Can I please ask if you have any evidence that Covid can be contracted via food service, ie take-away? Can droplets can be ingested, therefore spreading infection? Thanks @MarylouiseMcla1

Hello Batgirl - COVID-19 droplets survive on hard surfaces (infectious dose not yet known). If concerned, wipe over takeaway package. No infection has been found from eating food and cooked food. šŸ˜‹

Hi - any more insight on infectious dose? The only estimates I've seen were from Jennifer Kasten: "The infectious dose of the MERS coronavirus is between 1000-10,000 virions, to produce symptoms. Estimates are SARS-CoV-2 will be in the high 100s/low1000s."
