Big countries have a medical responsibility for the world

China Daily  

Chinese doctors perform orthopedic surgery on a patient in Ghana. Providing medical aid to foreign countries is part of China's contribution to the building of a global community of health for all. From helping fight Ebola to helping prevent and control yellow fever, plague, Zika and the COVID-19 pandemic, China has taken a series of concrete and active actions over the past decades to help other countries fight various diseases and improve local medical treatment and public health management, winning it extensive praise from the international community. With the pandemic still ongoing, the North-South development gap continuing to widen, and limited medical resources and fragile public healthcare systems still plaguing some countries and regions, the need for the international community to work hand-in-hand and provide necessary assistance to countries in need can never be overemphasized. The medical aid provided by China to other countries has contributed immensely to global public health security.
