I’ve seen photos of people in Japan and its not unusual to see people wearing surgical masks while out in public. No idea how effective wearing a surgical mask is to prevent the flu. I don’t think that there is much risk from eating carry out food. You might get a noro virus which affects your digestive system. You could probably ingest a flu virus and not get a respiratory infection.
