On April 15, the World Health Organization (WHO) will ...... the Lion City, Bay Bay and Guangdong Province, S Province and Hong Kong City in China in the area where the epidemic began to break out.

On April 16, the World Health Organization officially declared the causative agent of SARS as a new coronavirus and named it SARS virus.

In early April, Cao, a retired professor of finance at the Central University of Finance and Economics, was infected at the People's Hospital Affiliated to Beijing University. After seeing a doctor at the People's Hospital Affiliated to Beijing University, Professor Cao went to the Third Affiliated Hospital of Beijing University for treatment, but due to a lack of understanding of SARS, he was misdiagnosed as a patient with ordinary high fever, which caused some medical staff in the hospital to be infected. He died 10 hours later due to ineffective resuscitation. Professor Cao's symptoms are very similar to SARS. After the Third Hospital of Beijing Medical University asked the relevant departments of Beijing City for instructions, the patient was not finally diagnosed with SARS. The death certificate reads: respiratory failure, pneumonia. Subsequently, after the late professor's wife was hospitalized, six of his sons, daughters-in-law, grandsons, daughters, sons-in-law, and grandsons were hospitalized with fevers; six employees of the Zhongcai Logistics Group, where Professor Cao's son worked, fell ill one after another; and more than a dozen residents of the Zhongcai West Tower, where the Cao family lived, were recruited one after another. As of April 28, there were only 19 confirmed and suspected cases among Zhongcai faculty and staff, including Professor Cao, and two of them died. In addition, a group of related family members, including Professor Cao's wife, were sick, and an elevator worker in the community was not spared.

At 11:30 p.m. on April 17, Sun, a male student from the School of Computer Science of Northern Jiaotong University who lived on the 15th floor of Block B of Jiayuan of Jiaotong University, was sent to the school hospital for examination because of a high fever. Sun, a student in the class of 2002, caught a cold during military training on April 1 and went to the hospital for treatment many times after that. Due to the four major symptoms of SARS, Sun was sent to Beijing People's Hospital overnight, and after being diagnosed, he was quickly transferred to Beijing Hot Spring Chest Hospital, which specializes in treating SARS patients. It was just over 2 a.m. on April 18. On April 18, students in the same dormitory and the dormitory next door to Sun began to have a collective fever. By April 19, the disease began to spread, and a dormitory on the 12th floor of the building developed fever symptoms. This is a student of the School of Electronics, and he has no close contact with Sun. Wang Xiangping, director of the news center of Beijing Jiaotong University, said: We later analyzed that it may be elevator cross-infection. Because everyone shares an elevator. According to the statistics of the SARS Prevention Office of Northern Jiaotong University, from April 16 to 19, a total of 31 people had fever symptoms in the school, of which 13 were sent out of the hospital for treatment, 18 were treated and observed in the school hospital, and 85 were under key monitoring and observation. On April 20, a large number of patients with low-grade fever appeared in Northern Jiaotong University, and the number of suspected cases increased sharply. A young teacher from the computing center was diagnosed and sent to Xiyuan Hospital.

On April 19, the government held another press conference to announce that the outbreak in Beijing had suddenly increased from 37 cases to 339 cases. A few hours after the press conference, the central government announced the dismissal of Meng Mou, the mayor of Beijing, and Zhang, the minister of health, from their posts......

On April 20, the Ministry of Health announced the implementation of the "one report per day system". The number of confirmed cases of SARS announced by Beijing increased to 339 from 37 the previous day. The number of new cases in Beijing exceeded 100, and the number of suspected cases rose to more than 600. At the same time, it was announced that the May Day "Golden Week", which was originally scheduled to start on May 1, would be suspended once to ensure that the epidemic would not spread further. A number of colleges and universities in Beijing have announced the suspension of classes......

Zhao Hong often watched TV news reports, and was speechless for a while, good things don't go out, bad things spread thousands of miles! His little butterfly has not changed history, but I heard that the protective equipment in Guangdong Province was out of stock earlier, and the price was slightly more than the original, but at least there is really no shortage within Zhao Song Group Company! Even in response to the government's call, in addition to enough for their own use, the rest have taken the initiative to donate! (In fact, even if you don't donate, there are many people who can't get it, because as long as it is not shipped out of the manufacturer, it has been requisitioned.) ）

Except for the production enterprises in remote areas, the Zhao Song Group has hardly been affected, and there are only a few projects in key epidemic areas, and most of the employees have gone home on vacation. Moreover, the parts that are still in operation have strictly implemented the protective measures of SARS in accordance with the requirements of the group company, and there has been no epidemic detection yet!

Zhao Hong and his wife are also a little relaxed!

"Hey, what are you doing? Don't show your affection here! Zhao Hong, your brother has a phone call for you!"

When Zhao Hong was playing with the two youngest children, Xiao Wanting came to him with his mobile phone.

"It's your brother!" she whispered.

"What's the matter, brother?"

Zhao Hong asked with some eagerness. After all, it has been so many years, and it is the first time I have received a call from my brother on his mobile phone, after all, my brother's superior is the general manager of the domestic branch, or the chairman. Even Guo Yi only retains the position of chairman now, and the general manager is already an external professional manager!

"Second son, don't worry! It's not a big deal, it's just that I just came back to Haishi, and I'm stuck here at the train station! They say that I'm coming back from the epidemic area, and I'm a foreigner, so I must be quarantined for 20 days and observe! I must have a local to prove that I have my own house before I can leave! It's inconvenient for others to find you!"

"Hey, where did you come back? Why did you come back from the epidemic area? Wait for me to find someone to bring you back!"

"Didn't I go back to my hometown S Province by the way to attend a reunion of college classmates! Hurry up! Don't I'm not sick, it's troublesome to stay here and get infected again......!"

Listening to his brother's still normal tone, Zhao Hong was relieved, and hung up the phone after chatting casually. Ready to crawl to find that local friend to pick him up.

"I'll be back in a short drive!"

Xiao Wanting on the side immediately volunteered when she heard this.

"But you're not a local, can you go?"

Zhao Hong asked with some confusion.

"I'm going to look for my cousin, you haven't seen him in a long time!

"Is that the cousin who is a college teacher? indeed, then you can bring them all to the house!

Zhao Hong said with a smile when he heard this, thinking about the guy who had investigated himself privately.

"People are no longer university teachers! It's up to him to tell you the details!"

After Xiao Wanting finished speaking, she went in a hurry, and came back with people in less than two hours, and went straight to the third-floor terrace of Zhao Hong's house.

"Brother, are you okay?"

"Hello, big brother! It's been a long time! Sit down and drink tea!"

Zhao Hong greeted the two brothers warmly.

"What can I do? It's just that this SARS is too troublesome! I can't go anywhere! Haishi has now become an epidemic area! Wherever I go, it's estimated that it will be treated like today! What is this!"

Zhao Zhi smiled a little helplessly.

"Then forget it! Don't go out! Let's talk about it when this time is over! Anyway, you can't make enough money! Talent is the most important thing!"

Zhao Hong smiled and comforted his brother.

"Big brother, I heard Wanting say, you also happened to have something to look for me? Why didn't you come earlier? Isn't it a little too out-of-sight?"
