One source, âyou probably donât need to worry about getting coronavirus from the packages youâre ordering, but hereâs what you can do to be sureâ. See Don't Worry About Getting Coronavirus From Packages - Business Insider

You will. I have multiple packages coming from outside and they are all in transit. And theyâll reach unless thereâs restriction on cargos too

Iâve got packages from Japan, Indonesia, The Philippines , and Singapore over the past week or 2. Havenât had a problem, but I wouldnât order anything from China, cause it might get quarantined for a year.

I think items have to be submerged in a bucket of hand cleaner and packed in the box with face masks instead of bubble wrap.

Thats how im sending all my packages any way. But I hermetically seal all my boxes too as an extra precaution.

I have your bloodcell coming in that just left Australia today, and two lightsabers LITERALLY FROM WUHAN CHINA arriving today. The sabers are coming DHL so results may vary, but I donât see why we wouldnât get them. Perhaps a delay due to lower staffing in customs facilities and general transportation chains.

Our local Church is full of em and theyre are just dying to get out and about regardless of the current pandemic. Initially I did found it hard getting them in the box but I worked it out.

your dedication to your craft is admirable @zerocool, bravo!
im afraid id be refusing the lightsabers at the door. Or maybe 10 feet down the drive.

Nah Iâve been waiting a WHILE for them. Also Me and my wife both work in a contact center of like 500 people, and today is my first work from home day. If we were gonna get it, we got it.

I damn well hope so in order to receive my new yoyo 
Otherwise im pretty sure that trade is still open. However I just ordered some stuff on Amazon, and the shipping guarantee has been delayed a bit, so perhaps it will take longer than usual.

As far as Iâve heard, the US is still receiving goods from overseas, and according to the CDC, itâs not likely that youâll get coronavirus through a package, esp given how long it takes for things to ship internationally.
Edit: TL;DR coronaviruses donât seem to survive well on surfaces period and especially in the conditions packages are exposed to.
Edit 2: But obvs exercise caution and disinfect packages and wash your hands to be extra safe.
I posted from the UK today and they are still shipping to the US and the US is still receiving shipments as of now, Ive been informed, albeit things might take a little longer than usual.
