REPORT
Tuesday, at 6 p.m. in France, it was midnight in the city of Wuhan, epicenter of the Covid-19 epidemic from China. For the 11 million inhabitants of the Chinese city, it was time for deconfinement. A release for these residents barricaded at home for 78 days. Wuhan had been cut off from the world since January 23. For the past week, it had been possible to enter the city again, but prohibited from leaving it. It is now allowed provided that you show your board leg.

Mandatory supporting documents
To do this, residents must have a QR code, an electronic code. This digital passport is used to prove that they are not sick and that they have not been in contact with a person infected with the coronavirus. They are also obliged to present a health certificate and a work certificate to justify their exit.

The deconfinement is therefore very gradual, all the more so since these people will be placed in quarantine again if they want to go to Beijing, the Chinese capital which is very tight for travelers from outside. The deconfinement in China is thus planned city by city, province by province, limiting as much as possible the massive displacements of population.
