Hmm. I'm inclined to agree, since the only way to non-chemically disinfect stuff is by heating them to +30C, and that sounds like something that would be hard with wool.
Then again, if the wool would be sitting 3+ days in a hot truck on its way to you, that would probably get rid of the virus if it was in the wool. It really depends on what route the package would take and how good they are at watching for that sort of thing along the way. Postal workers need to wear gloves and wash their hands over here when handling materials that are suspected to be contaminated, but the temperatures are in the 0-10C range rn so that extends the lifetime of the virus on surfaces.
