I just returned from a cruise (yes, I know) and may have been in contact with someone who was infected. The operable word here is 'may'. Truth be told, I doubt I'm at very high risk, because, other than sitting on the airplane going and coming, the entire experience never involved a lot of up-close-and-personal contact. This is not all that easy to acquire (close contact and direct infection), so just being in an area that an infected person had occupied in the recent past wasn't an issue. Hand washing and sanitizing, on the other hand, was a ritual, and we followed it to the letter.
We live in an exurban environment, so ordering groceries is out. On the other hand, the population density here makes transmission unlikely. It's a trade-off I guess. We both plan to be rational, but we also have no intention of going hermit. It's a personal choice, I guess. I think my odds are excellent.
But you can still order food from a company such as Door dash. They are nearly everywhere now.
