In his first leg of the inspection tour, Li Qiang visited the prefecture people’s hospital in the company of Shohrat Zakir, chairman of the Xinjiang Uygur autonomous region.
The prefecture hospital has been able to treat hundreds of thousands of patients of various ethnic groups and carried out more than 25,000 surgeries, thanks to the expertise of the doctors sent there from Jiangsu.
Li Qiang greeted the patients who are recovering from cardiac surgeries and watched the demonstration of the remote diagnosis and treatment system installed at the expense of the paired assistance program from Jiangsu.
After shaking hands with the doctors from Jiangsu, Li hoped that they will make full use of modern scientific and technological means to carry out varied kinds of medical assistance, and create a replicable model in order to play a greater role in the safeguarding of the local people’s health.
