Date:2022-5-31 9:47:59 Views:Many women volunteers and their family members have proactively pitched in epidemic prevention and control work on the front line in a drive to further consolidate hard-earned achievements in COVID-19 response and bring the outbreak under control as early as possible.
Among them are many volunteer families, all people of whom have joined the front line battle against the outbreak and taken concrete action to push forward the volunteer spirit of mutual assistance, friendship, dedication and progress.
Lyu Yanjie and her husband Xu Shiwei, both of whom are teachers in Fangshan District, have stepped up to aid in the fight against the latest outbreak in Shilou township, where they have lived for years, all while completing their daily online teaching by working from home. Lyu and Xu have to visit everyone living within their area, register and check their information, and ensure that they take part in mass nucleic acid testing as required. They are often soaked to the skin when working in protective suits for a whole day. As a class monitor in her college, their daughter Xu Hekun is responsible for following the health condition of her classmates and handling other administrative affairs in the class via the internet. She still manages to work as a volunteer in a nearby nucleic acid testing site and aid grassroots workers in the establishment of an online database for storing the information of people living in a large residential community.

He Jungui is a civil servant, and his wife, Li Xiaoling, is deputy director of a residential community in Fengtai District. He Jungui volunteered to take part in epidemic prevention and control work at the grassroots level when the capital city was hit by the latest COVID-19 resurgence in late April. Since then, he has worked together with other frontline workers in the organization of mass nucleic acid testing. Meanwhile, Li has been preoccupied with the organization of local residents to take mass nucleic acid tests and the investigation of any potential clues of viral transmission from a large group of data around the clock. He Yunjie, their son, is a college student. He has signed up for community-level epidemic prevention and control work. He has earned high acclaim from for his outstanding performance in the distribution of anti-epidemic supplies, the organization of mass nucleic acid testing and the collection of information of residents.
Wang Lili, who works at the Hepingli sub-district office in the district of Dongcheng, volunteered to send hot drinks and lunch to frontline health workers and community-level employees when they came to her home for mass nucleic acid testing at the beginning of the latest outbreak. Wang and her husband, Zhao Xiaohu, have taken part in volunteer activities, which included the purchase and delivery of medicine for people living in restrictive control areas and the maintenance of public order at nearby nucleic acid testing sites. They have stayed fast at their positions on the front line in the hot weather. Zhao Changle, their son, has proactively followed suit in becoming a volunteer on the front line.
