For all the information about shipping in China during COVID, see this week’s report (week 21). Highlights include that China has implemented additional COVID-19 measures related to new strains. Additional reports are listed below, including quarantine requirements in China’s main ports. All data comes directly from our agent in China, Ocean Favor – the biggest non-state-owned shipping agency in China.

Here’s a quick preview of some of the newest information on shipping in China during COVID and links to four key additional reports:

Additional COVID-19 measures

• Some Chinese ports have implemented stricter quarantine measures. This includes PCR tests for crew on vessels calling from Indian ports.

Regional gap in vaccinations expected to close

• The regional gap in the country’s mass vaccination campaign is a natural outcome of its staggered immunization approach, temporary constraints on production capacity and varying enthusiasm for getting vaccinated.
• China’s step-by-step approach will be bolstered by expanding production later this year.
