However, we are still learning about this newVirus and if you are ordering any food or products to your homegenerally, and also locally, it is always wise to practice good handhygiene after handling packaging and potentially cleaning thepackaging and products themselves and limiting the interaction withyour delivery agent, such as by having a ‘no contact’ delivery, asthey may be inadvertently a carrier of the virus.
