The latest surge of COVID-19 cases in China is "a tough fight" for medical staff, but the "hard time will pass," said a key health official.

"The staff got infected. Their families got infected, too," said Jiao Yahui, head of the Bureau of Medical Administration under the National Health Commission. "They were under pressure both physically and mentally." 

However, Jiao has confidence this COVID outbreak will pass soon.
