Japan’s Honda Motor Company has reopened its factory in the Chinese city of Wuhan, more than two months after it was closed to help stop the spread of the coronavirus. But the reopening came with new virus protection measures, including temperature checks for workers and a rule that employees keep more than one meter apart. The factory is co-owned by Honda and China’s Dongfeng Motor Group. It was shut in late January when officials ordered a lockdown in Wuhan over the coronavirus epidemic.
