U are funny. Who told you everything bought from aliexpress comes from china.
Some comes from Singapore. Russia etc.

I am not saying that the viral disease breakout wouldn't affect the workflow of aliexpress. I am only giving reason why it doesn't stop them from working

The question is how long can the virus survive outside a host?

Q: Am I at risk for novel coronavirus from a package or products shipping from China?

There is still a lot that is unknown about the newly emerged 2019 novel coronavirus (2019-nCoV) and how it spreads. Two other coronaviruses have emerged previously to cause severe illness in people (MERS and SARS). 2019-nCoV is more genetically related to SARS than MERS, but both are betacoronaviruses with their origins in bats. While we don’t know for sure that this virus will behave the same way as SARS and MERS, we can use the information from both of these earlier coronaviruses to guide us. In general, because of poor survivability of these coronaviruses on surfaces, there is likely very low risk of spread from products or packaging that are shipped over a period of days or weeks at ambient temperatures. Coronaviruses are generally thought to be spread most often by respiratory droplets. Currently there is no evidence to support transmission of 2019-nCoV associated with imported goods and there have not been any cases of 2019-nCoV in the United States associated with imported goods. Information will be provided on the 2019 Novel Coronavirus website as it becomes available.

But can they survive outside the host for a period of 20-35 days minimum enroute to Nigeria?

some viruses can survive up to 300yrs outside a suitable host and some can withstand a temperature as high as 1000 degree Celsius. Viruses are intricate organisms that can be categorised as both Living and as non living;outside a suitable host they become particles and the moment they gain entrance into the body system they use the hosts cell to replicate. See the borderline is that you can't really understand viral organisms if you are not a virologist or a microbiologist.

The Centers for Disease Control and Prevention (CDC) explains on its website that it's very unlikely to contract coronavirus from a surface.

While a person can carry the virus for days - or even weeks - viruses don't live long outside the body.

This means that if the virus is found on a surface, the lifespan is 'in the range of hours,' according to the CDC.

And because packages go through several different environments before ending up on a doorstep, that makes them less likely to have survived.
