USPS® Coronavirus Updates: Expected Delivery Changes
I understand some of my mail delivery may be delayed? Why?
Postal Service Priority Mail® products and First-Class® packages may temporarily require more time to be delivered due to limited transportation availability as a result of the Coronavirus (COVID-19) pandemic.
How will this affect delivery of Priority Mail?
Priority Mail's two-day and three-day service commitments will be extended to three days and four days, respectively. Customers will continue to receive improved product tracking and as much as $50 in free insurance.
Will this affect delivery of Priority Mail Express®?
Priority Mail Express service, which guarantees overnight service, and one-day service commitments for Priority Mail will not change.
Will First-Class Mail be delayed too?
First-Class Package Service® two and three day service commitments will be extended to three and four days respectively.
Is mail still being sent to other countries?
Global Express Guaranteed® Services also have been altered. For a full list of international and domestic updates, refer to usps.com.

Why Your Post Office Packages Are Delayed
"It’s not so much what the current Postmaster General is doing as much as what the federal government has not done."
I run a small online business and I use the USPS for all my shipping. I probably mail 100 packages a week, and have been doing so for years.

I don't think most people understand the scope of what has been happening over the last month or so in terms of delays.
