WUHAN - Hundreds of workers are toiling around the clock at the site of a field hospital that China is racing to build within days to treat a rapidly growing number of patients stricken by a deadly virus.
Work to build Fire God Mountain started Friday and is due to be ready to receive patients on 3 February, according to state media. The second one, named Thunder God Mountain, will be ready for use on 5 February. The construction workers all wore masks as mandated by the authorities for the entire population of the city, which has been under lockdown since Thursday.They worked around a forest of excavators and trucks bringing in prefab material at the site on the southwestern side of the city.
The 25,000-square-metre hospital will have between 700 and 1,000 beds to treat patients of a pneumonia-like virus that has killed 81 people - mostly in Wuhan - and infected more than 2,700 across the country."We've mobilised all the workers left in Wuhan to work in shifts to ensure round-the-clock construction," Zhang Chongxi, general manager of the road and bridge company of Wuhan Construction, was quoted as saying by the official Xinhua news agency.
