Wuhan has built more than a dozen such hospitals, but they are obviously still not enough. Recently, dormitories of Wuhan universities have been requisitioned. What is a Fangcang Hospital?

The "Fangcang Hospital" is a type of field mobile medical system of the People's Liberation Army. It is built from a number of movable modules and is widely used in various emergency treatments.

Due to its many advantages such as good mobility, rapid deployment, and strong environmental adaptability, the "Fangcang Hospital" has participated in emergency medical rescue missions such as the Wenchuan Earthquake and the Yushu Earthquake in Qinghai Province. In special circumstances, it can function as an emergency hospital.

It is widely used in the US military mobile command system, communications, medical care, logistics support, etc., and is one of the important equipment of the US military mobile force

For the same reason, new temporary hospitals The Fangcang shelter hospital means that during the critical period of fighting the new virus pneumonia, we need such a highly mobile place to treat patients. These places include stadiums, expo centers, schools, convention and exhibition centers, and a series of larger places. It is currently estimated that these facilities can accommodate more than 10,000 additional patients.
