Wuhan Hospitals Gradually Resuming Medical Services Not Related to Outbreak

2020-04-01    Author: Yang Wanli and Liu Kun

Hospitals in Wuhan, the hardest-hit city in the novel coronavirus outbreak in Central China's Hubei Province, have gradually resumed medical service as the epidemic disease is under control, according to an official from the National Health Commission.

A total of 62 hospitals in Wuhan have reopened, covering 40 percent of the city's top- and second-level public hospitals, said Jiao Yahui from the commission's Medical Administration and Supervision Department.

Of them, 60 hospitals have resumed outpatient services while 53 hospitals offer emergency service to the public, Jiao revealed at a news conference on Tuesday.

Since the outbreak of the disease, the Central Guidance Team in Hubei has paid great attention to the medical needs of other patients in the province, Jiao said.

"Even during the peak time of the plague, we still made efforts to maintain service to those with urgent needs, such as pregnant women and patients with the requirement of hemodialysis," she said.

As of Monday, Wuhan witnessed a daily medical treatment record of about 25,000 cases in both outpatient and emergency departments.

Furthermore, nearly half of the city's hospital beds are available and Wuhan has 14,300 hospitalized patients.

"Six hospitals have all of their hospital beds reopened. Of them, most are those for maternal and children's care," Jiao said.

In Wuhan Tongji Hospital, about 120 patients are taking hemodialysis every day, according to Jiao. She said the number even surpassed that in the same period last year.

Moreover, 75 cities and towns in Hubei have resumed medical services. Jiao said the health department will give further guidance to increase the number of hospital beds and expand outpatient services available in the province.
