(Yicai Global) March 31 -- More than 10 shopping malls in downtown Wuhan opened their doors again yesterday but the crowds were relatively small as business activity gradually resumes in the early epicenter of the Covid-19 epidemic.

Customers need to have their body temperatures checked to enter the venues.

Staff by the door was making sure that the visitors were not breaking their quarantines by checking their municipal mini-program codes.

Sales personnel has to undergo temperature checkups every two hours.

People who wished to enter a phone store needed to line up in designated seats.

Customers were trying on jewelry.

Transmission fears may have subsided as one consumer was not too afraid to use makeup testers.
