Wuhan doctors who were critically ill with coronavirus wake up to find that their skin has turned black after virus damaged their liver
- Dr Yi and Dr Hu were left fighting for their lives after catching the virus at work
- Doctors saved them by hooking them to a life-support machine called ECMO
- Change of their skin tone is caused by hormonal imbalances due to liver damage
Two Chinese doctors who were critically ill with COVID-19 have seen their skin turned dark after being brought back from the brink of death.
Dr Yi Fan and Dr Hu Weifeng, both 42, caught the novel coronavirus while treating patients at the Wuhan Central Hospital in January.
Their abnormal skin colour is caused by hormonal imbalances after their livers were damaged by the virus, their doctor told Chinese state media.
