Chinese Cop On Virus Patrol Sees New Daughter On Phone

This tear-jerking footage shows a policeman on the front line of tackling the Wuhan coronavirus outbreak seeing his newborn daughter for the first time during a video call with his wife.

Body-worn camera footage belonging to traffic officer Zhang Lin, 30, shows him stationed at a traffic checkpoint in Shuangliu District in Chengdu, capital of south-western China’s Sichuan Province.

He and his colleagues are monitoring and regulating traffic coming in and out of the city of 14 million people while trying to help contain the infectious disease currently sweeping across the country.
