  Early on the 11th, Peter, a foreign teacher from Hubei University of Technology in Cameroon, as usual, began to disinfect and kill two international student living parks and seven dormitory buildings. He was carrying a spray barrel and sprayed back and forth in the corridor without leaving a corner.

  "At present, the epidemic situation has been fundamentally reversed, and everything is gradually returning to normal, but I still dare not relax for a moment and continue to be vigilant and do a good job in prevention and control." He said.

  Since the outbreak of the epidemic, Peter has been helping the school fight the epidemic. In addition to taking charge of the killing of 7 international student apartments, he also helped students buy electricity, take delivery of couriers, and carried out night patrols with colleagues to help deal with emergencies. At the same time, provide advice and counseling for international students to help them maintain a peaceful attitude.

  His day's work generally begins at 8 am and ends at 10 pm. The most tired thing is the dormitory killing. I have to carry a 25 kg spray barrel every day and walk upstairs and downstairs for 3 hours. "I like a hurried life. Feeling tired means a lot of gains this day."

  Peter, who loves Chinese culture, came to China in October 2016. He graduated from Hubei University of Technology in June 2019 and stayed on as a teacher. In Wuhan, he harvested a group of co-workers who got along well and liked Chinese food. Hot dried noodles, fried rice and crayfish were his favorites.

  At the beginning of the outbreak, he had the opportunity to leave, but chose to stay. Asked about the reason, he said it was because of love and responsibility, "The school has given me and some students who have experienced real difficulties great help. When the school needs my help most, I can't leave it."

  He took the initiative to apply to the school to join the anti-epidemic team. My father was worried about him and called him several times to ask about the situation, hoping he would go home. He relieved his father to relax and believed that everything would be better soon.

  Peter introduced that the school provided him with work clothes and gloves, glasses, boots, masks, alcohol. In addition, the school also issued brochures to popularize virus prevention knowledge, issued masks for students studying abroad, and provided free water, bread, potatoes, beef, vegetables, and snacks from time to time. These measures reassured him.

  Looking back on the anti-epidemic experience, what impressed Peter most was the team's dedication and dedication. During the worst period of the epidemic, other colleagues could not return to work because of the "closure of the city." The International College had only three teachers including him. The 3 people take the school as their home and work together to deal with all the affairs of international students, ensuring the safety of students.

  Many international students took the initiative to volunteer and assist him in his work. He was moved by Song Yi and Antu from Bangladesh. The two gave up returning to China and took the initiative to stay behind to assist teachers in purchasing supplies and participate in night patrols on campus.

  "China's anti-epidemic has set an example for the world. The Chinese government has taken decisive measures to effectively respond to and control the epidemic." Peter said that the Chinese people, especially the people of Wuhan, have made tremendous sacrifices. The epidemic has allowed him to see China's unity, Strength and responsibility.

  He shared his anti-epidemic experience with his family and friends in Cameroon, and warned them to wear masks, wash hands frequently, disinfect frequently, and develop good hygiene habits. He suggested that they maintain a certain social distance with others, and do not have to go out or cross the door if necessary. So far, his family and friends are very healthy, which makes him very happy.

  "Now (Wuhan) has entered the stage of normalized prevention and control, and international students are still in closed management." Peter said, "Me and my team members have continued to fight, but the mood is more comfortable and the confidence is stronger." Finish)
