What are we doing
Convid-19: We work closely with the University Of Minnesota Extension this is what they have:
“Currently there is no evidence of food or food
packaging being associated with transmission of COVID-19. Because of its low
survival rate on surfaces, there is thought to be little evidence of
transmission via food surfaces, packaging, cardboard, plastic etc Research recently published in the New England
Journal of Medicine states that coronavirus is thought to persist on surfaces like
plastic and metal for up to 3 days, cardboard up to 24 hours, and in the air
for up to 3 hours.
The virus is enveloped in a lipid envelope, and is not stable or persistent in the
environment, like norovirus or other foodborne pathogens. Again, at this time
the primary transmission route is person-to-person contact via respiratory
droplets. That is not to say that food or food packaging could never transmit
the virus, but it is not the primary transmission route. ”
