Following implementation of COVID-19 epidemic prevention and control measures in Ruili City, Southwest China's Yunnan Province, the Ruili Women's Federation responded quickly and mobilized the women's organizations at all levels in the city to join the anti-epidemic team, encouraging women Party members, cadres, and volunteers to fight on the front line of the battle against the epidemic.
As one of the organizations responsible for the digital management of a matrix of urban communities amid epidemic prevention and control, the city's women's federation rose to action quickly. It held an urgent meeting to assign tasks, clarify duties and determine the area's concentrated nucleic acid test sites.
The staff members visited the households door to door in the communities under the federation's jurisdiction, helped register the information of test takers in advance and made preparations for the nucleic acid tests the next day. They also helped residents download an app to order takeout food, join WeChat groups, register health codes, and relieve their anxiety during the visits.

The test takers gave thumbs up to express their gratitude to the medical workers and workers of the city's women's federation. "The test was very quick, and the staff guided us in an orderly manner, which made us feel relieved," one said.
Through hard work, 822 people have been tested at the nucleic acid test station where the city's women's federation was in charge.
The women's federation established two WeChat groups, which cover 200 households and 167 stores. The new "household group" and "store group" facilitate communication and mobilization in the fight against the epidemic.
Wang Ting, President of the Ruili Women's Federation, said that the staff members will continue to stick to their frontline posts. "We are full of expectations for this autumn, meanwhile we are confident of winning the battle against the epidemic and safeguarding the happiness and well-being of the people."
