“Dear neighbors, who has medicines that can be shared with our elderly people living alone ……” A message in a community WeChat mutual aid group caught the attention of many residents in the Dingxinanli community in the Sanmaifang area of Chaoyang District, Beijing.

“The 84-year-old man who lives alone has tested positive, and her daughter is also in isolation at home due to the new crown infection and cannot go to the old man to take care of him”. The information was released by Li Xiufen, secretary of the Dingxinanli community party committee.

The community party secretary Li Xiufen said, “A daughter from Xicheng sent us a weibo saying, ‘Fubo’ can help, go buy some medicine for my mother and send it over. My mother is 84 (years old), one person living over here, I have also yang, I can not pass.”

She said she was thinking that the fastest way to provide help for the elderly should be the residents in the same community, so she sent out a message of help in the community group.

“My family has cold medicine and antigen.” Not long after, the message of help was answered. Ma Yihua, who is a building away from the elderly, quickly lent a helping hand and delivered the much-needed medicine and supplies to the elderly’s doorstep, solving their urgent needs.

In the face of the old man’s family thanks and WeChat group of residents praise, Ma Yihua said it was just a handful, and she herself is “good neighbors” to help each other beneficiaries.

Community resident Ma Yihua said, “We happen to be neighbors here, we are very close. I can go downstairs and deliver it. I don’t have to wait for the errand boy, wait for the flash delivery.”

“After I tested positive a while ago, the community staff pulled me into a mutual aid group.” Ma Yihua said he ran out of antigen two days ago, and it was also the neighbors in the group who shared it with themselves and said they wouldn’t take any money. “Now I have turned negative, see the information of the elderly for help, and thought to pass on this love then.”

“The baby at home suddenly has a fever, begging for a little fever-reducing medicine” “Which one of you has a fever-reducing patch at home?” “Can you help me buy a thermometer? The age is too old to walk” …… a help message behind, is a person and even a family’s anxious expectations.

“My family has please add my WeChat” “I can even give you half a box” “My family has a new one to send you one” …… Behind the message of “second reply” is the warmth of many “good neighbors” who help each other.

The story of Dingxinanli community is just a microcosm of the community’s mutual help in the “epidemic” of Beijing. Recently, Beijing Xicheng, Haidian, Shunyi and other districts have sent out the initiative of “I ‘medicine’ help you” to the public through the public number of WeChat, which has been responded to by the public, so that the love can continue to pass in the winter.
