Zenyatta's Orb of Discord and Reinhardt's shield

Zenyatta's Orb of Discord and Reinhardt's shield - Happy Birthday Greeting Card on Yellow Table

Does placing an Orb of Discord on Reinhardt increase the amount of damage his shield takes?

Bonus question: I have noticed that when playing Zenyatta, I can not throw an Orb of Discord through a Reinhardt shield. Are there any mechanics that help with getting on Orb onto a shielded Reinhardt / a character hiding behind a Reinhardt shield?
