この点について, the reporter interviewed Luan Rongsheng, chairman of the Epidemiology Branch of the Sichuan Preventive Medicine Association and professor of epidemiology at the West China School of Public Health of Sichuan University, and he answered this series of questions.
Can I still eat imported cherries?
ルアン・ロンシェン: The problem is not big. さくらんぼでも他の果物でも, they are washed or peeled before eating. Although the surface of the fruit may be contaminated during processing, 取り扱い, and transportation, it is generally possible to remove most of the virus on the surface of the fruit after cleaning.
Will eating contaminated cherries catch the new crown?
ルアン・ロンシェン: The new coronavirus has no digestive tract transmission route, so even if a small amount of the virus enters the human body through the digestive tract, it will not be infected. さらに, animal experiments have also shown that after feeding contaminated food to animals, there is no infection and spread of animals, so the public does not need to be overly concerned or panic about this matter.
Then why is there a phenomenon of cold chain food/items passing from person to person?
ルアン・ロンシェン: Cold chain food refers to perishable food that is purchased or harvested from the place of origin, and must be kept in a low temperature environment during product processing, 保管所, 交通手段, distribution, and retail until it reaches consumers.
And why is there a phenomenon of cold chain food/items passing from person to person? Because the frozen food itself is in a low temperature state, 汚染されている場合, the virus will survive for a longer time. 第二に, in frozen food processing places, the temperature is lower and the space is relatively closed. このとき処理場所に感染源があれば, it will cause person-to-person or material-to-person transmission. With more sources of infection, the chances of spreading the virus to the outside are greater, so the chance of cold chain food being contaminated is also greater.
しかし, fruits are different from cold chain foods. Fruits cannot be frozen or frozen for a long time. 加えて, the environment where they are located is ventilated, and the temperature is relatively higher than that of cold chain foods, and the virus cannot survive on the surface of the fruit for too long. , So the possibility of virus on the surface of the fruit is unlikely. And there are no cases of infection through eating fruits, so this risk is extremely low. And the public can also remove most of the virus on the surface of the fruit by washing with water.
加えて, the physical transmission of cold chain food is not the infected person eating cold chain food, しかし、接触によって広がる. あれは, hands and other body parts come in contact with contaminated frozen food or contaminated packaging, そして口に触れる, 目, and nose with their hands to become infected. And what can be spread through contact is also exposure to high concentration of large droplets and high concentration of contaminated frozen food/objects.
How to clean cherries correctly?
ルアン・ロンシェン: Clean with running water. For other fruits that can be peeled, it is recommended to eat them after peeling.
How are national imported goods killed or quarantined?
ルアン・ロンシェン: Imported goods have to pass two barriers. The first is the import quarantine link, それは税関の責任です. Inspection and quarantine includes the quarantine of people, 動物, plants, and articles. The contamination rate of imported cold chain food is one in several hundred thousand, これは非常に低いです. The second is food safety, which is the responsibility of the Food and Drug Administration. この二つの障壁がある限り, the risk is extremely low when the product reaches the consumer.
What should consumers pay attention to daily?
ルアン・ロンシェン: For consumers, they should pay attention to food hygiene and cook other foods that can be cooked before eating.
