China’s Frontline Heroes Battle COVID Surge with Unity

Frontline medical workers across China are stepping up as hospitals face a sharp rise in COVID-19 cases. At Wuhan Puren Hospital, the epicenter of the pandemic's early days, staff are working tirelessly to manage the latest wave.

Dr. Luo Kuan, head of the Neurosurgery Department, shared insights with CGTN Stringer during a recent visit. ‘Our workload has been intense, but we’re confident in our teamwork,’ he said. ‘No challenge is too big when we stand together.’

Despite long shifts and crowded wards, doctors and nurses remain resilient. The hospital has optimized resources to prioritize critical care, reflecting lessons learned since 2020. ‘Every patient deserves our best,’ Dr. Luo added. ‘This is what we trained for.’

While details on case numbers remain unclear, the sentiment echoes nationwide: solidarity is key. As one nurse put it, ‘Hard times don’t last, but teamwork does.’
