Hello helpers!!
Its been a long since i have posted any article. Actually i was busy somewhere.
Today i came up with a most searched topic during corona virus days.
Can we eat non-veg during the covid19 pandemic?
Non-veg lovers are very much afraid and dont know whether to eat chicken/mutton or fish within this period.
There is rapid increase of corona virus cases across the world. People are following the guidelines of W.H.O (world health organization), and also believing the misconcepted and fake news across social media. One of the misconcepted news that is widespreading in social media is that eating chicken can lead to corona virus. Due to this reason many people have discontinued eating chicken.
However, in a report of "The Indian Express" there is a denial of this news as there is no relation between chicken and corona virus.
According to G.S.G Ayyangar,Chief of Food Safety and Standards Authority of India (FSSAI), there is no scientific reports that says eating chicken leads to corona virus. According to him this is just a misconception and he fully deny to this fact.
As we all know that corona virus is a respiratory infection which spreads through droplets transmitted in the air by sneezing or coughing. There is no specific report on how coronavirus or any virus can stay on chicken, meat or seafood and make it unfit for consumption. The same goes for eggs.
This misconception is spreading just because the virus is originated from a poultry market in Wuhan,China.
Dr. Laxman Jessani, Consultant, Infectious Disease, Apollo Hospital, believes that no food is actually unsafe, as long as you practice some needed precautions.
Taking precaution is not at all costly. One should take precations in every aspects to keep our immune system healthy.
By doing above steps you will be guaranteed that what you are eating is absouletely safe for consumption.
Lastly I would request all my readers to stay safe and only go outside if it is very necessary.
Do not hesitate to comment if you have any querries.
Thanks!!

Some of the precautionary steps to take while preparing Chicken or any poultry foods are :-
- Select healthy and lively chicken while purchasing. Do not purchase an unhealthy or lazy chicken because it may be a diseased one.
- Always wash each and every piece of chicken before cooking.
- Cook the meat properly and thoroughly for atleast 30 minutes to kill germs and illness-causing viruses.
