Apple might see an impact of China’s lockdown in several regions due to the rising COVID-19 cases. Foxconn’s factory, which is the world’s largest iPhone assembly plant, is in the Zhengzhou Airport Economy Zone.
China is witnessing a new rise in the number of COVID-19 cases. The country is reporting around 30,000 daily COVID-19 cases. Due to the all-time high number of cases, the government has announced a lockdown in several regions. The sudden lockdown has resulted in the disruption of social and economic activities. No surprise, the lockdown has also caused manufacturers to shut their factories. A new report from Bloomberg claims that the lockdown is also affecting the production of Apple’s iPhone models in China. The report states that the government has announced the Zhengzhou Airport Economy Zone as a quarantine zone. This means that no person can leave their home until further notice.
