The Spring Festival in 2020, the year of rat is quite unusual because of the disease caused by the novel coronavirus (新型冠状病毒) which has already spread in many provinces especially in Hubei province. People feel worried because many people caught the pneumonia(肺炎).

The government announced that 2,744 confirmed(确认的) cases of pneumonia caused by the virus, including 461 in serious conditions, had been reported in the country by the end of Sunday，Jan 26th，2020. During the past 24 hours, 769 new confirmed cases, 3,806 new suspected(疑似的) cases and 24 deaths were reported. By Sunday, the pneumonia had resulted in a total of 80 deaths, while 51 people had recovered and 5,794 remained as suspected patients.

The whole country is taking action to prevent the spreading of the disease. People stay at home instead of going to public places or visiting their relatives. The streets in most cities are almost empty. People wear masks when they go out. Many provinces sent medical teams to Wuhan to help control the situation. The People’s Liberation Army also sent medical team and soldiers to help. Wuhan city where the disease started is also doing its best to fight the disease. It is building two special hospitals to take care of the patients. Many companies and people donated money, masks or other equipment to Wuhan and other cities in Hubei.

Although it is hard to stop the disease, people showed great courage and love in this event. Those medical teams went to the place that other people are running out of. The help from the whole country lit the light of hope. We believe that one day the disease will be beaten because of the courage and love of those heroes and the hope in people’s heart.
