Chapter 54: Building a Medical School?

After talking to Emma, John breathed a sigh of relief.

Although he and Emma both knew that their relationship could not be as close as it used to be, John knew that this was the best outcome. After all, he only has brother and sister affection for Emma, and he has no meaning of men and women at all, and it is not bad to be ordinary friends.

The twenty-fourth birthday party suddenly became complete.

After a busy day and seeing off all the guests, the family was relieved. Naturally, Hans was busy with a few servants, and the two capitalists, one old and one young, went upstairs to rest leisurely......

The next morning, everyone began to work on their own business again.

After going to the hospital for a half-day outpatient visit, John's mood suddenly became very good. Perhaps because the power of the half-price drug is too great, or perhaps because the operation that can safely "open the stomach" has surprised the average New Yorker, and then began to trust the doctors at Heinz General Hospital in Europe, in short, since April, the number of outpatient visits began to increase rapidly, stabilizing at nearly 200 people.

This number can be said to be quite amazing!

This year cannot be compared with the 21st century, first of all, the sanitary conditions are extremely poor, for example, the use rate of tap water itself is not high, and disinfection technology has not been used, so the incidence of various diseases is very high; Secondly, because of economic factors, the average person has the problem of malnutrition more or less, so even if the average life expectancy of European and American countries is only forty or fifty years old, the number of sick people is naturally even more. It's just for most people. It is a very real problem to work hard for only one dollar a day, and to rent a house to support the family, and to look down on the doctor. Just like the poor in the Third World countries a hundred years from now.

The daily outpatient volume of 200 people is already very impressive!

However, John also knows that most of this figure is due to the attraction of half-price drugs, and no one can say what it will be like when the time comes in three months. So after lunch, John chatted with Aiken, who was in charge of the vitamin program, and cleared some of their questions, and then called Ehrlich from the lab. I gave the other party what I had spent two weeks writing out.

"You can take a look at it first, Mr. Ehrlich."

Facing a curious Ehrlich, John said indifferently: "This is some simple thoughts on attenuated vaccines. and some wild imaginations...... I hope you'll read this stuff first, and then we'll talk about it in a week, okay? ”

"Of course!"

After a brief turn of two pages, Ehrlich's eyes lit up.

I just saw the first two pages of the overview. Ehrlich's heart immediately pounded violently. From the point of view of the history of immunology development. Both Pasteur and Koch are undoubtedly the real masters of this era, but because of the limitations of the times, their research and experimentation are still in a very rudimentary stage after all, and they are more of an empirical research, and have not formed a real system. In very general terms, John defines these studies in the first two pages of the text: the simplest thing in any later textbook.

It's like these things that opened a door for Ehrlich!

It's hard to describe the shock Ehrlich had when he saw these things. Although John has made it clear that these things are just his "fantasies", he already has a certain foundation of Ehrlich instinctively feels. The value of these "fantastic" theories!

"Thank you, sir."

It was simply subconscious, Ehrlich used honorifics to John again, and immediately stood up and said in a deep voice: "I'll go back and study it right away, and in a week's time...... No, give me two weeks! I'll be looking for you in two weeks! ”

"Okay, there you go."

John was very satisfied with Ehrlich's attitude, nodded and smiled.

This material is actually not much, that is, thirty or forty pages, after all, it is impossible for John to come up with too many theories at once. But these things contain a huge amount of information, including many research results in the next thirty or forty years, and more importantly, it is a truly systematic theory! If it only takes half a day to read it, but Ehrlich still says that two weeks is to give himself enough time to think, and this rigorous and serious attitude undoubtedly makes John extremely satisfied.

After less than ten minutes in John's office, Ehrlich left.

"It won't be long before we can set up the relevant laboratories."

After Ehrlich left, John secretly thought about his future plans.

Modern medicine in this era has not yet formed a complete system, and what has really begun to develop is nothing more than a few disciplines such as anatomy and physiology, so there are so many things that John can do, not only immunology, but also pathology, pathophysiology, and even basic disciplines such as biochemistry, which are just beginning to start. It's just that because the current foundation is too weak, it is impossible for him to show too much exaggeration by himself, so for the time being, he will focus on the clinical field, especially the surgical field, and the real explosive development can only wait for the development of Heinz General Hospital, or even the future medical school......

Thinking of this, John simply called Miss Brown over: "Miss Brown, please ask Mr. Thomas to come here." ”

"Yes, sir."

Miss Brown nodded, and immediately turned away.

Although with John's insistence and financial investment, a telephone was installed on every floor of the hospital, and there was one in John's office, but it was generally not liked to be used. The point is that the phone in these years is too troublesome to use, and it is not as convenient as running up and down to find someone directly.

In a few moments, Thomas walked into John's office.

"Is there something wrong with me? John. ”

With a little doubt, Thomas said with some puzzlement: "I'm going to go to the ward in ten minutes, I'm afraid I can't stay with you for too long." ”

"Haha, five minutes is enough."

Hearing Thomas say this, John immediately dismissed the idea of asking Miss Brown to prepare coffee for him, stood up with a smile and said, "It's still an idea I told you before, I think it's a little early now, but I can start thinking about it." ”

"What thoughts?"

Hearing this, Thomas was slightly stunned, and Thomas hurriedly asked.

"School, of course!"

Shrugging his shoulders, John smiled and said, "Thomas, you also know that I built a teaching building in the hospital, and you said that we should start preparations now, how about building a medical school in three years?" (To be continued......)
