Chennai's Koyambedu Market Reopens After 5 Months
In Chennai, traders heaved a sigh of relief with wholesale vegetable shops reopening at the Koyambedu market. Around 200 shops reopened with a simple ceremony after several months of closure due to the COVID-19 pandemic. Koyambedu had become a cluster from where the coronavirus infection spread because of crowding and the failure to comply with social distancing norms by those at the market and those who shopped there. By mid-May, the count of cases from the cluster was about 3,000.
