"There is currently a confirmed case that needs to be transferred to a designated hospital for treatment..." Immediate action after receiving the order is Cao Le's daily work. After putting on the secondary protective clothing, putting on goggles, masks, gloves, and checking again whether the "armed is in place", Cao Le immediately drove the negative pressure ambulance. Sharing a confined space with a confirmed patient and retrograde upwards in the face of danger... The slogan in front of the Harbin Emergency Center building, "In a hurry in the seconds, save on the edge of life and death", is a portrayal of the work of "first responders".

"The safety of ambulances is the first barrier to medical protection. Only when ambulances are thoroughly disinfected can the safety of patients and first responders be guaranteed. He Fang, a staff member of the infection department, said that after each emergency vehicle completes its task, it must be cleaned and disinfected by the emergency center washing and disinfection personnel. In close contact with the "first responder" on the transfer vehicle, there are not only confirmed cases who go to the hospital for treatment, but also cured patients who are discharged from the hospital. "Although we didn't cure it, it was really gratifying to see the patients I sent be cured." Cao Le said.
