In the video, a long line of people can be seen either crouching or kneeling in the street. At the start, it appears to show two individuals in full COVID protective clothing scanning people’s phones while they kneel.

The person recording the video then steps into the road and shows a line of people extending down the street with all of them either kneeling or crouching down.
