Wuhan still in need of personnel, NHC says
There is still a large demand for medical workers in intensive care in Wuhan, Hubei province, since local staff are tired due to working long hours during the novel coronavirus outbreak, the National Health Commission said on Friday.
Guo Yanhong, an official with the commission, told a news conference the commission has sent more than 3,000 doctors and nurses specializing in intensive care to Wuhan, and the country's most renowned medical experts in intensive care are also in the city to guide their work.
A total of more than 11,000 medical workers have been sent to Wuhan to assist epidemic control since the outbreak, she said.
According to the National Health Commission, a total of 22,112 confirmed cases were reported in Hubei province as of Thursday at midnight. Among them, 3,161 cases were reported to have severe symptoms, and 841 were in critical condition.
