Time to go back to the old method of store keeping in which it is set up like a bank. Person comes in and hands the clerk a shopping list, he gives it to a boy to fill. Then the boy brings the items to the front, and is paid for over the counter.

At no time does the shopper get to go back behind the counter.

Sad time we have allowed the US to get into this mess.

Updated model: set of touchscreen kiosks, you select the items you want, it gets assembled into an order (possibly assisted by a picker robot), you pay, you get your merchandise. The Amazon model, in a storefront.
