On January 28, the fourth day of the new year, Jiang Tao wrote in his WeChat circle of friends: "This birthday is probably the most memorable of my life." In the photos uploaded, there is no cake, no family, only he, Wearing a mask and goggles, wearing protective clothing, hands are better than "yeah" in the locker room.

That day was Jiang Tao ’s 42nd birthday, and it was the seventh day that he entered the quarantine ward. As the director of the Department of Infectious Diseases, People's Hospital of Tengchong City, Yunnan Province, he has been on the "battlefield" since January 22, and has been standing there for more than a month.

In fact, with the peculiar acuity of medical workers, Jiang Tao had already taken the initiative to enter a "state of combat readiness" earlier. "Tengchong, as a border town and a hometown of overseas Chinese, is also a famous tourist city. It has a large number of people and opened direct flights to Wuhan. After the outbreak, I think there may be suspected cases here."

On January 18th, Jiang Tao began training for new coronary pneumonia in the hospital, and recommended that the hospital immediately reserve materials and improve the auxiliary equipment in the infectious disease isolation ward. He is going to fight a prepared battle.

On January 24, New Year's Eve, Jiang Tao, who was on duty at the hospital, received news from the pre-screening triages: two Wuhan tourists complained that they had fever. He was immediately admitted, and after examination, the two patients met the clinical symptoms of new coronary pneumonia and came from Wuhan. He immediately admitted two patients as suspected.

After that, Jiang Tao never left the hospital. In order to deal with the emergency in time, he simply lived in the duty room at the door of the isolation ward.

Every day, from 9 am in the morning to 11:30 in the evening, Jiang Tao spent most of his time in the isolation ward. While treating patients with all his heart, Jiang Tao also spent a lot of energy on training and psychological counseling for medical staff. Every medical staff contacted the patient for the first time, Jiang Tao was accompanied throughout the process, from checking whether the protective clothing is standard, to teaching how to take care of the patient, so that the hearts of the "comrades-in-arms" were gradually settled.

With the careful care of Jiang Tao and his team, the good news finally came. On February 14, Tengchong announced that two of the six confirmed cases were cured and discharged. At present, the other patients are in stable condition and are expected to be discharged one after another in the next 10 days. One patient in his 70s choked on a phone call to the hospital leader and said, "Tengchong is a city with a temperature." Another patient said more than 20 words of "Thank you" to Jiang Tao after the symptoms eased.

Jiang Tao did not relax. In the interview, he said the most is how to help the second echelon medical staff to adapt to the work in the quarantine area as quickly as possible, and how to ask university students in the frontline of epidemic resistance in Wuhan, Guangzhou and other places to take measures to deal with the sudden illness of patients. He only skipped a few words, working in the same hospital with his wife, but had not been able to meet for more than a month; he was a 10-year-old daughter and a son who had just turned one, and he could only be replaced by a grandmother who had not recovered from a hand injury and had limited mobility Look after. "As long as one patient is not discharged, we will never retreat," Jiang Tao said.

Changshu donated 20,000 pounds of vegetables to Wuhan

"Mom, let's donate all the food at home!" On the sixth day of the new year, Su Huiping, an overseas Chinese family member in Bixi New District, Changshu City, Jiangsu Province, received a call from her daughter Dong Minjia from Sydney.

Dong Minjia has lived in Australia for many years. On the third day of the new year, she left her hometown to return to Sydney and was isolated at home in accordance with local regulations. How to buy daily necessities? Dong Minjia was troubled. Unexpectedly, the next day when she pushed the door, the door was filled with necessities such as vegetables from friends and neighbors, and she was moved.

"Will the citizens of Wuhan who are isolated at home face the same problem?" Dong Minjia sank.

I learned from Zhang Qing, my mother ’s volunteer friend in Wuhan, that some hospitals, schools, and communities in Wuhan were in short supply of fresh vegetables. Dong Minjia immediately called her mother— "The vegetable base at home is expected to give 4 tons. Is it enough? ? "

"Don't worry, you can take as much as you want! I'll go and find other vegetable farmers' friends." The mother's reply gave Dong Minjia a little peace of mind.

Putting down the phone, Su Huiping immediately acted and began to contact the surrounding vegetable bases. She also approached the Farm Service Center of Bixi New District for help. On the recommendation of the staff of the Farm Service Center, several large vegetable companies with good reputation in the surrounding areas joined the supplier team. Many vegetable bases adjusted their production plans, leaving a share of them for Wuhan, and significantly reduced the selling price, supporting Su Huiping's charity through the "half buy and half free" approach.

At this time, Dong Minjia, who was far away in Australia, had renewed his heart. Mother said on the phone, "Logistics is the biggest problem! We couldn't find a car willing to go to Wuhan for a while."

Towing through multiple channels, with the help of Zhang Qing, Dong Minjia contacted the China National Express Corporation and they were willing to run there.

With the supplier, logistics is solved. "The recipient must be identified in advance so that the vegetables can really be delivered to those in need." Dong Minjia thought.

Under the initiative of Zhang Qing, some volunteers in Wuhan acted separately, contacted the recipients and units, and counted their needs. Changshu, Wuhan, and Sydney coordinated, and a vegetable docking group was quickly established.

In the early morning of February 3, Su Huiping and friends summoned Dongdong to go out to various bases to collect vegetables and load cars, and were busy until the evening. In the end, about 24,600 jins of fresh vegetables are ready to go. The main varieties are chiba, cabbage, spinach and broccoli. That night, the little brother Sun, the driver in charge of logistics, drove straight to Wuhan.

That night, looking at the constantly updated logistics schedule in the WeChat group, Su Huiping and Dong Minjia were too excited to fall asleep. Their hearts have flown to Wuhan.

At 2:51 pm on February 4, a truck full of Changshu vegetables slowly drove into the Wuhan bayonet. After learning the news, Su Huiping took a sigh of relief and hurriedly said "hard" to the friends who had worked hard in the group for several days.

With the help of Wuhan volunteers, these vegetables were sent to 41 units including hospitals, welfare homes, environmental sanitation stations, police stations and communities on the same day.

Dong Minjia was very pleased to see photos of vegetables being collected on the spot from WeChat groups. "These vegetables can be delivered point-to-point to the people who need them most, which is what makes me most happy. I hope to help my friends in Wuhan get through the difficulties."

Our reporter Li Jiabao

"If the community epidemic prevention and control needs human support, I sign up to participate!" On February 1, Fei Min, Secretary of the Communist Party Committee of Xiaoshan Community, Dachang Street, Jiangbei New District, Nanjing, Jiangsu Province, received a "please" WeChat with 1,000 yuan attached Transfer donations.

Sending information is Ma Li, a retired cadre of the community. He was once the deputy director of the Dachang Street People's Congress Working Committee, a member of the provincial and municipal overseas Chinese federations, and is currently a member of the Overseas Chinese Federation of Jiangbei New District.

After the Spring Festival, Ma Li learned that the community was short of staff to prevent and control the epidemic, and some community cadres and volunteers did not even have time to change shifts to eat. She couldn't sit still, and immediately picked up her cell phone to "communicate" with Fei Min, the party secretary of the community.

"I want to contribute to the community and do my part! I didn't think too much." On the phone, Ma Li's voice was bright. It is hard to imagine that she was a patient with cancer for 10 years, who had undergone tumor resection, and had old problems with joint pain. Considering her physical condition, the community declined her request.

Unable to get on the job, Ma Li, who has always been called the "busy sister", couldn't relax. She was thinking about eating problems for frontline staff. The next day, Ma Li got up early to make dough, roll skins, and adjust fillings. She was busy for a long time and distributed steaming buns to community cadres and volunteers on duty.

As the epidemic prevention and control became more stringent, the community issued a convening order among party members and volunteer groups, and Ma Li "combatted" again.

"Director Ma, come on!" At noon on February 9, Ma Li, who was cooking at home, received a call from the community. She put down the spatula and went straight to the community to sign the application.

From February 10, Ma Li's figure appeared on time every day at the gate of Baorun Garden in Xiaoshan Community. She is wearing a red armband and holding a forehead gun, checking in and out of vehicles and pedestrians, and taking temperature for residents.

"Is the body still consuming?" When the reporter asked this question, there was another hearty laughter on the other end of the phone. "The temperature has cooled down a little while ago, and I have a little backache. The weather has been better recently, and I can stand for two hours!
