China ready for the Games (I): Venues, facilities in place

Medical team

Injured athletes at the Games don't need to worry about the medical treatment as rescue helicopters will reach them in just four minutes.

With an improved medical transport system that adapts to the characteristics of mountain areas, and strengthened equipments at hospitals around the competition venues, China's snow medical service is fully prepared for the Games.

In order to provide a sufficient medical and emergency care, more than 10 hospitals in Beijing and Hebei province have selected relevant clinical personnel since 2018 to form a medical care team, including experts from well-known departments.

Over the past few seasons, the doctors have received plenty of alpine skiing training and are now able to sprint to any corner of the course carrying medical equipment weighing up to 15 kilograms.
