Dr. Mu: "Dr. SKY's office is on the second floor, and he's there when he's not sick. ”

Dr. Mu took Nan Zhiqiao and Ye Zhenzhen to find Doctor Sky, and luckily, he happened to be in the office.

Dr. Mu symbolically knocked on the door, and Dr. SKY was looking at a case file when he heard a knock on the door and looked up.

Seeing a few familiar faces, especially when he saw Nan Zhiqiao, Dr. SKY immediately stood up, his face was full of surprise, he greeted him with a smile, and asked in English in amazement, "Doctor Nan, why are you here? Is there something wrong? You can't come to see me, right?"

Dr. SKY is humorous and funny, and Nan Zhiqiao explains what he means.

Dr. SKY got serious, handed the case in his hand to Nan Zhiqiao, and said, "Look, this is the information I found." ”

The information that Dr. SKY handed to Nan Zhiqiao was about Elous, and Ye Zhenzhen also came to Nan Zhiqiao's side to read Airus's information.

This is a similar document to that in Dr. Mu's possession, but it contains some more information about Aeloth at the Infectious Disease Prevention and Control Center.

A blood sample from Aeloz was tested at the Center for Infectious Disease Control and tested negative for Ebola, and the doctor's diagnosis of death was unknown.

Nan no Qiao asked Dr. SKY, "What other tests were performed on the blood sample of Aelous besides the Ebola virus?"

Dr. SKY: "The Center for Infectious Disease Prevention and Control only did Ebola testing, and our government hospital also kept some blood samples from Aelous, and we did routine blood tests, and the total number of white blood cells decreased, neutrophils increased, and platelets dropped to almost zero. ”

Nan Zhiqiao: "Have you been tested for Marburg virus and Lassa fever virus?"

Dr. SKY shook his head, "No, our hospital lacks the corresponding testing reagents, and the testing reagents are incomplete, which makes us unable to quickly diagnose the cause of the patient's death." ”

Nan Zhiqiao understands that the local experimental conditions are poor, many people can't afford to see a doctor, and the hospital's funds are used to buy instruments and drugs, which is not enough, let alone store these uncommon detection reagents.

Before Nan Zhiqiao remembered Sierra Leone, he asked Dr. Mu to bring a batch of tropical disease detection reagents from the Tinder No. 1 base, and that batch of reagents should have been in place.

Seeing Nan Zhiqiao's eyes, Dr. Mu understood Nan Zhiqiao's question, and hurriedly explained: "The testing reagents I brought were all sent to the Infectious Disease Prevention and Control Center, and all that remained in the hospital here were some medical equipment. ”

Nan Zhiqiao: "Among the test kits brought from China are Marburg virus and Lassa fever virus test kits, why didn't the Center for Infectious Disease Prevention and Control do the tests?"

Dr. Mu glanced at Dr. SKY next to him with some embarrassment, but Dr. SKY was not embarrassed and directly stated the reason, "Because we told the Center for Infectious Disease Prevention and Control that it was suspected that Aeloth was infected with the Ebola virus, they only tested for the Ebola virus." ”

Ye Zhenzhen was stunned for a moment, thinking to herself, the level of doctors in the hospital here really needs to be trained.

Nan Zhiqiao didn't ask any more questions, and said directly to Dr. SKY, "I want to go to the Infectious Disease Prevention and Control Center to dissect Irus's body, when do you have time?"

"It's available now, ready to go. ”

Dr. Sky cooperated, and Nan Zhiqiao immediately started the SUV and took Vera and Dr. Sky to the infectious disease prevention center in the suburbs.

——

Dr. Sky contacted the Infectious Disease Prevention and Control Center in advance, and when Nan Zhiqiao and his party arrived, the staff of the Infectious Disease Prevention and Control Center took the three of them directly to the place where Aurus's body was parked.

The morgue is in a bungalow in a corner of the compound of the Center for Infectious Disease Prevention and Control, where freezers are installed.

Aeloth's body was wrapped in a waterproof body bag and kept in a freezer.

The staff dragged Aurus's body out of the freezer and sent it to a relatively isolated room with an autopsy table and various dissection tools for dissecting the cadavers.

Ye Zhenzhen looked at the design and configuration of the room and asked, "Senior Nan, we won't just dissect the corpse here, right?" Elous is a suspected highly pathogenic source of infection, at least it should be dissected in the P3 laboratory. ”

Nan Zhiqiao: "There is no P3 laboratory here, this is a negative pressure room, and there is an air filtration device outside, which basically meets the dissection conditions, and our dissection personnel must do a good job of personal protection." ”

The personal protective equipment in the infectious disease prevention and control center is very advanced, most of it is foreign aid, and the three of them put on biosafety protective suits like space suits and get to work.

The autopsy of Ellus's corpse is performed by Nan Zhi Qiao and Ye Zhenzhen, and Dr. Sky is responsible for the recording.

Opening the abdominal cavity of Erous, the internal organs inside were already rotten, to this extent the corpse would only appear after three days of storage, and Lovely Ruz had been dead for only six hours, as if Elous had already begun to die from the inside before he was declared clinically dead by the doctor.

Aurus's liver is yellow, indicating that his liver had ceased to function a few days before his death.

The intestinal endothelium of Irus was detached, which was also a reaction to the prolonged storage of the corpse.

Manually sawing open Arous's braincase, his cerebral cortex had liquefied, only the brain stem was still intact, and the entire ventricle was filled with black-red fluid.

Autopsy indications indicate that before his death, Elous's body underwent a fierce struggle with the pathogen, and in the end, Elous's body was defeated and died after being tormented by the unknown pathogen.

At the same time as the autopsy, Nan Zhiqiao collected cerebrospinal fluid, brain tissue, blood, and intestinal contents, and each sample was placed into a sterile plastic sampling tube, sealed, packed into a sampling box, and then packed with biosafety materials.

The specimens collected from Aurus were airlifted back to the Tranquility Medical Center, and Nan Zhiqiao appointed Li Guoyi to test the specimens.

Before the specimens were ready for air transport, the local airline refused to board the specimens because they were suspected to be Ebola patients.

In the end, Nanzhiqiao found a local air station of Nanmu Group and brought it back to the domestic laboratory with the group's aircraft.

While Nan Zhiqiao and his party were dissecting Aelus's corpse and processing specimens, the results of the second test of Aelos's blood samples by the local infectious disease prevention and control center came out.

The second test was carried out using a variety of test kits, all of which were negative for various pathogens associated with haemorrhagic fever symptoms, such as Marburg virus, Lassa fever virus, hantavirus, dengue virus, and malaria parasite.

The cause of Arous's death is unknown, the pathogen has not been found, and the only thing that is certain is that he died of a severe bleeding disorder, and before he died, Elous was like a man who had been melted by an unknown pathogen.

The symptoms of Eros are very similar to those of Ebola virus infection, and people in the hospital who know about it, as well as those who have seen Erous's symptoms before his death, are terrified, especially the medical staff who have cared for Aeros.
