A staff from the National Health Commission says goodbye to the medics from north China's Tianjin Municipality aboard an airplane in Wuhan, central China's Hubei Province, March 17, 2020. The first batch of medics have been scheduled to depart Hubei, once the hard-hit province of the novel coronavirus, on Tuesday, as the epidemic situation has been greatly eased. The 3,675 medical staffers belonging to 41 medical teams from across China have assisted 14 temporary hospitals and seven designated hospitals in Wuhan, the provincial capital and epicenter of the outbreak.
