I got an ongoing dispute regarding a "damaged" item, it was posted here back in January. The buyer (in China?) is obviously unsatisfied. I'm not sure if he returned the item now for inspection, in order to file an insurance claim, I would accept/open it.
To the OP, I'd say no, let someone else be the guinea pig
Reality check, that half the population is smarter then 50% of the people and it's a constantly contested fact.

Im the posterboy for this dang virus. 98844 is Oroville. WAY up on the Canadian border. Extremely rural, unpopulated. WAY off the beaten path. No concern.

Getting anything in the mail should be OK. But.....
If at all worried then take some precautions. 1. Mix 1/4 cup of household bleach in a quart of water. 2. Wear a N-95 rated dust mask when opening the package. Blue 'Smurff' gloves too. 3. Using paper towels, being careful not to cross contaminate . Use a fresh towel and never redip a used towel in the bleach. DAMP wipe the package down and then all the items inside the package. Use caution as bleach can ruin many items. Wipe down the surrounding areas and your hands with clean bleached towels. 4. Wipe the bleached items with clear water.
EDITED: Removed Kirkland references.

Go to Costco and look at all the store brands. KIRKLAND.
Yepper, same city.

So you are insinuating that “Kirkland Signature” items carry an elevated risk for the general public? Please explain.

Media hysteria. More people die from the flu. If people are that afraid they should crawl in a bubble and seal it up.

This is really getting pathetic when people are afraid to buy a car part. I agree. And From someone in the same STATE as a victim. And then they hear “Kirkland” and they freak. Hey, I bet all the one dollar bills in your wallet are infected! That’s George WASHINGTON!
