Chen Wei was awarded the national honorary title medal. What contribution has she made to the fight against the epidemic?
Chen Wei, 1966, from Zhejiang. I studied in Zhejiang University as a bachelor, and then got a master's degree in Tsinghua University, so I was specially recruited to join the army. Chen Wei's story is like a legend. She and her team have been fighting the epidemic. When the SARS virus was raging, she developed the SARS virus interferon, which effectively stopped the SARS virus. When the Ebola virus broke out in Africa, she rushed to Africa without hesitation and developed the Ebola virus vaccine. After COVID-19 was discovered this time, she was the first to settle in Wuhan with her team, and paid attention to the research and development of COVID-19 vaccine at the first time. Chen Wei is undoubtedly a great scientist.

First, COVID-19 vaccine was developed. When novel coronavirus broke out in Wuhan, Chen Wei led his team to Wuhan for research. Soon after, novel coronavirus's nucleic acid detection kit was developed, which greatly shortened the detection time in novel coronavirus, accelerated the diagnosis speed and effectively stopped the development of the epidemic. Subsequently, novel coronavirus vaccine was also developed. Although clinical trials are still in progress, it will not be long before it is widely used.

Second, the Ebola vaccine was developed. After the Ebola virus broke out in Africa, Chen Wei took her medical team to the front line in Africa. In just a few months, she and her team developed the Ebola vaccine and conducted clinical trials in Africa. This is also a vaccine developed by our country, and it is of great significance to promote and use it abroad for the first time. Chen Wei always fights in the front line and goes wherever there is danger. This spirit of serving the people deserves high praise.

Thirdly, SARS interferon was developed. When SARS broke out, Chen Wei took her medical team to the front line to collect virus samples regardless of the danger. They stayed in the worst-hit areas for more than 65,438+000 days. After working hard day and night, Chen Wei and her medical team finally developed interferon that can inhibit the SARS virus and effectively control the SARS epidemic. In this epidemic, she was a great hero and saved countless lives.
