The community is the front line of the epidemic prevention and control. community workers on the front line follow instructions and fulfill their responsibilities to curb the contagion’s spread. The mission of community workers is urgent and arduous. To prevent the further spread of infection, the Chinese government has imposed a partial or full lockdown in many cities(Khan, Ali, Siddique, & Nabi, 2020)(Khan, Ali, Siddique, & Nabi, 2020)[6]. Community workers have to strictly control the entrance and exit of personnel and vehicle , record all the detailed information, measure human body temperature. Community workers have to be on duty all day and all night and prohibit outsiders to enter residential community. Community workers have to carry out a thorough investigation or dragnet inspection to ensure no one to be forgotten. when suspected cases are found, community workers have to take the most comprehensive, rigorous, compulsive application of traditional public health measures (surveillance, detection, isolation of infected persons and quarantine of exposed) (Khan, Siddique, et al., 2020) (Khan, Siddique, et al., 2020) [5]. Community workers have to focus on disinfection and sterilization of garbag and improvement the sanitation of public areas. It is community workers that reduce the risk of transmission and fulfill their responsibilities to achieve full victory in the battle against the virus through solid and meticulous work.
Community workers are organized to give residents easy access to adequate daily necessities during the lockdown of communities. Since the outbreak began, many cities in China have nearly shut down completely, leaving only the bare minimum of businesses open. In order to reduce the mobility, the policy of “211” (each family may assign one family member to purchase daily supplies every two days) or ”411” (each family may assign one family member to purchase daily supplies every four days) is implemented[7].Therefore, cmmunity workers have to ensure that water, electricity and gas will not be cut off during the epidemic, as well as residents’ access to daily necessities, such as vegetables, grain and meat. Cmmunity workers carry out psychological intervention and psychological counseling to reduce individuals’ psychological concerns.
Community workers deliver urgent intervention to avert a psychological crisis during the novel coronavirus epidemic. Sharing false messages and little understanding of the disease may likely cause panic. Community workers step up publicity work to communicate with the public through various forms such as community bulletin boards, hanging slogans, WeChat public accounts, community setting broadcasts, and so on (McCloskey & Heymann, 2020)(McCloskey & Heymann, 2020)[8]. Community workers propagandize actively to improve prevention and treatment service network and comprehensive prevention and treatment mechanism with national coverage. Public health measures which is took by community workers, such as isolation, quarantine, social distancing and community containment, are playing pivotal roles in the novel coronavirus (2019-nCoV) outbreak. Community workers are responsible for formulating psychological intervention and providing technical guidance and supervision to create a scientific and ‘no rumor’  atmosphere. It is the bravery and sacrifices of community workers and their contributions to the containment of the epidemic that boosted public’s confidence in winning the battle against the contagion.
Patients and suspected cases are being treated in hospitals, while most people are staying at homes to reduce population flow. Medical staff are saving lives, while community workers are providing a variety of services to the residents which is significantly critical to ensure early detection, early reporting, early diagnosis, early isolation, and early treatment of the disease. In China where the outbreak is being brought under control, community work has played a huge role. The sharing of these experiences is expected to help other countries in the outbreak.
