve never wiped my shopping or any delivery down either.

I think it was on here I read people are wiping down their shopping

I have health anxiety and don't know how to stop the panic over this

I’m sure you did read it on here op. Sadly we have people on here terrified to leave their homes or even open their windows in case it comes in.

No never have and not fallen in but sure someone will come along and say well you could be asymptomatic etc...

No

Yes, we do. It can live on surfaces so we do a quick wipe with dettol then wash hands.

I wonder if anyone has ever been proven to have caught it from their shopping,,,,🙄

No. I haven’t wiped my shopping down at all since this started. I’ve also eaten a chicken wrap from the takeaway in its packaging. I think I’ve also forgotten to wash my hands when we’ve handled deliveries. Neither of us have displayed any symptoms of coronavirus.

The risk is minuscule from shopping or deliveries. If you are managing everything else, keeping socially distant and not seeing friends of family in close proximity, then your overall risk is really low. If nobody in the household is vulnerable, it would probably also be good to reassure yourself that it mostly affects those with underlying conditions. I’d also stay away from triggers (news, maybe MN/FB) if you can.

I'm vulnerable and I don't wash my shopping, my friend is shielding and neither does he.

We've never wiped anything.

Never have

Nope

Nope. Risk is tiny. Just wash your hands after unpacking.

No and I never have done.

I unpack shopping and put away, wash hands and clean kitchen surface where everything was placed.
They haven’t yet found a positive colleration between packaging and the virus
I’m living with someone vulnerable and I do clean toilet flushes, door knobs everyday routinely, wash my hands regularly

Never wiped down any shopping

Think of how many supermarket workers touch shopping all day. We haven't had an abundance of coronavirus infections in supermarket workers.

I have never wiped shopping or deliveries.

I do but only because I am shielding. Otherwise I would not. I have a shielding g friend who has ordered Dominos and isn’t worried.
The risks are tiny.

No, I never have.

I bring shopping home, unpack it all and then wash my hands. The same with the post and parcel deliveries.
