Chinese authorities are investigating an incident where a surgeon is alleged to have punched a patient during an operation, as shown in a viral video without a specified date. The hospital's parent company, Aier China, has suspended the surgeon, and the hospital's CEO, where the 2019 incident occurred, has been dismissed. The video appears to depict the surgeon, performing eye surgery, punching the patient's head multiple times, with two others present in the operating room.
