  Documentary of Wuhan

  This is a documentary of Wuhan when the COVID-19 first explored in February on Chinese TikTok. The city was under strict quarantine, no one can leave the house except healthcare workers and volunteers. This short documentary video recorded people trying to call the hotline in the City Hall, saying that their family members had covid and they need help. It breaks me that they sounded so desperate and these were all real stories.
