African student joins China’s battle against novel coronavirus


“I solemnly make a request to the hospital to join the emergency response team.”

On January 29 this year, Zhou Guojin, vice president of People’s Hospital of Jinxian County in east China’s Jiangxi Province, received a special application letter from Leidenham, a Beninese student.

At present, Leidenham is pursuing his master’s degree at Soochow University. He once served as an intern in the Orthopedics Department of People’s Hospital of Jinxian County for three months since January last year.

There, he had a deep friendship with the medical staff. This year, he came back to Jinxian County, which he has already regarded as his second hometown, to celebrate the Spring Festival during the winter holiday. Hearing the outbreak of the novel coronavirus, he volunteered to join the local medical team to fight against the epidemics.

“What I want to do is to do Chinese people a favor. Wuhan, I am there for you!” Leidenham said.

据介绍,目前在苏州大学读研的莱东翰2019年1月曾在进贤县人民医院骨科进行过三个月的实习,与医院医护人员结下了深厚的友谊。今年一放寒假,他就来到进贤的“家”中过春节。面对疫情,他选择留了下来。

“我就是想留下来帮忙,为中国人民服务,武汉加油!中国加油!”莱东翰说。
