I just received a Macbook which was shipped from China 5 days ago. Is it safe to open it and use with out wiping with a chemical wipe and ruining the screen ?

Leave it in a garage or somewhere for a 2-3 more days if you don't want to use a chemical wipe. If it's sunny and doesn't rain and you don't have theft problems, leave it outside for a day or two.
If you are in the US, I would be more concerned on whether your delivery route driver is infected rather than China.
edit: If anything, wipe the keyboard and trackpad, you don't need to touch the screen
