Tianjin University Tianjin Hospital
Ding Guimei, the first batch of medical team members and nurses in critical care department who went to Hubei.
-I am happy and proud to have successfully completed my first job in the Red Zone.
01/29
We are the first batch of medical teams to aid Hubei in Tianjin, and arrived at Wuhan Airport at 7: 00 pm on the 26th (the second day of New Year’s Day). After a day of training, I was officially on duty in the early morning of the 29th, responsible for the night shift from 0 to 4. In order not to go to the toilet during work, I wore adult diapers and didn’t drink water or eat after 22:00.
The Second Hospital of WISCO has a zigzag structure, with the ward on three sides and our work area on one side. Our team members, including doctors and nurses, went upstairs from the staff door, put on protective equipment in the clean area, and carefully handed over to the previous team members after entering the red area, with a total of 52 patients.

Although most patients have finished transfusion and fell asleep smoothly from 0:00 to 4:00, some patients still have fever, hold their breath and feel unwell. We monitor the oxygen saturation of patients who hold their breath, give them oxygen therapy, and measure the temperature of all patients. Because there are 21 thermometers in the ward, they can only meet the measurement of patients in one ward at a time, and they must be disinfected before measuring another ward, so that the thermometers need to be disinfected three times during the whole measurement. We gave antipyretic treatment to patients with fever, helped them to make hot water, told them to drink more water, and patiently carried out psychological comfort work. In this way, the work was carried out nervously and orderly, and four hours were spent in the busy time unconsciously.
After the night shift, we made a serious handover with the next team member and took off the protective equipment according to the procedure. It was past 6 o’clock when we returned to the station. Although our nose, ears and head were all hurt by protective equipment, we were happy and proud to have successfully completed our first work in the Red Zone.

On January 28th, 2020, the second batch of medical teams from Tianjin to Hubei flew to Wuhan by special plane, and it was early morning after they arrived at the resident hotel and settled their luggage. In order to give everyone a full rest, the team gathered at 9: 00 a.m. on January 29 and had a unified meal in the hotel restaurant. After the meal, they went to the hotel conference room for pre-war planning and deployment.
After the meeting, I and six other teachers in the intensive care unit formed the second medical team’s material management team, counted the medical materials of the whole team from 10 am to 3 pm, and established an electronic material registration and access record to realize information management. I had dinner at the restaurant around 18: 30, and now it’s 19: 30. So far, we haven’t received any further work instructions.
Summary record of the first day:
Dining, accommodation and daily life problems: When staying in a local hotel in Wuhan, the service is in place, and the staff provide all the daily life needed by the medical team. At the same time, the team leader is making statistics on other necessities of the medical team, which is currently being purchased and will be in place soon. The daily life of the medical team is fully guaranteed and there is no worries.
Information communication: The medical team has set up groups according to the actual situation to keep information accessible at any time. Personal mobile phones of medical team members are fully guaranteed by operators for fees and traffic. No worries. Just received the notice that centralized and unified training will be held at 8: 30 tomorrow morning, and there is nothing else.
Liu Meirong, the first medical team member and deputy chief physician of respiratory medicine in Hubei.
-The fellows and leaders in Tianjin are our strong backing.
02/02
On this special day of 20200202, all our team members received cordial condolences from the leaders and people in their hometown and felt extremely happy and warm. Although I am over 40 years old, my child is only 8 years old. My parents are in poor health and they are reluctant to help me take care of my child. My lover is also a doctor, and it is difficult to take good care of my family. Before I left, I really looked at the children’s tears and listened to my parents’ constant orders to go out. My lover came here just after work to send me to war, and my family was my concern, which was the driving force for me to win the battle. The leaders and colleagues of our Tianjin Hospital have also made great efforts to prepare for us day and night after receiving the order, which fully guaranteed our life and work here. Before leaving, the leading cadres in the front yard personally sent us to the war, and the dean personally ran Li for us. Before parting, we were moved and moved. After parting, we always contacted and cared about the situation of all of us in the epidemic area, and we felt practical and warm from the bottom of our hearts. Tianjin’s fellow villagers and leaders are our strong backing. We are full of strength in front-line work and will surely return victorious!

-We rushed to Wuhan to work hard and rely on everyone’s strength to jointly overcome the epidemic.

I didn’t have time to open the jacket brought by Tao Ge. I like it very much! Thank you leaders! My family also received vegetables and fruits sent by the hospital leaders, as well as warm-hearted care! Everything is fine at home, and so am I! Here, I made many friends and got the care and recognition of many teachers! My family said, please let the leaders and I work at ease, and each of us just did what we should do.
In Wuhan, there are many volunteers to help the medical team, and there is a teacher in the party school as a volunteer to help the canteen cook. All the staff in Wuhan are very friendly to us, including the security guard at the gate, the hotel waiter, the driver who picks us up and down, and the aunt in the canteen. They always advise us to eat more! Tianjin medical team is also very concerned about us, and problems in life and work can be solved in time.
01/31

On the sixth day in Wuhan, the weather was sunny and sunny, and it was warm on the body, and everyone’s hearts were warm! The logistics support of Tianjin medical team is still very powerful to meet everyone’s living needs. There are also some teachers who volunteer to provide psychological counseling for everyone and relieve their inner pressure. Today is my day off, but I still know the situation at the front line through other teachers, and everyone’s feedback is good news. Several patients in our ward have not had a fever for several days in a row, and their mood has stabilized a lot, and they have slowly accepted us and accepted the illness. The nurses of Tianjin Medical Team are divided into eight teams, and the members of each team encourage each other and cheer each other up, full of positive energy! Everyone insists that we should work hard and rely on everyone’s strength to jointly overcome the epidemic. In this battle without smoke, no one will back down and win the battle! Inadvertently, I saw several orange trees near my residence, which were fruitful and full of vitality! My relatives said that in Guangdong, people regard oranges as a symbol of good luck. I wish everyone in the team safe and sound, and I wish Wuhan a speedy recovery!

On the 7th day in Wuhan, today’s work is over. I really feel that wearing protective clothing is sweating like rain! Once again, I cooperated with the new team, which was very smooth. Today, the head nurse of our group rested and was appointed as the temporary head nurse. I know this is the trust of the head nurse and a rare opportunity for me! Because the red zone is special, it is difficult for us to communicate with the outside world. We can report the situation of the red zone to the headquarters in time by walkie-talkie and telephone and solve it quickly. The orders conveyed by the headquarters should also be given feedback at the first time. This special duty requires me to coordinate the relationship between medical care and close cooperation; Coordinate the relationship between each group and help each other; Coordinate the relationship between nurses and patients and gain the trust of patients! Fortunately, the work was completed smoothly and everyone cooperated, which gave us more confidence to persevere. Today, our family members were very distressed when they saw that we were doing disinfection and cleaning work. They kept saying, "This should not be your job. Just be responsible for seeing a doctor!" We are also very touched. As a nurse, as a nurse in a special period, we should adhere to the spirit of being cautious and independent!
Zhang Tao, the second batch of medical team members and intensive care doctor who went to Hubei.
This is the reason why I gave up the opportunity of further study in the United States and followed the medical team to the epidemic area for the first time.

On the front line of the "epidemic", Zhang Tao submitted an application for joining the Party to the temporary Party branch of Tianjin Medical Rescue Team.
Communist party member is the backbone of Tianjin medical aid team in Hubei. In the new battlefield, party member people gathered together to solemnly swear to review their pledge to join the Party. The Party branch of the medical team gave full play to party member’s vanguard, exemplary and leading role, and practiced the pledge of "being ready to sacrifice everything for the party and the people" with practical actions. In this medical team, some party member once fought as the backbone in the front line in the extraordinary times such as SARS and H1N1. When the novel coronavirus epidemic came, they rushed to the front line without hesitation and led the whole medical team to protect life and health. In the face of death, these party member soldiers who resolutely went to the battlefield wrote a touching song of triumph with their youth and life. During the SARS period, I was a medical student who was about to graduate. I was moved by the heroic deeds of many party member predecessors, and I resolutely chose the major of critical care medicine at work.
More importantly, under the leadership of the party branch of the medical team, I got a close look at party member’s dedication and feelings of serving the people, which further strengthened my urgent desire to join the party organization and become a member of it, and also strengthened our determination to win the war against novel coronavirus epidemic prevention and control with one heart and one mind. Whenever the people of China are in trouble, it is the Communist Party of China (CPC) who restores their confidence. No matter what difficulties the people of China encounter, the Communist Party of China (CPC) will definitely come forward to save the people from fire and water! This is also the reason why I gave up the opportunity of further study in the United States and followed the medical aid team to the epidemic area at the first time, and it is also my initial intention to apply for joining the Communist Party of China (CPC). I hope that the Party organization will test me, and I will demand myself by the standards of a communist party member and resolutely complete this task.
01/31
Although we haven’t entered the red zone during the day, we haven’t been idle for a minute. In the afternoon, we attended the meeting of the sense control group and have been making preparations for entering the red zone in the early morning to ensure safety. What’s the saying? "Where there is no angels in white, it’s just that a group of children have changed their clothes and learned the way of their predecessors, saving lives and robbing people of death." Now, as king of the children, I have to protect them.
02/01
After entering the red zone, the medical staff will be tested not only psychologically but also physically. If you go to the bathroom on the way to work, you will increase the consumption of a protective suit, so everyone will try their best not to go to the toilet. As a doctor, I used diapers for myself for the first time.
Although the electronic topographic map of the Second Hospital of WISCO has been memorized by heart, it is still necessary to be familiar with the actual terrain. After leading the team to enter at night, we will quickly cooperate with the nursing department to understand the layout of wards, intensive care units, elevators and fire exits, and confirm that the telephone network is unobstructed to avoid being at a loss when emergencies occur. Consult all the current medical documents, check the rescue drugs, and fill in any gaps immediately, so as to ensure that all patients are in stable condition when taking over, and carry forward the emergency graded diagnosis and treatment system here.

Mu Qun, the first batch of medical team members and nurses in critical care department who went to Hubei.
-I repay love with everything.
01/27
Today is my second day in Qingshan District, Wuhan. In these two days, I always remember the words of the hospital leaders in my mind, and I feel warm when I see all kinds of medical and living materials prepared for us. From the moment we arrived in Wuhan, I knew that I was shouldering the great trust and mission of all the Tianjin medical circles. Under the leadership of our team leader, Secretary Simon Lu (Cancer Hospital), we were United, swore an oath to party flag, and assured the Party that after more professional training, we were all gearing up and ready to rush to the front line all the time to "fight".
In our daily life, both the people in our hometown and the local people in Wuhan always ask us questions. The tour leaders try their best to coordinate the inconveniences in our lives, while the local government staff and hotel staff are afraid that we can’t adapt to the wet and cold climate in the south, and they have prepared quilts and hot water bottles for us. We are very moved by all kinds of thoughtfulness and concern.
Today is the birthday of the team leader, and a simple bowl of noodles will be a birthday; Colleagues also cut each other’s hair very short, in order to win more time to save lives; Many little things touched everyone, including my mobile phone call, and were also told by Wen Wei’s short message that our medical team in Hubei was exempted from telephone charges in order to report to our families that they were safe and not to stop. For another example, my lover, who was most worried about, was fractured due to a recent accidental fall, and is now recovering at home, which is exactly in need of care. When this sudden epidemic came, when I decided to come to the rescue, he resolutely supported me with actions, endured the pain and insisted on accompanying my elderly and unaware mother for the New Year, helping me hide it and making the elderly happy. Support my work with his practical actions that veterans can’t express well, so that I have no worries.
Today, the leaders of the hospital visited my family, which gave me great encouragement and motivation invisibly, which made me more confident and more complete the glorious task and historical mission given to me by the party.
Today is my first day at work, and I was assigned to work from 0: 00 to 4: 00. Some comrades have already started to work during the day. It is said that there are more than 60 infected patients in the hospital, and comrades in the day shift have not come down yet. I have made full preparations to ensure the completion of the work. According to our solid skills and clinical experience in training and peacetime, I am confident to complete the tasks entrusted to me by today’s organization. Come on, Wuhan, please rest assured that I will definitely live up to my mission!
01/28
Today is the third day of coming to Qingshan District, Wuhan. From 12 o’clock last night, I started my formal work in the Second Hospital of WISCO. I made a smooth handover with comrades in the day shift, connected the "baton", carefully and quickly counted medical supplies, patrolled the ward, and quickly became familiar with the working environment. Then I immediately used my professional skills and knowledge of infection prevention and control in the intensive care department to invest in the medical treatment of patients in time.
In contact with patients, I was surprised to find that as a medical staff, I have no fear in treating these "special" patients, and I feel that they are just patients, just uncomfortable people who need our help. Perhaps this is the habit that my career has brought me.
Explain patiently the questions raised by patients, try to eliminate their nervousness and anxiety, do a good job of appeasing patients, and let patients establish confidence and cooperate with treatment. Details determine success or failure, and everything should start with small things. The rescue work of Tianjin medical team is managed by districts, and the prevention and control management is strengthened. Before entering the ward, the procedure is to put on protective clothing, isolation gown, hat, mask, goggles, shoe covers and two layers of surgical gloves. This professional protective clothing is disposable and cannot be reused once it is taken off. In order to save resources for the front, after the whole work, everyone basically does not eat, drink or go to the toilet.
Although the work is hard, I am very gratified. I am doing sacred and meaningful work, and I am very proud. From the moment I came to Wuhan, I was very confident to win this tough battle. Come on!
Gong Chuanyong, the first group of medical team members who went to Hubei and the Department of Critical Care Medicine.
-Go deep into the Red Zone and be proud of choosing a career as a doctor.
01/31
I fought in the Red Zone for more than five hours today. This is the second time I have entered the Red Zone. The situation is getting better every day. I am familiar with the environment and the patients. The fear and tension of entering the Red Zone slowly dissipate.
Today is the morning shift, and the work of the morning shift is the heaviest. Let’s start with the rounds and ask about each patient’s condition. For each patient, 50 patients have been checked from beginning to end. One and a half hours have passed. The clothes in the protective clothing are soaked, and the protective eyepiece is full of breath. The crushed ear roots and nose bridge are soaked in sweat, and the pain is unbearable. However, many of them are disposable consumables and they are not willing to take off.
Back to the doctor’s station to open the doctor’s advice, fifty patients and two doctors turned over one by one, and the biggest difficulty was that they couldn’t see clearly, and the second was that the fingers of the two-layer gloves and hoops were so dumb that they couldn’t write. Overcoming many difficulties, I finally finished the treatment for all the patients.
Just want to sit and have a rest, the nurse came to look for: Dr. Gong, bed 52 suddenly held her breath! I hurried over to check, the patient kept breathing in bed, I put finger pulse oxygen monitoring on the patient, and the saturation was only 70. I quickly gave the patient oxygen, and I gave him drugs to relieve spasmolysis and asthma. After watching the patient’s symptoms ease a little, the blood oxygen saturation recovered to above 95, and finally I lay down and rested quietly. I told the patient a few words and went back to the doctor’s station. In the following two hours, my doctors and I kept running around in various wards. Time passed quickly, and the next group of doctors came in to take over the patients. When I took off isolation gown, I instantly felt that my back was sore and my whole body was weak. The previous high tension made me forget all the discomfort.
Alas, time and tide wait for no man. When we fought against SARS 17 years ago, our physical strength was really much better than now. In my early forties, I still have the opportunity to go to the front line, go deep into the red zone, and be proud of choosing a career as a doctor. I’m glad to have successfully completed this shift. I’m going back to my dormitory to recharge my batteries and prepare to continue fighting tomorrow!
Today, I received a letter from my son. I am very happy and gratified. My son has grown up. I wonder if he will grow a little taller when I get back. Hearing my son say that he is proud of me, I suddenly feel a little greater. It’s good, although every day we experience is hard, after the hard work, everything is still full of hope.

-Don’t cry. Let’s go. More people need my help.

On New Year’s Eve, it is the Spring Festival and the day of family reunion. In response to the call of the higher authorities, the hospital sent out the news of setting up a medical team to aid Hubei in Tianjin. As a respiratory doctor, I thought: At this time, it must be rushed up. Unexpectedly, Colleagues in Corey were so enthusiastic. I told everyone that I would go. I had experience in SARS, but I was still fighting in the emergency department. I didn’t discuss with my family, so I signed up.
However, after the impulse, there is indeed a little regret, not regret signing up, but regret. At that time, I should say hello to my family who loved me. However, I know that if I say hello, it may not be easy to go. I am very entangled in my heart. As a doctor, I am duty-bound to treat Wuhan’s urgent assistance; As a daughter, I really feel guilty in the face of my parents’ concern. With a nervous mood, I came home … my parents are over 70, my father is weak and often sick, and my lover’s work unit is far away from home and often can’t come back. So if I am away, the task of taking care of the children will mainly fall on my mother.
I told my family about the registration. My parents were silent for a long time, feeling that it was really a tormented moment. I was afraid that they would complain that I didn’t care about my family, and they were afraid that they would hold back tears and say, "Let’s go, don’t worry about it." Finally, my mother said to me, "You are a doctor, this is your duty. We will overcome the difficulties at home and support you to go to the front line." I feel my mother’s tears in her eyes, but I know that she dare not cry in front of me.
On the second day of New Year’s Day, the day when I went back to my mother’s house was also the day when we set out. When I left, I saw my mother always secretly wiping her tears where I thought I couldn’t see it. I understand my mother’s heart, just as I am worried about my own child, because my mother is worried about traveling thousands of miles away and going to an epidemic area. Don’t cry. Let’s go. More people need my help.
I felt the enthusiasm of Wuhan people on the first day I arrived in Wuhan. We live in Qingshan Party School, and the service staff take care of all aspects of our lives as much as possible. The leaders also ask everyone what difficulties they have in their lives at any time. The first batch of medical teams came to Wuhan with a total of 138 people, and there were five people in our hospital. As the captain and secretary of the temporary party branch, we should not only arrange our own lives, but also care about the situation of other team members. Everyone once again read the pledge of joining the party at the party branch meeting, determined to successfully complete the task.
On January 28th, we officially took over the Second Hospital of WISCO. As the first group of doctors to enter the red zone, my heart is full of anxiety and uneasiness. As the medical team leader of the first group, I took two other comrades to finish the handover work first. We are in charge of the ward on the second floor, with a total of 62 patients. Because this ward in the Second Hospital of WISCO has been idle for a long time, it is still very difficult to start medical work at first. Everyone counted the drugs and sorted out the workflow. Half of the patients in the ward were still relatively heavy. And they are isolated here, without family members, and most of them are very anxious. While treating them, we also need psychological counseling to relieve their anxiety and anxiety.

On January 31, I have been working in the Red Zone for three consecutive days. After careful treatment these days, most of the patients have improved a lot and their emotions have gradually stabilized. Today, several patients thanked us, and my heart was warm and my fatigue was swept away. In fact, the living conditions here are ok, and the biggest challenge for us is the working conditions: every four hours, plus putting on and taking off masks, hats, protective clothing, isolation gown, double gloves, goggles, shoe covers and other steps will take about five hours. During these five hours, everyone can’t drink water or go to the toilet. They walk very slowly, wear goggles and gloves to work very hard, and their nose and ears have been crushed by masks. It is estimated that mothers and children should think how I have become so ugly when they see me. Although it’s hard work, I suddenly feel that as a doctor, I only want so much, seeing that the patients are getting better one by one and their gratitude can be distinguished through the oxygen mask.

Today is a special day, 20200202. On this special day, the medical team of Tianjin Aid Hubei received a special letter, which was signed by Secretary Li Hongzhong and Mayor Zhang Guoqing, expressing condolences to the Tianjin medical workers fighting in Wuhan.
At 10: 30 in the morning, except for the comrades who are working in the ward, all the off-duty comrades came to the conference room on the fourth floor of the party school on time. Secretary Simon Lu, the leader of the first medical team, read this letter full of true feelings for everyone. As mentioned in the letter, some comrades have elderly parents, some comrades have children who are about to take the college entrance examination, and some are newly married. However, when everyone heard the call of the organization, no one retreated, and everyone quickly gathered in Wuhan for a common goal of "defeating the epidemic and defending the country".
This letter fully reflects the concern and love of the party and the government for our medical staff. At the critical moment of entering the epidemic area for a week, this letter is like a shot in the arm for the soldiers, which has doubled everyone’s morale. Everyone said that we must live up to the entrustment of the municipal party Committee and the municipal government, live up to the expectations of the people of Wuhan, and win the epidemic and stop the war, so as to achieve "winning the battle, zero infection."
The first batch of medical team members went to Li Wei, the first ward of respiratory and critical care medicine.
-where is my responsibility and mission? Everyone’s concern is my strong backing.

Today is the sixth day of aiding Hubei, always reminding myself that I can’t relax my vigilance, and my mind is always on high alert. Coming here is not only as simple as finishing the work on time, but also a great psychological challenge. From the moment I received the notice, my heart was still very uneasy. I felt that the whole person was in a state of ignorance, and all kinds of delicious food in the New Year became so tasteless in an instant. The sound of mobile phone information transmission has been drumming … blessings from friends and colleagues. Although there are many warm words, the inner feelings are indescribable. When I heard the text message in the middle of the night, I got up immediately to check it, and I was afraid of missing all kinds of emergency notices. My husband said I was crazy. I didn’t tell my parents before I came, for fear that they might be worried that my sister still got the news from others, otherwise she wouldn’t know that I had come to Wuhan, and now I have to report my peace to them every day. My grandmother, who is nearly 80 years old, called to ask if I had gone to Wuhan, and I said, no. She said: I can’t go! Let’s not go. I said: no, don’t worry! Just hang up the phone. As a nurse, this is my duty. Seventeen years ago, I was a junior high school student. At that time, I was protected by my predecessors. Seventeen years later, I became a nurse. At this time, it is time for me to protect them and pass them on from generation to generation. This is the traditional virtue of the Chinese nation. It’s warm to see the greetings from the leaders after work. They are really the strong backing behind us, and they really take care of us in every possible way. Thank you very much.

Today is the ninth day of rushing to Wuhan, and the weather is a little cloudy. After getting up in the afternoon, I saw a light rain outside. Just today, it snowed in Tianjin, 20200202. It can be said that today is a special day, but the whole country, everyone’s heart, lives with the same wish, that is, come on, Wuhan! Come on, China!
A meeting of all medical team members was held this morning. The content of the meeting was a letter of condolences from the Tianjin Municipal Party Committee and Municipal Government to the medical team in Hubei. The letter mentioned many thanks and blessings for the medical team, which made us very grateful. You are our strong backing!
The leaders’ concern for us always exists. Although we are struggling here, the situation in our hometown is also very tense, and the citizens also consciously do a good job of self-prevention.
The staff of Bai Yushan Street in Qingshan District have given us great logistical support and constantly provided us with daily necessities. These are the fruits they sent. With such logistical support, I believe we will win the battle!
They are also flesh and blood like you and me.
But just put on that white coat
A sense of mission and responsibility keeps you going.
It is because of you.
The red zone of the epidemic has not become the "red zone" of life.
The epidemic can be isolated, but the warmth cannot be stopped.
No winter is insurmountable.
There is not a spring that will not come.
He came to Shuojiang every year and played this song to greet him.
