When the journalists went to the hospital, she was separating from outside. Only the authorized doctors and nurses are allowed to go into the special room.

Tong Zhaohui, the vice president of the hospital said that her doctors already have plan for the multiple organ failure situation. Besides, she won't have any contact with other patient or people. They also used ECMO during the rescue process.

From the research, this sufferer went to a market everyday from 30th June to 9th July. Doctors tested all her family and friends and none of them has symptoms of H7N9.

But why the high temperature has no influence on H7N9?

Professionals announced before that as the temperature becomes higher, the H7N9 situation becomes catabatic. Tong Zhaohui explained that flu usually happened in some cold seasons. Now there's one case in summer, which means we still need to keep doing research about different flu. But the truth is this is not normal. For the next, they will compare DNA with the case happened before to see if any variation exists.
