Hundreds of hospital staffers have been infected with the coronavirus in Wuhan, the Chinese epicenter of the outbreak, according to a new report.

There were at least 500 confirmed cases of infected Wuhan hospital workers by mid-January — with hundreds more suspected to have the virus, sources told the South China Morning Post.

The cases reportedly include at least 100 staffers from both Wuhan Xiehe Hospital and Renmin Hospital of Wuhan University, as well as an additional 50 cases at Wuhan Number 1 Hospital and Zhongnan Hospital.

Another 600 workers were suspected to have the coronavirus at Wuhan-area hospitals, the outlet said.

The information reportedly comes from a PowerPoint slide circulating among hospital workers about the staff cases.

One doctor from a major Wuhan hospital confirmed its authenticity, the South China Morning Post reported.

Medical personnel have complained about the lack of protective gear as they treat patients with the ailment.

“That is why we have been crying out for more donations of medical supplies, especially hazmat suits,” a doctor, who declined to be identified, told the Hong Kong-based outlet. “We have seen too many colleagues falling ill because of insufficient protection.”

The virus — which has symptoms including fever, coughing and shortness of breath — has claimed the lives of more than 1,000 people in China and sickened more than 42,000 others.

Health officials on Tuesday dubbed the virus COVID-19.
