In China s Wuhan, the epicentre of the Covid-19 pandemic, the city s residents are returning to normal life even as they continue to grapple with memories of the early outbreak, which struck fear in the city.
It has been almost seven months since the city recorded a locally transmitted case of the disease as a result of a strict city-wide lockdown and mass testing of almost all the city s 11 million residents after the outbreak.
Today, restaurants, shopping streets and bars are crowded, but locals are still experiencing the lasting impact of the lockdown on mental health and work.
Reuters asked people throughout Wuhan to share images and videos they took during their outbreak, as well as their hopes for 2021, as the city approaches the one-year anniversary of the outbreak. City health officials released the first public notice of the then-unknown virus on December 31, 2019.
