Trending in China: Online Fury Ignited After Woman Miscarried While Forced to Wait Outside Hospital

What’s trending?

An eight-month pregnant woman had a miscarriage Saturday night after not being admitted fast enough to her local hospital in the northwestern city of Xi’an, in lockdown due to the latest Covid-19 outbreak.

The hospital said the woman failed to be admitted because her most recent negative Covid-19 test result had expired four hours earlier. Such tests generally have a validity period of 48 hours in hospitals and other public venues.
