Volunteer "Recruitment"
On February 18, Baotou City, Inner Mongolia Autonomous Region added 3 local confirmed cases.
On February 20, the Kundulun District and Qingshan District of Baotou City carried out nucleic acid testing on personnel in key areas.

On February 21, Chang Zhuoer suddenly developed symptoms of fever and cough, with a high fever of 39.7°C.
She took the initiative to isolate herself from her family and reported to the community that she wanted to do nucleic acid recollection.
On the same day, after the relevant departments collected nasopharyngeal swabs for Chang Zhuoer six times, she was diagnosed.
Chang Zhuoer said that at the time, she was dazed and didn't know how she was infected.
"I thought I got it while I was volunteering until I got a call."
Among Chang Zhuoer's relatives, 9 were diagnosed successively.
"One of my older brothers and Baotou's confirmed cases belonged to time and space, so our family was recruited."

Chang Zhuoer felt sorry for putting everyone around him at risk.
"I never wanted to hide it. I explained the situation in the owner group and apologized to everyone." Chang Zhuoer said that she was not afraid of other people's strange eyes, and did not consider whether it would cause trouble to herself in the future. The first and foremost is to avoid the spread of the virus.
After being admitted to the hospital, the medical staff will perform basic checks on Chang Zhuoer 4 times a day, including body temperature, blood pressure, blood oxygen, etc.
She said: "Every day at 9 o'clock, several experts will check on me through video or enter the ward, such as checking the tongue coating, asking if there are new symptoms of discomfort, whether the original symptoms are relieved, etc."
loss of smell and taste
For Chang Zhuoer, the symptoms of contracting new coronary pneumonia are similar to those of a severe cold. The only difference is that her sense of smell and taste are gone.
"Among the family, my symptoms are relatively severe, in addition to high fever, cough, and a little insomnia."
Three meals a day in designated hospitals will be delivered to the ward on time, one meat and two vegetarians, as well as staple food and soup.
There are also fruits after meals, and the daily meals are nutritious and healthy.

Chang Zhuoer said that in the past, he always felt that medical care was great, but he rarely felt it on weekdays.
This time in the isolation ward, she really saw their difficulties. "Wearing layers of protective clothing, the mask is full of water vapor, and the sweat on the hands can be seen through the protective gloves." Chang Zhuoer said.
"Medical staff work 4 shifts a day and come and go in a hurry, but they always chat with me when measuring blood pressure and blood oxygen." Chang Zhuoer said that it was these short chats that made her feel very relaxed.
"They were very gentle and patient. They told me that the hospital had very professional equipment and doctors, so that I could relax and actively cooperate with the treatment."
With the passage of time, Chang Zhuoer's mentality quickly adjusted. She obeyed the doctor's orders, actively cooperated with the treatment, maintained an optimistic attitude, and even cleaned the isolation ward and made short videos when she had nothing to do.
"Few people share their treatment process through video. I want to tell everyone to treat the epidemic scientifically and rationally in this way." Chang Zhuoer said.
warmth will pass
After the video was released, Chang Zhuoer was scolded by some netizens. At first, she was very angry and felt a little wronged. Later, she figured it out and understood everyone's emotions very well.
"As a new youth, at the moment of the epidemic, we must focus on the overall situation, and there is no self in front of the country. Our country is a pluralistic country, which is very inclusive and allows all kinds of voices. I will not hide it from everyone, and I will also I hope everyone can give me encouragement and treat each other frankly." Chang Zhuoer said.
In fact, Chang Zhuoer "became bound" with the new crown pneumonia in 2020.
At that time, when he saw that someone lost his life due to new coronary pneumonia, Chang Zhuoer decisively declared for human organ donation.
"My eyesight is very good, and I thought that if I was gone one day, I could leave something to the world." Chang Zhuoer said.

Chang Zhuoer is also the convener of the Blue Envelope Left-behind Children Care Center. He has sponsored a junior high school student in Hunan, and the two sides have maintained correspondence.
"Whether it is spiritual or material, if you can, you can help as much as you can," said Chang Zhuoer.
With the advancement of treatment, Chang Zhuoer's current symptoms are improving. She will laugh at herself as "the son of heaven", and will also burst into tears for the gradually restored sense of taste and smell.
She said: "For me, this hospitalization means a kind of growth. I didn't know if I could cope with setbacks before, but through this encounter, I feel that I will be able to solve anything I encounter in the future."
"The diagnosis did bring me fear, but fortunately, during this time, I was not alone. With the care of medical staff and the encouragement of netizens, I could feel the company of my family at all times." Chang Zhuoer It is said that in this special period, warmth will be passed on.
