　 　This capsule, developed by the Military Academy of Medical Science, has been designed for transference of highly infectious patients over short distances either by manpower or vehicle. Medical staff can administer first aid and medical watch-out outside the capsule as the reduced air pressure prevents the infected air from leaking out. The capsule is made up of a capsule body, a low-pressure system and an air-filtering system. The air within the capsule will be discharged after being filtered.
