Go to Costco and look at all the store brands. KIRKLAND.
Yepper, same city.
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.
So you are insinuating that “Kirkland Signature” items carry an elevated risk for the general public? Please explain.
No. Not at all. I was just pointing out about the Kirkland WA "Phobia" of this thread. Seems people are panicking over anything from Washington State. Finish reading my post. Just yesterday I got 5 sets of China made kits. Today I opened 4 boxes of High/Low beam headlight relay kits from China. I am modifying them for Suzuki Motorcycles to take the headlight amparage off the ignition switch and its 18 gauge wiring (Just like our crap MOPAR headlight wiring). So I gloved up, then opened the packages and wiped them down with Clorox Wipes. This is really getting pathetic when people are afraid to buy a car part. ^^^ This Exactly!

And as wise as you can tell yourself you are, your clueless about others situation. So you are insinuating that “Kirkland Signature” items carry an elevated risk for the general public? Please explain. How can you tell me with 100% certainty there isnt? Go to Costco and look at all the store brands. KIRKLAND.

This is really getting pathetic when people are afraid to buy a car part. Blame the breathless media for this crap, not the consumer. All to sell ad space/destabilize the market. I wonder how much insider trading is going on during this "crisis."

Well what I have learned in recent times, call anything you disagree with a "hoax", call any precaution someone else takes that you didn't think of or dismiss outright, as "panic", like those who religiously wear seat belts I guess.. Some people need the physiological confirmation of belonging to a group, no matter how safe, smart or risky. As per "Raiders of the lost Ark", " Chose wisely" https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=c3RN9zz77Cs

Reality check, that half the population is smarter then 50% of the people and it's a constantly contested fact.

Yep, im really over reacting. Moments after King County health officials announced that the state's death toll had risen to five, another official said an additional death occurred in Snohomish County, bringing the tally to six. The new cases bring the total number of confirmed COVID-19 instances in the state to 18, including eight of which have been linked to Life Care Center of Kirkland, which is currently experiencing an outbreak. Another hospitalized patient involves a man in his 50's with no known previous exposure. My lungs are so bad I cant use bleach, cant use dam near anything, luckly dawn dish soap/water in a spray bottle can do any normal household cleanup. https://www.foxnews.com/health/washington-state-announces-3-new-coronavirus-deaths

So by most reports I read the final death song for Covid is from pneumonia complications.
Have you had either or both of the two common pneumonia vaccines?
