Chapter 40. epidemic situation
Xiao Yao looked at Uncle Wang and nodded in approval, and then continued: "Isn't it always said that 'disease enters from the mouth', then we will prevent it from the aspect of eating imports, for example: don't drink raw water, don't eat raw, cold, and spoiled food, that is, the water must be boiled before drinking, and raw and long-term food will not be eaten, according to my guess, the biggest reason why these foreign refugees will get sick is that they must have eaten dead pigs and dead ducks on the road before they got sick, am I right, Uncle Wang?" ”
Uncle Wang thought for a while and replied, "That's true, it was originally a refugee, eating less, and seeing what can fill the stomach is there to care about the rest." Alas. Xiao Yao also nodded and said: "Let's go on, and then we should wash our hands before and after meals, especially children should develop good handwashing habits, and children's resistance is low, so as to reduce the probability of children getting sick; In addition, the dishes and chopsticks used for eating should also be boiled with boiling water to scald, and the raw and cooked cutting boards and other cooking utensils should be separated. Uncle Wang frowned and asked, "Why are you so careful?" Xiao Yao replied: "It's not because extraordinary times have to be dealt with very much, if it is usual, there is no need for such trouble, right, it will be good after this epidemic period; Also, this fly and mouse must be destroyed, Uncle Wang, think about it, this fly and mouse are very fond of dead things, they all run to the dead pigs, dead ducks, dead people to eat, and then run to our house to provoke our food, what will happen to us? Xiao Yao looked at Uncle Wang in contemplation, and then said: "Also, we use well water in the city now, this can't be drunk directly, it must be boiled before drinking, this is not lazy, you see, the well water comes from river water, rainwater, etc., there is a problem with the river water, and the well water is difficult to avoid, right?" Uncle Wang looked at Xiao Yao's smiling face, thinking that this little girl is very careful, she has thought of all aspects, and she will be a great one in the future, I heard that Zhang Xiucai and Li Lao are very optimistic about her, it seems that it is not false at all, at a young age, should I also let her study medicine? Uncle Wang smiled at Xiao Yao and nodded, and Xiao Yao said: "Remind people not to defecate anywhere, not to dump garbage, to concentrate in one place to defecate, and to take out garbage, then build one or several large toilets, and stipulate that they all go there, so that they will not pollute the water source." Right? Uncle Wang. ”
"Yes, yes, that's it, all aspects have been taken into account, so that there will not be more patients, as long as the sick ones are cured." Uncle Wang listened to Xiao Yao's detailed explanation, so he nodded and said.
"If you have symptoms such as abdominal pain, diarrhoea, nausea, vomiting and fever, you should report it immediately and seek medical attention to avoid delaying the disease and causing the spread of the disease." Xiao Yao added.
"Okay, that's it, Xiao Yao, you come and study medicine with me, don't waste your talents, you can't rely on the book I gave you alone. Pander to? "Uncle Wang has come to lobby Xiao Yao.
"Uncle Wang, this problem of studying medicine is nothing, I will come to you more often to ask for advice when I have time in the future, right? Now deal with this epidemic first, this prevention problem still needs to be told to the adults, it is estimated that they all know how to do it, and this task will be handed over to you to complete. Xiao Yao hurriedly said.
"No problem, you ghost, but it's better to write it down before you can say it, come, you come in with me, sort out what you just said, sort it out, and write it out systematically." Uncle Wang walked inside after saying goodbye to Xiao Yao, and Xiao Yao followed. The two of them said that one wrote it one by one, and it was quickly written, and Uncle Wang asked Xiao Yao with a smile: "What kind of medicine do you say is better to use to prevent it?" ”
"How about using mugwort?" Xiao Yao thought for a while and replied, "Mugwort leaves have a bitter and pungent taste, and they are warm. Return to the liver, spleen, and kidney meridians. Artemisia leaves can prevent plague, and can be taken from local materials, is a broad-spectrum antibacterial and antiviral drug, it has inhibition and killing effect on many viruses and bacteria, and has a certain prevention and treatment effect on respiratory diseases. The mature mugwort leaf smoke epidemic prevention method is a simple and easy epidemic prevention method. ”
"Okay, that sounds good, but is it practical for our current situation?" Uncle Wang clapped his hands and asked. Xiao Yao smiled and said, "As long as we can do what we just said, plus this wormwood smoke, what are we afraid of?" "Okay, I'll go to the adults to report the situation now, implement it as soon as possible, deal with it as soon as possible, and rest assured as soon as possible." It's okay for you to go home obediently, don't run outside, it's a mess outside. ”
After speaking, Uncle Wang also rushed away, muttering as he walked, "I said that the strength is limited, I have to find a few pharmacy shopkeepers to go together." Xiao Yao didn't know that Uncle Wang was also looking for helpers, and felt that he had nothing to do, so he also took a look here in the pharmacy and took a hand there.
Xiao Yao suddenly saw Tian Qi sitting at the door with his chin in his hands and sighing, so he ran over and patted Tian Qi's shoulder and asked, "Tian Qi, what's wrong with you?" ”
Tian Qi looked at Xiao Yao listlessly and said, "It's nothing." Tian Qi continued to be in a daze, Xiao Yao frowned and said, "What's the matter, say it, isn't there a saying that 'one person counts short and two people count long'." Let's talk about it. Tian Qi said helplessly: "The person who just went out to buy medicinal materials came back, saying that there is a shortage of medicine everywhere, and there are many patients, and many medicines have not been bought, what should I do?" The shopkeeper went out to do errands, but he didn't know about this situation yet. "What's going on out there?" Xiao Yao asked immediately. "Several nearby cities are overcrowded, and 9 percent of them are patients, and the medicinal materials are out of stock. What's going on? Tian Qi said.
"I see that the situation is a bit serious, what kind of medicine are we missing?" Xiao Yao asked.
"Radix indigo, forsythia, skullcap, coptis, etc., these are ordinary, but they are necessary." Tian Qi said, "These are often used. I don't have much stock now, so I can't last long. ”
"Can I use other drugs instead?" Xiao Yao said.
"How? These medicines are all said in the prescription, and basically nothing has changed. Tian Qi said loudly. You are stupid, there can be several prescriptions for the treatment of a disease, and this medicine is missing, so it is not enough to change the prescription. Xiao Yao looked at Tian Qi suspiciously, this person is the material for making a boy, this will not be flexible? Why is the head so dead? "But, this, this pink eye, Banlangen is necessary." Tian Qi also said a little lacking in qi.
"Oh, you said that this pink eye, I wouldn't see a doctor and prescribe a prescription, but the last time I read a book, I saw a prescription, you hurry up and get a pen and ink to remember." Xiao Yao urged Tian Qi to say. Tian Qi went to get a pen, paper, and ink to come out, and get ready. Xiao Yao continued: "20 grams of white chrysanthemum, frost mulberry leaves, dandelions, and 15 grams of duckweed, decoction or washing every day, two doses are enough. Can you write it down and show Uncle Wang if it's available? If you can, you can replace it, and you can save some other medicine."
