A：在新冠肺炎疫情期间，所有人都必须居家不能外出，我们现在都不知道做什么是安全的，什么是不安全的。为了遏制新冠肺炎疫情的蔓延，全国各地的餐馆也仅限外卖。在这个不确定的时刻。点外卖是安全的吗? B: I heard that there is no evid

A: As people are required to stay at home during COVID-19, it can be hard to know what is or isn’t safe. Restaurants across the country are limited to takeout or delivery only in an effort to curb the spread of COVID-19. In this time of uncertainty, is it safe to order food?
B：我听说没有证据表明新冠病毒可以通过食物或食品包装传播。有研究表明，这种病毒可以在空气中存活数小时，在类似塑料这样的表面上可以存活长达三天。但这项研究是在实验室中进行的，实验室的环境跟真实生活还是不一样的。
A: I assume it’s OK to have most of our favorite takeaways, from pizza to stir-fries since they are cooked at very high temperatures. Heat almost certainly inactivates the virus. But what about cold food such as salad?
B：冷餐问题也不大，因为通过食物感染新冠肺炎的风险是非常低的，主要还是人际传播。所以如果要点外卖，最好先给餐厅打个电话，询问一下他们的操作流程。
A: Yes! Are they practicing social distancing in the restaurant with limited staff? Are they washing their hands even more often? Are they taking payment information over the phone or through an app. These are all important questions we need to check beforehand.
B：我认为无接触外卖服务真的很有必要，因为新冠肺炎最大的隐患就是人际互动。如果我叫一个比萨外卖，快递员把它放在我的门口，然后给我发短信，告诉我货已送达，我们就不必互相交谈，如果能这样就放心多了。
