The medical team from the Tianjin Medical University General Hospital currently helping Shanghai's anti-epidemic efforts held an online wedding for one of their members, Wu Zhiyou, on April 16.
Wu had placed his wedding on hold to be a part of team providing medical aid to Shanghai.
This is not the first time Wu has postponed his wedding. In 2020, when the COVID-19 outbreak first occurred, the man did the same so that he could aid epidemic prevention and control efforts in Hubei province, which was then the epicenter of the pandemic in China.

Even though his fiancee and parents understood his decision and suggested postponing the wedding again, the couple decided to tie the knot as scheduled, albeit in a virtual manner.
Leaders of the municipal medical team organized a simple online ceremony to celebrate the couple's marriage. The logistics support group also formed the shape of a heart using packets of instant noodles and arranged words of blessing using red dates. The team leaders also made a video call on behalf of the medical team to send blessings to Wu's fiancee and parents.
