Stay home and make your own coffee. You dont realize all the touching of the cups. You are not helping the "stay home" policy.



Yes I went once the first weekend (Mar 14/15) and the guy was wearing gloves. I asked him if he changed them with every order and he looked at me like I had 10 heads.
So the gloves are pointless and I didn’t go back Chat Icon




This. As much as I love my afternoon cup of coffee from the local drive-thru, I'm taking a break for a few weeks.

I just saw on the news that the CDC says drive-thru and food delivery is fine.

I read that they said it was minimal risk to carry it through food. The biggest risks are the people breathing by you during it and the hands.

I’m also concerned about how long it stays on surfaces. I read somewhere that is can stay on cardboard for a few hours. They did testing of the cruise ship and are still finding traces after 17 days. The good thing with this is they don’t know exactly how long the virus is infectious on these surfaces. They may stay there, but it doesn’t mean they can actively get a host. Time will tell on that one.

Just stay home people. I’m probably going to stop deliveries for as long as possible.

We eat drive through and delivery and it's fine. It isn't transmitted through food. Yes, the drivers are touching the bag. But, we wash our hands before we eat.

Same.
I've been getting take out a few times a week actually.
I always wash and scrub my hands as soon as we get home and before we eat.
