I wear the sort of nitril gloves I use when dealing with fluids in my cars when I pick up stuff from outside the house. They get tossed as soon as I'm done with them. I keep a mask with me in case I get sick and may start to wear a bandanna when out in "public" ... the N95 masks seem to scare people. I don't get w/i 6 or more feet of others. I'll walk down the middle of the street if I have to. There's little traffic so that's not a problem. No one else comes in my house so I'm mostly concerned with stuff from the outside.

Unless it will spoil I just set it on my porch for three days, same with the mail. I wash my hands often and try to wipe down the most touched surfaces, the ones that I touch when entering the house, at least once a day. I'm starting to shower at night rather than in the morning so I don't carry anything into bed. And I have a separate set of clothes I wear when going off my property. I know several people who have had it (tested) and I know of several others who probably had it. One has died. Its a fickle beast. Sometimes it's just slightly miserable, sometimes it's a killer.

LA has seemed on the verge of an explosion for a couple of weeks but many of us are pretty anti social to begin with and few have to use public transportation. I greatly fear that its going to get into the homeless population and put them all in the hospital. So far so good but I dread the news every morning. We're all okay so far and I want to keep it that way!
