Laboratory workers seem to be a special group, in the hospital work system, they are in contact with patients, family members, nurses, doctors and other groups of people on the front line. Respected but misunderstood, seemingly relaxed but tired, as if decent but with a bad wallet.
Originally, I often encountered misunderstandings and troubles at work, and there were some things that made people unhappy and aggrieved. After doing the anti-epidemic tester, it seems that being wronged and wronged has become more inevitable.
How many grievance moments have been experienced by these anti-epidemic test talents?

The fight against the epidemic tests people's courage
It was never "innate"
It has been three years since the epidemic, and we not only have a firm determination to fight the virus, but also a wealth of experience. It is reasonable to say that we should have sufficient comprehensive and strict protective measures, but the hospital sense still occurs from time to time.
Recently, Loudi City, Hunan Province, reported that Louxing District of Loudi City found 1 confirmed case and 1 asymptomatic infected person in the normalized nucleic acid testing of new crown pneumonia in key populations, both of whom are medical workers.
Both confirmed cases were found abnormal in the daily nucleic acid testing of the new crown virus. The Loudi Central Hospital, where the two positive cases worked, is the only designated hospital for the treatment of confirmed and critical cases of new coronary pneumonia in Loudi City.
As the first frontline battlefield against the new crown virus, whether it is nucleic acid samplers or testers in the laboratory, everyone bears huge risks and pressures.
At the beginning of the epidemic, due to the suddenness of the virus and the shallow understanding of the virus, many medical workers in the process of fighting the epidemic had nosocomial infections. In order to better control the hospital's sense of hospitality, the Health Commission has issued three editions of the "Technical Guidelines for the Prevention and Control of Novel Coronavirus Infection in Medical Institutions", which have made meticulous guidance on the management of medical institutions, the use of personal protective equipment for medical workers, and the testing operation process.
But people are not sages, nor are they robots, who can be blameless, who can be cautious at all times? In the process of work, we will have moments of exhaustion and fatigue, there will be unthinkable bends, and we will inevitably have a few seconds to relax the tight string. Maybe it was just a few seconds of relaxation, and the feeling of hospitality happened quietly and quietly.
Whenever a hospital feeling occurs, there will always be people complaining, complaining that the hospital is not well defended, complaining that medical workers are not careful about work, complaining that they have brought the virus from the hospital to the society, complaining that their work ability is just so...
It's just that no one thinks that when there are no patients, medical staff may take a little rest; they are slightly biased in complying with the norms, improper operation, easy to cause pollution when wearing and taking off protective items; and when the epidemic is severe, the commuting of medical staff inevitably carries the risk of carrying the virus.
Before devoting themselves to anti-epidemic work, every tester is a veteran who has been fighting viruses and bacteria for many years. But for the new crown virus, who doesn't know how powerful it is? Who isn't afraid of being infected? Who isn't afraid of that unknowable aftermath? Their courage is not innate, they are afraid of death, tired and afraid of hard work, but in front of everyone and the small family, they did not choose themselves, between the burden and peace, they chose responsibility.
The sense of hospitality can only be as close to zero as possible, but it cannot achieve absolute zero. From the outbreak of the virus to the full clearance, we have not yet reached the end of this road. We sincerely hope and even desire that every tester and medical worker standing on the front line of the fight against the epidemic can retire safely and healthily!
I was used to seeing the night sky at three o'clock in the morning
I just want to be nicer to us
Tonight at ten o'clock I took over the last wave of colleagues into the laboratory test, from the stationed hotel to the cabin, the journey is about an hour, in order to save time to ensure the smooth progress of the work, the ten o'clock class at eight o'clock has to leave early, but at four o'clock I just came back, there is no way but to make up for sleep on the bus with colleagues.
This is my third support this year, and the frequency of the anti-epidemic work has made me a little numb. Small square cabin, three detection areas, fifteen colleagues to work. At the beginning, everyone could still laugh at each other and beat the spirit, but the time was tight and the task was heavy, and often after ten minutes of work, the whole laboratory was shrouded in silence.
Mental work and tedious repetitive operations must be carried out to make this long silent night even longer. There was only the sound of the rubbing of protective clothing in the room, which was very annoying. The cicadas outside the window are obviously with a little chill, but they still can't withstand the heat dissipation of various equipment in the cabin, the work intensity is large, the layers of masks and masks are protected, and the protective clothing is highly closed, obviously only in April, why is it so hot?
High-intensity work under ultra-negative pressure. In the biosafety cabinet, when the nucleic acid extraction is performed, we pick up the sampling tube again and again, screw the cap, add the sample, and repeat the same action thousands of times in four hours.
Back pain, stiff fingers, tenosynovitis, lumbar muscle strain, cervical spondylosis, these seem to have become the standard for our anti-epidemic testers.

At three o'clock in the morning, after finishing the inspection work at hand, we finally came out of the square cabin. The stars are indeed very beautiful, but who has the kung fu to enjoy it here?
It is strange to say that not only a friend has asked me, three shifts a day, a person left only five or six hours of work, is it really so tired? Or was your work in the hospital so easy that you couldn't take on the burden you have now?
I smiled and didn't want to talk, not knowing if I was tired from work or speechless.
Turning to look at her colleague who was still sampling, she suddenly felt balanced, and she was explaining to the patients over and over again why they couldn't detect the whole family saliva mixture they had brought in advance.
During the re-outbreak of the epidemic, we have seen too many messages from medical workers calling for help, and we have also seen too many treatment of anti-epidemic workers.
I don't understand why they have no land to live in, no food to eat, no one to rely on. Everyone has passed the age of sentient drinking, we do not seek how high the return can be economically, nor do we want to be held high in the palm of our hands, what we have been "asking for" is only the lowest level of basic living security.
If we can't even satisfy these things, we are not afraid of "a knife" to break our hearts? The epidemic is ruthless, we have seen too much in the night sky at three o'clock in the morning, and to this day, we only want to be better for us.
Inability to juggle work and life
Bonuses, complaints, but sleepless
Most of the testers are 25-45 years old, who are not only a fighter against the epidemic, but also the children, partners and parents of others.
The sampling and testing work is relatively busy, and it is day and night upside down, often others are sleeping, they are still sticking to their posts, others are working, they can be taken over.
Three years of fighting the epidemic, how many holidays they stuck to their posts and could not go home. Others are in leisure and entertainment, they are sampling and testing, others are in the joy of heaven, they are still sampling and testing.
In the touching videos, "You don't want to go back to home, I don't want to go home", which anti-epidemic colleague did not watch it with tears? Who doesn't want to lie in the arms of their parents and be a princess every day? Who doesn't want to play games every day with their baby in their arms? In particular, some colleagues' families are sick and diagnosed, and they can only be busy with work, obviously in a hospital but do not even have time to see. That kind of heartache and helplessness is more exhausting than the number of hours of work in a row.
Whenever I see news that does not cooperate with epidemic prevention work, does not isolate at home according to regulations, and maliciously conceals the whereabouts of the virus, in addition to itching my teeth, I don't know what kind of emotions I should have!

Those who missed the time and opportunity of filial piety parents to teach their children can not be repeated, relying on a persistence and love to the present, I thought I was ashamed and full of achievements, but looking at the patient because I did not give him a single sampling tube to complain, do not let him cross the team to test on the complaint, do not give him saliva and snot to complain, and because of these uninhibited complaints were deducted again and again performance, sometimes really want to resign.
After studying medicine for many years and walking on the road of testing for many years, the motivation to stick to it is not only the love of this profession, but also the sense of achievement and satisfaction after helping patients recover. Now fighting the epidemic, there is a lot more sense of responsibility and home and country feelings, although it is only an ordinary test person, but when people lie quietly on the laboratory camp bed in the middle of the night, they will still feel that their ordinary life is a little more great.
Although they are worried, I believe that my parents and children will be proud of me, and my lover will be proud of me. In the future, when people reach their twilight years, they may also feel all their efforts and efforts on the road of the long march against the epidemic. Not to live up to Shaohua, perhaps in every screw cap addition to achieve.
Although there are full of complaints and dissatisfaction, if I am given a chance to choose again, I believe that I will still devote myself to the anti-epidemic work without hesitation.
Even if there are some grievances, they have become a better and stronger motivation to move forward in the work! There is still glory on the other side, the road ahead is long, I believe that with our unremitting efforts, the haze of the epidemic will eventually fade.
