The CDC’s National Center for Immunization and Respiratory Diseases (NCIRD) said on June 25 that the CCP virus or the novel coronavirus can spread through food and food packaging under certain conditions, though no evidence has yet come to light.

“It is possible that a person can get COVID-19 by touching a surface or object, including food or food packaging, that has the virus on it and then touching their own mouth, nose, or possibly their eyes,” said the federal agency.
