Liu Shuhua, a doctor from Hangzhou in east China's Zhejiang Province, posted the photo on social networking app WeChat on Saturday, December 31, 2016.
The newborn baby, named Wang Zhengze, was born on December 30, a few weeks earlier than expected. Liu put on an oxygen mask on the baby to prevent him from contracting the wet lung disease, but Wang surprisingly held the oxygen mask with his hands. According to the doctor, it is rare for a newborn baby to hold an oxygen mask independently, and she considered the movement as unconscious.
Most netizens regarded the newborn baby as inspirational, with some saying that people have no excuses to be lazy since a newborn could work so hard.
