So haven't heard of any production delays in Leipzig, yet. Which means production is still normal. There was a COVID-19 case at BMW corporate in Munich a few weeks ago, but that was it.

The other concern is the ports. There has been no port impacts in the US and contrary to popular belief, there will be no trade implications with the recent US travel ban. Not to get too off topic, but a reason why there has been no port disruptions so far is because of insufficient testing and the inability to actually know if Ports workers are infected.

Regardless, this situation is highly fluid, so things may change in a week.
