During these days how we safe from corona virus by changing our hygiene level of food#

When it comes to food, the coronavirus outbreak has halted many everyday activities, like going out to eat at restaurants. It has also dramatically altered tasks like shopping for groceries. But should it change how we prepare food at home?

While no reported cases of COVID-19 have been linked to contaminated food or food packaging, experts are advising people to practice good hygiene and stay extra vigilant when handling food for cooking these days.

In order to minimize the risk of spreading bacteria or viruses, the Food and Drug Administration recommends following four key steps when preparing food:

1. Clean. Sanitize all cooking surfaces and wash your hands thoroughly before starting to cook. Don't forget to thoroughly wash all produce, too.
2. Separate. Separate raw meats from other ingredients and avoid contamination by establishing different work surfaces and utensils for raw ingredients.
3. Cook. Always cook food to the recommended temperature to kill off foodborne pathogens.
4. Chill. Do not let food sit out on the table for too long after a meal. Refrigerate (or freeze) leftovers promptly.
