According to the expert, it is impossible to contract the coronavirus through food.

Li Fengqin, China health expert and head of the Food Safety Risk Assessment Lab, says there is no human infection in the world COVID-19 through food.

Coronavirus cannot be transmitted through food, but if the food was touched by a person infected with the coronavirus, then viral particles will remain on its surface.
It is important to understand the nuances here, food cannot be contaminated, the virus will not multiply in it. But there is a danger that the viral particles were on the packaging or the food was touched by a person who had the virus on his hands. And in this case, food becomes as dangerous as doorknobs or our mobile phone.
The expert called for washing fruits and vegetables, as well as packaging of goods purchased in the store, to reduce risks.
