The BOC Blast 446 – Shanghai COVID Lockdown

Shanghai COVID Lockdown

This morning’s update regarding Shanghai COVID lockdown restrictions:

  • PVG airport closed from today until April 1. PVG is the main international airport for Shanghai. Hongqiao airport will close from April 1 through 5. Hongqiao is mostly for China Domestic Flights and Inter-Asia flights.
  • All Shanghai area factories will be closed. Most factories are not in Shanghai area, but are located outside the area surrounding Shanghai, in Jiangsu/Anhui/Zehjiang Provinces. But the major problem is that the factories outside of Shanghai cannot deliver freight to Shanghai Ocean Ports because trucks are not allowed to enter Shanghai area. Cargo now can only be shipped from these Provinces by either trucking to Ningbo or using river feeder ports to get to Shanghai Loading Ports (Waigaoqiao and Yangshan).

Direct Translation from official Chinese Document sent locally, as follows:

Shanghai locks down as COVID surges in China’s financial hub

Excerpted from Reuters.com

SHANGHAI, March 28 (Reuters) – China’s financial hub of Shanghai launched a two-stage lockdown of its 26 million residents on Monday, closing bridges and tunnels and restricting highway traffic in a scramble to contain surging COVID-19 cases.

The snap lockdown, announced by the local government late on Sunday, will split China’s most populous city roughly along the Huangpu River for nine days to allow for “staggered” testing by healthcare workers in white hazmat suits.

It is the biggest COVID-related disruption to hit Shanghai, and sent prices of commodities including oil and copper lower on fears that any further curbs could hurt demand in China, the world’s second-largest economy. Read more.
