Chapter 358: It's not a natural disaster, it's a man-made disaster

Academician Guo's words calmed the two of them, and previous incidents proved that Guo Lao's judgment was correct, in the field of infectious diseases, no one is more experienced than him, and no one is as daring as him to tell the truth.

For a while, the atmosphere was a little dull, and when not a single infected person was found, was it really necessary to initiate an emergency response?

"Ahem, let me say a few words, Guo Lao, we have to produce results in this meeting, and the results must be realistic, and there must be evidence to make judgments. Director Yang forced a smile, looked at Guo Lao's face and said, "Now I personally believe that the virus is contagious, but there must be a case!"

"What you said is also a difficult point for me to consider......," Academician Guo said: "The chain of transmission of the virus is not clear, the virulence is not clear, the symptoms are not clear, and it is possible to cause death? This is all unknown! We are now walking side by side with the virus, and whoever takes a step faster will take the first step! In all the incidents of fighting infectious diseases, we have all walked behind the virus, relying on the strength of the whole country, and making huge sacrifices in exchange for the final victory. This time, we are on the same starting line as the virus, and whoever pulls the hindrances will be the sinners of the nation and the country!

When everyone heard such a statement, their faces became even heavier, no one can afford such a responsibility, disasters are often caused by the spread and loss of control of small problems, and no one can predict what kind of bad consequences will occur once the virus breaks out on a large scale.

"I agree with Guo Lao's opinion, but now, what measures should we take to prevent it?" asked a woman softly.

"The lockdown cannot be blocked for the time being, and the people will have opinions. Academician Guo said: "In my opinion, we should start with the virus and thoroughly study its susceptibility and infection mechanism as soon as possible." The culling of bats must be done decisively, and residents in the vicinity of the bat's infestation should be closely watched, and the fever clinic of the hospital should be screened, and the protection of medical personnel should be raised to the highest level. ”

Dean Sun asked, "What does Academician Guo mean that this virus may be transmitted from the respiratory tract?

In particular, high-risk places such as places where bats are found, residential areas, and nearby hospitals should formulate epidemic prevention measures as soon as possible, sooner rather than later," Academician Guo said: "In view of the previous experience, I personally suggest that temperature measurement points should be set up at stations and airports, and for those with abnormal body temperature, timely detection, timely isolation, and timely treatment!"

Everyone nodded their heads, these measures are all empirical and have been tested by previous crises.

"Guo Lao, I want to say two words. "Someone raised their hand, and it was a middle-aged man, Svenven, wearing a shirt and tie.

"Oh, Professor Xiao, you say!" Academician Guo recognized the professor named Xiao Guangchen, who was an expert in the field of virology.

Xiao Guangchen cleared his throat and said, "Everyone, from the professional point of view of virology, I don't think this virus will necessarily be transmitted to humans. ”

"Professor Xiao, are you questioning Guo Lao?" Director Niu was not happy.

"Let him continue, and don't interrupt yet. Academician Guo waved his hand.

"I don't question what Guo Lao means, I mean, in the process of transmission, the virus may evolve for several years, or even decades, before it can evolve into a virus adapted to the human body...... For example, there are about 4,000 viruses found in more than 200 bats in the world, including more than 500 coronaviruses, but less than 10 have actually infected people. It is unclear whether the current situation is a natural disaster, but it may just be a natural migration of the bat population......"

"This ...... It seems to make sense......"

"The characteristics of the virus are unpredictable, maybe Xiao Guangchen's statement is right......"

Several experts began to waver.

Academician Guo also pinched his chin and was about to refute him, when Lin Feng, who was sitting next to Dean Sun, spoke: "This professor, I think you made a few small mistakes. ”

"What's wrong?" Xiao Guangchen looked at him with interest.

"You know too little about the enemy, and you use your existing knowledge and experience to prove what you don't know, which is a logical error. Lin Feng said: "There is another point, the bat swarm will not appear in the city for no reason, if it is caused by human reasons, then it is not a natural disaster, but a man-made disaster." ”

"This ......" Xiao Guangchen couldn't refute it.

"This is Doctor Lin from Friendship Hospital, what do you suggest?" Academician Guo smiled and looked at Lin Feng.

"Elder Guo, my suggestion is the same as yours, let everyone wear masks as much as possible, strengthen fever testing, and prepare for a tough battle!" Lin Feng stood up and said, "Our enemies are not only bats, viruses, but also the evil hidden behind the scenes!"

"Lin Feng, do you know anything inside?" Jiao Yu's eyes were vicious, and he caught some clues from Lin Feng's words.

"Nope. Lin Feng looked indifferent, and he couldn't tell him!

Guo Lao nodded and asked the others: "Then can we reach a consensus?"

"My opinion is reserved. Xiao Guangchen hugged his arms.

"I support Professor Xiao!" Zhang Li said.

"I also support it, or let's vote!" Jiao Yu said with a smile: "The minority obeys the majority!"

"Is this a matter of voting?" Lin Feng shouted angrily: "Human life is a major matter, it is better to believe it than to believe that it is not, which person to vote!"

"Now that there is no agreement, what do you say?" Jiao Yu sneered: "Who dares to pat his chest and say that he will bear all the consequences?"

"I!" Academician Guo slowly got up. The resolute and serious face and straight figure made Zhang Li and the others speechless.

"And me!" Lin Feng also joined Academician Guo's camp, his eyes calm and firm.

Dean Sun exchanged glances with Chen Guyun and the others, and they all got up and said, "We are willing to bear the consequences with Guo Lao!"

Looking at these fearless faces, Guo Hanqing smiled with satisfaction.

Xiao Guangchen and the others were like defeated roosters, hanging their heads and looking at each other, speechless.

Director Ma and the three of them sat there, their eyes rolling, and the three of them didn't dare to make a decision, but finally Director Yang smiled and said: "In this way, according to Academician Guo's meaning, we will report upward, and the leaders from above will make the decision, what do you say?"

"Yes. Guo Hanqing nodded and added: "The virus isolation work should produce results as soon as possible, study as soon as possible, and strive to get the virus gene sequence map as soon as possible." ”

"Let's go back first, if there is further notice, we will send it to you in time......" Director Yang got up with a smile and shook hands with Guo Hanqing to say goodbye.

An emergency workshop is finally over!

Lin Feng and Dean Sun walked out of the conference room, and as soon as they arrived at the door, they were stopped by Academician Guo.

"Dr. Lin!"

"Old Guo, is there something?" Lin Feng walked over to talk to him.

"There's a little thing I want to ask you......" Academician Guo motioned to the garden outside to talk, and the two left the crowd and came to the outside of the hospital building.

"What do you think of this virus?" said Academician Guo with a smile.

Lin Feng thought for a moment and said in a low voice: "Oh, I feel that the virus is stranger than the previous ones, and it is likely to subvert traditional medicine......"

"Do you feel this way too?" Academician Guo's face straightened, "It seems that my intuition is right, from the analysis of the virus morphology, this structure is unprecedented, I think it can perfectly integrate with human cells! In that case, the consequences will be unimaginable!"

"Guo Lao, I want to try this virus myself. Lin Feng said the thoughts that had been stuffed in his heart.

"What??," Guo Hanqing's eyes were shocked, "No, absolutely not, it's too dangerous!"

Lin Feng Zhengse said: "If we wait until five or six days later, when the virus breaks out in full force and then find a way to control it, many people may die." There is so little work we can do in these five days, and if someone tests the virus and gets first-hand information about the virus, at least we can find some cure......"

"Five days, why five days?" Guo Lao sensed some implicit information in his words.

Lin Feng took a breath and decided to have a showdown with Guo Lao, such an iron-clad doctor and soldier who served the country and the people and had no selfish intentions, there was no need to hide the facts from him.

"It's no secret that this virus incident is related to a person, who is the backbone of the evil demon brake and can drive bats...... From the information I have obtained, seven days is about the incubation period of this virus. ”

"Is there really an accomplice to the virus?" Guo Hanqing was taken aback, in this way, the future direction will be even more terrifying!

"Yes, this person is not a Chinese, it may be a Siamese, after the Demon Temple is exterminated, his revenge will definitely be strengthened again, it is difficult to catch him, to figure out the characteristics of the virus, we can only rely on ourselves. Lin Feng has too much hope for catching Cha Wei and not reporting it.

Guo Lao groaned, and said in a resolute tone: "If you want to test the poison, I will go, you are still young, you can't take this risk! I am old, I can make one last contribution to the country, it is worth it!"

Looking at the old man's pale white hair and firm gaze, Lin Feng stopped and said, "No, Guo Lao, it's better for me to come, my physique is different from ordinary people, I can carry the rabies virus, and most viruses and bacteria are ineffective against me." ”

Guo Hanqing was stunned, looked at him carefully, and suddenly smiled: "Your argument is untenable in science." I'm so experienced in dealing with respiratory diseases, I don't have any regrets even if I die!"

He thought that Lin Feng was deliberately making excuses, how could anyone not be afraid of the virus?

"I'm serious, Guo Lao! If you don't believe me, I'll find you a few witnesses!" Lin Feng took out his mobile phone and was about to call.

Guo Hanqing hurriedly shook his hand, "I believe you, Doctor Lin, but this matter can't be borne by you alone!

Lin Feng shook his head, "Old Guo, if I don't go, no one can solve this problem, what you did for this country back then, let me take over now, believe me!"

The eyes of the two pairs, one old and one young, met with the same unwavering and eagerness.

Guo Hanqing clenched his hand tightly and nodded heavily.
