21、   It is said that “China is always well protected by the bravest(最勇敢的) of them.” Indeed, in the fight against the novel corona virus(新冠状病毒), it is medical workers who are risking their lives on the frontlines.

By Feb 17, more than 32,000 medical workers from all over China went to Hubei. They are working under unusual conditions, unimaginable stress and intensive(密集的) schedules.

In Wuhan mobile cabin(方舱) hospitals, doctors and nurses work for long hours, usually six hours in a row(连续). Many of them have deep marks on their faces from wearing tight masks and goggles(护目镜). To help them recognize(认出) each other, they write their names on their clothing. They also choose to wear diapers(尿不湿), as it takes nearly an hour to take their protective uniforms on and off. When they are racing time to save lives, every second matters. To cheer each other up, medical workers wrote good words on their uniforms, such as “Stay strong” and “Hope”.

Many doctors and nurses got the disease during the earliest period of the outbreak because of a lack of knowledge about the disease, as well as a shortage of medical supplies(供应).
