       Practical application: This is why I wear mask and gloves when
       opening goods that I regularly receive from Ups, Fed Ex, and
       regular postal clerk mail.
       My delivery people don't wear masks or gloves and these workers
       are often tired and either bear hugging the boxes naturally
       sweating and breathing on the boxes or balancing the boxes on
       their shoulder next to their faces before leaving them on my
       front porch.
       I simply feel more comfortable in my mask and gloves opening up
       the items outside my back door in the open air, I  discard the
       cardboard and packaging material from outside my house first
       before bringing the items inside my house.
       I lightly spray the boxes of the goods with a light amount
       Clorox mixed with water from a spray bottle. (My mask protects
       me from my disinfectant spray as well as covid from the
       cardboard and other surfaces) before bringing into  a special
       separate corridor Ive designated for items to air out for a few
       days.
       I'm certainly not gonna lug in two fifty pound bags of flour or
       something else in a giant box from some trucker with no safety
       mask or gloves and just plop the big cardboard box of supplies
       that will last me several months  onto my nice clean kitchen
       floor... that would  be nasty.. I do all that outside in my mask
       and gloves...I take the time to discard the dirty boxes  ..I
       keep things real clean..clean enough to eat off of! I store the
       unboxed items in a pantry area only after their package/wrappers
       are clean. That's the way I wanna be fed. I prefer to eat from a
       clean food source.
       That's my style and my preference having been part owner of a
       successful home bakery I see nothing wrong with cleaning off the
       food wrappers and discarding the wrappers outside before
       bringing into my house any bulk food items or any items for that
       matter which came from off a truck and warehouse. I prefer a
       clean food source as well as to lessen my chances of catching
       any disease and giving it to  an immunocompromised loved one.
       To me the whole cleaning process in my mask and gloves is ideal
       as compared to all the time and trouble driving and going into a
       store..I save tons of money buying in bulk and save tons of time
       having stored bulk amount of food and I eat healthier because of
       all this .. I much prefer receiving my bulk goods out front and
       then fetching them with no one around ...me bringing the
       shipments around back in my wheelbarrow to clean in privacy by
       myself; safe, while I listen to music through earphones. Ive
       been doing this since the pandemic began and have grown to enjoy
       it and I haven't caught covid in four and a half almost five
       years now because of my safety mask, gloves and disinfectant.

       "If someone touches a surface harboring infectious virus, then
       touches their face (something adults do every 3-5 minutes
       depending on situation, and kids do roughly 80 times per hour
       depending on age), they may be infected".
       There's Nice illustrations and photos of how germs spread
       here...
