A mysterious virus-induced epidemic is overwhelming some hospitals in China, prompting people to once again wear masks.
Videos on social media depict medical facilities in China packed to capacity. Even in the late hours of the night, anxious parents continue to bring their sick children for treatment, resulting in long lines at pediatric departments.
There are unverified reports circulating online suggesting that crematoriums are struggling to cope with the situation.
These videos, combined with the lack of official explanations, are reminding some people of the early days of the Covid-19 outbreak.
