Chinese health experts say the difficulty of treating Corona 19 is higher than SARS.

Senior experts at the National Health and Welfare Commission of China said in a press conference that Corona 19 has a lower mortality rate than SARS, but is more infectious and more difficult for critically ill patients.

Tong Chaohui, deputy director of Chaoyang Hospital, said a month of first-line experience showed that Corona 19 progressed much faster than SARS, and symptoms of shortness of breath were clearer.

The rapid progression is so rapid that if the patient fails to act early, the patient loses his breathing function quickly. The lungs are the most damaged, but the heart, kidneys, intestines and other organs are destroyed.

Another expert explained that the treatment of severely ill patients is not easy because the infected people are old and many organs are damaged, and they need to look closely at the patient's ECG, blood pressure and oxygen levels.
