I am writing to tell you about this.

At the same time, although cases have been found throughout the country, the Chinese people actively face it, together with wuhan to fight the epidemic. At this particular time, we should go out as little as possible, isolated. If we go out, we must wear protective masks to prevent ourselves from getting infected. In addition, we should keep good healthy habits and keep our body clean. As many Chinese say, “come on, Wuhan”, we believe we can certainly overcome the epidemic! Yours, Li Hua
