Wuhan Resumes Train Service Following Lockdown

VOA News

   Wuhan, China, where the coronavirus epidemic emerged in December,
   resumed train services Saturday after months of lockdown.

   Authorities reduced the city's virus risk evaluation from high to
   medium.

   Commuters riding on six metro lines in the Hubei provincial capital,
   with a population of 11 million people, were required to have their
   body temperatures checked before entering metro stations. They were
   also required to sit in between empty seats, Chinese state television
   reported.

   As of Saturday, China confirmed a total of 45 new cases of the
   coronavirus disease, 44 of whom were people coming from overseas, the
   National Health Commission said Sunday.
