Under the same sky-the donation of the 89 th alumni of Qingdao No.2 Middle School across the mountains and seas

No one expected that 22 would be opened in such a difficult way. It was supposed to be a day of family reunion, but it became a moment when the whole country and Qi Xin worked together to fight the epidemic. Wuhan has become the center of people's attention throughout the country.

Our 89th Huang Yang classmate is a doctor fighting in Wuhan. In the early stage of anti-epidemic, when faced with a serious shortage of protective materials, she sent out a weak cry for help in the group, which made the students nervous. As a result, overseas and domestic, every student began to look for protective materials as much as he could. Unexpectedly, things are so serious. To have a supply of goods and meet the requirements of medical specifications, price is no longer a factor for everyone to consider. COVID-19 swept through the silence of the Spring Festival. However, unity is strength, and the truth is seen in times of crisis.

When everyone was at a loss to find medical supplies, Zhang Chi firmly negotiated with suppliers of various channels step by step, persevering and always looking for protective supplies. The chairman and vice-chairmen of the 89 Preparatory Committee made a decision without hesitation at the first time, and donated as much as they could with the balance of the donation for the anniversary.

faced with the uncertainty of the price and transportation of protective materials, this donation took a long time. The medical protective goggles booked in advance were cancelled because they were determined to be the national controlled materials. The Preparatory Committee decided to donate medical masks according to the development of the epidemic. At that time, the mask market was basically futures speculation, paying first and then giving goods. Many materials are not available after payment, and some of them are of poor quality and cannot be used by front-line doctors. Up to now, the materials we have donated are as follows:

In this donation activity, because the residential area of Zhang Chi is closed, it is impossible to receive the goods, and Zhang Guojiang offered to help with the receiving and delivery. There is no high-profile publicity, no careful photos, and some are just hard-won materials carefully and carefully packaged and sent to Wuhan. This is the responsibility of 89 students in No.2 Middle School.

At the same time, Dong Xiaoguang, the 89th alumnus of No.2 Middle School, and the director of Qingdao Yishengjian Orthopedic Hospital of Integrated Traditional Chinese and Western Medicine, are also taking action. On the evening of January 29th, Qingdao Yishengjian and Qingdao Star Heart Hospital set up a medical team overnight-this is the first non-public hospital in China to help Wuhan medical team, and set out to help Wuhan on January 3th. When they arrived in Wuhan, they learned that the front-line materials were in short supply. They contacted the rear hospital urgently, purchased and donated six ventilators worth 4, yuan and protective materials worth 8, yuan to Hanyang Hospital to fully protect the front line against the epidemic.

in the process of anti-epidemic treatment, the members of the medical team, together with the medical staff of the local hospital, achieved excellent results of "zero death of confirmed patients, quick cure and discharge, and zero infection of medical staff", which was highly praised by Hanyang Hospital and Hanyang District Epidemic Prevention and Control Headquarters. On the morning of March 25th, the medical team successfully completed the 53-day stage task of supporting Hanyang Hospital to fight against COVID-19 and returned from Wuhan.

At the critical moment of epidemic prevention and anti-epidemic, Qingdao Yishengjian Orthopedic Hospital of Integrated Traditional Chinese and Western Medicine distributed 15, disposable medical masks with a value of more than 4, yuan purchased from overseas to enterprises in Beizhai area free of charge, focusing on ensuring enterprises to resume work and production.

On March 13th, Yi Shengjian donated another 2, masks to Haishan School to show his love for the safety of teachers and students, and to show his great love for medical ethics and social responsibility.

Under the same sky, Chinese Americans were in full swing to celebrate the New Year. When the first overseas help letter appeared on WeChat, everyone's attention was focused on Wuhan, China. There are more than 3 American alumni of Grade 89 in No.2 Middle School, distributed in more than a dozen states in the United States. Everyone cares about the domestic epidemic situation in different ways, and contributes money to participate in various Chinese associations and organizations to actively organize protective supplies for domestic hospitals.

Take Aring Zhang's classmate's South Bay town as an example, with a population of less than 2, and about 3 Chinese. From January 23, they decided to postpone the Spring Festival Gala celebration, and the focus of their work shifted to disaster relief in Wuhan. As a member of the Chinese Association, Aring Zhang experienced the enthusiasm of overseas Chinese for their motherland overseas.

On the morning of 23rd, the call for donation was issued, and nearly USD 1, was raised in just one day. On that night, it was decided to designate domestic hospitals to donate, contact the surrounding Chinese associations and integrate resources. From teleconference to division of labor and cooperation; From appealing for donations to finding sources of goods; From docking the charity Federation to finding a suitable receiving hospital; From closely following the adjustment of customs policies to determining logistics and airlines, everyone spends American time during the day and continues China time at night, and everyone works together in Qi Xin to run up and down.

With government procurement and large donations from major enterprises, overseas Chinese in Boston delivered the first batch of high-quality medical products to Shanghai Customs through ThermoFisher Company in the United States within one week, and finally transferred them to the designated hospitals in Hubei. All the hardships and puzzles during the overseas donation disappeared in the moment when the hospital received the goods.

With the spread of the epidemic in the United States, Chinese people put self-help on the work agenda, and set up various working groups to connect the public health, schools and police stations in the town to remind villagers to pay attention to personal protection and hygiene. When the American epidemic broke out in early March, the Chinese Association actively called on Chinese to donate food and medical supplies, and used the donation experience in Wuhan at that time to start a new round of reverse donation.

When I first met domestic volunteers online, I immediately divided the donation into 1 masks in each package and sent them to the homes of American volunteers. Parents of domestic students send 1 masks to the United States, which makes a mickle; Thousands of overseas people who have returned home have shipped masks; Mothers sew various mask sets for nurses at home to protect hard-won masks; The hospitals and regions donated at the beginning helped overseas Chinese with double enthusiasm and materials!

The Chinese organization in New Jersey, where Zhang Hui belongs, has also started the work of donating protective equipment to hospitals, contributing to the local Chinese and their own homes.

At the same time, in Canada, the epidemic situation is also spreading, and Ontario has entered a state of emergency, and front-line medical staff are in a very high-risk situation. There are also many retired medical staff who were called back to the hospital and abandoned their salaries to join the anti-epidemic front line. Many doctors collectively issued a petition calling on the federal and provincial governments to face up to the shortage of medical resources. I hope the government can provide more adequate medical supplies. These supplies include N95 masks, surgical masks, gloves, protective clothing masks, goggles, and other hand sanitizers for disinfection.

The virus knows no borders, and so do the hearts of students. The Toronto Alumni Association of Qingdao University, where Ma Hailei belongs, with the support of local Chinese parliamentarians, launched a donation activity of more than 5 people to overcome the difficulty of Canada's strict qualification requirements for donating medical materials, and donated medical protective materials such as N95 masks and disposable surgical masks urgently needed by local hospitals to North York hospitals, nursing homes and people in need. The donation is still in progress.

In the year of Gengzi, what kind of deep friendship and feelings of home and country does a small mask carry around the earth? Although the materials donated by everyone are only a drop in the bucket, it is a gathering of love, confidence and hope. There is no winter that is insurmountable, and there is no spring that will not come. We believe that all the sufferings will pass, and more light will shine in this sudden darkness. When the global economy moves towards the era of * * *, the villagers in the global village can cross national boundaries because of love, and Qi Xin will work together to defeat the virus! Come on, China, come on, world!
