Move to online

If the shops only did online shopping, there would be no crowds there, emptying the shelves. The staff would be safer. People could order and pay online, then have goods delivered or pick up their orders at an allocated time. I've never done online shopping before, but I'd be happy to, to lower the risk. For those who don't have access, there could be carers or a group that could sort this out for them. There are a lot of kind people out there that would help with this. Restrictions could be put in place. It would ensure people got only what they need. My whole point is making sure no-one goes without, and the shop assistants aren't exposed to the crowds. Like the restaurants only doing take away now, and no dine in.
