This is a documentary of Wuhan in quarantine in February. The whole city was empty, no one was allowed to be on the street except volunteers who deliver food to each household, healthcare workers, volunteers from other cities of the nation, and reporters. The city has over 10 million population and everyone followed the stay-at-home order together to fight the covid-19.
