Lv Yongpeng said that recently, among the confirmed cases announced by some regions in China, it is suggested that the possibility of contracting the virus through overseas items cannot be ruled out, especially in the environmental samples received by international mail. The nucleic acid test was positive. When people receive overseas mail, express or items, they should wear masks and disposable gloves correctly, and use contactless delivery methods such as smart express boxes as much as possible.
