    On February 21, the World Health Organization issued a document giving official opinions and targeted recommendations on the possibility of the new coronavirus spreading through food
    .


    The core views are sorted out and interpreted as follows, for reference by relevant epidemic prevention and control agencies, catering operations, and families


    1.
    Although there are concerns about the spread of the new coronavirus through food, especially raw animal food, there is no evidence in this regard so far
    .


    The food safety authorities of various countries are working closely together, paying close attention to and collecting relevant information for evaluation


     2.
    The existing research evidence about the coronavirus shows that it has strong vitality under low temperature conditions, but maintaining hygiene and correct food safety practices can prevent the coronavirus from spreading through food
    .


    Based on this, please refer to the "Five Keys to Food Safety" proposed by the World Health Organization, namely: keep clean, separate raw and cooked, cook and cook thoroughly, maintain a safe temperature, and clean water and ingredients
