Wash the Groceries?? [View all]

Early in the pandemic it was recommended that all items, especially food items, be disinfected upon entry to the house by washing with soap & water or spraying with beach or some-such thing. I have seen little of that advice lately and am wondering if it is still thought that Covid can be transmitted by contact with such possibly contaminated surfaces/objects? Or, is it air transmission & bodily contact only?

Hoping that method of transmission is no longer thought to be significant - one less thing to worry about...
