We have also been optimizing the work-flow and making the makeshift hospital operate more like a regular one," said Xu, vice-president of The Second Xiangya Hospital of the Central South University and medical director at Hongshan Stadium in Wuchang district, Wuhan, which has been converted into an emergency hospital to treat people infected with the virus.
