Lazada Delivery Guy Licking Package : Should You Be Worried?

We do not think that delivery people are in the habit of licking or spitting on the parcels they deliver. But it is really unsanitary even if they merely place it against their unmasked face.

That said, the risk of catching COVID-19 from packages is practically nil.

Even though it has been considered a possible mode of transmission, there has been no record of anyone getting infected by COVID-19 through fomites – contaminated objects like that package.

Nevertheless, it is a good idea to wipe down any parcel or package you receive. Even more importantly, you should always maintain good hand hygiene by washing your hands with soap, or using a hand sanitiser.
