2020-02-07 |
[New York Post] Haunting drone footage shows the largely empty thoroughfares in the coronavirus epicenter city of Wuhan, a sprawling metropolis of 11 million residents that appears to have been transformed into a ghost town. The video ‐ posted on Twitter by ABC News ‐ captures a variety of eerie scenes, including one bridge with a handful of vehicles, another that is devoid of traffic, a lone car on a six-lane highway and the airport at a standstill. The Chinese government put the country’s fifth-largest city under lockdown on Jan. 23, halting all forms of public transportation three days before banning the use of non-essential vehicles in the downtown area. |
