North Korea's leader Kim Jong-un has criticised health officials and ordered the army to help distribute medicine, as a wave of Covid cases sweeps through the country.
More than a million people have now been sickened by what Pyongyang is calling a "fever", state media said.
Some 50 people have died, but it's unclear how many of those suspected cases tested positive for Covid.
North Korea has only limited testing capacity, so few cases are confirmed.
