WUHAN (China Daily/ANN): It has been more than 10 days since Wuhan, the epicentre of the deadly novel coronavirus outbreak, entered an unprecedented lockdown. For most residents trapped in their homes, life has not been easy, but they are trying their best not to let the epidemic affect them too much.

The city of 11 million people in Hubei province has been on lockdown since Jan 23. Flights, trains and buses leaving and entering Wuhan have been cancelled, highways in and out of the city blocked and public transportation suspended. The city later even banned some private vehicles to limit as much movement as possible.
