Nan Zhiqiao learned about the situation with Lao Zhao, the Tibet Autonomous Region Disease Control and Control.

Lao Zhao was in charge of the investigation of the on-site illness in the Tibet Autonomous Region Disease Control and Control, and when Nan Zhiqiao went to Tibet to help the border, the two went to the scene together and had a good relationship.

Lao Zhao knows no more information than the information on the Internet about the epidemic, and the Center for Disease Control and Prevention in Township G has applied to the Autonomous Region CDC to send an expert group to investigate in Village M.

Speaking of sending a team of experts to M Village to conduct an on-site epidemiological investigation, Lao Zhao began to warmly and sincerely invite Nan Zhiqiao to Tibet.

According to Nan Zhiqiao's previous character, when he encountered the epidemic, he would definitely go to help, but now he is a little hesitant.

Zhen Zhen understood the reason for Nan Zhiqiao's hesitation, it was already late April, and in a few days, she would return to Zhen Zhen's hometown to hold a wedding.

After Nan Zhiqiao understood the situation with Lao Zhao, he did not agree to the invitation sent by Lao Zhao, nor did he refuse, but just said that he would take a look at his work arrangement and call him back after a while.

After hanging up the phone, Nan Zhiqiao looked at Zhen Zhen, and before she could speak, Zhen Zhen took the initiative to say: "Work first, the wedding in my hometown can wait until I come back from Tibet." ”

Zhen Zhen's expectant and somewhat excited little eyes fell on Nan Zhiqiao's eyes, and Nan Zhiqiao asked with a smile: "Zhen Zhen, you really want to go to Tibet?"

"If you go, I'll go with you. Zhen Zhen nodded repeatedly.

Nan Zhiqiao smiled and sighed, "You want to go to Tibet to play." ”

"Where?" Zhen Zhen defended herself with a weak heart, "I'm supporting your work, Senior Nan, the laboratory is not busy during this time, when are we leaving?"

Nan Zhiqiao: "Whether you need to go or not depends on whether there is a connection between the bubonic plague incident at the airport and the cluster of unexplained deaths in Village M." ”

Zhen Zhen: "I think there must be a connection, and the evidence is missing now." ”

Just as Nan Zhiqiao and Zhen Zhen were discussing the connection between the two, the district CDC called, and after cooperating with the police to investigate, it was found that the male passenger with plague at the airport had indeed been to M Village, L County, G Township, during his trip to Tibet.

After the call from the district disease control, Nan Zhiqiao was silent for a while, and in Zhen Zhen's expectant eyes, Nan Zhiqiao made a decision, "Okay, fly to Tibet tomorrow." ”

"Yay!" said Vera excitedly as she gestured to a scissorhands.

Nan Zhiqiao made a serious statement, "Zhen Zhen, we went to Tibet to deal with the epidemic, not tourism. ”

"Understood. Zhen Zhen rubbed her cheeks with both hands, and her excited smile turned into a serious and old look, "The epidemic is dangerous, take it seriously." ”

——

The decision was made, and the trip to Tibet began.

After arranging the affairs of the CDC laboratory, Liang Chen and Kexin were in charge of the Guojing Medical Center, Professor Bavar and Secretary Li were watching at the Tinder No. 1 base, and Nan Zhiqiao and Zhen Zhen set off with peace of mind.

I first flew to Tibet Gonggar International Airport, got off the plane, and then transferred to the airport expressway to go to the Tibet Autonomous Region Center for Disease Control and Prevention in Lhasa.

The person in charge of the reception is Lao Zhao.

Lao Zhao is a Han man in his forties, tall and strong, with a little fat belly, because he has lived on the plateau for a long time, and there are two lumps of plateau red on his cheeks.

Lao Zhao hugged Nan Zhiqiao first, and Nan Zhiqiao introduced Zhen Zhen, "This is Teacher Ye Zhenzhen from our laboratory, and she is also my wife." ”

Lao Zhao's face was shocked, and then he introduced himself to Zhen Zhen: "My name is Zhao Yueming, and I am an old friend of Director Nan, just call me Lao Zhao as my younger siblings." ”

Lao Zhao turned his face and complained in a slightly reproachful tone, "Director Nan, this is what you are wrong, why didn't you tell us when you got married? I didn't drink the wine, and I didn't give the money, I still remember when you were here, my daughter-in-law gave birth to a young son, you took a lot of money, and gave a silver lock, at that time I thought, when will you get married and have children, we will also go to have a fun, I didn't expect that you didn't inform us, this time, you want to make up for your happy wine." ”

Nan Zhiqiao explained with a smile: "The wedding is in June, and you can invite you to drink the wedding wine in advance, but after the end of this epidemic investigation. ”

Lao Zhao smiled, "Okay." ”

After the three of them finished greetings, they got to the point, and when they talked about the epidemic in M Village, several people became serious.

Nan Zhiqiao asked about the current situation in M Village, and Lao Zhao's face was heavy, "Some of the deceased's homes have already developed symptoms of fever, cough, and phlegm. ”

"We're going to Village M now. "When it comes to work, Nan Zhiqiao is very positive.

"Now?" Lao Zhao was a little surprised, looking at the luggage in Nan Zhiqiao and Zhen Zhen's hands, "M Village is far from here. ”

"It doesn't matter, since we are going to do an on-site miscarriage investigation, we have to do it as soon as possible, we have luggage and can stay on site. ”

Lao Zhao was also anxious to find out the cause of death of the villagers in M Village, and also wanted to control the epidemic as soon as possible.

M Village is located in the southwest of L County, with an average altitude of 4,300 meters above sea level, and is 160 kilometers away from the county seat.

I traveled from Lhasa to the county seat and met with the staff of the local county health department. Then go from the county seat to M Village, G Township.

I drove along the mountain road for more than three hours from L County, and outside the car window was a plateau pasture scenery, a pasture that stretched in spring, a herd of cattle and sheep, the sky was exceptionally blue, and the air was slightly green and fragrant.

The car came to a halt under a wooden railing, Lao Zhao got out of the car, and Nan Zhiqiao and Zhen Zhen also followed closely behind.

After getting out of the car, Zhen Zhen raised her eyes and looked around, the vast plateau pasture was shocking, and in the distance, in addition to the sheep, there were several horses leisurely gnawing on the pasture.

"Are you there?" asked Vera, staring at a few nomadic tents not far away.

Lao Zhao waved his hand, "It's still far away, and it will take more than three hours to get there on horseback." ”

What? Horseback riding? More than three hours of riding!

The look of surprise was written on Zhen Zhen's face.

I don't know if it was because of surprise or because of the long ride, Zhen Zhen coughed.

Nan Zhiqiao hurriedly patted Zhen Zhen on the back and asked with concern, "What's wrong?"

"Ahem...... Zhen Zhen coughed for a while, clutched her chest and gasped, "It's okay, it's just a little stuffy." ”

Nan Zhiqiao's face was nervous, he touched Zhen Zhen's forehead, looked at Zhen Zhen's complexion carefully, and then looked at Zhen Zhen's palm, and checked his fingernails, "What else is uncomfortable?"

Lao Zhao looked at Nan Zhiqiao, who had always been steady, from the side, and couldn't help but smile because of a few coughs from his wife.

Zhen Zhen withdrew her hand and comforted, "I'm fine, maybe a little motion sickness." ”

Nan Zhiqiao is still not at ease, "Do you have a headache, nausea and want to vomit, or a feeling of numbness in your hands and feet?"

"Nope. Zhen Zhen denied it, but looking at Nan Zhiqiao's nervous expression, Zhen Zhen guessed: "Zhiqiao, are you worried that I am infected with Yersinia pestis? Don't worry, I have been vaccinated with Y. pestis, have you forgotten? You injected me, I am not so easily infected." ”

Nan Zhiqiao held Zhen Zhen's hand, "I'm not worried about that, I'm worried that you will have altitude sickness." ”
