Stay well. Stay safe (Meaning) A man was about to leave and said, "Stay well. Stay safe." What did he mean by "stay well" and by "stay safe"? Besides I wonder if "Be well. Be safe" means the same. Is it common to say "stay well" and "stay safe"? if not, what is another way to say that?

"Stay well, stay safe" is a bit more common. However, both are accepted and they both mean pretty much the same thing! If it helps, you can think of it as the equivalence of the despedida, "cuídate" en Español!

Normally, people don’t say it. They usually say “good bye” or “see you later”. Because of covid-19 people are worried about getting sick. So it has become an idiomatic expression, reminding others to “stay safe” and “stay well”. #stayhomestaysafe is also a hashtag online.
