The new coronavirus cannot be transmitted through goods manufactured in China or any country reporti

Even though the new coronavirus can stay on surfaces for a few hours or up to several days (depending on the type of surface), it is very unlikely that the virus will persist on a surface after being moved, travelled, and exposed to different conditions and temperatures. If you think a surface may be contaminated, use a disinfectant to clean it. After touching it, clean your hands with an alcohol-based hand rub or wash them with soap and water.23c-goods-manufactured-in-china-typo-corrected.png

"VERY UNLIKELY" are the keys words in that piece of propaganda.  Truth be known, no one really knows that.

 

The important point is to use disinfectant on surfaces and wash your hands.

Although that is true people are panicking.  When you consider how long it takes for a package to arrive here from China it is unlikely that any virus could live long enough to cause infection.   You have to understand the mechanism for infection and viruses require a host to replicate. I have spent 40 years working in community health.
