It seems like it takes me a lot longer to complete my shopping and doesn’t that mean we are all spending more time in an enclosed area? So how is that safer?
I’m not trying to be argumentative, just trying to understand. Anyone?

I have asked for a rational explanation but have not read any responses that have any basis in logic . Just some inane comments like the one that compared it to parking lot lanes. You are correct. The average time a shopper spends in the store go up. It also forces more people to the front of the store where it is already congested due to the social distancing in the check out lines.
But it does give some people a sense of smug self righteousness that they are doing what they are told. I guess that is worth something.
