Twenty-two survivors of a deadly hotel collapse in Quanzhou, Fujian province, on March 7 have decided to treat the day as their second birthdays from now on.

They include 24-year-old You Shaofeng, the last survivor pulled from the rubble, who was buried for 69 hours and 33 minutes.

The collapse of the six-story Xinjia Hotel, which was being used as a novel coronavirus quarantine facility, claimed 29 lives and injured 42. Fifty-eight of the 71 people at the hotel when it collapsed were under quarantine.

You, who works as an engineer at a safety inspection company in Quanzhou, was quarantined at the hotel on Feb 25, two days after returning to the east coast city from his hometown, Wenzhou in neighboring Zhejiang province, which was hit hard by the novel coronavirus outbreak.
