I can understand that vegetables and leafy greens grown in the flooded areas may be contaminated. But I cannot understand how frozen foods fall into this category, unless they have been submerged by the flood waters. A common sense approach would suffice.

Even the freezers would have been submerged in some of the highly flooded areas. In many areas there were even power failures and power cuts. So meat eaters also should be careful.

Faqi, Because the frozens foods are having long expiry date & it might contaminated by the viruses!!!

Imthiyas - Viruses unlike bacteria do not multiply outside of a living cell in food products and are not complete cells. Viruses enter the food chain by being handeld by an infected employee due to bad personal hygiene or foods harvested in polluted water. So frozen foods are safe unless handled by an infected person. Long expiry date is of no consequence.

Faqi, Frozen foods are sensible than the fresh my dear, so we dont want to worry about the fresh thats much & frozen foods are very danger & easyly contaminate by virus &.....if any food handeld by an infected employee its normaly get the virus!!! but there are many other ways also to get virus to the foods....
