Surgeon Caught Asleep On The Floor After Epic 28-Hour Shift, And Now His Photos Are Going Viral
Being a doctor is not only a hard job but an exhausting one too. Surgeon Luo Heng performed 5 operations over a total of 28 hours. He did two emergency surgery’s overnight and then 3 more the following morning. After his extremely long shift, Heng was captured sleeping on the hospital floor and looking comfy as ever. The pic was posted on a Chinese social media site called Weibo and ever since people have been praising him for his dedication to work.
It’s not the first time we see pics of doctors sleeping at work but we must say, after 28 hours of work, Doctor Heng sure deserved a nice nap!

He doesn't deserve a nap on a floor. He deserves a hot shower, a good feed and a good log sleep in a safe and comfortable home.

Dedication, sure sure, but the most alarming thing is, that he had to work 28 hours. That's horrible, who would like to be the last patient of surgeon who didn't sleep last 24 hours?

While I do fully respect his dedication, this seems like a malpractice suit waiting to happen. I have no idea what the differences are between American and Chineses laws in this regard, but 28 hours without sleep is the same everywhere. And I have serious doubts that he's not slightly impaired, if not greatly so, operating with that kind of sleep deprivation. Give me even 20 hours without sleep and my brain turns foggy. After 28, I'd pretty much just be on co-pilot.

I though the same. As I can admire his devotion and dedication, I wouldn't want him to do my surgery. 28 hours of doing something that requires your upmost concentration is devastating... And people who introduced laws permitting that should be sued.
