Liu Jiapeng, a children's book editor, stayed in Wuhan during the Spring Festival for the past four decades. "I always stayed with my family, and we would have every meal together," said Liu. "But this year, I haven't had one meal with them."
On the day of the Lunar New Year's Eve, he and his wife bought some goods for their parents, brought them to their house and briefly chatted. As they were waiting for the elevator, Liu looked back and saw his father standing at the windowsill, watching them leave.
China is mobilizing medical resources nationwide to aid Wuhan and control the epidemic. Doctors, nurses and experts from across the nation have been selected to join the battle, and manufacturers have restarted their plants to produce medical consumables that have been running short in many places.
A national research team of 14 experts, headed by renowned respiratory scientist Zhong Nanshan, has been set up to help prevent and control the outbreak on Friday.
"This is going to be an unforgettable Spring Festival," said Chen Ying, a writer. "Because I feel that at this moment, there are so many families that I do not know, in every corner of this city, praying for our home."
"My New Year wish is simple," said Liu Jie. "I hope the virus will soon be conquered and everyone in Wuhan and the whole nation would be safe and healthy."
