The global COVID-19 pandemic during 2020 has led to the infection of 25 million people, causing deaths to 850000 and a serious economic crisis. Despite the fact that due to the pandemic economic growth and production was decreased, leading to a decrease in pollution in general, some specific pollution have emerged as a result of efforts to fight COVID-19. In such situation water can be waived as means of enabling hygienic conditions and raw material for industry, while at the other side wastewater can be assumed as a media for infection spreading. In this context, food production, considering it from field to shelf, food can be affected and contaminated. Risk occurs when contaminated water is used for food production, or when people engaged in production are proven to be infected. Therefore, special care has to be taken respecting safety measures during drinking water preparation and food production, as well as conducting proper wastewater treatment.
