WUHAN, Jan. 25-- There were far fewer cars on the streets and bustling crowds were not seen in the shopping malls in the central Chinese city of Wuhan on Jan. 24 -- the Eve of the Chinese Lunar New Year. The scene was quite different from the occasion in the previous years because of the novel coronavirus that has claimed over 40 lives and infected over a thousand nationwide. With a population of over 10 million, Wuhan, the capital city of Hubei Province, is the center of the epidemic. Yang Yingchen, a volunteer of the Red Cross Society of China's Wuhan branch, had a busy day answering calls. |
