Another Doctor in Wuhan dies of coronavirus

Mei Zhongming, deputy director of the ophthalmology department at Wuhan Central Hospital, passed away from the novel coronavirus on Tuesday at the age 57.

Wuhan Central Hospital expressed its deep condolences for Mei’s passing.

Mei was from the same department as doctor Li Wenliang, who raised the early alarm of the coronavirus outbreak and died of COVID-19 on February 7.

Doctor Jiang Xueqing also passed away on March 1, at the age of 55. This means that three in total doctors have died from the coronavirus at Wuhan Central Hospital amid the city’s ongoing fight to contain the epidemic.
