Expats volunteer in fight against COVID-19 resurgence

Eva Serrano, a Spaniard living in China's economic hub Shanghai, decided to do her bit by becoming an epidemic prevention volunteer for her community as the city is facing a new round of COVID-19 flare-ups.

"I think China's prevention and control measures are effective, so I chose to volunteer," said Serrano, president of Inditex Greater China.

Located in Jing'an District in central Shanghai, Serrano's community recently launched a one-day free nucleic acid testing campaign covering over 50,000 residents.

Working along with eight of her Chinese colleagues, she was responsible for helping residents sign up for the testing on mobile phones.

"Epidemic prevention and control is the responsibility of the whole society, and I want to make my own contribution to containing the spread of the virus," noted Serrano.

Serrano is just one of the many expats living in Shanghai who gave a helping hand in fighting the latest resurgence.

Amid the new spike in COVID-19 cases, several Chinese cities with infections have adhered to the dynamic zero-COVID approach through a raft of measures, including mass testing and closed-loop management.
