Hubei Health Official Dies After Working 25 Days Non-Stop To Fight The Coronavirus Outbreak
HEALTH OFFICIAL IN HUBEI DIES – According to local Chinese media, a health official from Jingzhou City, Hubei, has died due to a heart failure caused by overwork.
Even with new antiviral drugs approved to fight against the coronavirus outbreak, China is still being hit hard. The government and health authorities struggle against COVID-19.
Health officials are working non-stop just to fight the virus outbreak. Sadly, this had now caused the death of a health official from Jingzhou, Hubei. The health worker was reported to be working for 25 days straight in the frontline against the virus.
However, this seemed to be a common trend in China right now. There have also been reports of people in the front line such as doctors and nurses who had been infected with the virus.
Recently, a heartbreaking video was uploaded on YouTube of a nurse in Wuhan breaking down in front of a hospital after knowing she’s infected with the coronavirus.
“I’ve been following exactly the manual for the case of a virus, but I still have diarrhea. I’ve been helping so many people and I’ve been infected. I should stand in line?”
I coughed six days in a row. Do you want me to tell you again? I’ve been coughing for five or six days. Do you think I don’t know the result of this situation? I’m a nurse, I Know!
However, in the case of the deceased health official, people on Twitter are questioning if this was a cover-up by the government. Some netizens believed that the official’s cause of death was the coronavirus and not overwork.
