Guo Qiang, a deliveryman, knows his family is worried that he’s returned to work during the coronavirus epidemic.

The 29-year-old went back to his hometown in central China’s Henan province for the Lunar New Year, a once-a-year chance that many in China have to visit their families. When news broke about the fast-spreading coronavirus, he volunteered to return to Beijing.

“But how can I say it. It’s for my work, for my life, and I want to contribute to the society to realize a little self-value.” Many migrant workers like Guo had already made the long trek home to see their families, but companies recalled workers, urging them to serve their communities and offering to triple their salaries.
