I've spoken with a couple of friends who have (unfortunately) family stranded in Wuhan. Both of them told me that their family is fine. It's Chinese New Year so no one is working anyway, all public transport has been shut down, but I've heard conflicting reports of whether you can drive or not. One of them told me all roads are on lockdown and there are shuttles provided for local neighbourhoods, and another of them told me it's all fine. Streets are empty but prices are stable - it's the medical resources that are heavily in need of support but living means like groceries are seemingly OK. That's all I know and it sounds more comforting than the conflicting reports all over the place. I guess it's as good as it gets for a locked-down city with an ongoing viral outbreak...

Hope everyone is safe and healthy and this is all over quickly.
