Workers of the community eat their dinner of instant noodles at the office. YUAN ZHENG/FOR CHINA DAILY
In Xiqiao, all community workers have remained at their posts despite the risks to their personal safety. They move from door to door, check people's health and arrange doctors' visits for those who are infected. They also deliver daily necessities for the elderly and needy families in their community. The workers are so busy that many of them only have time for a meal of instant noodles most days. A 24-hour hotline is also available to provide advice.
