Does the coronavirus spread through food

Ryan Zia Arslaan

Coronavirus or COVID-19 is the biggest pandemic of the 21st century, its outbreak spread like fire in the woods and spared no section of society. It can spread by air, water, soil by drinking, air droplets etc. Recent reports suggest that the virus spreads more by person to person contact rather than through other mediums, specifically food. The COVID spread is mainly by person to person and we found out that many areas of necessary research remain unexplored, such as the lifetime of viruses on the food surface. It is suggested that the consumers sanitise food packings to get surface level protection, not the food. Boycotting food vendors is not a solution.
