I don't think they're suggesting that the virus could survive two months on a ship.

You know that and I know that, but is the general public going to believe it, or are they going to play it safe?

Then again, if a virus can survive 24 hours on a surface, what's the upper limit to its survival in a dark shipping container?

And, for anybody that's worried, it should be possible to develop some kind of decontamination procedure that the imports can be put through.
