Sichuan opens doors to injured

CHENGGDU - Lying on a tiny bed in the corridor of the Sichuan Provincial Emergency Center in the provincial capital of Sichuan, a Tibetan named Drolma, 82, prayed alone for the deceased in her quake-battered home county of Yushu in Qinghai province.

The Sichuan Provincial People's Hospital - where the emergency center is located - is one of three hospitals in Sichuan treating quake victims from neighboring Qinghai.

From Thursday evening to early Friday morning, 183 people injured in the quake were transferred to the Sichuan Provincial People's Hospital, the Huaxi Hospital of Sichuan University and the Chengdu Military Area Command General Hospital in Chengdu for treatment.
