Chapter 608: Lead by example
Wang Xu drove to the Government House, and met Wen Xueliang and Xu Qishan at the door, as well as Xiang Tianhua, a famous apricot forest expert on Hong Kong Island who he had a relationship with when he participated in the medical exchange meeting on Hong Kong Island last year.
"Hehe, Dr. Wang, we're meeting again." Xiang Tianhua saw Wang Xu, smiled very gently, and greeted Wang Xu: "Last year, I said goodbye to Hong Kong Island, and I planned to have a meal with Dr. Wang after the exchange meeting, but I didn't expect Dr. Wang to leave in a hurry, it's a pity." ”
"Xiang Lao said and laughed, it was a temporary matter at that time, and I had to leave." Wang Xu also greeted Xiang Tianhua with a smile, and at the same time, Wen Xueliang and Xu Qishan also greeted them, and several people walked while talking, and entered the protocol house together.
Along the way, Wen Xueliang and Xiang Tianhua also met many acquaintances, all of whom were well-known doctors in the medical field on Hong Kong Island or the directors of large hospitals.
Entering the reception hall of the Government House, Yin Weihua's secretary personally greeted him and beckoned a group of people into the large private room of the restaurant. In the private room, Yin Weihua and several directors of Hong Kong Island had been waiting for a long time, and when Wang Xu and a group of people entered the door, several people stood up with a smile and greeted them.
Wan Weihua and Financial Secretary Dong Yanfeng and Wang Xu have all met once, and the other two middle-aged people in their 50s are Chief Secretary for Administration Kan Chun-tung and Secretary for Justice Chan Xun-chak, and the four of them are the top chief executives of the entire Hong Kong Island.
There were a total of twelve or thirteen doctors on Wang Xu's side, and more than a dozen people sat down at the dinner table, and Yin Weihua said straight to the point: "This time, everyone must have known about the SS virus in Japan, and now we have found 2,000 suspected virus carriers on Hong Kong Island, and the form is very serious." All of you who are here this evening. They are also well-known doctors in Hong Kong, Taiwan and even the mainland, as well as the presidents of major hospitals on Hong Kong Island. This time we need to work together to get through this epidemic. ”
"The chief executive is polite, this epidemic is no less than the ** in 03 in terms of form, and each of us has an obligation to fight this disaster together." Xiang Tianhua said.
"Yes, Xiang Lao is right." The others chimed in.
"Okay, on behalf of the people of Hong Kong Island, I would like to thank you all for having dinner together tonight and discussing specific matters by the way." Yin Weihua stood up. He bowed to the crowd before he sat down and ordered the food to be served.
There were more than a dozen people at the dinner table, Wang Xu sat next to Wen Xueliang, and while he was serving, Wen Xueliang simply introduced the doctors and deans sitting at the dinner table to Wang Xu.
After listening to Wen Xueliang's introduction, Wang Xu knew that the people who came forward tonight were basically the directors of private hospitals on Hong Kong Island and some famous doctors with unofficial identities, official doctors and public hospitals, Yin Weihua naturally didn't need to be so troublesome. Naturally, the island's health department is in charge, but these private hospitals and unofficial doctors. It cannot be ignored on Hong Kong Island, and Yin Weihua personally invited everyone to come.
After eating, a group of people entered the spacious tea room on the side, and discussed the details in detail, led by the Hong Kong Island government, temporarily formed two anti-epidemic medical teams, these people who came forward tonight were a group, Xiang Tianhua and Wen Xueliang were the team leaders, and the health department and public hospitals on Hong Kong Island were a group to form two fronts to jointly resist the plague this time.
After coming out of the Government House, Wang Xu was pulled by Wen Xueliang to discuss some details, and when he returned to the Conrad Hotel, it was already eleven o'clock in the evening.
Wang Xu is young, and he is not a native of Hong Kong and Taiwan, he is only a member of the medical team and does not play any leadership role, but Wen Xueliang and Xiang Tianhua both know Wang Xu's ability, and Wang Xu's training class also has more than 30 students on Hong Kong Island, which is also a large group, so any details must be discussed with Wang Xu, which can be regarded as the importance of Wang Xu.
Early the next morning, Wang Xu had eaten breakfast and rushed to Aihua Medical Hospital, now most of the patients on Hong Kong Island are in the incubation period, even if the patients who have just begun to have abnormalities can not see anything from the symptoms for the time being, Wang Xu can only pay attention to the test results of Aihua Medical Academy first.
For three days in a row, Wang Xu was in the Aihua Medical Academy and Liang Qiuping's room in Shiyàn, while Wen Xueliang and Xiang Tianhua had been running back and forth in several major hospitals such as Conrad Hospital. Since the epidemic in Japan was completely confirmed, several major hospitals such as Queen Mary Hospital and Lijiang Hospital on Hong Kong Island have become special plague quarantine areas, and the whole people are under martial law to fight this epidemic.
After lunch at noon on the third day, Wang Xu and Liang Qiuping were about to return to the medical hospital, Wang Xu received a call from Wen Xueliang, saying that the patient had an abnormality and the virus had begun to break out gradually.
As soon as the car drove to the door of Queen Mary Hospital, Wang Xu received a call from Liang Qiuping, and the blood test results finally came out, the name of the virus is named according to the international name, called SS virus, the characteristics of the virus are somewhat similar to **, the way of infection is blood, air, and the body fluids of the infected person, the source is a mutant virus caused by nuclear radiation in Japan, there is no solution and vaccine for the time being, Liang Qiu told Wang Xu that he has sent the results over.
What needs to be added here is that in three days, the number of virus infections in the world has increased from 100,000 to more than 3 million at the same time, and the population on Hong Kong Island has also increased to 10,000. Self-inflicted.
After hanging up Liang Qiuping's phone, Wang Xu entered the hospital, went to the office where Wen Xueliang and the two were located, and told Wen Xueliang and Xiang Tianhua about the situation.
After the news of Japan was exposed, the first patient who died because of the epidemic Wang Xu and others have also been briefly understood, the incubation period of this SS virus is about ten days, ten days later, the patient began to have a fever, and gradually appeared a series of symptoms such as fatigue and weakness, limb aches, dry cough, palpitation, shortness of breath, headache and chest tightness. And finally until death. A total of twenty-five days. In other words, the first 10 days are the incubation period, and after the incubation period, from the onset of symptoms to the death of the patient, it is only 15 days.
Because there is so little time left for doctors, as of now, countries around the world are still helpless against the virus, and the number of patients who have died due to the epidemic in Japan has exceeded 1,000, and other countries have started this morning. Gradually there were patients who died from the plague.
Among the tens of thousands of people who have been examined on Hong Kong Island, the earliest patients are the few patients found by Huang Haixing, and the incubation period has passed for five days now, and there are less than ten days left.
That is to say, if no effective treatment is found within 20 days, the more than 3 million people infected with the plague may all die, and the world's population of more than 5 billion, 3 million may not be much, but in this peaceful era like this. With so many people dying, it's definitely a big panic. This does not include patients who may have a subsequent infection.
"Doctor Wen, Doctor Xiang, a new situation has arisen for the patients in Ward 36." Wang Xu and Wen Xueliang were talking in the office of the hospital, when suddenly a doctor walked in in a hurry and reported.
"Let's go, let's go and see first." Wen Xueliang hurriedly got up, Wang Xu and Xiang Tianhua were not far behind, and walked towards the inpatient department together, when they entered the inpatient department, the doctor who came to report hurriedly stopped Wang Xu and the three of them: "Doctor Wen, Doctor Xiang, Doctor Wang, you better wear isolation gowns, lest you"
"No, if we don't have the confidence to defeat the epidemic ourselves, how can we arouse the confidence of patients." Without waiting for Wen Xueliang to open his mouth to Tianhua, Wang Xu directly refused.
"Okay, Dr. Wang said it well, if the patients see that our doctors are all protected, wouldn't they just sue them that this disease is invincible." Xiang Tianhua praised, and the three refused to wear isolation gowns and went directly to the inpatient department.
The nurses and doctors in the inpatient department were basically all in isolation suits, and they were all surprised to see Wang Xu and the three of them coming in in their own clothes, and a director of the hospital hurriedly came over to persuade them, but they were rejected by Wang Xu and Wen Xueliang again.
Hearing Wang Xu and the three of them say what they just said again, many doctors and nurses on the side were moved, and one nurse directly ripped off his isolation gown and said: "Doctor Wen and Doctor Wang said well, as doctors, if we are afraid of the plague first, then how can we defeat it." ”
Someone took the lead, and the crowd was immediately excited, and the doctors and nurses present all took off their isolation gowns one after another, revealing the white coats on their bodies, which Wen Xueliang and Wang Xu did not expect.
By the time Wang Xu and the three of them walked to ward No. 36, Wang Xu's words had spread throughout most of the hospital, and the doctors and nurses in the hospital took off their isolation gowns and wore the white coats familiar to the patients to work.
"Dr. Wang, Dr. Wen, please." The doctor who delivered the news just now also took off his isolation gown, respectfully opened the ward for Wang Xu and the three of them, invited the three of them inside, and looked at Wang Xu with admiration on his face.
Wang Xu is not very old and not very famous, this doctor doesn't even know Wang Xu's name, but what Wang Xu said when he refused to wear an isolation suit just now moved him, such a doctor is a real doctor.
Not mentioning the doctor's thoughts, Wang Xu and the three of them entered the ward, and the three patients on the three beds in the ward all hurriedly struggled to get up, and one of them, a young man of about twenty years old, looked at Wang Xu and the three of them, tears had welled up in his eyes, and he choked up: "Doctor, have we been given up, will we die, please, save us." ”
"Who said that, how could you be abandoned?" Wang Xu strode forward directly, helped the young man sit down with his back, and said softly.
"However, the nurses and doctors in the hospital are wearing isolation gowns, and I heard that this time it is an infectious disease that is even stricter than **, and there is no way to treat it now." Youth Road.
"Hehe, if there is no way to treat it, if it is an infectious disease that is stricter than **, why don't I wear an isolation gown, and those two, one is Wen Xueliang and Wen Lao, and the other is Xiang Tianhua Xiang Lao, they are both famous doctors, why don't they wear them, how are they not afraid of infection."
The young man glanced at Wang Xu, then looked at Wen Xueliang and Xiang Tianhua, and saw that Wang Xu was wearing a white coat, and opened his mouth, not knowing what to say.
"Don't worry, it's true that this disease is an infectious disease, but it won't be very strict, the reason why the doctors and nurses in the hospital wear isolation gowns is just in case, think about it, if the doctors and nurses are all sick and hospitalized, who will take care of you."
"Big brother, what you said is true." The young man looked at Wang Xu with eager eyes and asked.
"Why should I lie to you?" Wang Xu asked rhetorically, and then smiled faintly: "Okay, don't think about it, although this virus is strange, it won't be too strict, you can't think about it yourself first." ”
"I see, big brother, thank you, you're a good doctor." The young man reached out and wiped the tears from the corners of his eyes, and said gratefully.
Wen Xueliang and Xiang Tianhua stood on the side, listening to Wang Xu comforting the sick young man, subconsciously glanced at each other, and saw the shock in each other's eyes, Wang Xu's words are really right, the doctor leads by example, the patient will not be cranky, try to think about it, if Wang Xu and them came in in isolation gowns just now, the patient would not believe Wang Xu's words so lightly
