A hspital has been frced t ban Pkémn G players frm the site after a mnster hub (妖怪枢纽) was fund in the A&E department. Ryal Stke University Hspital discvered that its casualty unit (急诊室) is n the same spt as a Pkémn G “gym”—where players can train their newly caught Nintend (任天堂) creatures.
University Hspitals f Nrth Midlands NHS Trust agreed last week that patients can play Pkémn G n wards because walking arund is healthy. But the Trust has been frced t pst a warning n its website abut public access t A&E. It said if Pkémn G becmes a majr annyance it wuld ask Nintend—which decides n the lcatins f the virtual gyms using GPS—t have it remved frm the premises (经营场所)．
Kevin Parker, assciate chief nurse, said：“Members f the public wh d nt need t be at Ryal Stke shuld nt attempt t enter A&E r any ther part f the hspital building t play the game. The A&E department is incredibly busy this summer.

I'm als aware f varius reprts in the media f unsafe areas that the game has been played in.”
