Today marks International Nurses Day, observed across the world every year on May 12 — the anniversary of the birth of Florence Nightingale — to celebrate the efforts and contributions of nurses in safeguarding public health.

The following posters portray nurses from other parts of China shining on the frontlines of Shanghai's fight against the COVID-19 outbreak. Let's express our thanks to all nurses and show support and care for them on this special day, and all other days!
