The First Affiliated Hospital of Jinan University dispatched 65 more medical workers to Wuhan on Feb 21 to join the fight against the Covid-19 epidemic, for a total of 89 to date. JNU Party Secretary Lin Rupeng and President Song Xianzhong attended the farewell ceremony to see off the expedition medical team.

Led by Xu Dianshuang, head of the hospital's department of medical administration, and Yin Haiyan, chief of critical care, the medical team consists of 17 doctors and 48 nurses. After training in Wuhan, they will take over an intensive-care area with counterparts to aid local hospitals' novel coronavirus control.

Dr. Meng Heng, a member of the team, submitted an application letter to support Wuhan at the outbreak of the virus. Fearing that his elderly mother would worry about him, he sent her to his brother's home and dared not tell her his decision to help Wuhan, discussing it only with his wife and uncle. My uncle is a doctor, so he can approve my plan more easily, Meng said. As for my kid, I think he will certainly understand my decision and be proud of me when he grows up.
