The All-China Women's Federation (ACWF) held a symposium on May 7 to promote the heroic deeds of women medical staff in the battle against novel coronavirus (COVID-19) and motivate women to learn from the role models and struggle to be "most beautiful strivers."

Shen Yueyue, President of the ACWF, delivered a speech at the symposium.

Shen stressed that women's federations should firm up the work of guiding, serving and contacting women, support medical women to continue to work hard at their posts and contribute to building a "Healthy China," and unite women to win the battle against the epidemic and promote economic and social development.

During the meeting, Yu Yanhong, Member of the Leading Party Members' Group of the National Health Commission, Secretary of the Leading Party Members' Group of the National Administration of Traditional Chinese Medicine and part-time Vice-President of the ACWF, shared stories of women who have fought against COVID-19 on the front line via video connection.

Yu spoke highly of women's role in the anti-virus fight, saying that the advantages of traditional Chinese medicine in disease prevention and treatment should be given further full play, and health knowledge publicized in a bid to promote public fitness.

Shen spoke highly of the efforts and dedication of women medical workers in the battle against COVID-19.

Noting that it is a major task for women's federations to unite women to contribute to winning the battle against COVID-19 and promoting economic and social development, Shen stressed that women's federations at all levels should publicize the stories of female role models on the front line of the anti-epidemic battle to fully showcase China's strength, spirit and efficiency, and encourage women to play a role in achieving the two centennial goals.

Women's federations were urged to continue to serve women medics, help establish platforms, provide opportunities and create conditions to enhance their professionalism, and help solve their difficulties in looking after elderly family members and raising children.

Shen hoped that women medical workers will always place people's lives above everything else, continue to implement regular epidemic prevention and control measures, protect people's safety and health, and publicize epidemic prevention and control and health knowledge. 

Women medical workers were also urged to motivate more women to create and share healthy lives, help build a "Healthy China" and win the battle against poverty.
