Doctor continues treating patient as fire rages outside hospital

Dramatic footage has emerged of a doctor continuing to treat a patient in a Chinese hospital while a fire rages outside.

The video, filmed in Binzhou, Shandong Province on Wednesday, shows the brave doctor treating the patient, with flames and smoke billowing outside the ward window.

The doctor reportedly said afterwards that she couldn't stop the life-saving blood transfusion half way through because the patient may not have survived, so she had to carry on.

The blaze was eventually extinguished and no major casualties were reported.
