In other coronavirus-related news, the Chinese government released footage of fleets of trucks patrolling the streets of Wuhan spraying chemicals in the air to as part of “disinfection” efforts:
Chinese government-owned newspaper The People’s Daily released video of the “disinfection” of the city of Wuhan featuring fire trucks and platoons of men in hazmat gear roaming the streets and spraying chemicals in the air.
The People’s Daily, which is the official newspaper of the Central Committee of the Communist Party of China, posted the video to Twitter.
“Full-front disinfection work has started in #Wuhan, an effort to contain the spread of #coronavirus,” the tweet caption read.
In the footage, fleets of fire trucks can be seen rolling down the streets of Wuhan spraying some type of chemicals, presumably disinfectant, into the air.
The flashing emergency lights and clouds of mist create an interesting scene on what appear to be otherwise deserted streets.
