Doctors, volunteers, and community workers arrived at the nucleic acid test point as soon as possible to help carry out nucleic acid testing.

As the temperature in Haizhu is very high at noon in the middle of summer, Haizhu has set up tents for each nucleic acid test site that are equipped with air conditioners and electric fans to provide a cool and comfortable testing environment.

Community staff workers and volunteers formed special groups for the distribution of living materials, medical services, as well as domestic garbage collection and transportation. In addition, they set up a 24-hour service hotline for residents and established a WeChat group to respond to service needs in a timely manner. They also increased the reserves of living materials with the assistance of e-commerce platforms and supermarkets.
