"Please, take me with you". Wu Weiqing from Group 14 of our MHA program.

At 9 o’clock this morning, the Shanghai First People’s Hospital sent a medical team to Wuhan.

Indoors, those who are about to depart are raising their hands and swear aloud. Outdoors, their family members holding their suitcases and waiting to see them depart to Wuhan.

The reporter has found that some of the people in the team are actually couples. As peers, they support and encourage each other in this difficult task of saving lives. For the rest of them, they must to do arrangements and rely on their partners at home to take care of everything. Let us know them and listen to their voices.


Wu Weiqing, 54, is the oldest in a team of 156 people. Although she will retire next year she signed up as a volunteer as soon as she saw the notice. She said that many girls in the team are younger than her daughter.

Wu Weiqing's husband is also part of the medical staff. Wu told her husband yesterday that she might be going to the front line. The husband sent her a message saying: Please take me with you! I will be helping your back!
