Imagine that: A surgeon sitting thousands of kilometres away from his patient and still being able to operate with incredible precision. Well, that’s exactly what happened in China recently! They have made history by performing the world’s first remote robotic surgery using super-fast 5G technology.

Here’s how it works: surgeons control robotic arms remotely using 5G, which is the fastest internet ever. This breakthrough means that surgeons can help patients from anywhere, even if they are very far away from each other. It’s like having a superhero surgeon who can reach anyone in need, no matter where they are!

This achievement is a big deal because it means that people in remote areas can receive first-class medical care without having to travel long distances. It also shows that China is leading the way in utilising cool new technologies to help people.

So let’s applaud China for its amazing achievement. With 5G and remote-controlled robotic surgery, the future of medicine looks brighter than ever!
