South Africa - Cape Town - 26 May 2020 -  Western Cape Premier, Alan Winde, visited the temporary field hospital at the Cape Town International Convention Centre today. Once complete, the CTICC field hospital will hold around 900 beds, representing roughly the same size as other major hospitals. The exhibition halls have been divided up into different sections, with dry walling. Electricity is supplied to each hospital bed, as is oxygen to many beds. Other parts of the ICC have been converted into toilet and shower areas, as well as other support functions. Photographer: Armand Hough/African News Agency(ANA) (eJC)
