Cornell’s Institute for Food Safety has created a comprehensive website, Food Industry Resources for Coronavirus (COVID-19), to help keep New York’s food processing industry safe during the current pandemic. The website contains key information and allows access to Cornell faculty and experts for up-to-date, industry-specific information.

The website’s guidance includes information that ranges from how to keep a proper social distance and wash hands to more complex issues, such as how to clean and disinfect food manufacturing facilities and food retail stores. The website team collaborated with external groups, including the National Dairy Center network, to ensure food industry-specific guidance to minimize personnel risks due to COVID-19 illness, protect employees, and maintain a functional, safe supply chain, was included.
