“China is always well protected by the bravest of them” former (从前的) US secretary of state Henry Kissinger once wrote. Indeed, in the fight against the novel coronavirus, it is medical workers who are risking their lives on the frontlines of the epidemic (流行病).

As of Feb 17, more than 32,000 medical workers from all over China have been to Hubei. They are working under unusual conditions, unimaginable stress (压力).

In Wuhan mobile cabin hospitals, medical workers take turns to treat patients. They usually have to work without stopping for six hours or more, as well as take one hour to put on and take off their protective clothing. To help them know each other, they write their names on their clothing. To save time going to the bathroom, they choose to wear diapers (纸尿裤). The paper reported.

Many doctors and nurses were infected (感染) during the earliest period of the epidemic because of knowing less about the virus, as well as shortage (短缺) of medical supplies (供应). Some of them were treated, got well and went back to work. Some of them unluckily lost their lives.

According to China’s National Health Commission, a total of 1,716 medical workers in China were infected with the new coronavirus as of Feb 11, while six passed away.

With the help of the central government, the working conditions for medical workers in the cities like Wuhan have been improved. They are confident that they will win the battle (战役) against the virus.

These medical workers are just ordinary people. To fight the epidemic, parents leave their children and couples get separated (分离). They are mothers and fathers, wives and husbands, sons and daughters, and also warriors (战士).
