On January 25, relevant medical institutions and state-owned pharmaceutical trading enterprises in Wuhan City requested emergency assistance from Shijiazhuang No. 4 Pharmaceutical Co., Ltd. for critical medications such as moxifloxacin hydrochloride sodium chloride injection. Upon learning of this request, Qu Jiguang, Chairman of the Board of Shijiazhuang No. 4 Pharmaceutical Group, immediately stated that the company would spare no expense to provide full support to Wuhan, allocating a portion of its production specifically for priority donation to hospitals treating COVID-19 patients. At this critical moment, saving lives must come first—there is not a moment to lose.
Staff from marketing, R&D, finance, warehousing, and logistics departments worked in close coordination to ensure the smooth outbound shipment of emergency medicines. On the afternoon of January 27, three large container trucks, loaded with 130,000 vials of moxifloxacin hydrochloride sodium chloride injection and other emergency medications destined for Wuhan, as well as donated drugs valued at RMB 2 million, sped toward Wuhan.

Sun Lijie, Director of the Shijiazhuang No. 4 Pharmaceutical Research Institute, who is involved in the emergency technical support effort, stated that the moxifloxacin hydrochloride and sodium chloride injection donated this time is a newly developed broad-spectrum quinolone antibacterial agent, primarily used for emergency clinical treatment in hospital respiratory departments. “This new product can play a critical role at crucial moments, which has profoundly reinforced our sense of purpose as pharmaceutical researchers. We will accelerate the development of more effective antiviral and antibacterial drugs to better safeguard public health.”
