Would it be prudent to delay the election? Is there any Constitutionally sound way to do so?

"The dates of presidential elections — the Tuesday after the first Monday in November in every fourth year — are enshrined in federal law and would require an act of Congress to change. The Constitution makes no provisions for a delay to the Jan. 20, 2021 presidential inauguration."

No, it would not be prudent to delay the election. And, while there may be a Constitutionally sound way of doing so, it would not be possible in the time left before the next election.
