China Builds A Full-Blown Coronavirus Hospital In Just 10 Days

The Chinese city of Wuhan started the construction of a new makeshift hospital at the end of January to treat patients infected with the coronavirus.

The construction started at the site of Wuhan where the coronavirus outbreak was reported to have started.

The speed of construction was incredible — hundreds of workers and machinery made the miracle happen.

As of Saturday (February 8), the hospital has officially opened and is now receiving patients.

A medical worker team received their first batch of patients.

The new hospital was given the name Leishenshan, which means Mount Thunder God Hospital.

It offers a total of 1,600 beds to sick patients.

The staff is doing their best to treat infected patients and are succeeding at it. The number of those recovered has already surpassed the number of deaths several times.

To avoid long lines, many buildings are getting converted to hospitals too, like this exhibition center.
