During the 2020 COVID-19 outbreak, the Chinese mainland faced a critical battle against the virus. Now, a behind-the-scenes visit to the Wuhan Center for Disease Control & Prevention reveals how their team continues to combat health crises with precision and care.
CGTN’s recent tour of the center in Jiangxia District showcased the tireless work of staff tracking potential outbreaks. Their mission? To ‘race against time’ by mapping the movements of infected individuals through detailed research. This helps identify and isolate cases swiftly—like detectives solving a public health mystery.
But it’s not just data they handle. Staff also meet patients face-to-face in hospitals, ensuring no close contact is overlooked—all while strictly protecting personal privacy. ‘Respect is key,’ one worker shared, emphasizing their commitment to balancing urgency with ethics.
