The closure of a terminal at Ningbo-Zhoushan port came after a worker was infected with Covid-19.

Jason Chiang from Ocean Shipping Consultants told the BBC's Asia Business Report that the global shipping industry is likely to feel the impact of the pandemic for several more months.

Then came the Ever Given, which blocked the Suez canal for six days, delaying hundreds of vessels and causing knock-on effects that lasted for weeks. Shipping lines are pretty happy, because container rates are sky high. For importers it's a different matter. A district close to the port has also been put on partial lockdown as businesses including cinemas, gyms and bars have been shut.
