Coronavirus hospital timelapse: China completes build in eight days

China has finished constructing one of two new hospitals in Wuhan dedicated to treating coronavirus patients, state media confirmed. Construction work started on the Huoshenshan hospital on 23 January and finished eight days later, a day short of breaking their own record time set in 2003. Timelapse video shows the scale and speed of construction, which appeared to continue through a number of nights. The new hospital has 1,000 beds and is expected to begin admitting patients from Monday
