There are no way we going to be talking about the coronavirus in years to come that the name Wuhan won’t pop out.

Let’s get a little insight about Wuhan and also, let humanity not place the blame on China but rather accept it as it is bound to happen and learn to be prepared for other things to come.

Wuhan is the capital of Hubei Province, People’s Republic of China, The largest city in Hubei and also the most populous city in central China.

The city was once the capital of China for a brief moment in 1927 under the left wing of the Kuomintang (KMT) government led by Wang Jingwei.

Early 2020, Wuhan is mostly recognized as the origin of outbreak of the pandemic of COVID-19. The city has been under lockdown since early January 2020 as a result of the 2019-2020 coronavirus pandemic.

Wuhan is been considered as the political, financial, educational, commercial, and cultural center of Central China. Wuhan natives, speak a variety of southwestern mandarin Chinese also known as the Wuhan dialect which has slight difference between the districts of Wuhan.

The city is the leading educational hub for china with 35 higher educational institutions which include well known institutions like Huazhong University of Science and Technology and Wuhan University. The Wuhan railway hub is considered to be one of the four key railway hubs of the PRC.

The coronavirus will go off in a matter of time, but it shouldn’t be allowed to give the city of Wuhan a bad name. Life threatening virus could arise from anywhere but we should look ahead of it and join hands together to make life more bearable and beautiful to live.

It shouldn’t be called the Wuhan virus or the virus from China but rather we change our focus on how to go back to our daily activities and help make the World a better place. cheers!!
