China will not forget the support of Equatorial Guinea in China's fight against the pandemic at the beginning of the outbreak. The virus is a common enemy of humanity regardless of borders, race or ideology, and the fight against the pandemic requires the solidarity and collaboration of all nations.

At present, the COVID-19 pandemic is still at risk of spreading, posing a considerable threat to people's lives, health and public health security. Equatorial Guinea will learn from China's experience in combating the pandemic and strengthen cooperation with China and the international community in order to achieve an early victory.
