As hundreds more cases, many of them likely to be false positives, are picked up during aggressive screening, fewer patients can receive adequate support care. This compounds the clinical and ethical burden on medics working 24-hour shifts, working alongside colleagues who then become patients and living in hospitals because they are unwilling to risk infecting their families by going home.

The risk of hospitals themselves becoming sites of infection is considerable: https://foreignpolicy.com/2020/01/26/2019-ncov-china-epidemic-pandemic-the-wuhan-coronavirus-a-tentative-clinical-profile/

Tragic to think that places of healing could be sites of the worst spread of the virus. I feel for medical personnel. Let's hope the current data proves overstated.
