Uptick in shipping demand as China loosens Covid restrictions
06 Dec, 2022
The loosening of Covid restrictions in China has coincided with a “surprising uptick” in shipping demand.
According to reports, some Chinese cities have eased controls following widespread anti-lockdown protests; in Beijing, Shenzhen and Shanghai, PCR testing for commuters using public transport has been scrapped.
Policy change has already taken place in Tianjin, Chengdu and Chongqing, while some communities have been told they can now quarantine at home instead of a government facility, the reports said.
