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.

School visits

Image
It was friday, I only had one lessoon, but the night before, I was told that we were going on a schol visit to a countryside school.  It sounded good.   I turned up early for school and let my class know that I ouwl not be there.  They seemd to understand.  I then went around the school in teh morning and chatted to teh students as I usually do.  At half past eight (ish) I got my text and went out and met the deputy head.  He led us over to his car.  I took the obligatory photograph!

The 'live meat' market The 'live meat' market has to be seen to be believed.   At the far end are the water based animals.  Next is the birds.  Last is the meat.  At the far end the water based animals are alive, as are the birds.  At the meat end, the animals are dead or being killed and cooked.  The cooking consists of using a blue torch to char the meat.  Today there were pigs heads and trotters, various birds and one guy blue torching the remaining flesh from what I guess was a cow pelt. Another guy was charring a pigs head with a blowtorch.  Nobody seemed to mind me watching or filming, so I took a few videos. ...
