Speech at a National Meeting Honoring Heroes of the Fight against the Covid-19 Epidemic September 8, 2020 Comrades and friends, Over the past eight months, our Party has united and led the Chinese people of all ethnic groups in fighting a fierce battle against Covid-19, and we have made it through an extraordinary test of historic significance. Through our enormous efforts, we have achieved major strategic success in fighting the virus and brought about a remarkable feat in humanity’s age-old struggle against disease. Today, we are gathered at this solemn ceremony to award the medal of the Republic and national honorary titles to people who have rendered meritorious service and made outstanding contributions in the fight against Covid-19, to recognize individuals and groups that have played an exemplary role in this fight, and to carry forward the great spirit that we have forged throughout. This will spur us to work tirelessly toward securing a decisive victory in building a moderately prosperous society in all respects and great success for socialism with Chinese characteristics in the new era. On behalf of the Central Committee of the Communist Party of China (CPC), the State Council, and the Central Military Commission, I would like to pay high tribute to the exemplary individuals and groups honored today, and to all those who have contributed greatly to China’s epidemic response, including medical workers, disease control personnel, members of the People’s Liberation Army (PLA), members of the People’s Armed Police Force, scientists and technicians, community workers, public security officers, first responders, journalists, employees of enterprises and public institutions, construction workers, government officials sent to work in communities, volunteers, and the many members of the public who have participated in the response. I express great respect to all Party members and officials working in enterprises, public institutions, and Party and government organizations at all levels. I would like to express sincere gratitude to other political parties, public figures without party affiliation, business federations, people’s organizations, and all sectors of society who have actively participated in the response, as well as to our compatriots in Hong Kong, Macao, and Taiwan, and members of overseas Chinese communities who have provided enthusiastic support and assistance. Throughout our fight against Covid-19, many leaders, governments, political parties, and social organizations of foreign countries and their embassies in China, United Nations agencies, regional organizations and international institutions, foreign invested enterprises, and friends of China from around the world have extended their best wishes to the Chinese people and provided invaluable support to us through various means. On behalf of the Chinese government and the Chinese people, I would like to express our sincere gratitude to them. Even as we meet here today, the virus is still wreaking havoc around the world. The Chinese people are pained by the suffering it has caused the people of other nations, and we mourn those whose lives it has taken. We offer our deepest respect to the people who are racing against the clock to fight the virus and save lives, and our best wishes for early recovery to all those infected who are undergoing treatment. I would like to take a moment to mourn the loss of the heroes who gave their lives to fight the virus, and our fellow countrymen and women whose lives it has taken. Our thoughts are with them.
