As new variants of Covid-19 spread nationwide, it’s time to stop going to the grocery store, Vox argues. The headline has generated some blowback on social media—many people can’t outsource their shopping—but the central warning echoes a growing chorus of similar sentiments from public health professionals far and wide.

Perhaps comedian Ziwe Fumudoh put it best in a tweet posted Sunday: “I feel like everyone could stand to be 20% more worried about covid than their current base anxiety.”
