You are very wise. Avoiding contact is the only way to stop transmission.
Our grocery stores are going to have to impose limits on how much of something a person can buy. I think they may need to limit how many people they allow in the stores. I understand in the big malls the small stores have closed. They may even close the malls.
Nursing homes, and seniors homes are now closed except for essential visitors. Hospitals may close too. Some hospitals were in lockdown during the SARS crisis. We are more organized this time, but people are panicking more. What is with the toilet paper thing?
People are buying toilet paper as if their lives depended on it.
