In China, the number of infections has increased rapidly after the relaxation of measures to prevent the spread of the new coronavirus.
As doctors and nurses continue to be infected, the medical system is under strain, and there is growing concern that the situation will become even more serious.
In China, on the 7th of this month, after the government relaxed the infection control measures for the new coronavirus, the infection has spread rapidly in various places.
Chinese health officials said two infected people died in Beijing on the 18th, followed by five deaths on the 19th, but the Hong Kong media said that the number of people who died after infection was increasing rapidly. I'm telling you.
Under these circumstances, while a large number of people are flocking to fever outpatient clinics in various places, doctors and nurses are also being infected one after another.

In addition, hospitals in Jilin and Hebei provinces also said, "While the need for medical care is increasing, the number of infections among medical workers continues to increase, and the shortage of personnel is becoming a serious problem."
The Chinese government is trying to fill the shortage by rehiring health care workers who retired within the last five years, but fears are growing that the health care system will be overwhelmed amid the rapid spread of the infection. I'm here.
