Wenchuan Quake Survivors: Donating 100 Tons of Vegetables in Return

After the earthquake in 2008, more than 100 injured people in Wenchuan county of Sichuan were sent to Wuhan for free treatment. Thanks to the care of medical workers, the injured quake survivors were all cured, with no mortality, no infection and no after-effects.

After the outbreak of the epidemic, the people in Wenchuan have been greatly concerned about the situation in Wuhan. On February 4, Zhao Yong, CPC branch secretary of Longzhu village, and 11 villagers drove 36 hours and arrived in Wuhan. The six trucks of theirs were fully loaded with 100 tons of fresh vegetables, which were donated by their villagers to nine hospitals in Wuhan and the medical teams coming from other parts of the country to help the city. On the trucks hung banners bearing slogans saying, "Love from Wenchuan, Stay strong Wuhan."

When the villagers went to purchase the vegetables, the growers said generously, "Pick whatever you want, free of charge, just bring them to Wuhan for me." In return for their generosity, the people in Wuhan presented protective equipment to the villagers and disinfected the trucks for their safety.

汶川村民:自发支援武汉100吨蔬菜

2008年汶川地震后,汶川县百余名伤者被送至武汉接受免费救治。在医护人员精心照料下,所有伤者无死亡、无感染、无后遗症。

新冠肺炎疫情发生以来,武汉的情况也牵动着汶川同胞的心。2020年2月4日,汶川县三龙镇龙竹村村支书赵勇带领11位村民,驾驶6辆卡车,经过36小时的长途跋涉到达武汉。卡车上载满了村民自发捐赠给武汉9家医院和外省医疗队驻地的100吨新鲜蔬菜,每一辆运送蔬菜的卡车上,都挂着“汶川感恩您,武汉要雄起”的横幅。

在采购蔬菜时,很多村民慷慨地说:“随便摘、不要钱,帮我带到武汉就行。”而武汉的相关工作人员,也主动为运送蔬菜的12名村民发放防护用具、给车辆消毒,最大程度保障他们的安全。
