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.

Probably there is no reason to suspect that the packages from the originated area .Because this is a respiratory virus similar to that of Flu.While spreading of Flu we didnt stop receiving packages
