Two younger couples that own homes on our street have contacted us (in our 60's) and the couple (in their 70's) living next door. They offered to pick up our shopping orders and deliver them to our doorsteps. We barely know one of these couples since they just moved into the nieghborhood in the last few months. I told them that I appreciate their consideration and deem us fortunate to have such thoughtful neighbors. I likely will be purchasing a couple gifts for these families come December.

I am 64 and also in good health and still have to go to work...and I work in health care...but we follow universal precautions every day so nothing different. I will still shop, go to the gym, etc. Just wash wash wash your hands thoroughly and keep your hands away from your face. I carry hand sanitizer in my pants pocket and always have. But all this is my normal routine. Yes, one size does not fit all...so true

I have a question maybe someone in the health profession can answer.
The virus travels through the air (through droplets), right? Then why is it so important to wash our hands or use sanitizer so much? I mean, we wash our hands after using the bathroom, when coming in from outside and before eating. This is normal. Is there any benefit in doing this more often?

@Tessa Mendoza I'm not in the health profession. But when people cough, sneeze and touch things bacteria germs and viruses get on surfaces. Droplets in a sneeze can travel far.
Washing hands is important because we touch things and then our eyes, nose and mouth. We touch other people.
Hand washing prevents the spread and we need to be more careful especially in this situation.
