The Wuhan wet market where Covid-19 was initially detected stands empty even as the city around it has come back to life.

"I'd send the kids to school, have breakfast and then walk over to the market. It was very convenient," he said.

It's become a symbol of the fierce political and scientific battle raging around the origin of the virus with Beijing continuing to spar with the United States and other countries, accusing them of bias. "It certainly couldn't have been Wuhan... surely another person brought it in. Or surely it came from some other product brought from outside. There were just certain conditions for it to appear here," said a wet market vendor in the city's centre who gave his name as Chen.

Access to the area remains heavily restricted. People who visited before the lockdown remember a bustling building with hundreds of stalls divided into sections for red meat, seafood and vegetables. This week, a guard at the entrance to the eyeware market took temperatures and warned journalists not to take videos or photos from inside the building.
