After 60 days and nights, 650,000 primary and secondary school students returned to school one after another.

  [Explanation] At the opening ceremony of the Huli No. 2 Experimental Primary School in Xiamen, sixth grader Huang Weihao "spit out" his father Huang Shuangjian in front of more than a thousand teachers and students through a live broadcast.

  I want to spend more time with him during this summer vacation and make up for some of the past mistakes. Then unfortunately, this epidemic has struck, and there is no way to continue to accompany him.

But there is no way. The epidemic is an order. As a medical worker, when the epidemic comes, we must mobilize immediately and devote ourselves to the work of nucleic acid collection.

  [Commentary] After sharing his anti-epidemic experience, Huang Shuangjian, who felt guilty, opened his arms and hugged his son who was much taller.

Huang Weihao, who is not good at speaking, every time he goes to the school for nucleic acid testing, after seeing it with his own eyes, Huang Weihao has less complaints and more understanding of his father Huang Shuangjian.

  I often see them wearing protective suits, sitting there sweating profusely, and then I would imagine what Dad would look like in those clothes.

  [Explanation] Since the beginning of August, Xiamen has faced the challenge of the new variant strain of BA.2.76 and the complex situation of multiple infection sources and multiple transmission chains. Thousands of medical staff, volunteers and staff have raced against time. Virus battle.

Huang Weihao's father was one of them, and his teachers also went into battle.

  [Explanation] Lin Jianlong, director of the General Affairs Office of Huli No. 2 Experimental Primary School, accidentally slapped his foot before the epidemic, but he still reluctantly rushed to the school to receive materials such as tents, enclosures and epidemic prevention materials, and arranged them in strict accordance with epidemic prevention requirements from morning to night site.

  Some sites can be arranged clearly, which can save a lot of trouble for our students, teachers, and medical staff. When they come to the site, they can reduce the trouble of waiting in line.

So in our profession as a teacher, these efforts are all worthwhile and deserved.

  [Explanation] In this round of epidemic in August, Xiamen's education system participated in more than 40,000 volunteers for epidemic prevention and control, and ran out of the "acceleration" of the epidemic.

After learning about the epidemic prevention and control situation during the summer vacation, Sun Hong, the principal of Xiamen Huli No. 2 Experimental Primary School, led the entire school staff to work intensively, maintaining order and inputting information. Teachers became the indispensable right-hand man of medical staff.

  Difficulties are bound to exist, because during the holiday, our teachers still have training, and we also have our own business training. Besides, many teachers say that they can only accompany their families and children during this holiday, and they also want to go out and have a look, but There is no way, everyone thinks it is, we are the people's teachers, the word people's teacher, I think it is a very important weight in the hearts of teachers, how to reflect the word "people", that is, the country needs, we have no choice. to support.

  [Explanation] In order to consolidate the hard-won results of prevention and control, Xiamen issued Circular No. 27 to carry out a round of nucleic acid testing for all employees from September 1 to 4.

In Huli No. 2 Experimental Primary School, under the guidance of the teacher, students lined up in two rows for nucleic acid testing.

Listening to the laughter and laughter of the children inadvertently touched Sun Hong's heartstrings. She believed that only the small feet could move forward if the big hands blocked the "epidemic fire".

  It is when you see that it is still a "nucleic acid battlefield", and it immediately turns into a beautiful hot spot for children to enter school. Who will do this process? All teachers and community volunteers, and Supported by our medical staff.

In fact, everyone is persevering in the ordinary, and harvesting in the forward.
