At the moment I can't understand why there is still open sale of bread etc. I observed yesterday how many people touch everything, cough into it etc.... I think it's a bit inappropriate at the moment. Fruit and vegetables can be washed or cooked, bread can't. You won't find even a small disinfection station anywhere. Bad thing dear Migros

Hello @kapha According to current scientific knowledge, transmission of the pathogen to humans via food is unlikely. Food, including food from open sale, can be consumed without hesitation. The relevant transmission route is from person to person. Therefore, compliance with the FOPH hygiene rules, in particular thorough hand washing, is also sufficient when handling returned goods. And yes, I understand you. You shouldn't touch everything and then put it back again. Best regards Sebastian

Hi Kapha These are the official figures from the Federal Office of Public Health (FOPH). You can also find them at this link: https://www.bag.admin.ch/bag/de/home/krankheiten/ausbrueche-epidemien-pandemien/aktuelle-ausbrueche-epidemien/novel-cov/haeufig-gestellte-fragen.html Best regards Filip

Here is an excerpt from the RKI How can you protect yourself from infection with the virus through food and products? Although transmission of the virus via contaminated food or imported products is unlikely, the general rules of everyday hygiene such as regular hand washing and the hygiene rules for preparing food (https://www.bfr.bund.de/cm/350/verbrauchertipps_schutz_vor_ lebensmittelinfektionen_im_privathaushalt.pdf) should be observed when handling these. As the viruses are sensitive to heat, the risk of infection can be further reduced by heating food. Unfortunately, the goods are lying open and are no longer heated. Migros should think more about hygiene in such cases. But no matter....For the time being, I will avoid Migros or at least only buy pre-packaged goods. Because Coop offers a lot more. That concludes my opinion on the matter.

The bread that you can buy in our stores is wrapped in paper. Pastries and smaller baked goods are also placed in a box in most stores, which is often wrapped in Plexiglas. We also provide tongs for pastries. So measures are already being taken in this area to increase hygiene. Best regards Filip

Yes in Muttenz and Basel too, even without Plexiglas.
