Generally speaking, strawberries can be eaten during an outbreak, and the probability of strawberries carrying the New Crown virus is relatively low, so they do not need to be sterilized and only need to be cleaned. 1. According to the current stage of research, the new crown virus is only parasitized in humans or other animals, and can not be directly parasitized on plants, so the strawberry itself does not carry the new crown virus, and will not become a source of infection. 2. After leaving the host, the survival time of the new crown virus is relatively short, usually only survive for a few hours, so the possibility of strawberries attaching live viruses is relatively low. 3. Strawberry growing bases are mainly in China, and the distribution process is sealed and transported in whole boxes, so the possibility of contamination by the new crown virus is also relatively low. When washing strawberries under running water, it is recommended to prolong the rinsing time and use vegetable and fruit detergent to wash strawberries if possible.
