Can I eat the tomatoes from a plant that has fusarium wilt?

I have a plant that I am pretty sure has fusarium wilt but it has some green tomatoes on it. I was wondering if the tomatoes are ok to eat. I was going to pick them and get rid of the plant.

    I know of no reason that you can not eat them. But that virus is spread by insects. so to keep it from spreading, get rid of the plant.

    if they show no signs of decay place them in a dark cupboard to ripen .

    you can also use the green ones to make chutney
