Whether or not salmon can be eaten during a new coronavirus depends largely on the source of the salmon. If salmon originates from the infected area, it is not recommended to eat it. This is not because the salmon itself carries the novel coronavirus, because the possibility of fish carrying the coronavirus is very small, but because salmon needs to be chilled during transportation and there is a novel coronavirus on the surface of the salmon, this environment may facilitate the import of the novel coronavirus from the infected area. In addition, it is recommended that salmon or other seafood, meat, poultry and eggs be fully cooked before consumption during the outbreak. Because the novel coronavirus is sensitive to heat, it can be effectively inactivated by heating at 56°C for 30 minutes.
