Numerous confirmed cases of coronavirus are still growing each day and many ask if purchased items of grocery delivery could affect them. A Seattle-based Amazon employee has been claimed test positive for covid-19; Sagawa Express Co., a Japanese delivery service firm announced earlier that one of its drivers had affected the new virus. Considerable merchants and suppliers are based in China where Wuhan is conceived as the ground for the epidemic. As such, some ask questions if they should be concerned about the parcels or packages from places like China. The short scientific answer to this is: No.
“There’s no evidence that there’s been spread from infected mail or packages,” said Michael Merson, a special adviser at the New York University School of Global Public Health.
“This is why our lockers make delivery service industry’s day,” said the President of Dongcheng Electronic, one of the biggest suppliers and manufacturers of smart lockers. “With our electric locker system, people can access their parcels or packages freely and safely, and you don’t be afraid of the physical contact by our lockers because there wouldn’t be any”. Some delivery service companies like New Zealand Post have introduced a dropout system- knock on the door and then get back soon. But suppliers like Dongcheng Electronic can guarantee a safer and highly efficient way to express delivery industry through a smart locker system.
“The delivery locker is the self-serving end device and management system mainly used for e-commerce and logistics business. It can satisfy the function for the customer to pick up packages with convenience and safety, which saves the human delivery resources, and improve the delivery efficiency.” said the President of Dongcheng Electronic.
The express delivery industry was deeply concerned with the outbreak virus globally. It is seemingly the fact that such a pandemic would pose a threat to global business. However, contracting the virus is not going to be an issue if people are ordering online or even internationally said Xi Chen, assistant professor of public and global health and economics at the Yale School of Public Health. Now in America, given the current serious situation, many apartments are using package lockers to receive online groceries for the sake of zero contact delivery.
Chen said viruses similar to the coronavirus, such as SARS and MERS, like low temperatures and low humidity, which aren’t consistent in transit.
“It’s important to be alert but there is no need of being panic.” said the president of Dongcheng Electronic. The application of smart lockers, including parcel locker, refrigerator locker, and food warm locker, enables individuals to freely access the goods they order online. If people cannot go to crowded places like markets or grocery stores, then online shopping is the option for everyone. E-commerce is rising in 2020. This accelerates the delivery service industry and certainly, Dongcheng Electronics will play a role in it. With the advanced technology and artificial intelligence applied to smart locker systems, purchasers would soon realize how necessary and satisfactory the lockers would help with their consumers.
DHL, the world’s largest logistics company, has announced the statement on their website, claiming the hurdles of sending parcels and packages. In some countries that the virus has reached, it would be dangerous for their couriers to distribute and provide delivery service. Local authorities have limited further contact and established strict rules to prevent the virus from spreading further. However, if it’s zero contact and careful express delivery for the public, there would not be any worries of spreading.
Dongcheng Electronic are actively watching the developing situation of coronavirus and taking safety and health issue seriously. “We have sent care and guidance to our people and customers to provide some help with the current issue. ” the president said.
