There is a letter for you.
Dear Qingqing:
Very long not your news, What have you been up to lately?
You might want to know what I have seen and felt, I would like to talk with you about what has happened in the past month.
China today is faced with a challenge.You must have heard about the SARS-CoV-2 from a lot of news. I feel very sad for the reports that some countries call China the sick man.
The government carefully examined the population entering the cities, and each city arranged at least one hospital for the treatment and isolation of patients. Most of people experienced the two weeks of isolation life.
Red packet is the symbol tradition of the Spring Festival ,but this year we must prepare enough medical masks instead of red packets . We can't go out to dinner with friends or relatives.The last few days of the holiday, my train back to sichuan was cancelled, so I had another 5 days to work remotely from home.
The government has subsidized us to cancel the ticket refund fee generated by the trip, all voluntary and involuntary.

A friend who worked in the air force hospital in Beijing had his Spring Festival holiday cancelled. From New Year's eve, he helped the local hospital in his hometown of yunnan province and returned to the capital within a few days. I told him that I wanted to help.But he said there is nothing I could do.So I just contributed to the fund.

I have been in sichuan province since last November to help the managers in sichuan province with management.
In mid-february, I successfully returned to Chengdu.
On the bullet train which I rode,I found that only one seat of each row was available for passengers, and this was true in every carriage. I think this measure the government takes by controlling seat sales on vehicles is really effective.
Chengdu becomes very quiet and empty, including the railway station. There are few people in places which were once busy areas . People would stand far from each other when they queue up. On the bus to Qionglai, I was the only one passenger . I remember you said that northern Europe is very beautiful ,I guess China's quietness and empty nowadays may give you a feeling in Northern Europe.
At the entrance of my community ,a group which includes doctors,polices and the property management staffs will make detail records of the people go in and out the community. Residents of my community are given a certification to prove their identity .I also made a very detailed registrations before entering my community, including my ID information ,the train number, telephone number, and the specific location of my home and I was forbidden to go out for 14 days.
The community workers and a doctor arrived at my home the next morning, and they carefully checked my ID card and the information I registered before . During the two weeks , a doctor came to me every few days to take my temperature.
Most days I work from home using the Internet, and in the evening I continue my classes . I have just completed a course in marketing and a course in management economics, and the mathematical functions involved in economics have been difficult for me to learn.
Yesterday was the last day of my two-week-prohibition.
after Handing in the related forms, I went out and saw everyone on the street wearing masks, whether they were taking exercise in the park or shopping for vegetables at the supermarket. I felt very relieved.Many automobile manufacturers in China have arranged production lines for madical masks, and many garment factories have arranged production lines for protective clothing.I believe that with the efforts of so many people, things will go well.
I have seen some news that many Chinese have received unfair treatment abroad because of this outbreak. I am looking forward to your reply and your safety is my first consideration.
Have a nice day!
