Fox News
Pfizer's Paxlovid drug, which has been found effective in treating COVID-19, is in short supply in China. Chinese authorities acknowledged that the drug is in short supply.
The first hospital they visited conducted a CT scan that showed his lungs were infected, but turned them away, saying no beds were available, said Li, who only gave his surname due to sensitivity over how authorities might view his account.
After two more days of frantic calls to families and friends, a contact finally found them a space at another hospital, but it took a further antigen test and second CT scan before it agreed to prescribe the drug.
With his father admitted to an intensive care unit, Li was worried that it had taken too long to get effective treatment.
