A photo of a courier carrying an infusion bag on his way to deliver parcels has moved Chinese internet users recently.

Instead of lying in hospital, the courier takes his drip out with him to deliver parcels to customers in Jingning county, Lishui city, East China's Zhejiang province.

Some internet users paid tribute to the courier and praised him as a model worker, while some worried that it was rather dangerous and advised others not to insist on working while they are ill.

A netizen speculated that the courier had to deliver parcels, or he might face cancellation of this months' bonus if he asks for leave.

Netizens agreed that it was a reminder to say thanks to the couriers when receiving parcels from their hands.
