Banh Ngan Hoa, 29, who postponed his marriage due to the Covid-19 epidemic, died last night in Wuhan after being infected with nCoV.

Peng Yinhua, a respiratory specialist at the No. 1 People's Hospital of Jiangxia District, Wuhan City, Hubei Province, died at 2150 pm last night, after being infected with nCoV during the treatment of the patient.

Dr. Peng was transferred to a local hospital for treatment from January 25, but the condition became more serious. On January 30, he was taken to Jin Yin Dam Hospital in Wuhan for emergency treatment and died here.

The Jiangxia County Health Committee sent deepest condolences to Dr. Peng's family. The district government has praised him as a shining example at the front of the epidemic, including an article about his postponement of the wedding scheduled to take place on February 1 to focus on anti-nCoV.

On China's Weibo social network, news of Dr. Peng's death spread quickly with more than 190 million views. Everyone expressed their grief and grief at his departure.

"The bride will never see her fiance again," one account commented. "He should have a better future and life. I really don't want to see a doctor die," another user said.

The China Centers for Disease Control and Prevention says 3,003 medical doctors have been recorded or suspected of being infected with nCoV as of Feb. 11, of which 14 health workers have died. One of these is Dr. Luu Tri Minh, director of the Wuchang Hospital in Wuhan, who died on February 18 at the age of 51 after many days of critical illness.

Wangping, deputy director of Wuhan Central Hospital, is also in serious danger after being infected with nCoV. Earlier, ophthalmologist Ly Van Luong, one of the first people to warn about nCoV, died on February 6 of being infected with the virus.

Dr. Li's death angered the public and claimed that the government owed him an apology. Doctor Li's family was paid 820,000 yuan (about 117,000 USD).

The Hubei provincial government said the children of the frontline medical staff fighting the Covid-19 epidemic would receive a 10-point priority when they enter high school. The Wuhan government also announced that each physician who is infected with the virus will receive a support of 3,000 yuan ($ 430), while the family of medical personnel who have died will receive 5,000 yuan (more than $ 700).
