One of the questions I had early was whether or not this virus could be transmitted via shipping in packaging. With Amazon being so massive and there being certain cities hit harder than others, there should have been at least some focus on packaging which came from China (seems it wasn't of interest, as most problems with China aren't with MSM and big donors).
The realization of this virus found in packaging of food, certainly doesn't decrease the questions I'd like answered on this broader subject.
Traces of coronavirus found in frozen chicken wings, shrimp packaging in China
Two cities in China have found traces of the new coronavirus in imported frozen food and on food packaging, local authorities said on Thursday, raising fears that contaminated food shipments might cause new outbreaks.
A sample taken from the surface of frozen chicken wings imported into the southern city of Shenzhen from Brazil, as well as samples of outer packaging of frozen Ecuadorian shrimp sold in the northwestern Xi’An city, have tested positive for the virus, local authorities said on Thurs.
The discoveries came a day after traces of the coronavirus that causes COVID-19 were found on the packaging of frozen shrimp from Ecuador in a city in eastern Anhui province. China has been stepping up screenings at ports amid the concerns over food imports.
