This is an interesting article, but it doesn't answer why we have this shortage. Presumably without COVID, companies projected what demand would be for years out and could plan manufacturing capacities.

What about COVID caused the shortage? Is it shipping speeds? Change in demand? Less efficiency down the supply chain due to health requirements? Trade changes?
