From Hackaday:
Shenzhen just recently got put on a week-long lockdown. Factories, non-essential stores and public places are closed, and people are required to spend time at home… A lot of the usual suspects like PCBWay and JLCPCB are merely reporting increased lead times…
However, at jlcpcb.com, it says at the top:
JLCPCB owns 6 factories for smooth production and supply. Manufacturing and delivery are going well, not affected by the COVID.
It just so happens I’ll be able to report if there are delays. I placed an order on Saturday and some boards are more than halfway through production, others are down around 1/3, and one for some reason is only 8%.

PCBs are done, awaiting carrier pickup. I think that’s about the usual timing for non green boards. But the site now says
JLCPCB owns 6 factories for smooth production and supply. Manufacturing and shipping are going well, but the delivery time may be 1-2 days longer due to the current COVID situation.
