Hospital gets special air pressure facility

Negative-pressure isolation wards — installed in two days by a Chinese company at a South Korean hospital — are operating to treat patients infected with COVID-19.

Broad Group, based in Changsha, Hunan province, spent 15 days designing, five days transporting and one day adjusting equipment at the hospital. The hospital can be further established into a 20-story building if needed.

Negative pressure facilities are able to recirculate infected air in a contained area rather than allowing it to mix with the normal hospital air.
