2 metre distancing is the FOOL answer - the FULL answer is that people travelling through/into/ other peoples air bubbles can also catch the virus . ½ an hour of Supermarkets filtered air circulation is not as safe as ½ hour in an aeroplane.
# With a suggested 72 hours life span, travel distance of 2 or 3 metres there needs to be a safer way to shop.
# Accept that people are travelling into and through other peoples air bubbles .
# The legivity of COVID 19 needs to be as serious a consideration as distancing.
Currently to traverse the aisles at the local supermarket be prepared for the 100 metre trolley push.
Rod Derrett 1962 - KIWI EXPRESS should give our song writers inspiration re the perspiration and frustration to cover the 100 metre trolley push, with the self imposed handicap for backtracking because their list was not in order.
Then eventually the arrival at the cough up area - well the pay up area - that takes its toll.
If (Rudyard Kipling's poem could be consideration at keeping our heads and not laying blame) there is a better way.
To reduce the time, distance and passing through multiple air zone bubbles, Instead of aisles upon aisles, an isle - a fast island set up, with the basics, with stock replaced when it is getting low, not 24 hours later when the night staff have done their job, causing customers having to go back again to get what wasn't there, and maybe gone again - perhaps they got that cunning plan from Baldrick.
If you only want the basics say a top up of 20 items or so, imagine if they were all within a few metres reach. Think of the time saved. Think of the reduced risk.
Well maybe they may will have a variation if there is another outbreak.
MAYBE they may see that they have more happier customers with less outlay and more prophets telling them it is a good thing to do. Though they will be more interested in the profits.

“See I got my hair cut on Friday. I've got my hair band to keep it up. See? Like this I keep it up.
Biscuit Blair - she's my favourite woman. And you. And that cheeky lady over there.
My last name is Rule. I'll write it down for you, you silly old duff.
I was born on West Coast. I moved here when I was a little girl.
I like doing pictures here that’s why I like pictures. Doing art. I like going for a walk. I come here Monday, Tuesday, Wednesday, Thursday.
My sister, I go see her on Saturday. Have a cup of coffee, at home. She's five, nine. 59. I'm five, seven, 57. This year I'll be 58. My birthday's on a Thursday. I'm having chocolate cake and pizza. And lolly ice cream.
Some people are noisy. Nicholas, and Peter and Chris, they are my friends and that giggly girt over there.
I get headache sometimes at other work, because noisy.
I'm happy here. I could go for a walk if I want to. I'm good.”
