Street Fighter cosplayer fights coronavirus as real-life physician in China 【Pics & Videos】

Chun-Li and Mai Shiranui are at the frontline looking to K.O. the pandemic.

People around the world are currently taking preventative measures against the Coronavirus, which has spread from the Chinese province of Wuhan to every one of China’s 31 provinces, and now a total of 28 countries and territories.

As countries rush to create a vaccine for the pandemic, one physician in China is making news online, not only for her efforts in the fight against the virus, but also for the fact that she’s a bodybuilding cosplayer with a fondness for some of the fighting game world’s strongest characters.

People in Japan were impressed to learn that Mai Shiranui and Chun-Li were out there fighting to contain the virus on the frontlines, leaving comments like:

“The Coronavirus will no doubt be wiped out now.”
“CAPCOM vs SNK vs Coronavirus.”
“Whoah, those muscles are something else.”
“The future of humanity depends on those muscles!”

With Japan on edge about the health crisis in China, it’s nice to see the two countries coming together over video game cosplay. Here’s hoping the virus will be K.O’d in the near future, especially now that Japan has been officially declared a coronavirus-infected country.
