The COVID-19 pandemic has caused logistical headaches for global shippers thanks to raised transport costs, quarantine measures and extra paperwork.
China’s zero-tolerance approach to the coronavirus has not helped: in May it closed one of its busiest ports because of a COVID-19 outbreak.
That has affected the supply of Chinese products to the United States, dampening the Thanksgiving Day holiday sales, when shoppers are traditionally on the hunt for bargains.

China should be held accountable for leaking COVID
This is the purpose of US… Slowing down the shipment after all the Sanctions and Tarrif over Chinese Companies didn’t work
Time to stop buying goods from China.
Americans and American businesses are too cheap for that
Thank your own countries fault what it has come to…. Starting to with the V

We should thanks to india for upgrading reliable version
It’s all done by design, the western central banks are imploding by design as well, it’s to forcefully bringing us into the great reset.
Good thing, people will recycle more in the west
Recycling in West means.. Dumping back in China.. (Oops china banned western waste)..
No Africa is the scrapyard of West
@Oscaar Exports What i mean, when too cheap, people discard more, but when high prices, there will be a market for older bikes.
Maybe more people will take time to repair them as a hobby. I don’t know but am tired to see bikes tossed on the sides of the road or abandoned between halley.
I think anyone who was looking to buy that quality of bicycle doesn’t have the brainpower to fix an old bike anyway.
@siren synapse not sure if you can afford a Giant bike?
@Lilith it’s not hard to
So great that I am being assisted in my BOYCOTT of the murderous Hans
I don’t think u are Anglosaxon..

@Anglosaxon Demise I don’t have insecurities nor committments built around race. I live my life on the side of good and I can compete with anyone.
@Johnny Pham what u think doesn’t matter, u r asian to the whites. BTW do a DNA test, u should be surprised how much u’ve heritaged from the HANs
Uh no, there are 100 ships off of California’s coast that cannot unload because of their stupid rules not allowing over have of truckers in to their state from not allowing trucks older than 2011 to putting priority on big box trucking companies over owner-ops…..then there is the State Police which spends their whole day harassing truckers as well. Throw in the Longshoreman Unions and you get crane operators not working either. That is the issue sick and tired of all these lies.
Nothing new, it sounds like, and there are other ports on the West Coast.
Yeah those complaints about CA ports have been the same for over 40 years
I guess except that one about “old trucks”
Nice name… anyhoo, yes, this is another instance of problems associated with CoVId-19(20/21/&c.) being “chickens coming home to roost.”
__Those complaints about _ports_ have been the same fo-rever. The Mob owned the docks in NYC. There’s a strict “lettuce” inspection in Halifax. In postwar Hải Phòng, only Japanese merchant ships could trade effectively, since they knew just how much even “Comrade” harbormasters require capital. As of 2019, the Sài Gòn river was studded with hundreds of unlicensed longshoring operations serving ships that wouldn’t — or couldn’t — deal with the licensed ports.
US system is decaying faster than any developing countries.
🤡🤡🤡!
😅😂🤣😎
A step in right direction ♥️✌️.
Wise intentions result in a diligent one,
and every impetuous violent comes to a shortage.
It’s really a good time to stop relying on CCP products
Its ok. US consumers pay for the Biden’s corrupt and ineffective governance and mismanagement.
Do not support China support your own country
take all three jabs.
Lazyness and retarded governments Taaaahhh dahhh
Don’t buy made in China as China is fully responsible for the virus.
If you had to go into lock down, that was because of China.
Stop funding the government that tried to cover up its outbreak 😉
The real cause of inflation, unless this can be fix prices will continue to increase
The bottlenecks are expected to be resolved H2 of ’22.
@krnpowr correct.
I don’t know why people are freaking out over this, it’s like traffic on a highway, it’s slow for a bit and then it unclogs and you speed up again
We need to stop buying so much Chinese stuff anyway. They are just using the money to prepare for world domination 💥
Export of viruses are not affected.
It’s time to Boycott “made in China”.
Stop exporting medical products from medicine to PPE now! Right now!!!
I’m so grateful and blessed cos all my bills had been cleared and I can live happy now .. Thanks you Intellect w e b s
Zealots of zero tolerance fu** things up, again
BLACK FRIDAY will fix all of this …
US has a shortage on truck drivers around 80,000 ppl. And the port of Los Angela’s almost has no workers working..This is the main reason
Boycott China’s Products to save humanity
Sorry Bobby, Santa couldn’t make it this year. He’s on his death sled with Megatron, a variant of Kung-Flu.
US consumers should now understand the cost of US – China trade war.
