A 266-member medical delegation from Hangzhou took a charter flight to Wuhan on Feb 9 to help in the local fight against the novel coronavirus pneumonia (NCP). 

This is the third group of medical workers sent by Hangzhou to Wuhan. The delegation was formed within just five hours and consists of volunteer medical staff from hospitals across Hangzhou.

The hospitals include eight city-level hospitals, seven county- and district-level hospitals and four private hospitals.

In order to decrease the risk of being infected, the medical staff all got their hair cut before departure.
