Hospitals in Beijing are devoting all their resources to treat the last group of 34 SARS patients, after the city was removed from the list of SARS－infected areas by WHO.
Twenty－seven SARS patients are still in the Ditan Hospital, four in the Sino－Japanese Friendship Hospital and three in the Xuanwu Hospital, said Guo Jiyong, deputy director of the Beijing Municipal Health Bureau.
Ditan Hospital is still divided into two zones respectively for light and serious SARS patients. It has arranged for 100 doctors and nurses to tend them.
Doctors are trying every possible means to save the lives of the six patients in serious condition.
The World Health Organization （WHO） removed Beijing from its list of SARS－infected areas and lifted its travel advisory against the city on June 24. Beijing's last SARS patient was sent to hospital on May 29.
Guo hoped Beijing will built a more scientific epidemic prevention and control system to avoid resurgence of the disease.
