The hospitals in lockdown Wuhan are said to be crowded and have no beds to accommodate patients. Reluctantly, a hospital worker has to turn a patient away. - Family member of the patient: Help the patient. This is a big hospital. You can’t just turn us away without checking her.
Man in yellow hazmat suit: I want you to go to the next hospital.
Family member of the patient: There is no next hospital. I am here. I need your help. I thank you.
Man in yellow hazmat suit: Help? Call the mayor for help.
Family member of the patient: I will not ask the mayor, I will ask you.
Man in yellow hazmat suit: I have no bed.
Family member of the patient: I don’t need a bed. I need a doctor. Are you a doctor?
Man in yellow hazmat suit: There is no way. Someone has just died, who hasn’t been helped yet.
Man in yellow hazmat suit: There is not even an empty seat in the ER.
Ambulance worker in white hazmat suit: We have just got here from Hospital 161.
Family member of the patient: No seat, I just need a stall. Let us see the doctor. She might just have a heart problem, that’s your hospital’s specialty. Have a doctor check on her. She could just have a heart attack.
(The ambulance worker in white hazmat suit tries to persuade the man in the yellow hazmat suit.)
Man in yellow hazmat suit: It’s not so simple. What if she needs a rescue? You'll rescue her?
Ambulance worker in white hazmat suit: We just came from Hospital 161.
Man in yellow hazmat suit/Family member of the patient: We have already gone to a couple of hospitals.
Family member of the patient: Those are places for rescuing lives.
Man in yellow hazmat suit: Can’t do. Can’t do.
Family member of the patient: You are the doctor, alright?
Man in yellow hazmat suit: Even if I were the doctor, I couldn’t solve this problem. Don’t waste time here.
Man B in white hazmat suit: Call the mayor’s hotline.
Man C in white hazmat suit: None of the hospitals will accept patients. It’s unbearable to the patients.
First-aid Ambulance worker in black outfit tells the ambulance workers: No talk, no talk, no talk, don’t say anything.
