A total of 1,362 members of the medical teams from Northeast China's Heilongjiang Province and Southwest China's Chongqing Municipality who aided the fight against novel coronavirus (COVID-19) in Xiaogan City, Central China's Hubei Province, have received special gifts — handmade embroidery souvenirs from the Women's Federation of Xiaogan City.

Each gift is embroidered with the team member's name and the Chinese characters "平安" with the meaning of safety on its front, and the city's name "孝感" on the back.

The city's women's federation and the Women's Federation of Dawu County, in Xiaogan, organized local women embroiderers to make the embroidery gifts to express their deep gratitude to 550 medics from Heilongjiang Province and 812 from Chongqing Municipality who have made all-out efforts in the anti-COVID-19 fight in the city. The embroiderers worked around the clock for days to finish the hand-made gifts before the medical teams left for home.
