Global Shipping Operations Stalled as COVID-19 Raids Chinese Ports
Chinese ports are being raided by a renewed wave of the rampaging COVID-19 pandemic. As a result, global shipping is being interrupted for months due to the epidemic.
Demand for Asian goods from western countries has exceeded exporters’ ability to ship containers overseas.
But at Yantian Port in Shenzhen, one of the world’s major container ports, the recent COVID outbreak has made the situation worse.
At the beginning of this month, the capacity to handle containers at Yantian Port dropped sharply. The port announced that as of June 24, the overall operation of the Yantian International Container Terminal has been fully restored; however, its current operation is 30% lower than the actual capacity.
