Tsunami-hit hospital to make new start in replaced building

Photo taken on Nov. 25, 2015, shows physician Masaji Saito looking at a clock that used to hang on a wall of the tsunami-hit Shizugawa Public Hospital in Minamisanriku, Miyagi Prefecture, and which is now exhibited at its newly completed replacement, Minamisanriku Hospital. The clock stopped at 3:27 p.m., the time the tsunami struck and engulfed the five-story hospital in the northeastern Japanese town, reaching up to the ceiling of the fourth floor and killing 74 patients and staff members there.
