"Dean Su, how are those patients doing now?" The reporter stretched out the microphone in front of Su Tianhai. Pen ~ fun ~ pavilion www.biquge.info
"Judging from the situation of the 33 patients who have been admitted to the hospital, except for two patients who are in serious condition and have been admitted to the ICU, the condition of the other patients is relatively stable." Su Tianhai's face was solemn and he explained the situation to reporters.
"Dean Su, is there any conclusion to prove what kind of disease this is? Why is it spreading so fast? Another reporter rushed to reach for the microphone.
"This ...... So far, it has not been possible to determine whether the disease is caused by bacteria or viruses, and of course, it cannot be ruled out that other pathogenic microorganisms are causing the disease! However, please don't panic, the Ministry of Health has activated the emergency plan and will control the spread of the disease as soon as possible! ”
"Dean Su, could you please predict whether this situation will spread to the world like SARS in 2002?"
"All medical staff are working hard and the relevant departments have taken active measures to protect themselves, and here I would like to take this opportunity to appeal to everyone to avoid going to crowded places to prevent infection!"
On TV, Su Tianhai, as the director of Kyoto Daiichi University Hospital, answered one question after another from reporters.
In just one week, the outbreak of the epidemic has spread to all provinces across the country, and patients have successively developed symptoms of skin ulceration, pus and bleeding, and have been urgently admitted to the hospital for isolation and care.
This is undoubtedly the most serious epidemic event since SRAS, and the national health department has made strict arrangements, once a new case is discovered, it must be isolated and treated within 1 hour to prevent infection!
However, with the passage of time, more and more patients have symptoms of skin ulceration, according to statistics, the number of patients is increasing at a rate of several hundred per day, and the clinical treatment effect is not optimistic, there have been dozens of patient deaths, and there is a trend of intensification!
A day later, Kyoto City, the conference hall of the Ministry of Health building.
Li Jishan, Vice Minister of Health, personally presided over the meeting and convened elites from various clinical medical industries across the country to discuss the epidemic.
"The epidemic is urgent, I won't talk so much nonsense, everyone here today is the elite of our country's medical industry, for this epidemic, I want to hear your thoughts!" Li Jishan's expression was serious, and he desperately needed a feasible way to control the spread of the epidemic as soon as possible.
"The epidemic report in my hand makes me feel shocked! As of now, there have been 3,782 cases and 158 deaths across the country! Li Jishan didn't have a smile and was under tremendous pressure.
In the TV epidemic report, in order to avoid excessive panic among the people, all the data is only half of this real data!
"Dean Su, talk about your thoughts!" Li Jishan couldn't wait, and named Su Tianhai.
"This outbreak is so rapid and spreading that it has surpassed SARS! We have given the best antibiotics to the patient, but the effect is ...... It's not obvious! Su Tianhai replied truthfully, he knew that he could not hide it in this matter, and he had to tell the actual situation.
"Academician Liu, have you figured out what the cause of the disease is?" Looking at Academician Liu from the Institute of Microbiology of the Chinese Academy of Sciences, Li Jishan asked.
"We have done experiments, and at present, we can rule out a viral infection, but it is not possible to make a clear judgment on whether it is bacteria or mycoplasma, chlamydia or any other pathogenic microorganisms!" Academician Liu said regretfully.
"Antibiotics have no effect, the cause of the disease cannot be found, it seems that the situation we are facing is not ordinary severe!" Looking at an old man with white hair and a pale face, Minister Li asked, "Mr. Chang, I don't know, what do you think about this epidemic?" ”
In the past, TCM doctors would not be invited on such occasions, but this time the epidemic was too rapid and it was an exception.
Several other national treasure-level old Chinese medicine doctors from the Chinese Medicine Association were also invited to the scene, as well as Li Wenyuan, as a new member of the association, also came with Chang Baicao.
"This epidemic is very strange, I have checked the pulse of a patient, it is no different from a normal person, I tried to use the Eight Treasures Detoxification Soup, but it did not have any effect!" Chang Baicao's expression was not without regret.
There were also eight other national treasure-level old Chinese medicine doctors present, namely Taishan Beidou of the eight treatment factions of sweating, spitting, xia, and, warming, clearing, tonifying, and eliminating, but seeing their expressions, they also shook their heads lightly, and they couldn't come up with any good solutions.
"Is there any effect of treatment with serum?" Li Jishan threw out the question, which was not groundless, because when the SARS epidemic broke out, someone proposed to use serum treatment, and later achieved very good treatment results.
"I've thought about it, but the current situation is that the antibodies in the serum can't be extracted!" A Western medicine expert said.
"Antibiotics, Chinese medicine, serum, all of them, is there really no way!" Li Jishan was anxious, he knew that if the epidemic was not controlled again, the consequences would be unimaginable!
Silence, silence in the room.
After a while, the eyes of two people fell on one place, and their voices sounded in unison: "Wen Yuan, do you have any ideas?" ”
These two people are Su Tianhai and Chang Baicao, they are not very familiar with each other, and when they said this, they all looked at each other in surprise.
Li Wenyuan came with Chang Baicao, and Su Tianhai only saw him when he entered the venue just now.
"Li Wenyuan? Dr. Li, is there anything you can do about this outbreak? Li Jishan also knew that Li Wenyuan, especially the recent "nourishing and nourishing liquid" incident was in a uproar, and the Ministry of Health was almost about to intervene, he just heard Su Tianhai, a Western medicine expert, and Wang Chang Baicao, a Chinese medicine expert, call Li Wenyuan's name at the same time, and he knew that Li Wenyuan's medical skills were definitely not simple!
However, Li Wenyuan's answer disappointed everyone: "I...... I don't have a good idea. ”
After a pause, seeing everyone's expressions declining, he said again: "However, I do have an idea." ”
"What thoughts? Don't have any worries, just speak up! Li Jishan said immediately.
"I think...... We can try to find the source of the disease, find the person who first got sick, and start with him! Li Wenyuan said.
"Source? From an etiological point of view, this is indeed very necessary, but I am afraid that it is not easy! "Some people questioned it.
Since the development of the epidemic, in just one week, it has rapidly grown from the initial dozen cases to nearly 4,000 people, and the number of cases is still increasing.
Moreover, maybe this initial patient has already died!
"Wen Yuan, do you already have a way to find the source of the disease?" Chang Baicao knew Li Wenyuan and knew that he wouldn't talk nonsense, so he asked.
"Chang Lao, I do have some eyebrows, give me three days, within three days, I think, I should be able to find out!" Li Wenyuan said.
"Three days? No, three days is too long! Two days, I'll only give you two days! Within two days, be sure to find the source of the problem! "Li Jishan is not a threat, he is worried that the longer the time drags on, the more uncontrollable the epidemic will be!
"Okay, Minister Li, then two days!" Li Wenyuan made a military order.
