Chapter 259: How Difficult to Prosper the Country

readx; Due to the "unclear situation," the Standing Committee of the Provincial Party Committee, which was convened overnight, did not take any effective measures except to ask the Provincial Health Department to take the lead in dispatching elite soldiers from the Provincial Medical University, the Provincial First Hospital, the Provincial Second Hospital, and the Jiangcheng People's Hospital to form an expert group for the prevention and control of infectious diseases, and to order the health administrative departments at all levels to investigate the patients who had recently been admitted to the major hospitals in the province. Pen? Interesting? Pavilion wWw. biquge。 info

What made Dr. Tian laugh and cry was that he was still on the list of the leading group for the prevention and control of "[***] pneumonia" led by Director Wang of the Provincial Department of Health, and he also had a position...... He is known as the "senior adviser of the leading group".

Looking at the red-headed document sent by Governor Ding's secretary, Tian Wenjian really didn't know what to say. After all, the SARS virus is too far away for Jiangcheng, which is singing and dancing, and perhaps even the senior officials of the Department of Health have never heard of this unprecedented virus that is raging in Hong Kong.

"Professor Tian, the office of the leading group is located in the Department of Health, and I will send you there now. As for Jiang Da's side...... You can rest assured that after the Standing Committee meeting last night, Governor Ding and Vice Governor Zhao respectively greeted Director Chen of the Department of Philosophy. ”

There is something in the words of the second secretary of J province!

Only then did Dr. Tian Da realize that the leadership of the provincial party committee is by no means as simple as asking himself to participate in any "leading group". To put it bluntly, stability is overriding everything, for fear that he will talk nonsense everywhere regardless of the overall situation, and then cause unnecessary panic.

Thinking of this, Tian Wenjian nodded helplessly, and while packing up his laptop, he said casually: "Secretary Wang, can I go back and get a few clothes on the way?" You see, I've been wearing this for a few days, so it's not good to pass like this. ”

Secretary Wang smiled, with a harmless expression on his face, and said slowly: "Professor Tian, you are the senior adviser of the leading group appointed by Governor Ding, and you enjoy the treatment of experts, and the Department of Clothing, Food, Housing and Transportation is prepared, so you don't need to be so troublesome." ”

Compared with the tense atmosphere during the HIV infection incident four years ago, this time the provincial party committee and provincial government axe are still face-saving, at least they did not "keep" their mobile phones on their behalf, let alone require themselves to keep them strictly confidential.

Tian Wenjian nodded with a wry smile, twisted the computer bag helplessly, and followed Wang Daji out of room 2808 of Jiangcheng Hotel.

The office of the leading group for prevention and control is not located in the compound of the Provincial Health Department, as Secretary Wang said, but in the training center for cadres of the Department of Health in the suburbs. It was already nine o'clock in the morning when I arrived at the training center, which was a little more like a resort.

Director Wang is in the multi-functional conference room on the third floor, conveying the spirit of the instructions of the leaders of the provincial party committee to the members of the expert group drawn from the provincial medical university and major hospitals. Seeing Dr. Tian Da, who was wearing a casual suit, walked in under the leadership of Secretary Wang, Director Wang immediately greeted everyone, and then walked up quickly, holding Secretary Wang's hand to welcome.

Wang Da's secretary can be a confidant of the governor, and Tian Wenjian has long been surprised by Director Wang's noisy behavior. Just as he was wondering whether to go in and find a place to sit down, he saw Secretary Wang turn around and introduce with a smile: "Director Wang, hand over Professor Tian to you, and my task will be completed." You are busy first, I have to go to the airport to accompany Governor Ding to the capital. ”

For the young man next to him, Director Wang is no stranger. From the perspective of chance, it was Tian Wenjian's Air Force Hospital that uncovered the dark curtain of the pulp supplier infected with the HIV virus, which led to the dismissal of the former director, and he was able to transfer from Lu Province to J Province to take up the current position of director of the Department of Health.

Secretary Wang wants to leave, and it is too rude not to send it. Dr. Tian Da, an uninvited guest, waited aside, and couldn't say anything without saying hello. Just when he was in a dilemma, Secretary Wang glanced at the experts whispering in the conference room, and said with a smile: "Director Wang, you are the main battlefield of [***] prevention and control here, I won't disturb you, and I will leave." ”

Seeing Secretary Wang walking down the stairs briskly without looking back, Director Wang reacted, clasped Tian Wenjian's right hand, and said with a smile: "Professor Tian, on behalf of the Department of Health, I warmly welcome you, let's go to the meeting first, and then we will find a place to talk after the meeting." ”

Tian Wenjian smiled and said without self-deprecation: "Director Wang is polite, I don't dare to get an axe in front of you." ”

How strong the destructive power of the person in front of him is, others don't know, but Director Wang still knows it. Seeing that Tian Wenjian was polite, he took his hand and walked into the conference room, and introduced it to everyone enthusiastically.

Doctors of Philosophy plunged into the pile of Doctors of Medicine, and there was an uproar in the conference room. After learning that the person in front of him, who had served as the director of Longjiang Air Force Hospital and was diagnosed with the first case of HIV infection in Province J, experts in the medical field realized that Dr. Tian Da, a young and excessive professor, was by no means a fuel-efficient lamp.

“…… Judging from the materials provided by Professor Tian, the incubation period of SARS virus is usually limited to 2 weeks, generally about 2~10 days. Fever is often the first and main symptom, the body temperature is generally higher than 38C, and the surname is often persistent, and the surname is often accompanied by chills, muscle aches, joint aches, headache and fatigue. Antipyretics are effective in the early stages, but in the advanced phase, hyperthermia is often difficult to control with antipyretics, and the use of glucocorticoids can interfere with the febrile type. ”

Before Director Wang finished speaking, an old professor with gray hair suddenly frowned, and couldn't help but say, "Director Wang, this is too general, right?" ”

Until there are no clinical cases, it is undoubtedly rhetoric on paper to say this. Director Wang pondered for a moment, nodded heavily, and then said: "In addition, the respiratory system also has symptoms, such as cough, mostly dry cough and little phlegm, and a small number of patients have sore throat, often without upper respiratory tract catarrhal symptoms. There may be chest tightness, and in severe cases, rapid breathing, shortness of breath and even respiratory distress, dyspnea and hypoxemia may occur, which is more common after 6~12 days of onset.

Some patients also experience gastrointestinal symptoms such as diarrhea, nausea, and vomiting. Pulmonary signs are not obvious, and some patients may have a few crackles, or signs of pulmonary consolidation, occasional local turbidity, decreased breath sounds, and other signs of a small pleural effusion......"

More than 20 experts and professors put down their pens and papers, exchanged their heads and ears, and whispered. Seeing that everyone was not satisfied with these specious symptoms, Tian Wenjian couldn't help but stand up and said solemnly: "Seniors in the medical field, I know that these studies on the SARS virus alone do not have much effect. But for us now, the prevention and control of the virus is the first priority.

In addition, I would like to say that in order to sum up the above symptoms, your colleagues in Hong Kong have given several precious lives. At this moment, in the field of clinical diagnosis and treatment in the hospital, in the laboratory of the research institute, Hong Kong's medical experts and researchers are working day and night, fighting hard to start a life-and-death race against the [***] virus. ”

Looking at the worried faces of the experts, Tian Wenjian took out a stack of materials from his computer bag and distributed them to everyone, while continuing to say: "At the beginning of the epidemic, the Chinese University of Hong Kong established an interdisciplinary research team to jointly tackle key problems. More than 20 researchers work in two shifts 24 hours a day, day and night.

This is a partial sequence of the genetic code of the coronavirus that they cracked and presented to the World Health Organization, and I think it should be helpful to you in your research. In addition, it is said that they have developed a rapid serum test that can accurately diagnose whether an infection is within 1 hour; All in all, the Hong Kong Department of Health is open and transparent in its research on the virus, and you can contact them for the first time. ”

"There are more than 30,000 codes of coronavirus genes, and they have cracked more than 5,000 in such a short period of time, including the crown protein gene on the surface of the virus, which is too rare and valuable for research." A middle-aged professor stood up, pointing to the materials in his hand with an incredulous expression.

Before Tian Wenjian could speak, Deputy Director Li said thoughtfully: "Since Hong Kong has made some achievements in virus prevention and control and research, then we will set up a special team to fly directly to Hong Kong to learn from them, and by the way, see what we can do." ”

Seeing the experts and professors staring at him in unison, Director Wang weighed it, then nodded and said, "This is a way of thinking, but it is not suitable to be empty-handed in the past." Such...... After the meeting was dismissed, the Foreign Affairs Office was asked to get in touch with the Hong Kong side to see what medicines they urgently needed now, and to allocate a little special fund, which would be regarded as paying for tuition. ”

With the experience of HIV infection, the Health Department of J Province does not dare to slack off on this issue, and its attention is incomparable to that of the provincial party committee and its counterparts in brother provinces. Director Wang's proposal was unanimously supported by everyone. In the next hour or so, the members of the expert group were divided into 12 groups, except for the six who were going to Hong Kong to learn from the experience, and the rest of the people were divided into 12 groups to go to various cities in J Province to assist the local health departments and investigate the patients who had recently been admitted to the people's hospitals at all levels.

A layman can't do an insider's job, but he can't talk about doing nothing, so Dr. Tian Da, who has nothing to do, simply becomes a liaison, keeping in touch with the Hong Kong Department of Health and the World Health Organization through the Internet, and collecting and translating the latest epidemic bulletins.

At 12 o'clock at noon, as soon as Tian Wenjian and other left-behind personnel put down the fast food box sent by the logistics department of the training center, Ji Changkun, vice governor in charge of medical and health care, rushed over, and after cordially expressing his condolences, he inquired about the progress of the work of the leading group.

At the beginning of the investigation, how can the news feedback from various cities be so fast? Tian Wenjian was so made by Vice Governor Ji's question that he had to point to the red phone on his desk, shook his head and said, "So far, no suspected cases have been found. Please rest assured Vice Governor Ji, Director Wang has already explained, and we will report to you as soon as there is news. ”

Vice Governor Ji nodded, lit a cigarette, and said lightly: "No news, it's good news." To put it mildly, I hope that what you are doing is useless. ”

There is nothing that cannot be without money, and there is nothing that cannot be sick, and this principle also applies to the newly established Provincial Health Department's "[***] type pneumonia" prevention and control leading group. Tian Wenjian sighed and said thoughtfully: "Yes, we don't want to see that kind of situation either." ”

"Okay, you guys are busy first, and report any situation in time."

Afraid of something, Vice Governor Ji just stood up, the red phone on the desk suddenly rang, and the voice was so harsh that everyone in the conference room was terrified.

Six telephones were lined up on a large desk, and the red one was the pre-agreed emergency line. Deputy Director Li's face turned pale, and beads of sweat as big as soybeans oozed from his forehead. Looking at his mournful appearance, Vice Governor Ji glared at him fiercely, and a word popped out from between his teeth: "Pick up!" ”

"I ...... I...... I'm Li Dongsheng, where is it? Deputy Director Li hurriedly clipped the phone to his ear and hurriedly took the pen and paper handed by Tian Wenjian. Everyone put down their work in unison, held their breath one by one, and stared at Deputy Director Li.

The terrible thing still happened, just two hours after the investigation, the Second People's Hospital of Jiangcheng City found a suspected case of pneumonia with the surname [***]!

Deputy Director Li grabbed the phone record in his hand and solemnly reported: "The suspected case is a man with a male surname, 67 years old this year, from Beijing. The afternoon before yesterday, I came to our province with a tour group in the capital, and during the trip, I had respiratory tract infection and fever symptoms, and was sent to the city's second doctor for diagnosis and treatment at 8 o'clock last night.

An hour ago, the provincial and municipal health departments and the newly formed expert group carefully consulted the patient and confirmed that it was a suspected case of pneumonia type [***]. Director Wang is leading other experts to the Second Municipal Hospital to prepare for further monitoring and treatment of the patient. It is also prepared to take strict medical observation and protective measures for those who have been in close contact with the patient, as well as disinfect relevant places. ”

"From the capital?"

Hong Kong is the hardest hit area of the [***] epidemic, and although there has been no notification of this in the South China Sea so far, everyone knows whether there are [***] patients in the South China Sea. The epidemic is in the south, but the suspected patient is from the capital, and there is no doubt that Vice Governor Ji is still lucky about this.

Tian Wenjian was not so optimistic, and couldn't help but remind in a low voice: "Vice Governor Ji, the investigation has only been going on for more than two hours. ”

One case was found in more than two hours, so how many will be found in two days? You must know that the person in front of him was diagnosed with only three cases of HIV infection four years ago, but in the subsequent screening, thousands of people with HIV virus were detected.

Realizing the seriousness of the problem, Vice Governor Ji suddenly turned around, pointed at the nervous Deputy Director Li, and said coldly: "I will report to Secretary Miao and Governor Ding now, and you must also report this matter to the Ministry of Health quickly." Other than that...... Those who have had close contact with suspected patients should be quarantined immediately to prevent the virus from spreading further, and the public security department can be asked to cooperate if necessary. ”

"Yes!"

At 4 o'clock in the afternoon, two doctors and a nurse in the ward of the Second Municipal Hospital had symptoms of fever and upper respiratory tract infection. On April 1, 2003, when Western countries were celebrating April Fool's Day, Province J officially unveiled the battle veil against [***].

Dr. Tian Da's "[***] Leading Group for Prevention and Control" was also rapidly upgraded to a leading group headed by Secretary Miao of the Provincial Party Committee and Governor Ding. However, in view of the fact that the central government has not yet issued clear instructions, and there have been no major moves in the brother provinces, the provincial party committee and the provincial government have not made the epidemic public, but have made various preparations intensively, and canceled the J Province International Arts Festival scheduled to be held on April 5.

At the same time, television, radio, newspapers and other media, under the guidance of the Propaganda Department of the Provincial Party Committee, began to report sporadically about the news and publicize a series of prevention and control measures to the people of the province.

However, the preparations were not all smooth sailing, and when the Ministry of Health paid attention to the drugs for virus prevention and control, it found that many of the drugs of the pharmaceutical companies in the province had already been purchased by the southern provinces. There are even some dealers who have made a lot of money to raise the prices of drugs and medical supplies such as banlangen, 84 disinfectant, masks, etc., and even worse, they are shoddy and fake.

In order to prevent and control the virus and not cause panic among the people, the provincial party committee and the provincial government axe simply asked the health, drug supervision, industry and commerce, taxation and public security departments to come up with a special action to control the drug market.

At the same time, at the request of the provincial party committee and the provincial political axe, various cities have also carried out a large-scale anti-pornography and anti-illegal activities. The change of direction ordered song halls, baths, billiard halls, game halls, Internet cafes and other entertainment venues and public places to suspend business for rectification, and prevent the spread of the SARS virus as much as possible without affecting stability.

On April 4, Tian Wenjian was entrusted by Director Wang and Deputy Director Li, who were on the front line of the fight against [***], to rush to the provincial political axe and report to Governor Ding Haonan, who had just returned to Jiangcheng, on the investigation of the health authorities at all levels.

Ding Haonan, who was holding the governor's office meeting, simply asked Secretary Wang to take Tian Wenjian to the small conference room on the third floor to report to the seven vice governors, including Zhao Weiming.

"Professor Tian, I have to go to the Standing Committee of the Provincial Party Committee in a while, the time is urgent, so you don't have to be so polite." Seeing that Tian Wenjian was about to say hello to everyone, Ding Haonan waved and said with a contemplative face.

"Yes."

Tian Wenjian nodded, took out a stack of documents from his briefcase, and asked Secretary Wang to distribute them to everyone, while introducing solemnly: "Since the discovery of a suspected case on April 1, a second case of suspected patients with imported surnames was found the next day. The suspected patient of type [***] pneumonia is a 30-year-old farmer surnamed Longjiang County, Longjiang City. After returning home from the capital for three days, he had a fever and cough, and was sent to the county people's hospital by his family for diagnosis and treatment. It was confirmed as a suspected case of pneumonia [***] after consultation by the provincial and municipal expert groups.

At present, the patient has been transferred to the provincial [***] centralized treatment center, and is receiving further monitoring and treatment by the expert group, and his condition is basically stable. The health department of Longjiang City has carried out follow-up investigation and isolation medical observation of those who have been in close contact with the patient, and has also thoroughly disinfected the relevant places. ”

Speaking of this, Tian Wenjian's words changed and said worriedly: "In order to ensure that in case, Director Wang entrusted me to suggest that the provincial party committee and the provincial government axe to investigate the patient at 11:00 a.m. on March 30 by taking the capital to Longjiang at Lizeqiao Station in Beijing, with the train number Beijing A95874. ”

This is not a little bit difficult, after all, the passenger car does not adopt the real-name system like the airplane, and it is undoubtedly a needle in a haystack to find the passengers in the same car. Governor Ding quickly recorded it in his notebook, then looked up and said, "Go on, keep talking." ”

"The two suspected cases with imported surnames found on the 3rd are also from Beijing. One is a 35-year-old Taitung woman who lives in Beijing, who returned to Jiangcheng in a private car on April 3, and went directly to the outpatient clinic of the provincial first hospital when she felt unwell, and was immediately transferred to the isolation ward of a designated hospital for treatment......"

As of 9:25 a.m. today, 14 suspected cases and clinically diagnosed cases have been found in the province, including 5 clinically diagnosed cases and 9 suspected cases. The Center for Disease Control and Prevention of the Department of Health and experts from various units involved in the investigation agreed that our province has entered the first peak period of the disease. ”

Tian Wenjian had just finished his report, and before he could leave the small conference room, Governor Ding Haonan looked around at everyone and said heavily: "There are so many suspected cases, and there are clinically diagnosed cases, we can't be alone anymore." Comrades, the time has come to make up your mind. ”

The vice governor of the Standing Committee nodded heavily, and said expressionlessly: "On this issue, the front-line medical staff are our examples, they disregard their personal safety, do their duty, save lives and help the wounded, and some even sacrifice their precious lives. I believe that as long as our measures are appropriate, the people will be as united as the people of Hong Kong as never before, and will understand, trust and support the anti-epidemic measures of the political axe. ”

"How difficult it is to prosper the country, the more difficult it is, the more we must unite."

Three days ago, the expert group prepared a set of prevention and control plans for the provincial party committee and provincial government, but because it was too wide-ranging, too many departments were involved, and too much investment, it would even affect the economic development of the whole province. Provincial leaders have been hesitant to implement it rashly.

Seeing Governor Ding and others say this, Tian Wenjian realized that there was going to be a big move in the province, and the big stone in his heart fell.
