After washing u can store in ur regular store house or use in kitchen.
Only got from grocery deliveries then keep it out in place/ garage for 48-72 hrs ,and then take it in.Aftet touching the groceries delivered just,and contacting any mucus membranes of ur body as eyes mouth nose ears or private parts.if infected carier then may effect u. So wash ur hands after touching any items which are suspicious.

Washing with soap disrupts the shell around the virus, dissolving it in the running water and killing the virus.

Hi , it's same as hand wash . If you wash packets for 30 sec . Then there will be low chance of corona . It's more better to transfer the contains to containers after washing.

I think what you want to know is how to disinfect the packages so as to kill Covid.
One way is to spray with 79% isopropyl alcohol which kills COVID instantaneously
Secondly you can spray with Benzalkonium chloride in dilution as per the manufacturer which kills virus in 30-60 minutes
For hands and body parts ash with soap and water for 20 minutes is recommended
