Chapter 227: Cytotoxins
The groom's name is Anthony Christopher, an Eastern European oil tycoon, a super invisible rich man, with a personal net worth of $10 billion and actual assets of more than $30 billion.
And the bride is his fifth wife, supermodel Juliana Morgan, who is only 23 years old this year.
They met at a drinking party, and Anthony immediately began his pursuit, and they got married in a flash for three months.
Today they went to Botswana to repair their wedding photos.
After an hour of shooting in place, continue on the road.
Soon, however, the assistant noticed that something was wrong with Anthony, his forehead was covered in a big cold sweat, and he had been drinking water and touching his throat as if there was something there.
The assistant asked in Russian, "What's wrong with you, boss?
Anthony adhered to the fierce character of the Eastern European, waved his hand, and said weakly: "No...... It's okay. ”
The assistant was still not at ease, so he immediately asked the driver to stop and called the doctor on board to come and test.
Soon the doctor showed a look of surprise, and the temperature gun showed that Anthony Christopher's temperature reached a staggering 41°C.
"Get ice cubes and ......"
"How are you, dear......"
The crowd immediately rushed to cool Anthony down, gave him fever-reducing injections, and fed him antiviral drugs.
originally thought that Anthony's body temperature would drop quickly, but what they didn't expect was that Anthony Christopher's body temperature did not go down, but continued to have a fever.
The bride was so frightened that she kept calling his name.
Due to the lack of testing equipment, the team doctor tried to cool Anthony Christopher and at the same time notified the helicopter to take him to Gaborone, the capital of Botswana, for treatment.
An hour later, Anthony was taken to the Gaborone Municipal Hospital.
However, Gaborone's doctors were still helpless, and could not even find out what caused Anthony's symptoms.
Twelve hours later, Anthony Christopher developed respiratory failure and was put on a ventilator by the hospital.
And Anthony's huge private medical team has already rushed to Botswana with top-notch equipment, but due to the distance, it is still halfway at this time!
Outside the hospital's emergency room, Anthony's staff team, personal doctors, and security team are all like ants on a hot pot.
They live on Anthony, and if an accident happens to Anthony, their good days come to an end.
At this time, everyone hated Juliana Morgan, who was standing at the door of the ward and secretly weeping.
If this woman hadn't had to go to Botswana to take some damn wedding photos, there wouldn't have been such an accident.
"Call me virus experts from several nearby countries...... Immediately!
Anthony's personal assistant, Viak, growled loudly into his phone.
Viak hung up the phone and tugged at the tie around his neck, panicking.
He has to pay the mortgage for the villa, the children have to go to a noble school, and his wife has no job, so they all rely on him to support the family...... In addition, at the end of the year, I plan to buy a sports car, which will cost a lot of money.
Once Anthony has an accident, he will soon lose everything.
"Jingle Bell ......"
Viak's phone kept ringing, all of them to consult his boss.
Over and over again, Victor told the other party that his boss was fine.
Soon, Viak's phone rang again, and it was a call from one of his men.
"Hey, what's going on?"
"We just inquired that there is a very powerful **** expert who is now doing medical assistance in Botswana, but we don't have the ability to ask the other party, and we also need you to communicate with the WHO and the Chinese Embassy in person. ”
"Okay, I got ......"
Viak hung up the phone and immediately used his connections to contact the Chinese Embassy in Botswana, and then contacted Wei Dong, the representative of the medical team.
……
Francistown, Municipal Hospital.
Wei Dong had just finished dinner and was about to go around the neighborhood to eliminate food, when the phone rang in his pocket.
After learning of Viak's intentions, Wei Dong agreed with little hesitation.
They were originally here to help doctors, and it is also the duty of doctors to save people.
After hanging up the phone, Wei Dong called Zhou Wen......
After Zhou Wen left Hangji, he has been doing drug tests for the HIV virus.
After more than half a month of experiments, it is basically certain that the HIV virus is really completely cured.
However, the treatment of HIV requires a special new herb that was discovered by the high priest Carmela in a forest in Guinea.
As for whether it was or not, High Priest Mom did not know.
To be honest, Zhou Wen was very interested in that High Priest Carmela, and he felt that this High Priest was really likely to be like him, and he was also an open person.
He really wanted to meet the High Priest of Carmela.
But High Priest Mom said that the place where High Priest Carmela lived had been destroyed, including the belongings she had left behind, and that she did not know where she was.
When Zhou Wen heard this, it was a pity.
I can only have the opportunity to see it again in the future.
As soon as he arrived at the door of the hotel in the evening, Zhou Wen received a call from Wei Dong.
Naturally, he became a tool man again......
Immediately afterwards, the group set out for Gaborone.
An hour later, Zhou Wen and the others rushed to the Gaborone Municipal Hospital.
At this time, a lot of experts have come.
According to the test results, Anthony was neither infected with bacteria, nor infected with viruses, in fact, more than ten hours have passed, and it is still unclear what happened to Anthony?
Some experts have suggested that Anthony has been infected with some rare toxin.
But the problem is that the toxin was not detected in Anthony's body at all...... It should be said that the Gaborone Hospital's toxin detection system cannot detect poisoning at all, so this speculation cannot be established.
Just as a group of experts were pondering, Zhou Wen arrived.
When Viak saw Zhou Wen, although he was a little surprised by his youth, he was more respectful.
Unlike young doctors in China, who think that they have little qualifications, no experience, and no skills, in the eyes of Europeans and Americans, young doctors who can become experts are very, very powerful.
Everyone knows that doctors in Europe and the United States are high-income people and social elites, but what most people don't know is that it is more than ten times more difficult to become a practicing physician or even a specialist in Europe and the United States than in China.
Because of this, the younger the practitioner, the more skilled it is.
"Hello!"
"Hello Dr. Zhou, thank you for coming, thank you very much. ”
Viak shook Zhou Wen's palm vigorously, and then personally took him to the consultation room.
Zhou Wen picked up Anthony's inspection sheet and looked at it and said, "He's poisoned!"
Viak was surprised: "What, poisoned?"
"Yes!" Zhou Wen nodded, looked at the symptom description on the test sheet and said, "If it is unexpected, it should be a relatively rare cytotoxin." ”
A doctor from South Africa next to him wondered, "How do you know?"
"Toxins can be classified into neurotoxins, cytotoxins, cardiotoxins, hemorrhagic toxins, hemolytic toxins, muscle toxins or necrotoxins according to biological effects, and cytotoxins have several distinct characteristics......"
Zhou Wen gave everyone a science about cytotoxins, "It can cause poison to the nervous system, urinary, liver and kidney systems through skin contact or inhalation."
The occurrence of high fever in a short period of time, which further causes respiratory failure, is one of the major characteristics of cytotoxins. ”
The experts in the consultation room all showed surprised expressions when they heard this, and they were amazed at Zhou Wen's level.
In particular, a few biotoxin experts are even more open.
It's not that they didn't suspect poisoning, but because of their lack of knowledge, they can't come up with more convincing evidence, and Anthony Christopher is in danger, so they can't give them more time to study.
At this time, Zhou Wen's words broke through the sky, which suddenly made them suddenly realize, and at the same time, they were also full of admiration in their hearts.
Just a few glances at the test sheet can tell that it is poisoning, and this level is simply breathtaking.
Vyak couldn't care so much, and asked urgently: "May I ask Dr. Zhou, how should this cytotoxin be treated?"
"If you want to treat a cytotoxin, you first need to know what kind of toxin it is, so that you can prescribe the right medicine. ”
"Yes, but now the question is, what kind of cytotoxin is not detectable in Mr. Anthony's at all?"
"yes......"
The on-site expert said that Viak was like an ant on a hot pot, rubbing his hands and walking back and forth.
"That'...... So what should I do? Is there no way to do it?"
Zhou Wen frowned and thought for a while and said: "There are many biological cytotoxins in nature, and they cause fatal factors in a short period of time...... There should only be the black-headed flycatcher. ”
Viak asked, "Black-headed flycatcher...... What is this thing?"
As soon as Viak finished speaking, a white South African virus expert from the consultation room said: "The black-headed flycatcher is the first bird to be found to have a highly toxic body surface.
Its skin and feathers contain neurotoxic alkaloids of the toad toxin family, similar to poison dart frogs.
This toxin has a very strong toxic effect on the heart, and after poisoning, symptoms such as severe vomiting and arrhythmia can cause death within a few hours. ”
Zhou Wen nodded: "Yes, but the black-headed forest flycatcher is just a general term, in fact, there are a total of 5 species of this bird, and there are also four species such as white-headed, gray-headed, silver-topped, and blue-capped."
Among them, the toxin carried by the bald flycatcher has the characteristics of cytotoxins, which are very toxic and will attack human lymphocytes. ”
The South African virus expert said: "As far as I know, the bald flycatcher lives in the New Guinea islands, how can it be found in Botswana?"
Zhou Wen said: "I just said that the white-headed flycatcher contains this toxin in its body, but there are many ways to poison it. ”
The South African virus expert paused for a moment, and the next moment he understood what Zhou Wen meant.
If it wasn't accidental poisoning, then it was poisoning......
