Residents of China's Wuhan city, ground zero for the coronavirus pandemic, have mixed emotions as containment measures are lifted and the community infection rate slows to a trickle, with some praising the government and others rueing the economic costs.
The strictest curbs on movement and business were in the Hubei provincial capital of Wuhan, where the virus is believed to have emerged from a seafood market last year.
The city of 11 million people accounts for about 60% of China's total infections, which stood at 81,518 as of yesterday. That market is now boarded up, and an adjacent wholesale fruit centre is also closed with fruit rotting outside.
