Question CV Lifespan on Takeout Food and Fresh Produce

[michaelm101]

Ok, so I've learned this thing can live on cardboard for 24 hours,

So, who's to say it's not gonna survive on the burger or pizza I order from delivery?
How about the moist, fresh spinach and cilantro I get at the supermarket?

Can it live on frozen vegetables, if by chance, it gets on there?

Thanks in advance!

Wipe off the container with disinfectant (like diluted bleach) and heat the food inside.

Coronaviruses can survive in low temps. But soap and common household disinfectants will kill them. I just wipe diluted bleach on the vegetable bag, wait 10 minutes, and freeze it.
