妇女是人类文明的开创者、社会进步的推动者，在各行各业书写着不平凡的成就。我们正在抗击新冠肺炎疫情，广大女性医务人员、疾控人员、科技人员、社区工作者、志愿者等不畏艰险、日夜奋战，坚守在疫情防控第一线，用勤劳和智慧书写着保护生命、拯救生命的壮丽诗篇。我们要为她们点赞。

在中国抗击新冠肺炎疫情最紧要的时刻，来自中国全国各地驰援湖北的4万多名医护人员中，三分之二是女性。有一位来自广东省的小护士还不满20岁。记者问她，你还是一个孩子，还需要别人帮助。她回答说，穿上防护服，我就不是孩子了。这段对话感动了整个中国！正是成千上万这样的中国女性，白衣执甲，逆行而上，以勇气和辛劳诠释了医者仁心，用担当和奉献换来了山河无恙。

Women are creators of human civilization and drivers of social progress, and they have made extraordinary achievements across all fields of endeavor. In the ongoing fight against COVID-19, female medical and epidemic control workers, researchers, community workers and volunteers over the world, braving danger and working around the clock, have fought at the front line of the battle. With their dedication and ingenuity, they have written heroic epics of saving people and protecting lives. They truly deserve our admiration.

In China, at the height of the battle against COVID-19, more than 40,000 health workers from across the country rushed to Hubei province, which was the hardest hit by the virus, and two-thirds of them were women. Among them was a nurse from Guangdong province who had not yet reached the age of 20. Answering a reporter's question of whether she was too young to help others, she said, "The moment I put on the protective suit, I am not a kid anymore." Those words moved the whole nation. In fact, many women medical workers in China, like this girl, and in their tens of thousands, have taken on the virus bravely by putting themselves in harm's way. Their courage and hard work have shown the very best of the medical profession. Their devotion and sacrifice have kept the nation intact through difficult times.
