“China is always well protected by the bravest of them,” former 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(传染病).

As of Feb. 17, more than 32,000 medical workers from all over China have been sent to Hubei, the center of the viral (病毒的)outbreak. They are working under unusual conditions, unimaginable stress and a large number of working.

“In Wuhan mobile cabin hospitals, medical workers take turns to treat patients. They usually have to work for six hours in a row, as well as take one hour to put on and take off their protective clothing. To help them recognize each other, they write their names on their clothing. To save time going to the bathroom, they choose to wear _______,” the Paper reported.

Many doctors and nurses were infected(感染)during the earliest period of the outbreak because of a lack of knowledge about the virus, as well as a shortage of medicine. 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 support of the central government, the working conditions for medical staff in Wuhan have been improved. They are confident that they will beat against the virus.

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