Two years on, the masks we put on still have not come off.

Like a sheet of paper folded in half, from one end to the other, from one outbreak to the next, fighting the epidemic at the start of the year and still fighting it at the end.

Time has changed a great deal, and yet it feels as if nothing has changed.

Since early 2020, Zhengzhou has been through four outbreaks.

According to the latest notice from the Henan Provincial Health Commission, from 0:00 to 24:00 on January 6, 2022, the province reported 56 new locally confirmed cases (26 in Zhengzhou, 1 in Luoyang, 28 in Xuchang, 1 in Xinyang; including 20 asymptomatic infections reclassified as confirmed, of which 15 in Zhengzhou, 3 in Xuchang, 1 in Luoyang, 1 in Xinyang); 2 new imported asymptomatic infections reclassified as confirmed cases; 1 new imported asymptomatic infection; no new suspected cases.

Zhengzhou launched its second round of citywide nucleic acid testing today, needing to sample 12.6 million people within 6 hours - an average of 2.1 million per hour, 35,000 per minute and 583 per second...

Everyone has thrown themselves into the tense epidemic fight.

Medical workers keep working tirelessly;

police officers hold their posts and maintain order;

........

All we can do is protect ourselves and lend them our modest strength.

Fighting the epidemic side by side with Zhengzhou - Xupai is taking action! The Xupai battery dealer in Zhengzhou, during this critical period of epidemic control, delivered tents and heaters to frontline workers, easing the winter cold during their duty hours and giving them a moment of warmth, and giving people waiting for nucleic acid testing a place sheltered from wind, cold and rain.

In this cold winter, we extend our highest respect to the steel-willed fighters who face danger in the opposite direction, hold their posts and do all they can to protect human lives.

The folded days of the epidemic have passed quickly - so fast that the epidemic has been with us for two years already; and yet they have dragged, so slowly that the epidemic is not over and 2020 still seems like yesterday.

May this be the last winter shadowed by the epidemic.
