Chinese workers and health officials wear protective white suits as travellers from Wuhan gather to take buses. The travellers are processed and taken to 14 days of quarantine, after arriving on the first trains to Beijing on April 8, 2020. China lifted its lockdown on Wuhan, the first epicentre of Covid-19 after 76 days, allowing healthy people to leave.
