Exactly. If the poster is really in a high-risk group, why take any unnecessary risk?

I believe that there is no special risk inherent in paying at a gasoline station pump and filling up your car. I believe that COVID transmission risk at a gas station pump is far lower than inside a supermarket or pharmacy. But food and drugs are a necessity. Travel is not. So if one is that worried, why bother?
