Chapter 3: Sudden calls
After listening to Zhen Zhen's description, the uncle interjected: "Yes, the man's family said that before the patient was sent to the hospital, there was a feeling of ants crawling on his arm. Pen | fun | pavilion www. ο½ο½ο½ο½ο½ο½ γ ο½ο½ο½ο½β
"Well, ant walking, this is a typical prodromal symptom of rabies. β
Zhen Zhen continued the previous words and said: "The third stage is the excitement period, the patient gradually enters a state of high excitement, which is highlighted by extreme terror, hydrophobia, wind phobia, episodic pharyngeal muscle spasm, dyspnea, difficulty urinating and defecating and sweating and salivation, this stage lasts for one to three days, hydrophobia is a special symptom of rabies, typical people see water, drink water, listen to the sound of running water, can cause severe throat muscle spasm. Wind intolerance is also one of the common symptoms, breeze or other stimuli such as light, sound, touch, etc., can cause pharyngeal muscle spasm, and in severe cases, it can cause painful convulsions of the whole body. β
"When he was in the emergency room that day, the man hid in a corner of the emergency room tremblingly, drooling, no matter who talked to him, he was very scared, it turned out that it was the excitement of rabies, and his crazy bite was also a manifestation of the excitement of rabies, right?" asked the uncle.
"Well, after the euphoria, there is the last stage of rabies, the fourth stage, the paralysis phase, in which the patient gradually quiets down, but then there is flaccid paralysis, which is more common than limp paralysis. Ophthalmic muscles, facial muscles and masticatory muscles can also be affected, manifested as strabismus, eye movement disorders, jaw dropping, mouth can not be closed, lack of facial expression, etc., the paralysis period generally lasts about 10 hours, there are also short cases, after entering the paralysis period for 6 hours, due to respiratory muscle paralysis and bulbar paralysis and death. β
The people around the dinner table were a little embarrassed after listening to Zhen Zhen's words, but they didn't expect that the "punishment of the mountain god" that everyone had passed on orally turned out to be rabies, and the little aunt asked curiously: "Can't rabies be cured?"
Zhen Zhen had a helpless look on her face, shook her head, and said, "At present, rabies is a preventable and incurable disease, and once rabies occurs, the mortality rate is 100%. β
"Ah, so serious?" the little aunt was said to be palpitated, and asked: "Before, I was in the town, and I saw a child who was bitten by a mad dog, and after being vaccinated, he was alive and well." β
"Well, after being bitten by a dog or cat, you must be vaccinated against rabies, so as to effectively prevent the onset of rabies. β
"After being bitten by a dog, if the biting dog does not have rabies, does it not need to be vaccinated against rabies?" asked the aunt.
After thinking about it, Zhen Zhen said: "The animal that hurts people looks okay on the surface, but it may be a rabies virus carrier, although this animal looks normal, it can still transmit rabies, so after being bitten, the safest thing to do is to inject rabies vaccine, and if the bite is severe, inject rabies serum." β
"Oh, that sounds dangerous, Vera, don't go to that forest park this time, it's scary to have rabies in there. The little aunt instructed.
"I'm not afraid, I've done pre-exposure active immunization. β
"Pre-exposure immunization? What is that?" asked the aunt curiously.
Vera smiled and explained, "Pre-exposure active immunization is to get vaccinated against rabies in advance before being bitten. β
The uncle asked in surprise: "Zhen Zhen, in order to go to the forest park to play, you actually got the rabies vaccine in advance?"
Zhen Zhen smiled and said, "Before I came, I didn't know what wild people were, this rabies vaccine in advance is required by the laboratory." β
This time, it was my grandmother's turn to be worried, and she asked, "What does your lab do? Why do you have to get a rabies vaccine in advance? Is it dangerous?"
Knowing that her grandmother was worried, Zhen Zhen hurriedly comforted her and said: "Grandma, my work is not dangerous at all, but before entering the laboratory, the unit requires a unified injection of vaccines, which can play a preventive role, these are preventive measures and are harmless to the body." β
"Oh. Grandma was skeptical, and after a while, she still told Zhen Zhen: "Although I have been vaccinated, it is still very dangerous in that forest park, except for wild people, in those undeveloped primeval forest areas, there is a strange sound of sonic shock valley, I don't know what other monsters there are, you must not go." β
Zhen Zhen accepted it on the surface, but she was even more curious in her heart, the "wild man" that her uncle said, and the "monster" in her grandmother's mouth, all aroused Zhen Zhen's curiosity, and she thought that after the wedding of her senior sister, she must go to find out.
Grandma's hearty dinner, after eating almost an hour to end, after the meal, Zhen Zhen rushed to wash the dishes, this is the most common thing Zhen Zhen did when she lived at her grandmother's house in the past, this time back, as always.
Halfway through the dishes, Vera's phone rang.
"Jingle Bell ......"
Drying his hands and picking up the phone, Senior Sister Wanru's voice came from inside: "Zhenzhen, where are you now?"
"I just arrived at my grandmother's house, and I plan to stay for one night, and I will go to your wedding tomorrow morning, Senior Sister Wanru, what is the matter with you calling me so late?"
"I was going to let you live in my house, but since you want to live in my grandmother's house, forget it. Su Wanru then sighed and said, "Zhen Zhen, I need your help for tomorrow's wedding." β
"What's the matter? Senior Sister told her, as long as she didn't run away from marriage. Zhen Zhen said playfully.
"It's going to be nonsense. Su Wanru laughed and scolded on the other end of the phone, and then said, "Tomorrow, you will be my bridesmaid." β
"Ah, hasn't the bridesmaids already decided?"
Su Wanru sighed and said, "Originally, it was decided to let my cousin be a bridesmaid, but she suddenly had diarrhea and a fever today, and she may not even be able to attend the wedding tomorrow, and I can't help it, so I think of you." β
Ye Zhenzhen agreed: "No problem, I can be your bridesmaid, but I have never been a bridesmaid before, what do I need to do to be a bridesmaid?"
"It's very simple, it's to help me carry my bag and block wine on my wedding day. β
"Oh, I'm okay with my drinks. Zhen Zhen happily agreed, and then asked, "Senior sister, didn't you say that you were going to travel to get married, why do you want to hold a wedding in your hometown?"
Su Wanru sighed again and complained: "It's not because of the insistence of both parents, Haotian's parents are also well-known figures in L City, and they feel that their only son is married, and if a grand wedding is not held, I am sorry for relatives and friends, as a result, as soon as the parents of both sides discussed, they decided to hold a wedding before we went on a trip." β
Zhang Haotian is Su Wanru's fiancΓ©, Zhen Zhen has seen his photos on the Internet before, and he is a handsome young man.
"Oh, I see, when are you going on a trip?"
"After the wedding at noon, I will fly in the afternoon. β
"In such a hurry, have you chosen a place to travel?"
"Well, go to Finland to see the Northern Lights. β
