Nan Zhiqiao drove the car and looked up at the group of monkeys climbing between the towering trees, the shadows of the trees swaying, accompanied by the monkey cry of "pit, pit".

"It's the same species, and many of the long-tailed monkeys used for experiments are imported from Africa. ”

"What about the monkeys in Tinder No. 1, are they also imported from Africa?"

"A small part is. ”

Ye Zhenzhen remembered the infectious diseases related to African monkeys, among which the highest fatality rate was the Ebola virus, as well as AIDS and Marburg virus......

A hint of gloom flashed on Ye Zhenzhen's face, which was originally looking at the scenery, and Nan Zhiqiao sensitively noticed it, and asked, "What's the matter, what are you worried about?"

"When I saw these monkeys, I was reminded of several virulent infectious diseases related to monkeys, and the ones with bleeding symptoms, except for the Ebola virus, were the Marburg virus. ”

Speaking of Marburg virus, Nan Zhiqiao and Ye Zhenzhen, two infectious disease experts, know its origin.

Marburg virus is a virus that emerged from the tropical rainforests of Africa, but was first discovered in the German city of Marburg, Germany, and has a German name according to the territorial discovery nomenclature.

Marburg is a city in central Germany, surrounded by dense forests and meadows, with a biofactory in the city nestled in a green valley.

This plant is a biofactory that produces vaccines from the kidney cells of African green monkeys, and imports large quantities of monkeys from African Uganda every year.

In 1967, the factory imported another five or six hundred monkeys from Uganda, which carried the Marburg virus, and before importing, the monkeys did not show symptoms, and when they arrived at the factory in Marburg, Germany, the monkeys became ill and bled to death.

Soon, the Marburg virus crossed species, from monkeys to people.

The virus first spread to a monkey keeper at the factory, then to an assistant in the lab, and soon spread throughout the city.

People infected with Marburg virus have a fatality rate of 1 in 4 years, from headache, lack of energy, high fever, to death due to hemorrhage in all organs of the body.

Although the lethality of Marburg virus is not as high as that of some subtypes of Ebola, its clinical symptoms are horrifying.

People infected with the Marburg virus are exposed to nuclear radiation, which can damage various tissues of the body, including internal organs, skin, brain, and ...... , starting from the internal organs, affects various organs.

Survivors infected with the Marburg virus have their hair necrotic from the roots of the hair and fall out in patches, just like survivors of nuclear radiation.

Thinking of this, Nan Zhiqiao understood what Zhen Zhen was worried about, and comforted: "Don't worry, now imported monkeys will go through strict quarantine, and Ebola virus and Marburg virus are mandatory test items." Kenema's man would have been detected quickly if he had been infected with one of the two viruses. ”

"Are there tests available in the hospital in Kenema?"

"Dr. Mu brought a batch of testing reagents over, it should be no problem, and it is only a matter of time before the test results come out. ”

The off-road vehicle passed through the wooded area and saw the city's buildings in front of it in the distance.

All the way into the city, the off-road vehicle stopped at the entrance of the government hospital.

Dr. Mu, Professor Bavar, and most of the team are in the government hospital, which is the largest site in the Ebola vaccine clinical trial, so most of them are here.

After receiving a phone call in advance, Dr. Mu came to the door of the hospital to welcome Nan Zhiqiao and Zhen Zhen in.

In a makeshift office on the first floor of a government hospital, Dr. Mu explained the situation in detail.

It turned out that two days ago, when the clinical trial of the Ebola vaccine officially began, in accordance with the principle of informed consent, the experimental population was recruited, and one of them, a young man named Aelous, signed up for the experiment.

Eros is of mixed Lebanese and black descent, and unlike the locals with small eyes and a slumped nose, Eros has brown skin, large, godly eyes, a high nose, a hooked nose, and curly, thick hair.

Aelous signed up for the clinical trial of the Ebola vaccine, and the registrants did basic checks for Aelous's height, weight, body temperature, etc., and asked about his medical history and other relevant information.

Because Irus reported that he had recently experienced headaches, vomiting, and fever, the registration staff advised that he wait for his symptoms to disappear for a week before coming to the hospital for Ebola vaccination.

Elous followed the doctor's advice and went home on his own.

Two days later, Irus returned to the government hospital, but this time not to get the Ebola vaccine, but to the emergency room because of a sudden worsening condition.

Dr. Mu described how he sat on a bench in the emergency room with red and swollen eyes, bloodshot clothes on his clothes, bloodshot corners of his mouth and blood dripping from his nostrils.

Elous sat on the bench with a glazed look in his eyes, and the patients around him consciously moved away from him.

A well-wisher approached him and asked him if he wanted a doctor to treat him urgently, but there was no response from Aurus.

At this time, Dr. Mu passed by the door of the emergency room, suddenly heard a commotion in the emergency room, and hurriedly walked in to take a look, and found a man with brown skin and thick curly hair lying on the ground, convulsive.

The man who was convulsing was none other than Elous, and Dr. Mu leaned forward to find that the convulsive Elous was vomiting blood, and Elous was gurgling in his throat, which was the sound of him vomiting a mixture of blood and food debris in his stomach in a state of shock.

Suddenly, a "poof" sound came from inside Elous's pants, and then, Elous's pants were wet for a large time, and the gray pants were stained red and black with blood spurting out of the **.

There was a mess around Aelous, and the bloody vomit that spurted out of his mouth and the bloody excrement that gushed out of ** splattered out, making the wall of the emergency room chair black and red.

The smell of blood spread, and the patients waiting in the emergency room hid aside, and the doctors and nurses rushed to Ellus's side, carried him to the emergency bed, and took Ellus to the hospital's intensive care unit.

Dr. Mu recognized Eloz as the man who had been registered for the Ebola vaccine two days earlier but had delayed his vaccination because of previous symptoms.

Curious and curious, Dr. Mu also wanted to help save people, so he followed Elous to the hospital bed and entered the intensive care unit.

Because there was a badge worn on the outside of his clothes to prove his identity, no one stopped Dr. Mu.

In the intensive care unit, Dr. Mu saw Merck, an emergency doctor at the local government hospital, treating Ayrus urgently.

Dr. Merck is the best emergency doctor in this hospital, Merck, who is in her thirties, is humorous, easy-going, and serious in her work.

Merck, an emergency doctor, saw Aurus's symptoms and could not speculate or diagnose the cause at the first time, only knowing that the patient was bleeding profusely and had difficulty breathing.

Dr. Merck began symptomatic treatment, first unblocking the airways and cleaning the trachea that had been blocked by blood.
