Simple. Just don't touch your face. Do your shopping as normal, don't faff with your face, and sanitize when you get back in the car. This is what i do. No need for the obsession with sanitizing trolley handles etc IMO. It's just making people more Covid obsessed.
If she's become withdrawn then perhaps you might need to talk to someone who knows about these things? They should be able to give you the right advice regarding your child. If her group of friends aren't at school but there are others at school then she might expand her friends group by meeting up with those at school? I'd imagine all those kids at school feel a bit strange and anxious and making friends might be the best thing.
I avoid the supermarket now Lego. A prime place to catch Covid IMO and yet the government does not enforce any proper social distancing.
She's ok DB9. We've had a talk and she is OK about going back to school. There are a couple of kids that she knows who are at school so she doesn't feel as bad now. I think it was the lack of not knowing when she'd be going back and when her friends would be going back which has been the main problem. Another thing the Government have failed with. Not giving specific dates to aim for. Makes it even more difficult. Not that would make a difference now anyway because if they promised something by X date, they'd change their mind about 5 minutes before that date arrived!
I've been to the supermarket about 3/4 times a week since July. Also go to my local shop about twice a week. I went to an ASDA in Dunbar, Scotland in October and it was literally wall to wall people. The worst i have seen. It was so tight and far too many people. It was OK though. To my knowledge i haven't caught Covid. I do think that supermarkets are made out to be a lot worse places in terms of spread than they are. A bit like schools.
Going on from this, I would more happily sit in a pub where the establishment has invested heavily in Covid protection than a supermarket in the sort of conditions you describe.
Like i say you know best for your child but please don't let you "Anger" at the Government's handling of this crisis get in the way of your child's education, If my daughter was a key worker i'd say to her let her two girls go back to school because at the moment they can't do much, The so called home schooling is really difficult with the two girls at different ages and learning abilities plus a two year old getting into things as well and not having a lap top each for them, Sharing is making it nigh on impossible for them to really get a decent education plus they live in a two bed flat, Five of them altogether it is cramped and very hard.
Absolutely Ali. But the Government can't be arsed to put in the effort to work out which places are Covid secure and should stay open and which places have an increased risk of spread. Therefore they use the blunt instrument of lockdown to close everything. As it's easier for the lazy twats.
I decline to comment on whether Lego is “all over the place” in regard to the virus.
