Chapter 407: Low Proportions

Just as Su Wen nodded secretly, another male voice said hesitantly: "Even if cowpox is different from smallpox, rumors also say that this method may not work." Except for Dr. Hua, no other doctor had ever heard of this method. ”

Seeing that he questioned, the young man who spoke just now immediately retorted: "Since it is a secret recipe, naturally not many people will know about it. Although Dr. Hua has only treated the Queen Mother in the capital, his medical skills are obvious to all. There are so many diseases that the imperial doctor has no choice but to do, and I heard that she only used a few needles to solve them. ”

In the face of the young man's rebuttal, the voice of the previous questioning was immediately a little short of breath. In fact, he didn't doubt Su Wen's medical skills, but he was affected by the rumors circulating in the outside world, and he felt unsure in his heart.

Seeing that the argument was almost over, Su Wen deliberately coughed and reminded the group of apprentices in the room. By the time she walked into the room, everyone had returned to their usual quietness. When she entered, as if nothing had happened, she greeted everyone before she sat down in her exclusive seat.

Seeing the expressions on everyone's faces that wanted to stop talking, Su Wen knew that they all wanted to ask about the rumor yesterday. Since this meeting was dedicated to pre-war mobilization, it is not impossible to explain it by the way.

Coughing slightly, Su Wen said with a serious face: "There were some rumors spreading in the market yesterday, you must have heard about it." On an occasion like today, I feel compelled to explain some of the things mentioned in the rumors. I've summarized the rumors and they can be summed up in two points. They are the relationship with smallpox and the final curative effect. ”

Seeing that she took the initiative to mention the rumors yesterday at the beginning, everyone present immediately pricked up their ears. Without exception, they had all heard the rumor, so they were all eager to see what explanation Su Wen would make.

Smiling at everyone, Su Wen explained with a calm face: "The relationship between cowpox and smallpox, you are both studying medicine, what is the difference, do you need others to explain in detail?" Compare the symptoms of smallpox with those of your vaccinia, and everything will be clear. ”

Hearing her words, everyone present fell into thought. They had already known the difference between the two from the mouths of their companions, and now they had a more accurate understanding of the difference between the two after being confirmed by Su Wen.

Nodding in satisfaction. Su Wen then said indifferently: "As for the final effect of cowpox." No matter what I say now, no one who doubts will ever believe it. In that case, I don't want to say anything, I just have to wait for the smallpox to pass and see it at a glance. Please remember one thing - facts are the only test of truth. ”

In the face of Su Wen's answer. Everyone couldn't help but look at each other. They had thought that Suwen would defend the curative effect of cowpox. Unexpectedly, it was just a maxim.

See the reaction of the crowd. Su Wen couldn't help but smile in his heart. As she said before, it is too unconvincing to talk about the efficacy at this time, and it pales in any way. Only after the smallpox plague actually broke out. They will understand how ungodly the effect of cowpox is, and then nothing needs to be explained.

After being silent for a moment, after everyone digested what they had just said, Su Wen then said indifferently: "Today you are going to various places in the capital to help the people vaccinate with cowpox, I think the vaccination work will definitely not go too smoothly, I hope you will not be discouraged." ”

Having said that, Su Wen felt that there was nothing worth talking about. She originally prepared a lot of extremely inflammatory speeches, but because of the appearance of that rumor, she could only suppress them all in her heart. She did not continue to delay time, so she disbanded the mobilization meeting and sent everyone to various places in the capital.

In order to facilitate vaccinia, Suwen divided the capital into many small areas. Each small area has a colony, and each colony has two or three apprentices who are responsible for the vaccination.

After the meeting was dissolved, Su Wen directly followed the young man with a clear voice to the stronghold he was in charge of. Her task today is to patrol the various bases and respond to any problems that arise during the vaccination work. Anyway, she was patrolling everywhere, so she decided to go to the boy's stronghold first to take a look, and if there were any problems, she could solve them directly.

After arriving at the base, Su Wen was disappointed to see that there were not many people waiting to be vaccinated with cowpox. She hurriedly counted them, and found that there were only about twenty or thirty people, which was much less than expected.

Frowning, Su Wen turned to the young man and asked, "How many people are there in this area, do you have a spectrum in your heart?" Now there are only twenty or thirty people waiting to be vaccinated with cowpox, according to this trend, how many adults can be vaccinated with cowpox in the end? You have to master all this data, do you know it all? ”

In the face of Su Wen's inquiry, the teenager immediately gave a satisfactory answer. They have conducted previous surveys and have a clear understanding of the area they are responsible for.

Under Su Wen's watchful eye, the work of vaccinating cowpox kicked off. Through the previous practice of inoculating the subordinates of the Hongfu and the Yongning Hou Mansion with cowpox, they have already accumulated enough experience. In the face of the anxious and nervous people, they showed a very professional side and coped with various situations with ease.

After seeing a few cases of vaccination, Su Wen immediately put his mind at ease. According to the current form, as long as they don't encounter special circumstances, they should be able to deal with it easily.

Seeing that the apprentices were fine, Su Wen turned his attention to the people who came to be vaccinated. She knew what the people who didn't come thought, but she didn't know what the people who insisted on coming to get vaccinated thought about it. She had a question in her heart, and when she took the initiative to talk to the people waiting in line to get vaccinated with cowpox.

At first, Su Wen did not take the initiative to mention the topic of why he came to vaccinate for cowpox. She first asked them how long they had been waiting here, and was surprised to hear the answer that they had come to wait before dawn.

To be honest, Su Wen was secretly surprised by such an answer. She thought that due to the influence of yesterday's rumor, the people's enthusiasm for vaccination would be reduced a lot, but she did not expect that there would still be people who would come to get vaccinated before dawn. Without any hesitation, she immediately asked why she had come so early.

was asked by her, and the people in line showed an embarrassed look before answering. It turned out that the reason why he came so early was actually influenced by the surrounding neighbors, and he came with an attitude of believing it rather than believing it.

In this man's words, there is no good way to prevent smallpox anyway. Instead of refusing vaccinia altogether, they might as well give it a try. Even if it turns out to be ineffective, they are just the same. Besides, so many big names have been vaccinated, what reason do they have to resist?

Listening to this person's answer, Su Wen showed a thoughtful expression. She felt that the man's neighbor was right, and that there was no good way to prevent smallpox anyway, so instead of resisting it completely, it was better to get vaccinated and give it a try.

Finding a reason to convince the people to vaccinate against cowpox, Su Wen turned around and told the boy directly. If they meet someone who is hesitant, they can use this passage to persuade them. This time, there is no money for vaccinia, and there are medicinal materials distributed after vaccination. No matter how you calculate it, this is a sure deal for the people.

After explaining the young man's words, Su Wen took Xing'er to the next stronghold. Taking advantage of the convenience of inspecting everywhere, she thought that she could spread the words of persuasion as much as possible.

To be honest, although Su Wen is not the kind of person with a good heart, he is not completely cold-blooded and ruthless. Now that there is such an opportunity to save more people, why wouldn't she do it? As long as one person can listen to these words, she will be Manchu. In this kind of situation where the mountain rain is about to come, it is one that can save one.

It took half a day for Su Wen to inspect all the bases. With their previous training, these apprentices have performed very well and have not encountered too many complicated problems.

After the first round of inspections, Suwen did not follow up with the second round of inspections. She has a lot of things to do besides vaccinating her, and this time is being used to deal with these equally important things. If smallpox really breaks out, the entire capital will inevitably enter a state of tension, and all kinds of medical resources will become scarce.

Taking advantage of this time, Su Wen went to inspect the medicinal materials purchased by the prince's subordinates. These herbs are life-threatening and must not be mixed with any counterfeit or shoddy products, so she must personally examine them one by one.

At dusk, Su Wen finally completed the acceptance of the medicinal materials. She didn't have time to rest, and went straight to the camp where the apprentices had gathered. At the end of the day, she needs to listen to their reports and record the number of people who have been vaccinated against vaccinia as a reference for epidemic prevention.

By the time Su Wen arrived, someone had already counted the number of people who had been vaccinated that day. She took a look and saw that only tens of thousands of people had been vaccinated that day, less than two-tenths of the percentage.

Knowing such a ratio, Su Wen was a little difficult. If the vaccination rate is not increased, the effectiveness of the defense will be greatly reduced. In this way, the casualties of the people in the capital could not be controlled in a small area. As the person in charge of this epidemic prevention work, she really can't accept such a result.

After thinking about it for a while, Su Wen asked the apprentices how they felt, trying to find the crux of the problem from their answers. She listened to their introductions, and she couldn't help but feel a deep powerlessness in her heart.

Listening to what these apprentices said, it's good to have so many people vaccinated now. If it weren't for Su Wen's words in mind, the vaccination rate would have been even lower than what was presented in front of them. (To be continued......)
