I heated it for 2 mins, but then yesterday was first time, hopefully nothing happens in a week time :p

Lol ok. People say food doesn't transmit but everything is so unreliable.

Anything can transmit if it has someone’s fresh sneeze ? on it 

 

Protocol for outside food is to throw away the packing 

sanitise your hands 

heat the food in the same plastic container it was delivered in 

 

this way you will will the virus 

then it’s absolutely safe 

 

just opening it & having it is too risky 

Heat for how long and at what temperature? When does the virus die?

at 56 degree virus dies. it should take microwave about 2 mins to reach this temperature.

Ok so 2-2.5 minutes should be good.

It's 56 degrees for 30 mins. Not instant. 

65 degrees, 15 mins.

70 degrees, 5 mins. 

95 degrees, 3 mins.

Damn then how much time in oven then? No idea about internal temperature.

Here in Kerala there's a rush to open up, probably so businesses don't lose out on the Onam shopping boom. New records for number of cases are being broken every day and they decide to open up markets and malls with excuses like ''restrictions must be strictly followed'' and ''police will ensure social distancing''. By the looks of this, we're going to have a massive spike in cases just in time for Onam, and I guess people really don't care anymore.

I though microwave produces a heating effect in such a way that every particle of the item being microwaved gets heated up.. Unlike the way the heat is transmitted when you heat something over gas for example..

Is it not so?
Otherwise I usually heat up packed restaurant food based on the temperature.. If I find that the food is already hot enough, I just give it a 30sec microwave so that the container itself gets sanitized as I feel the food should not have any virus as its hot
Should I be heating it for more duration?

No idea tbh. 

 

Check with your MW guide if it mentions temps and duration.

just spin it for 2 mins, and eat it up, since food is already cooked it should be anyway OK. just transfer to other container, and doesn't seem it is spreading by cooked food, or there would already have been a huge uproar related to it. We are getting way too much paranoid these days.
