Not only do we need to wash our hands with soap and water, but our fruit and veggies also.

According to virologist Timothy Newsome, not only can the COVID-19 stick to surfaces, it can also stick to our fresh produce.

Timothy Newsome says, "We have to remember that every surface is potentially contaminated. And like with any surface there is a risk. We don't see it as high risk because that comes from sustained contact with other people, but nonetheless it's important to be mindful."

Timothy Newsome is an associate professor at the University of Sydney and specializes in infection, vaccines and virology. Newsome has also been following along closely as the coronavirus restrictions heighten in Australia.
