Our students had done a wonderful job. Their efforts were highly appraised by provincial and local disease control authorities. They have also learnt how to be a valuable member of society and developed knowledge in the activities.This is a significant issue for students. I hope to see you come up with ambitious ideas and proper plans and take innovation and creative ways. The more people equipped with the knowledge, the better we can control the spread of the disease. So that people infected with AIDS can be treated fairly. I believe that as a result of this event, students will be able to take a broader view of many subjects and gain a fresh and deeper understanding of the subject field. Because of this initiative, some of you may have developed an interest in relevant areas and majors, and you may pursue future jobs in disease resistance-related fields such as medicine, social sciences, and other disciplines.”
Mr. Zhou Weijie, Deputy Director of Wuxi Center for Disease Control and Prevention gave out a speech,he said:”One year ago, the flag awarding ceremony of the first WUIS Wings of Angels Million volunteers team was also held in this venue.Ihave heard the wonderful performance and outstanding achievements of the students in the 4-months period of activity.I hope through the activities of WUIS year after years, the fire of spreading health and opposing discrimination will continue, so that the younger generation will be away from obsession of AIDS and TUBERCULOSIS. Therefore, more people will know the knowledge of correct prevention and treatment of AIDS and tuberculosis, and no longer fear due to ignorance, and no longer running away from health due to fear.”

What we are learning at school aims at solving real problems in the real world.I’d like to speak with all of the students about the following suggestions for getting involved in this project: First and foremost, we must improve our knowledge. Students that are a part of the initiative must learn related information regarding TB and AIDS on their own. I believe you will have the opportunity to learn a lot of medical and social scientific information under the supervision of professionals. Second, improve teamwork. Everyone should fully utilize each student’s creativity, enhance cooperation and communication skills, and recognize that you are a member of the local community and are responsible for it. Third, devote serious effort to disseminate control and prevention knowledge. TI’m hoping that the size of this group can continue to grow.
