Do not stuff raw meat into your nose or inhale raw meat through your mouth.

Viruses don't thrive well on meat or food; they need a living host. WhiskeyGrinder Apr 2020 #7

In time the virus will die on food. But how long does that take? In_The_Wind Apr 2020 #16

A virus requires a live host to stay alive. The meat is perfectly fine to eat and handle. nt Blue_true Apr 2020 #61

So, the virus will be dead by the time we bring it home. In_The_Wind Apr 2020 #71

Unless you buy it directly from the slaughterhouse, it will be dead days before Blue_true Apr 2020 #91
