There is a major movement in the US to bring the manufacture of both basic and critical items back 'on-shore'. The difficulties in obtaining basics like personal protective equipment and medicines because they'd been outsourced to China have been a big wake-up call.
Short term, expect a major decline in US imports from China when the economy reopens. The question is what happens longer term - the US often has a notoriously short memory.
