Volunteers have been spraying Wuhan with disinfectant to help the Chinese city where the coronavirus first took hold get back to work as the number of new cases in China drops

The former soldier leads a team of 60 volunteers that has been focused on disinfecting places such as hospitals and schools. It has started to relax those restrictions in recent weeks and will allow people to start leaving the city on April 8, more than two months after the curbs were put in place in late January.
