Ma Hailong, 33, is a nurse in the anesthesiology department of Anyang Cancer Hospital. For the sake of this beloved city, he ran to the front line of the fight against the epidemic without hesitation, showing the responsibility of the angel in white.
Ma Hailong and his colleagues support nucleic acid testing in Tangyin County.
On January 5, after receiving the task of hospital supporting nucleic acid testing and sampling in Zhengzhou, Ma Hailong registered for the first time, and the next day he rushed to The Erqi District of Zhengzhou City with his colleagues to provide support. At the scene of the "epidemic", he and his colleagues fought continuously to support the three rounds of nucleic acid detection and sampling in Zhengzhou.

"Rest assured, I'm ready." If I hadn't been pregnant, I'd go with you to Tangyin and we'd fight side by side. Wife Song Binbin said.
Nucleic acid testing sometimes requires a home visit.

Before entering the delivery room, his wife Song Binbin also instructed his family to tell Ma Hailong, "Work with peace of mind and pay attention to safety!" "The silent support of his wife again and again made Ma Hailong feel very guilty...
"Mother and child are safe!" Receiving the good news from the captain's phone, Ma Hailong, who was working intensely, smiled reassuringly.
That night, after Ma Hailong finished his work, he made a video call with his wife Song Binbin, and looked at his haggard-faced wife and healthy and lovely son in the video, and excitement, joy and guilt surged into his heart...
"As a husband, I feel guilty that I wasn't there when my wife gave birth. After the birth of the child, I did not hug him for the first time, and I feel sorry. "But as a healthcare worker, I don't regret my choice!" Who doesn't have a wife and children? In this special period, I must stand with my colleagues and fight on the front line! It will all be better, and we will win in Anyang! ”
