Chapter 753: Lockdown
As soon as everyone heard the news announced by Secretary Yang in public, they immediately exploded, and their slightly suspicious expressions finally retreated, and they were already completely convinced at this time.
The new coronavirus, which is a virus that they have never heard of, but both the Virus Institute and Qin Jinmin said that this is a virus that is no less harmful than SARS, which makes them unfamiliar at the same time, and their hearts have become extremely nervous.
Many of you have experienced the SARS period, so you know very well how harmful SARS is, and the damage caused by a new coronavirus that is no less than the SARS virus must be huge.
Moreover, as the economic center of China, the outbreak of the epidemic in the East China Sea will be an unprecedented catastrophe.
Yang Dezhi didn't expect that not long after he sat in the position of secretary of the municipal party committee, such a big change occurred, if this was not solved well, his bench as the secretary of the municipal party committee would be taken out before it was hot.
Thinking of this, Yang Dezhi's forehead was full of cold sweat, and he couldn't even feel the slightest temperature when the air conditioner was on.
"Dean Qin, when did you discover this virus?"
Yang Dezhi looked at Qin Jinmin with a serious face and asked, trying his best to calm down his ups and downs.
"A week ago, but at that time, the hospital only thought it was a new type of pneumonia, and it wasn't until the past two days that we decided that it was actually a virus with symptoms very similar to pneumonia. ”
Then, Qin Jinmin carefully recounted the past week, and the hospital had suspected symptoms one after another, until it completely broke out.
Yang Dezhi's face suddenly became ugly when he heard this, "In other words, the CDC should have known about this strange phenomenon for a long time?"
Don't blame him for being angry, since Qin Jinmin already knew that this was a virus, he must have explained the situation to the CDC as soon as possible, but he didn't hear any news, which shows that the CDC didn't take it as a matter to report the news to him.
It can be said that now that things are so big, the CDC has a lot of responsibility.
"Yes!"
Although he didn't want to nod and admit it, Yang Dezhi asked in person, and Qin Jinmin couldn't help his old friend hide it.
"How can this be reasonable, what does Jiang Tao do to eat, and he doesn't take it seriously when such an accident happens?" Yang Dezhi said angrily.
If Jiang Tao wasn't in the conference room at the moment, he would have had to slap him in the face.
The others were also indignant when they heard this, and they were obviously ready to dump this pot on Jiang Tao, who told this guy that he didn't pay attention to it in advance?
"Maybe he thinks that the results haven't come out yet, so he makes a big fuss, for fear of causing panic among the citizens!"
Qin Jinmin spoke to his friend in a timely manner, and sighed secretly in his heart, Lao Jiang, this is the only thing I can help you.
"I don't know how to report it for fear of causing panic among the citizens? I think he is just conceited and inactive, and he is in this position in vain. ”
In a word, Jiang Tao's fate was directly doomed.
Qin Jinmin sighed when he heard this, although he knew that it would be such a result, but when he heard it with his own ears at this moment, he couldn't help but feel a little embarrassed.
"Let's talk about it, what should we do now?" Yang Dezhi asked, looking at the people at the bottom of the group.
Everyone present looked at each other with a grim face.
The spread of the virus is not like anything else, it cannot be seen or touched, and there is no way to eliminate it except by relying on medical means.
"I think it's better to ask Dean Qin what he said, after all, the virus was discovered by Dean Qin, and he is an expert in medicine. An official looked at Yang Dezhi and said.
Yang Dezhi also felt justified when he heard this, so he set his sights on Qin Jinmin.
"Dean Qin, do you have any good suggestions?"
Qin Jinmin also deserved to hear this, and said: "I think the top priority at present should be to prevent more people from being infected, do a good job of isolating the virus as soon as possible, and isolate all people who are infected with this new coronavirus, even those who have been in contact with it." ”
"Then it's a matter of finding the source of the virus and seeing if we can extract the virus from it and develop a vaccine. ”
Yang Dezhi nodded, "What Dean Qin said is very reasonable, I told the CDC and the Institute of Virology to do it, and the hospital should always cooperate with the CDC's work, and no one must be left behind." ”
Although Yang Dezhi is ready to take out Jiang Tao, the current situation is not suitable for this, and he can only wait for the epidemic to pass.
"Secondly, I have decided to impose a lockdown on the East China Sea, and from now on, no vehicles or people will be allowed to enter or leave the city, so as to prevent the spread of the virus to cities outside the East China Sea and resolutely eradicate the virus within the East China Sea. ”
This idea was still inspired by Yang Dezhi's words from Qin Jinmin's words.
Qin Jinmin's suggestion is only to isolate the spread within a small area, and he wants to cut off the spread in a large area.
It is still unclear where this virus came from, and I don't know if it is the only place in the East China Sea that they have at present, so Yang Dezhi must be prepared to leak a drop of water.
"Lockdown?"
The others were taken aback, obviously by Secretary Yang's bold order.
"Will this cause a shock in the East China Sea and put everyone at risk?" an official asked worriedly.
His concerns were not unfounded.
Because doing so is prone to many urban problems, such as soaring prices, panic among residents, and even vandalism and looting.
Therefore, it is generally not necessary to give such an order unless it is absolutely necessary.
"I can't control so much now, Dean Qin and the news from the Virus Institute have also been heard. ”
"This is no less than a SARS virus, how many people died under the SARS virus, I don't need to say, you know, so this time we must not relax our vigilance, if there is a shortage of manpower, it is a big deal to let people from the Jinling Military Region come over to assist in the management of public security. ”
Hearing Yang Dezhi say this, everyone was noncommittal.
There was silence in the conference room.
Suddenly, Qin Jinmin's mobile phone rang.
Everyone's eyes were drawn to the ringtone of the mobile phone.
"I'm sorry!"
Qin Jinmin was suddenly a little embarrassed, because he was in a hurry, he forgot to set his phone to vibrate.
was about to turn off his mobile phone, but Yang Dezhi said: "Dean Qin, don't worry, I'm afraid it's an emergency call from the hospital, you better answer it!"
Qin Jinmin picked it up when he heard this, but before he heard a few words, his face became very ugly.
He looked at the crowd: "Just now the hospital came with news that someone died because of the new coronavirus. ”
There was a sudden silence in the air, and no one felt a little exaggerated because of Secretary Yang's words just now.
