After receiving the notice, Ao Muyang hurried to the dock market.

Cockles are a kind of shellfish, which is very common in Hongyang seafood, because it has a layer of short hairs outside its shell, so it is also commonly known as hairy clams, which can be steamed in water and roasted, and the eating method is simple and delicious.

But it is indeed a dangerous seafood, with a large number of bacteria and hepatitis A virus that can be adsorbed on the cheeks of cockles, which can concentrate 29 times the hepatitis A virus and allow it to survive in the body for up to 3 months.

In this way, when people eat cockles, these viruses can infect the digestive system through the oral mucosa and act on the liver, eventually causing the disease hepatitis A.

In the history of New China, there have been many cases of hepatitis A caused by eating cockles, the most serious is the hepatitis A storm that broke out in the magic capital in 1988, which lasted for three months, infected nearly 300,000 people, and added 10,000 new patients every day, which is very terrifying.

At that time, after the outbreak of hepatitis A storm in the magic capital, the cockles were once withdrawn from the people's table, and later with the application of pollution control and strong sterilization disinfectants, the cockles returned to the table seafood ranks.

Since that year, the state has been much stricter in the inspection and quarantine of cockles, at least there has been no large-scale outbreak of this virus.

The discovery of hepatitis A virus by cockles in the market this time is a big deal, and Ao Muyang knows very well that once the virus breaks out, the entire market will have to be sealed and disinfected.

He wanted to take the ferry to the pier, but the ferry time was fixed and the speed was slower, and he was so anxious that he simply called out to the black dragon to drive, and they took the mountain road to the city.

Just when they were about to drive off, they received a call from Yang Shuyong, Yang Shuyong came to rub the car, so Ao Muyang simply called Fu Guozheng and Long Deshui again, and the two villages also have stalls in the dock market, and it is estimated that they will have to deal with this matter together.

Fu Guozheng came in a hurry, and Long Deshui came a little late, causing Yang Shuyong to complain: "Old Long, what's the matter with you? The big guys are in a hurry, what are you doing slowly?"

Long Deshui was also full of resentment, he said: "I just accompany you to solve this matter, our village's stalls in the market have not been open for the past two days, and our village does not sell cockles, what does it matter to me?"

Ao Muyang waved his hand and said: "Okay, don't talk nonsense when everyone arrives, the black dragon drives." ”

Big G roared and drove quickly onto the mountain road.

On the way, Long Deshui's mobile phone rang, and someone hurriedly said: "Hey, is it Long Deshui, the branch secretary of Longwangzhuang?" Hello, I am Guo Tieyong, the director of the Hongyang Wharf Market Management Office, you hurry up and come to the market, the city leaders want to comprehensively inspect the food safety of the seafood market......

Long Deshui said: "Director Guo, I know what's going on, hepatitis A virus has been found in some cockles, isn't it? This has nothing to do with me, our village ......."

"It doesn't matter if you have anything to do with it, don't say more, come over quickly, all the stall leaders have to come over, I'll tell you to hurry up, hurry over as fast as possible." Director Guo interrupted him and gave an order, and then hung up the phone.

Yang Shuyong gloated and said, "Isn't it nothing to do with you?"

Ao Muyang said: "Don't gloat, Brother Yong, this time the matter seems to be very serious." ”

The dock market has been sealed off, and the police have set up a cordon and hung a sign next to it saying that the market is closed for today.

Ao Muyang and his entourage rushed into the gate of the market, and a policeman asked, "Is it the person in charge of the stall?"

"Both. ”

"Then let's go inside. ”

The market was in a mess, all the shellfish was pushed to the front of the stalls, shellfish were constantly being pulled out of the warehouse, among which cockles were placed in piles in the open space, and people in white coats were sampling and inspecting.

Dai Zongxi, who had a big belly, stood in the center of the market, and there were several middle-aged people with dignified faces beside him, who were the heads of the Municipal Bureau of Industry and Commerce and the Food Inspection and Quarantine Bureau.

Ao Muyang went to the stall and asked the person in charge, Ao Qianyu, "Uncle, what's the matter?"

Ao Qianyu said: "It was found that the cockles contained the hepatitis A virus......

Ao Muyang waved his hand and said, "I know this, I'm asking how I found out about this?"

Ao Qianyu scratched his head and said, "I don't know much. ”

The owner of a stall opposite said: "I know this, my brother-in-law and his classmate's aunt work in an infectious disease hospital, and the hospital has recently received several cases of jaundice, and the onset is very urgent, and then the hepatitis A virus was found in a check." ”

Speaking of this, he clapped his hands vigorously and said: "Hey, hepatitis A patients appear in a concentrated manner, and if there is a leader, they will be wise and martial, and they will immediately find that there are cats in it, so they will start to investigate, and finally find our market." ”

The laboratory departments of many hospitals sent a working group to check the cockles, Dai Zongxi kept checking the results, and after a while, he beckoned Ao Muyang and called him over.

Ao Muyang asked, "Dai Ju, this time the matter is quite serious?"

Dai Zongxi said with a gloomy face: "The incident itself is not serious, and the number of infected people so far is not large. But now that the Internet is developed and there are too many self-media, I don't know how someone will stab things on the Internet, and everyone is in danger. ”

After speaking, he asked Ao Muyang again: "Do you sell cockles over there?"

Ao Muyang asked, "Are you sure it's the cockle's problem?"

Dai Zongxi said: "Yes, one of the patients is a doctor from an infectious disease hospital, because of the needs of work, they have regular physical examinations, the results of the last physical examination were normal, this time he went for a physical examination but found hepatitis A virus in the blood. According to a series of medical speculations, he believed that he was infected with the virus within a week, so the source of infection was related to the cockles he had eaten in the last porridge, and later the infectious disease hospital received some patients, and after examination, it was found that some people were infected with hepatitis A virus, and they also had the experience of eating cockles recently. ”

Ao Muyang said: "Wait, no, I remember that the hepatitis A virus has an incubation period when it enters the human body, right?

Dai Zongxi said: "The examination of doctors in the infectious disease hospital not only checks antibodies, but also checks the RNA of some viruses, that is, directly checks the virus itself, which is expensive but necessary." Anyway, don't ask, it's a big deal this time! Made, the sales of cockles are so high every day, once something happens, it will be a big deal!"

Cockles are very common seafood in the Red Ocean, its taste is very delicious, the price is cheap, the meat is tender and the taste is good, and the nutrition is rich in medicinal value, it can dissolve phlegm, soft and firm, disperse stasis, dissipate accumulation, and even use it to treat gastric and duodenal ulcers in traditional Chinese medicine.

He said this to Ao Muyang, not for gossip, but for something to ask him: "You have a lot of people in the market, go and help me check it out, and ask them if there is anything unusual in any stall recently?"

The dock market is an official market, strictly managed, and every merchant who comes in to do business must register, so there is no possibility of a market field army or seafood guerrillas, since the cockles are sold from here, they must be sold from a certain stall.

The market here is very large, and there are four or five hundred seafood stalls, of which there are dozens of cockles for sale, so it is difficult to rely on the official inspection and quarantine inspection.

Ao Muyang went back and asked the fishermen in the village with Yang Shuyong and others, and the big guy thought for a while, and then a young man from Longtou Village said: "Could this matter have anything to do with Wang Laoliu?"
