习近平指出，广大医务工作者是推动卫生健康事业发展的重要力量。新冠肺炎疫情发生以来，广大医务工作者义无反顾冲上疫情防控第一线，同时间赛跑，与病魔较量。

They have made significant contributions in fighting the epidemic, and demonstrated the noble spirit of giving priority to saving lives with total devotion and ultimate love, Xi added.
他们为抗击疫情作出了重大贡献，彰显了敬佑生命、救死扶伤、甘于奉献、大爱无疆的崇高精神。

Xi called on medical workers to adhere to the people-first approach, uphold medical ethics, strive to excel professionally and make new contributions to advancing the Healthy China initiative and improving people's health and well-being.
习近平强调，广大医务工作者要坚持人民至上、生命至上，崇尚医德、钻研医术、秉持医风、勇担重任，努力促进医学进步，为建设健康中国、增进人民健康福祉作出新贡献。

Xi also urged Party committees and governments at all levels, as well as the entire society, to care for medical workers and foster a sound social environment that respects the medical profession.
各级党委和政府、全社会都要关心爱护医务工作者，推动在全社会广泛形成尊医重卫的良好氛围。
