Are imports from China to Canada delayed?

I have been waiting for many packages from China to arrive but they are all late. I am wondering if anyone knows what is going on. Is it because of the virus? Does anyone know?

Some Chinese shipments are stopped by China themselves.  I had something ship late last month and the tracking showed that the Chinese government shipped it back to the city it came from because it was marked as hazardous.  There was nothing hazardous about it, so they reshipped it again and it got through this time.  Canada Post hasn't updated the old tracking number and is still waiting so it would look like it's lost using Canada Post tracking, which is useless

Did it contain lithium batteries? Those do have restrictions on shipping.

And the restrictions are not always applied.

No, it was a solar powered water fountain.  It got through this time
