Front LIne Nursing - How the epidemic is perceived in China by nursing staff

Image
As you most probably know, I was in Hospital in Jiangkou just before Christmas for my appendix operation.  I kept in touch with some of the medical staff and was invited back for a photoshoot.  Since then they have kept me informed of what is happening in regards to the virus.  Many nurses from Jiangkou went to 'serve' in Wuhan.  perceived Jiangkou Nurses on their way to 'serve' in Wuhan I include one moving story here of a newly qualified nurse from Jiangkou hospital who went to 'serve' in Wuhan.  This is the diary of Liu Yunyun translated courtesy of Google translate.If the story does not touch your heart, you need to reassess things.

The strange warming table....an electric tea table

The deputy is the guy second from the left.  He loaded the car with water and off we went.  I was qute interested to see what the countrydie was like, and what a rural school was like.  I was expecting a kind of wooden hut with soil floor.  I was very wrong! The school gate  A quick look around the campus As you can probably see, this was no small school.  A huge site with tall three-floored buildings and numerous sports '...
