In the fight against the new coronavirus, Chinese people show their great wisdom (智慧) during hard times.
Masks are very important to the doctors and nurses in the very hospitals. To increase the production (提升产量), over 3,000 Chinese companies have changed their production lines (生产线) to make medical equipment(设备). For example, a company that used to make clothes spent 55 hours changing their production lines and is now able to make 1,200 protective medical suits(医疗防护服) every day. Several automakers in China have also turned their production lines into mask-making lines. Guangzhou Automobile is now able to make 1 million masks per day.
The idea of "sharing workers" has become popular during theoutbreak. As most people are staying at home, many workers in restaurants, cinemas and shopping malls have no work and are not getting paid. At the same time, online orders of goods and medical equipment grow, leaving e-business platforms (平台) such asJD.comandFeshhemashorthanded(人手短缺).
As a result, many people have started to look for part-time jobs. On Feb 10, over 1,800 workers started their new part-time jobs as delivery (送货) workers with Freshhema, Xinhua reported.
In cities like Wuhan that have large numbers of infected (被感染的) people, more hospital beds are needed. The quickest way is to build makeshift (临时的) hospitals. On Jan 23 and25, the government decided to build Huoshenshan Hospital and Leishenshan Hospital in Wuhan. More than 4,000 workers worked 24/7 in two shifts (轮班) to finish building the two hospitals within less than 15 days. The hospitals have about 2,600 beds. The amazing speed surprised many people around the world.
