Can you do an outdoor handover?  Meet the person outside the office,
talk to them from 10+ feet away, put the package down on the sidewalk
and back away from it.  Then I guess they can approach it in a hazmat
suit, pick it up with tongs, and disinfect it with a plasma torch or
something like that.

Yes, please be careful.  Ordinary precautions do pretty well at avoiding
"Covid classic" but the new UK strain is far more transmissible
(reproduction rate supposedly 0.7 to 0.9 higher than the old version).
We are in for a rough ride.
