China's Foreign Ministry said Wednesday that China is willing to enhance global cooperation in, and make contributions to, COVID-19 prevention and control work as the disease continues to spread worldwide.

China's epidemic control work has achieved positive results thanks to the concerted efforts of the Chinese people, but as the disease spreads it becomes imperative for the international community to work together to win this fight, said spokesperson Geng Shuang.

China will strengthen coordination with the World Health Organization (WHO), Geng noted.

Since the epidemic broke out, China shared the virus's genetic sequence with the WHO in a timely manner and also shared the latest information with relevant countries and regions in an open, transparent and highly responsible manner to safeguard regional and international public health security, Geng elaborated.

China has shared its experience in epidemic control with many countries, he continued.

So far China has released seven versions of the disease diagnosis and treatment plan, and six versions of the prevention and control plan, he said, adding that the plans have been translated into different languages and shared globally. 

To exchange experience in epidemic prevention and control, China has held video meetings with multiple countries and organizations including the European Union, ASEAN, African Union, Caribbean Community, Shanghai Cooperation Organization, South Pacific countries, as well as such countries as Turkmenistan, Azerbaijan, Moldova and Georgia. 

On Tuesday, officials from the Ministry of Foreign Affairs and the National Health Commission as well as Chinese medical experts shared experience and information in a video conference with government officials and medical specialists from the Cook Islands, Fiji, Kiribati, Micronesia, Niue, Papua New Guinea, Samoa, Solomon Islands, Tonga and Vanuatu.

China has sent teams of medical experts to countries and regions in need. As of now, the Chinese Red Cross has sent teams of experts to Iran and Iraq to assist the two countries' epidemic prevention and control work. China is also preparing to send a medical expert team to Italy to support local epidemic prevention and control work, Geng said.

He went on, saying that China will continue to provide the international community with medical supplies. China has donated 20 million U.S. dollars to the WHO and has donated masks, medicines and other medical supplies to the countries in need.

China will also enhance global cooperation in the research of medicines, vaccines and test kits and provide the world with China's wisdom, Geng vowed, adding that with global cooperation, the world will definitely win this fight with a full victory.
