A couple under quarantine in Wuhan describe what it is like to be trapped in their home for more than 3 weeks

Since December, the coronavirus has been spreading worldwide. As of February 15, the global death toll hasBusiness Insider talked to a couple, who prefer to remain unnamed,and have been quarantined in their home for 23 days. They said they live a life of uncertainty — no one knows what to do or how long they'll be forced to stay home.

The only contact with the outside world is via the internet, they told Business Insider. It is also how the couple found out that three of their friends had died from the virus — among them, one of their oldest friends. To pass the time, the couple said they watch a lot of television, but what is broadcast there does not correspond to their reality, they said, noting that the Chinese media convey mainly positive reports and say everything is under control.

If there are people in a building who are infected by the coronavirus, the houses are branded and the doors locked like a prison, they said.
