Newsweek丨"Dalian guy" entered the quarantine area again: It was not naive, but naive that beat me!
In February of this year, Jiang Wenqiang strayed into Wuhan when he took the high-speed train to Changsha. After the city was closed in Wuhan, he stayed there as a volunteer. Because he was from Dalian, everyone called him "Dalian." On March 30, Jiang Wenqiang returned to his hometown with the medical team and opened a barbecue restaurant.
Just when Jiang Wenqiang thought that the experience caused by the "wrong ride" was about to end, in July, the new crown pneumonia epidemic occurred again in Dalian, Jiang Wenqiang put on protective clothing again, and started food delivery and cleaning at the isolation hotel in Dalian. Of volunteer work...
Take the initiative to ask Ying as a volunteer
Jiang Wenqiang: I was a volunteer at the Wuhan First Hospital because of a collision . Then I was known by everyone. Now that the new crown pneumonia epidemic broke out in my hometown in Dalian, I took the initiative to ask Ying to be a volunteer in the isolation area. I saw a photo in the circle of friends. The medical staff lay in a row, lying on the ground, which touched me very much. First of all, they are tired. Second, because the weather is very hot, the ground may be cooler. I think at the time, I thought I could do something.
Fear of infection
In Wuhan, he was often afraid of infection; in Dalian, the familiar sense of fear came again.
Jiang Wenqiang: Before entering the quarantine area, I was still full of confidence. However, I am in the quarantine area now, the same as before. Whenever I squat down, air will come out of the gap between the mask and the protective clothing. When I stand up, air will be sucked in. I am still particularly worried about this.
Work intensity beyond imagination
Food delivery, garbage collection, and disinfection were carried out continuously. The physical strength of the three tasks is not much allocated, but the actual intensity is beyond imagination.
Jiang Wenqiang: After I deliver the meal to the door of the room, I need to wait for them to finish the meal and clean up their household garbage together. It takes about forty minutes to an hour during this period, during which you have to wear protective clothing and find a place to sit and rest. If you take it off and come in to collect garbage, you will waste a set of protective clothing. After cleaning up, put the disinfectant machine on your back and start disinfection. Because the isolation hotel is central air-conditioning, it can’t be turned on, so the whole building is very hot. If you sweat too much, the mask will get wet. When you breathe and inhale, the mask will stick to your mouth and nose. It's a little difficult. When taking off the protective clothing, the sweat will flow down the arm, all flowing into the gloves. As soon as I took off my gloves, the water "crashed" as if it was poured out, and it was all spilled on the ground, really like pouring water.
Wearing isolation clothing for a long time causes tinea versicolor
Since the hotel is fully closed and managed, reporters can only interview from a distance.
Reporter: How about, do you have a job today?
Jiang Wenqiang: Because the weather in Dalian is relatively hot today, I have been wearing protective clothing and have some rashes on my body these days. I will take a rest today. I suddenly felt a little itchy before. At first I started to get a few red spots. I thought it was a hot rash, but after getting up this morning (July 30), I found that the armpits and the back waist were all red. Spots, after inspection, it was found to be tinea versicolor.
Bai Yansong: The Dalian guy’s experience is like a very good movie. When you think that the plot is all over, you don’t expect another easter egg. There is a new plot. I only hope that the plot is just a short overtime, soon. To be able to end, let Dalian be normal, and let Dalian guys return to normal life.
