coverage of the CPPCC’s endeavors in combatting the epidemic. We conducted a

survey via our mobile platform on topics including how to beat the epidemic while
securing economic and social development, how to improve relevant institutions

and mechanisms, and how to enhance China’s capacity for governance. With 85.6

members from the medical and health sector working on the anti-covid-19 front
