After the incident of Kang Hongqian, lawyer Deng Liqiang, director of Legal Affairs Department of the Chinese Medical Doctor Association, said in a notice that they can do little except appeals in the face of the constantly occurred incidents of hurting medical workers. The government, society and media must make efforts to safeguard the rights and interests of medical workers and improve the doctor-patient relationship. Deng hoped that the criminals be severely punished by law. Otherwise, "It will be another hurt to the doctor-patient relationship," Deng said.
One of Kang's colleagues Han Baojie said that the incident casted a psychological shadow difficult to eliminate. Han has been troubled by it for days and he can only appeal to the society to give doctors a safe and quiet environment and let them concentrate on the treatment of patients. "I really do not know how doctors can protect themselves," Han said.
The murderer who jumped from a building after killing doctor Kang had a fracture and was rushed to a hospital for treatment. He killed a doctor and hit the field of medicine, but was saved by the fellow doctors of the victim out of their duty of saving lives.
