“Yì” zhàn dàodǐ, pǐfū yǒu zé 11/5000 Everyone is responsible for fighting the epidemic
Release time：2020-01-31
I am a general lawyer from Zhongshan City, Guangdong Province.
Since Zhong Nanshan announced on January 20 that the new coronavirus can be transmitted from person to person, the epidemic in Wuhan has quickly affected the hearts of people across the country. When I turn on the circle of friends and TV every day, I often feel powerless and helpless.
In the face of the disaster, we are neither doctors nor nurses. In addition to paying attention to the number of new infections across the country every day, we have also learned that many hospitals in Wuhan are facing a critical situation of "streaking" due to a shortage of masks. We are like ants on a hot pot. , Followed in a hurry.
Later, our Zhongshan Alumni Association of Zhongnan University of Economics and Law, Guangdong Baoxin Law Firm, and some friends did a little thing together-spontaneously organized to raise medical masks for the alma mater and Wuhan medical staff. We know that compared to the medical staff who risked the risk of being infected in the front-line fight against the epidemic, this was a lack of courage, but the alma mater said "a single spark can start a prairie fire", our trivial public welfare behavior, perhaps It is worth sharing one or two, to inspire more resourceful, capable, and caring members of the society to join the fight against the epidemic. As Zhong Nanshan said: "With the help of the people of the whole country, Wuhan will definitely tide over the difficulties."01 Speaking of the small and micro charity project with my friends The idea of donating supplies to the alma mater and the disaster-stricken area in Hubei originated from a few alumni chatting in the WeChat group on January 23, which is the twenty-ninth year of the new year.
At that time, the local masks in Zhongshan were not as expensive in Luoyang as they are now. Even though it is difficult to buy them on the market, you can still find some by mobilizing friends or alumni around you. I talked about my ideas in a small group of a few alumni, and everyone was very supportive. Sister Lantian donated 10,000 yuan in the first time, and several alumni donated. In the morning, we purchased more than 1,500 Honeywell N95 masks from a local pharmacy. As masks were rarely sold on the market that day, and many alumni hope to buy some masks and send them to relatives and friends in Hubei or Wuhan for use, we gave priority to these masks to alumni. In the afternoon of the same day, we uniformly helped alumni to deliver most of the masks to all parts of Hubei. Soon after, we began to look for sources of supply everywhere. With the help of alumni, we found a supply of 2,000 masks in Jiangmen, Guangdong and Jinhua, Zhejiang, and I also found a supply of 5,000 masks in Zhongshan. At 8 pm on January 23, I posted a circle of friends to record the issue of masks that day. That night, my friend Liang Xueni from Guangzhou transferred me 50,000 yuan in cash to participate in this charity project. In the next two days, my colleague Chen Mian and other colleagues raised more than 50,000 cash. Yusheng, a university student, and Huanqun, a former colleague of the prosecutor’s office, also participated. Their companies wanted to purchase a large amount of medical supplies to donate to the epidemic area.
The more meaningful work we do is to help link resources, just like a universal socket. Due to the need for a large amount of purchases, I have joined many front-line material groups. Most of the time every day is to find real sources of supplies online, review the qualifications and quality of these sources, and connect with hospital contacts to find and confirm real aid needs. So many friends asked me to help find the source of masks, and some even thought I was selling masks. Since January 23, we have helped dozens of local units and companies purchase hundreds of thousands of masks. Precisely because I can directly understand the needs of the front line, I can also feel their difficulties and isolation and helplessness, so I also bear more powerless negative emotions. Therefore, this Spring Festival, I cannot sit in front of the TV and watch the Spring Festival Gala happily as usual. The festive atmosphere conveyed by the party and the sadness I felt from the front line made me sad.
As a lawyer, I think these are not enough. During the Spring Festival holiday, I wrote two short articles on the public WeChat account of "Guarantee Criminal Defense", "Criminal Interpretation|Negligence of Infectious Disease Prevention" and "During Disasters, We Need to Be Vigilant Ten Criminal Legal Risks of China. I wrote this paragraph in the article: The menacing Wuhan pneumonia is spreading, all kinds of information have maxed out the circle of friends and WeChat groups, and the city of Wuhan this morning is also worrying. Facing the raging virus, thinking about the teachers, classmates, students and friends in Wuhan, I feel a deep sense of powerlessness. As a legal person, although you cannot fight the front line of the fight against the virus like a doctor... This sentiment may have been experienced by many colleagues. Apart from these, what else can we do as a legal person? At this moment, I can't wait to be a doctor who can go to the front line of the fight against the epidemic.
02 Everyone is responsible, what is the contribution of our ordinary people? For ordinary people, the important question is whether it is possible to make our contribution? The answer is yes. In the face of catastrophe, we need to work together to overcome the difficulties. But a society also needs a rational voice. As Lawyer Si Weijiang said, “If we don’t reflect and improve enough in the face of such a catastrophe, it would be a tragedy even worse than this epidemic.” From this disaster, we need to reflect on whether the wildlife protection legislation is adequate and why the rampant illegal trade in wildlife cannot be eliminated. We need to reflect on whether we lack a legal system to effectively respond to the epidemic. We even have to reflect on our social governance, reflect on our control of citizen speech... Therefore, I borrow a passage from Teacher Su Li to answer this question: What is the contribution of our ordinary people? "A real contribution can only come from a true and sincere care and trust in China's past and reality; I believe and assume that everyone in the past and today (including Western scholars) is roughly as rational as we are , Their choice is also contextualized rationality; then based on this, they can deeply understand and discover reality, and make academic and theoretical generalizations; they have a constant reflection on their own research findings, and they have the courage to Stick to your own point of view, and be ready to give up your conclusions and accept more convincing theories, models, and opinions in the face of new and convincing evidence." I hope that after the epidemic, there will be more reflections, less recognition; more lessons learned, and less experience. I hope that this lesson will become history as soon as possible, and we will build effective and feasible rules and regulations to prevent similar lessons from happening again! ! ! p.s. On January 30, we were still able to see a serious shortage of medical supplies in front-line hospitals, and even heard our classmates say that a hospital had no protective clothing that caused front-line doctors to be infected. This kind of news is very sad and really puzzling. I hope that the shortage of front-line supplies can be alleviated as soon as possible. I hope that doctors and nurses who are fighting on the front line of the fight against the epidemic will protect themselves from being infected by the virus. I hope that the epidemic will pass quickly.
