In 10 days!

That puts our builders to shame and I was one too.

we need to learn from this -we badly need bigger hospitals ..in the UK..

That's wonderful and so is their dedication to the project. I hope they will make it for more than 1000 people, though, they have so many people over there and need more beds.

What are they building it out of? Concrete can't even cure that fast. Is it going to last? I doubt it. Would you want to buy a house that was built in a day or two?

Maybe they've come up with something "concrete" to make it out of..lol..I hope they find something very durable and sturdy. The Chinese are very inventive people.

I've seen it described in several places as a 'field hospital' which could be anything from tents to pre-fab units. Who knows what to believe coming out of there these days?

I saw that too....maybe out of materials they will burn after use...but 1,000 not many
among millions and millions

They are bringing in pre-fab buildings that can be slapped together quickly. The hospital is also on the site of a "holiday village", so they're probably able to utilize those building, too.

Building at that speed, they can add 100 beds a day, it
is the ground work that takes time.

They are using Pre-Fabs Carol, at least that is according to our news,
like porta-cabins, portable offices.

I suppose the hospital will be like a mobile "home" type of construction. I guess rows modular buildings all connected? If this was in the US, we would still be on our second Congressional Investigation as to why the money had been spend, but there wasn't a hospital bed in sight.
