Post-flood clearing up is underway in a flood-hit wholesale market to prevent an epidemic and restore operation on August 9. Xinfadi Dashiqiao Agricultural Products Wholesale Market is the largest in Zhuozhou. Over 400 soldiers have started clearing thick layers of mud from the market after floods receded, racing to get the important regional food distribution hub back up and running. Given the wide variety of products in the market, including some perishable items, a group of personnel has been deployed to carry out disinfection. According to the local commerce department, the emergency supply guarantee mechanism has been activated, ensuring that both rural and urban areas unaffected by the flood have largely restored normal supplies.
