BEIJING — The All-China Women's Federation and the Ministry of Civil Affairs Monday announced 10 women vanguards in community epidemic prevention and control nationwide.
The 10 women community workers have led community Party members on the front lines, mobilized residents to help with efforts, collected first-hand information by checking buildings, enterprises and stores in the neighborhoods and provided daily necessities to residents in need, according to a statement released by the two departments.
They have been working around the clock, fully committed to local epidemic prevention and control work against all odds. One of them even died in the line of duty, the statement said.
They are the outstanding representatives of the more than 1.5 million women community workers in urban and rural areas, almost one-third of the total frontline community workers across the country. They have made important contributions to containing the spread of the virus, it said.
The two departments called on all women and community workers to follow the lead of the vanguards and fully implement epidemic control measures in communities to strive for victory over the epidemic.
