Leishenshan Hospital (Chinese: 雷神山医院; literally: 'Mount Thunder God Hospital') is an emergency specialty hospital currently under construction in response to the 2019–20 Wuhan coronavirus outbreak. Construction began in the evening of 25 January 2020 and operations are scheduled to start by 6 February.[2][3] The facility is located at No.3 Parking Lot of the Athletes Village in Jiangxia District, Wuhan, Hubei, and is designed to treat people with the 2019 novel coronavirus.[4]
Etymology[edit]
The name "Leishen" (雷神; 'God of Thunder') refers to Leigong, a deity in Chinese folk religion who punishes both earthly mortals guilty of secret crimes and evil spirits who have used their knowledge of Taoism to harm human beings.[5][6]
The name "Lei" (雷; 'Thunder') is also related to the concept of wood (木) in wuxing (五行), wherein wood begets fire (木生火) and fire overcomes metal (火克金). In traditional Chinese medicine, the lung belongs to the metal element (金) which governs the lung (肺). So the name conveys the hope that the respiratory infection caused by 2019-nCoV will eventually be eliminated.[5][6]
History[edit]
At 3:30 p.m. on January 25, 2020, Wuhan municipal government decided to establish another hospital named "Leishenshan Hospital". It is located at No.3 Parking Lot of the Athletes Village in Jiangxia District of Wuhan. On January 27, the National Development and Reform Commission announced the allocation of 300 million yuan to subsidize the construction of Huoshenshan Hospital and Leishenshan Hospital.[7] The same day, the State Grid Corporation of China announced to donate 60.28 million yuan worth of physical materials to the construction of the two hospitals.[8] The hospital is fully covered by 4G and 5G signals.[9]
