A Chinese passenger fainted at Ethiopian airport
Embassy in Ethiopia reminds passengers to pay attention to their health
In the early morning of July 20, Ethiopian Airlines informed the Chinese Embassy in Ethiopia that a Chinese passenger stranded in the transit area of Baoli Airport, the capital of Ethiopia, suddenly fainted. The passenger had abnormalities in his body and was unable to communicate normally. His luggage, ID and other items were lost. After receiving the report, the embassy immediately coordinated with Egypt Airlines to send the passenger to the hospital for treatment. After preliminary diagnosis by the hospital, the passenger suffered from severe malaria and severe symptoms such as internal bleeding and kidney injury. He was immediately transferred to the ICU for emergency treatment. After treatment, the passenger's condition was effectively controlled and he was out of danger of life. At the same time, the Embassy's Overseas Chinese Affairs Office urgently contacted relevant domestic departments to verify the patient's identity information and searched for his domestic family members.
At noon on the 20th, Qu Bo, director of the Embassy's Overseas Chinese Affairs Office, and Luo Huanjin, Consul, and two military doctors from the military medical team to Ethiopia visited the hospital, learned in detail about the condition and treatment situation from the attending doctor, and asked the hospital to do its best to treat it. With the assistance of the embassy, the traveler contacted his family in the country. In the next step, the embassy will continue to pay attention to the patient's condition and provide necessary assistance such as contacting family members and reissue travel documents.
The Chinese Embassy in Ethiopia reminds Chinese citizens to pay attention to their own health before traveling. If you feel unwell or are not recovered from the disease, it is recommended to consult a doctor if it is suitable for long-distance travel.
