Why lower? The postman that put the mail in her mailbox (or the one that sorted her mail an hour earlier) is somehow less likely to get COVID-19 than the woman that brought the groceries?
We don't know if the woman who was working hard to stay safe was taking precautions from the groceries themselves (vegetables, food containers (esp. cold/frozen)). Nor do we know if she could have been exposed via a pet.
I am someone who hopes he is being overly cautious. You do what you can, but sometimes you make mistakes. For some of us, those few mistakes might cost our life so we avoid them. When you do make mistakes, you hope that others have done what they could to protect you, and you hope that happenstance works in your favor.
I really hope this lady is fortunate enough that she pulls through this without too much damage.
