Your Groceries Are Okay

The Washington State Department of Health says groceries do not need to be disinfected

You don’t need to disinfect your groceries. The Washington State Department of Health has laid out some ground rules for safe grocery shopping and eating. Here’s a key takeaway:

“We have no evidence to suggest that COVID-19 is spreading through food at all. Not through take-out orders, groceries, or produce. When you return home from the grocery store, please thoroughly wash your hands, but there is no reason to try to disinfect your groceries. And please, don’t put disinfecting chemicals like household cleaners on the food you’re going to eat.”
