SHENZHEN has made scientific arrangements in terms of medical treatment and services to ensure the health and safety of patients amid the COVID-19 pandemic, a health official said at a press conference Thursday.
Lin Hancheng, a senior official from the Shenzhen Municipal Health Commission, said that the city has worked to meet citizens’ normal medical service demands and ensure the treatment of severely and critically ill patients and those in need of emergency treatment.
The city has updated fever clinic information in a timely manner so that citizens can go to their nearest fever clinics for diagnosis and treatment.
It has also optimized the treatment process to reduce the risk of cross infections, according to Lin.
Local hospitals have set up a relatively independent area in their emergency rooms, and a transition ward for patients who are suspected to be infected with COVID-19 but need emergency treatment or hospitalization.
