The team consists of one doctor-in-charge of the Critical Care Medicine and five nurses, which was the third one sent by the First People\u2019s Hospital in Yichang, Hubei Province, China Economic Net (CEN) reported.<\/p>\n

They will rotate the teammates who were sent here early and improve the samples collecting and testing capacity for nucleic acid tests at the construction site.<\/p>\n
The nine-member team had to conduct COVID-19 nucleic acid tests for about 4,000 workers every two weeks.<\/p>\n
We once collected samples and gave nucleic acid tests up to over 900 cases at most one day in March 2021, said Yu Lianghuan, the nursing supervisor of the First People\u2019s Hospital in Yichang, who had served at the Karot\u2019s site for a year.<\/p>\n

These medical workers have played an important role in the fight against the novel coronavirus pandemic since May 2020, ensuring the smooth progress of Karot project.<\/p>\n
They have been praised by Pakistan\u2019s Ambassador to China Moin ul Haque, CTG, and China and Pakistan\u2019s departments in charge of construction.<\/p>\n
Karot hydropower project, invested by CTG, is one of the priority projects of CPEC. With a total investment of 1.74 billion U.S. dollars, it will solve the power supply bottleneck in Pakistan and provide sustainable and stable energy support.<\/p>\n
