In theory, the imported fruits during the epidemic period can still be eaten.
At present, the epidemic situation in foreign countries is still relatively serious. The number of people infected with COVID-19 in the world has exceeded 111 million, and the cumulative number of deaths has exceeded 2.14 million.
In many foreign countries, the epidemic prevention and control in China is not done well, so people may be infected in all aspects of commodity production, including fruit planting and sales industries.
These imported fruits are likely to have been polluted during planting and transportation, but we don't have to worry too much. As long as we do a good job in all aspects, we can still eat these imported fruits safely.
first, do a good job of disinfection of outer packaging.
The imported fruits that we bought off-line or online may come into contact with infected Covid-19 workers during transportation, so the first time we receive these fruits, we need to disinfect the outer packaging completely.
generally, medical alcohol with a concentration higher than 75% can be put in a small spray bottle, and then the outer packaging of the purchased imported fruit can be fully sprayed and disinfected, and then it can be left for a few minutes, so that the virus on the outer packaging of the fruit can be removed.
However, the disinfected package should be disposed of in time to avoid secondary pollution to the environment. Then, clean and disinfect your hands and wash your hands with hand sanitizer for more than 21 seconds.
second, thoroughly clean the imported fruits.
after the above disinfection treatment, the fruit should be thoroughly cleaned. This can prevent the fruit from being polluted when picking and prevent us from being infected.
Because it takes a certain period of time for fruits to be picked, boxed and transported to our hands, some viruses with weak activity may no longer exist or there is no danger of infection during this period.
However, some super-strong viruses still have certain infectivity, so the imported fruits should be cleaned in time to completely remove the viruses attached to them. Of course, the containers that are finally cleaned must also be disinfected.
the imported fruits that have been cleaned and disinfected above can be safely eaten.
