Please approve... Is it true that one cant catch covid-19 by eating even contaminated food with coronavirus as stomach harsh environment kills the viruses. How about viral exposure to throat while consuming food?
Not confirmed depends on lot of factors. How long the virus droplets have stayed on food like if cook sneezes on it or mishandled food. Stomach acid doesnt kill virus totally.
