CHINA-XI'AN-BABY HATCH (CN)

(140303) -- XI'AN, March 3, 2014 () -- An abandoned infant is cared at Xi'an Children's Welfare Institution in Xi'an, capital of northwest China's Shaanxi Province, March 3, 2014. Just three months after the first baby hatch was established in the capital city on Nov. 29, 2013, over 80 abandoned infants had been collected from the safe place, and most of them have illnesses or disabilities. A baby hatch allows a parent to safely and anonymously abandon an infant and consists of an incubator and a baby bed. Welfare staff will retrieve the baby soon after they call the police and sent them to hospitals for treatment. (/Li Yibo) (hdt)
