Questions and answers (European Commission) What is the risk of infection with COVID-19 through food products?Despite the magnitude of the pandemic, no transmission of COVID-19 through food consumption has been reported to date.Therefore, as the European Food Safety Authority points out, there is no evidence that food poses a risk to public health in relation to COVID-19.The main mode of transmission of COVID-19 is considered to be from person to person, mainly through the respiratory droplets produced by infected people when sneezing, coughing, or exhaling.As a food business operator, can I request guarantees from my suppliers regarding COVID-19?No.

Requesting a certificate of being virus-free is not justified, since there is no evidence that food poses a risk to public health in relation to COVID-19.Therefore, any request for such guarantees is disproportionate and, consequently, unacceptable.
