Chapter Ninety-Nine: The Secret Is Unspeakable
Liu Xiuer was stunned, what does this mean?
Liu Xiu'er groaned slightly, searching for the treatment of plague by her predecessors in her mind, and suddenly thought that a medical book had recorded it.
With a flash of light, he quickly bowed down and said:
Xiu'er remembered that a medical book once had a good prescription for the treatment of the plague, using nine sections of calamus and silver stamen for two cents, silver stamen six coins, decoction of a cup of water, first one-third, two-thirds into honey and then take it. The name of the good prescription is silver honey safe drink, but there is no epidemic infection. ”
Zhou Heng was stunned, this recipe is very familiar, it seems to be very similar to what Liang Daqiao recorded in "Dialectical Truth", it seems that the cognition of plague in Chinese medicine is similar.
Sure enough, after Liu Xiu'er finished speaking, Dr. Qu behind him kept nodding, obviously he also recognized this recipe very much, but for the plague, the modern isolation method is the most effective, and there is no second.
Zhou Heng shook his head slightly, stared at Liu Xiu'er and said:
"I have a lot of good recipes you mentioned, among which the White Tiger Plus Ginseng Soup and the Detoxification and Blood Revitalization Soup have been pushed to follow, and according to the ancient records, they can cure the plague, but what is the actual situation? Do you know how many people can be saved with this treatment? ”
Liu Xiuer was stunned, these were not recorded in the medical books, and she couldn't answer.
"This ......"
Zhou Heng continued without a pause:
"Also, do you know how many taels of silver are needed for such a prescription? How many decoctions can heal? How much does the treatment cost for a person? ”
Dr. Qu was also stunned, and there were only a few good remedies for the plague for many years.
And they are all expensive prescriptions, one person needs at least fifteen or sixteen pairs of medicine, which will cost at least seventeen or eighteen taels of silver, if each person takes it, 10,000 yuan and 200,000 silver.
After calculating this number, Dr. Qu was frightened by himself.
Is it still wrong not to let the living burn to death and actively heal?
With questions, Dr. Qu looked at Zhou Heng.
Zhou Heng raised his hand, interrupted what Liu Xiu'er wanted to argue, and then said:
"Let me tell you, these so-called effective drugs, can treat 12 out of 10 is already the limit, and the patients treated must be the initial infection, or as an epidemic prevention application, such as the old and young women and children, can only be resigned to fate, the cost of treatment is about twenty taels per person, and we can't take out the silver and medicinal materials alone."
Zhou Heng grabbed Liu Xiu'er's sleeve and directly pushed her down in front of the ward door of the isolation room.
Seeing the dying little boy naked on the hospital bed, Liu Xiuer wanted to turn her head, but Zhou Heng immediately said.
"Staring at him, his name is Sheng'er, he is only three years old this year, when we found him, he was already having high fever and convulsions, vomiting nonstop, and his body was full of lice, this is what a plague patient looks like, you use those painless prescriptions, you want to save them? How is this different from massacre? ”
Liu Xiu'er was a little weak, Chun Tao had already come over, but she didn't dare to speak more, she understood what Zhou Heng said, she wanted to make Miss retreat, this is the best, Chun Tao didn't make a sound, just supported Liu Xiu'er on one side.
Zhou Heng let go of Liu Xiu'er's arm and motioned for Aunt Zhang to go in and dress Sheng'er.
Several people walked to the position where Dr. Qu was standing, Zhou Heng gave Dr. Qu a salute, the two were three steps away, Zhou Heng stood still, Liu Xiuer followed behind Zhou Heng, hanging her head slightly, as if she was not lightly hit.
Doctor Qu can see clearly, and he also knows Zhou Heng's intentions, regarding the treatment of patients, this Doctor Zhou always seems to be able to find another way, he clenched his fists and asked:
"According to Dr. Zhou, what is the way to treat most of the patients who have plague?"
Zhou Heng looked at Dr. Qu, and Liu Xiuer raised her eyes to look at Zhou Heng.
"Epidemic prevention and epidemic prevention are focused on prevention, and among these displaced people, some are healthy, some are sick, and some have been in contact with patients."
Zhou Heng paused, and then said:
"What we have to do is disinfect everybody, isolate everyone from the plague virus, and then do a preliminary screening for high fever, yellow eyes, injuries and, most importantly, lice. Then send the sick person to the resettlement area for resettlement, and those with high fever will be sent to the isolation area for treatment, and those who are in close contact with the sick person, or some people with a slight cough and fever, who are difficult to distinguish, will be sent to the observation area for observation, and after seven days, they can be sent to the resettlement area if they are fine, and if there is a problem, they will be treated in the isolation area in time. ”
Zhou Heng said very generally, but the framework of the entire arrangement can be regarded as clear.
This is part of the modern infectious disease emergency treatment plan, although it is only a few words, but it is all the most important method, all infectious diseases, the most important method is isolation, there is no one.
Liu Xiuer didn't have the entanglement just now, she really didn't understand this.
Doctor Qu didn't speak, and his mind was rehearsing Zhou Heng's thoughts over and over again.
After all, they have lived for decades and experienced a lot of things, and all the plagues from childhood to old age were left unattended in most places, or the city gates were closed, leaving these homeless people to fend for themselves.
When the people are almost dead, open the city gates.
Send people out and throw all the corpses or those who are not dead in a big pit and burn them, although the method is cruel, but the people in the city can save their lives.
Magistrates in some towns felt that this was cruel and decided to let the victims in, or to hold disaster relief as in Qingping County.
It was a good thing, but gradually the plague was rampant, and both the victims and the people in the city died in large numbers.
In the end, it had to be burned using the methods of those towns.
According to Zhou Heng's theory, if the isolation is done, it seems to be really effective, and the people are managed according to these standards, and then the medicine is strictly sprayed in and out of the city, so as to protect the people who are not sick.
As for the patient, they can also get professional treatment, and some suspected ones don't need to worry too much, as long as they are well observed.
However, this Dr. Zhou does not agree with the prescriptions just now, so what method will he use, is it a secret?
Doctor Qu looked at Zhou Heng and did not rush to ask.
Obviously, Zhou Heng wanted Liu Xiu'er to hurry back to the city, in fact, this arrangement is very correct, it is not a matter of men and women, but identity, if something happens to her, Qingping County will be in chaos.
Zhou Heng sighed, it seemed that his words were a little heavy, but he definitely couldn't let her stay here, if there was a mistake, let alone Liu Renli, he couldn't even pass this level, and said to Ah Chang:
"Ah Chang drove Xiu'er and Chun Tao back, Xiu'er, your task is to study at the moment, your injuries have only healed, and you can't resist such a disease, if you feel that you can't learn in the past two days, then follow Ah Chang and Mingyu, learn to count the patient's situation, and make data tables according to the method I taught them, what you can is the real help, do you understand?"
Liu Xiu'er raised her head, and to Zhou Heng's surprise, she didn't cry when she reprimanded Liu Xiu'er like this.
If in the future life, if the little nurse was criticized like this, he would have hugged his head and cried, and the next day he would be transferred to the department, and the head nurse would chase after the back of the ass for half a month.
Liu Xiu'er hurriedly gave a salute, interrupting Zhou Heng's memories for a moment.
"Xiu'er understands, just send someone casually, you don't have to ask Senior Brother Achang to send us."
Zhou Heng sighed, and said in a softer voice:
"Xiu'er, you are Lord Liu's sister, his only relative, at this moment he is all focused on disaster relief, if you have a mistake, where do you let him put the people of Qingping County? Does he still have the mood and energy to deal with this? ”
