The facility, which can provide up to 2,000 beds, will be similar to the “Fangcang Hospital,” which was rapidly constructed to handle Covid-19 patients at the epicentre – Wuhan, China.Cheung said the Chinese personnel will only be responsible for constructing hardware, and will not include any medical staff. He said China has experience building temporary hospitals with “marvellous speed” and Hong Kong has the country’s “solid backing.”“The country is highly, highly concerned about Hong Kong… It will do its utmost to help Hong Kong to get out of this plight,” he said.On Monday, Hong Kong saw another daily record high of 145 cases, which raised the city’s tally to 2,778 infections. The death toll climbed to 22, as two more coronavirus patients – an 88-year-old male patient and a 95-year-old female patient – passed away.HKFP</blockquote>
