According to the latest information currently circulating in Wuhan City, students in dark blue dresses sat in crowded rows, without social distancing or face masks, under a sign that read: "Welcoming 2020 graduates back home. Wishing you a bright future. "

China is holding a massive graduation ceremony for more than 11,000 students, a year after the city became the starting point for the global COVID-19 pandemic that has swept the world.

According to local news outlet Hubei News, the ceremony was held at a stadium inside the university campus and was attended by more than 11,000 students. The outlet wrote that more than 3,000 parents were given seats to watch their children graduate, bringing the total number of people in the stadium to over 14,000.

More than 2,200 people at Sunday's ceremony (13/6/2021) were graduates who were unable to attend last year's graduation due to strict virus restrictions.

A red banner containing a verse from an ancient Chinese poem: "The boundless ocean for jumping fish" was displayed welcoming the students, Insider reported.

Class of 2020 students made posts on Weibo, Twitter in China, to celebrate the event. One student wrote: "I went back to school, fulfilling the regret of not being able to graduate last year."

Another student wrote: "Thanks to my school for giving us, the class of 2020, a graduation ceremony."

This mass graduation took place in a place that had become the epicenter of the Covid-19 pandemic at the end of 2019. The virus was first detected in the capital city of Hubei Province, which forced 11 million people into lockdown mode for 76 days. Restrictions were not relaxed until April 2020, when the city began to reopen after 76 days of closure, although schools remained closed longer.

The city held a limited graduation ceremony last year, with Wuhan University hosting a mostly online event in June 2020, with students and teachers in attendance all wearing masks.

Chinese authorities say COVID is more or less under control in the country.

The latest restrictions in China come after two cases were reported on June 14 in the southern province of Guangdong, prompting strict travel restrictions, mass testing and a vaccination push. In April, a small-scale COVID outbreak in southwest Yunnan Province was also met with aggressive mass testing measures and an immediate city-wide lockdown of 72 hours.

Currently China has managed to keep locally transmitted community cases to a minimum by placing all travelers into the country under strict "14+7" day quarantine procedures, in which a person must spend 14 days in a facility and another week to recover. quarantine yourself at home.

So hopefully useful information.

Thank you for reading. Stay safe and Stay Healthy. Health is Wealth.
