Hospital Begins Renovation
By LUCAS VOORHIES


Ng General Hospital has officially begun construction on revamping and modernising its infectious pathogen unit. The plan includes enlarging and upgrading vaccine production facilities, creating a separate triage area for potentially contagious patients, and adding a 200-bed quarantine zone. The PCL78-million renovation, which is funded by Council-provided money, is expected to be completed by August.

"This is a great day for the city," said hospital spokesman Georgi Stanislav. "As medical science has advanced, we've become too passive about the possibility of new and emergent illnesses, and let down our guard. This improved unit will help to identify and contain a surprise epidemic before it can spread too far."

Critics of the plan, such as Carrie Lopez of Citizens for Fiscal Frugality, believe the construction is a waste of money. "Modern science has given us a number of tools for quickly suppressing and eliminating a wide range of bacterial and viral infections. ... This ridiculous construction is just a way for the hospital to build public relations and for the medical industries to line their coffers a little more."

City Council member Nathan Earlywine defended the disbursement. "After last year, I don't think anyone can take our city's health for granted," he said. "Complacency in the face of danger is just not the spirit of our great city."

The hospital's improvements were planned by the board after a surprise virus swept the city in early 267, leaving hospital facilities overwhelmed. During that epidemic, over 8,000 individuals became sick, and at least 20 died. It was the first time in nearly 20 years that an infectious pathogen caught city health authorities unprepared. "We want to be in a position to avoid that kind of nasty shock," said Stanislav. "We have the tools to prevent this kind of crisis, and there is absolutely no reason we should not bring them to bear."

 		LOL, I didn't notice that, but this deserves to be here as we are keeping each update separate for ease of use later on.
