(ECNS) -- The first batch of 322 COVID-19 patients were discharged from Shanghai's largest makeshift hospital in the National Exhibition and Convention Center (NECC) on Thursday morning, local authorities said.

The makeshift hospital has admitted more than 40,000 mild and asymptomatic cases since Saturday afternoon, said Chen Erzhen, who is in charge of medical treatment in Shanghai's isolation venues.

Mr. Wang, one of the discharged patients, was a volunteer here. "I'm in charge of sending out food for patients and monitoring their body temperatures. Medical workers here have it really hard so I want to help them," said Wang.

Another patient named Ms. Wang said medical workers here teach them prevention and control measures every day to battle the pandemic. “There is psychological counseling for everyone and we feel good," she said.

These recovered patients will be under seven-day health monitoring in their homes. They are also advised to report their health conditions to local communities if they don't feel well.
