On the 7th, People's Daily and China Women's Network jointly released the "frontline medical staff anti-epidemic heroes figures". Guo Qin, a nurse from the Emergency Center of Zhongnan Hospital of Wuhan University, was selected.
37-year-old Guo Qin is a member of the Communist Party of China. She has been working in the emergency center for 15 years and has been repeatedly rated as an excellent nurse and an excellent nursing teacher. After the outbreak, Guo Qin took care of critically ill patients in the emergency ward. She worked consciously for more than 10 hours a day, sometimes 24 hours in a row, and helped more than a hundred patients with COVID19 with their treatment, but she was unfortunately infected with the virus. After treatment, her condition quickly improved. In order to make room for other patients, she took the initiative to go home for isolation and treatment. Immediately after the quarantine observation period, she actively asked to return to her post, "I am not a hero, but I should never be a deserter." In addition to using professional skills to treat patients, she also used her experience to provide psychological counseling to patients and relieve their stress.
It is reported that there were 20 heroic people in the "frontline medical staff's anti-epidemic heroes figures" released this time. There are 6 frontline female medical staff in Hubei, 7 female medical staff from the aid teams sent to Hubei, 5 military medical staff from the aid teams in Hubei, and 2 local medical staff in the frontline. The 20 female medical staff on the list are representatives of outstanding women in the new era and a model for the majority of female medical workers. It is reported that there are currently more than 40,000 medical staff across Hubei, of which women are the majority.
