Chinese, German armed forces hold joint medical support drill

The Chinese team brought with it new medical equipment for the drill, including its latest field tent hospital system, armored ambulances and epidemic prevention vehicles. This equipment can be used to set up a second-class hospital on site and demonstrates China's latest developments in field medical technology.

In recent years, the PLA's paramedical forces have actively participated in foreign exchanges and cooperation, including its aid in the fight against the Ebola outbreak in Sierra Leone and Liberia, the "Peace Train-2018" joint humanitarian and medical rescue exercise in Laos and the establishment of free clinics with the Vietnamese army along the countries' borders.
