Chapter 484: Ebola

"Boom!"

"Boom!"

……

At this moment, the sound was very violent, loud, and harsh!

I only saw that the direction that Liu Mang and his party were now ramming into, that is, relative to the wall in the south of the hall of St. Fran's Huazi Hospital, was directly knocked out of a hole that was at least the size of two red off-road vehicles!

Almost the moment the hole was knocked out, Liu Mang's whole person breathed a sigh of relief, and then directly kicked the accelerator down, so that the off-road vehicle because of the impact of the resistance, resulting in the decline of the speed directly increased again, followed by a "whoosh" rushed out of the St. Flem Chinese Hospital!

"Boom!"

"Boom!"

……

At the moment when he rushed out, Liu Mang stepped on the accelerator a few more times, and the off-road vehicle did not slow down, maintaining a high speed against the wall stones that had crashed into the back of St. Fran's Huazi Hospital, all the way into the residential area in front of him.

This residential area seems to be particularly dense, all of them are African civilians from country L infected with the disease Ramanla!

Ramanra!

It can be called Ebola, or it can be translated as Ebola virus.

It is a very rare virus in Africa, and after its existence was discovered in 1976 in the Ebola River region of southern Sudan and Congo, it attracted wide attention and attention from the medical community in various countries, and "Ebola" got its name.

This is a general term used to refer to a group of viruses belonging to the genus Ebola in the family Fibroviridae.

It is a virulent infectious disease virus that can cause Ebola haemorrhagic fever in humans and primates, and has a high mortality rate of between 50% and 90%!

The main causes of death are stroke, myocardial infarction, hypovolemic shock or multiple organ failure. Pathologic main article: Ebola hemorrhagic fever.

Ebola virus is a virulent virus that causes Ebola hemorrhagic fever in humans and primates, and the Ebola hemorrhagic fever (EBHF) caused by it is the deadliest viral hemorrhagic fever in the world today.

Ebola virus, biosafety level 4 (AIDS level 3, SARS level 3, the higher the level, the stricter the protection).

The incubation period of the virus can range from 2 to 21 days, but it is usually only 5 to 10 days.

It could almost be said that if you contract this disease, you will definitely die!

"Be careful, the residential areas here are full of Ebola patients."

All this is a long story, but in fact it happened between the lightning and flint, almost the moment when it rushed to this residential area, the female doctor reminded loudly.

"If we accidentally get infected, we will all die1"

"Ebola is still a species?" Hearing Liu Lu's reminder, Liu Mang said suspiciously while stepping on the accelerator.

He still knows a little bit about this disease!

That is, the Ramanla virus infection in the plot of Wolf Warrior 2!

The first public appearance of Ebola fever was in the village of Yabuku in the Bamba region of northern Zaire in September 1976. The first death from Ebola fever was Marbolo? Lokla, a school teacher in the mission, died on September 8. Not understanding what caused Lockra's fever, bloody diarrhea, vomiting, bleeding from his gums, nose and eyes, the nurses at the Nuns' Hospital rushed to inject him with antibiotics, chloral and vitamins, and intravenous electrolytes to treat his dehydration. In the days that followed, some of the people who had been seen in the hospital also died in their own villages, showing the same horrific symptoms. Marbolo? Shortly after Lockra's funeral, his mother, wife, and mother-in-law also fell ill. Of the 21 deaths of his family and friends, only three survived, including his wife, who was still pregnant with the baby. On 12 September, Sister Bita became the first nun to become ill with a fever, and on 19 September, a week later, Bita died.

The Ebola virus is named after a river near the village of Yabuku.

"Four subtypes of Ebola virus have been identified, namely Ebola-Zaire (EBO-Zaire), Ebola Sudan (EBO-Sudan), Ebola Reston (EBO-R) and Ebola CΓ΄te d'Ivoire (EBO-CI)." Almost the moment Liu Mang's voice fell, Dr. Chen, who was sitting in the back, suddenly said.

"Different subtypes have different properties, and EBO-Z and EBO-S are highly pathogenic and lethal to humans and non-human primates; EBO-R is non-pathogenic to humans and has a lethal effect on non-human primates; EBO-CI is significantly pathogenic to humans, but generally non-lethal and has a high lethality rate for chimpanzees. ”

As he spoke, Dr. Chen's words were abrupt and continued: "Ebola is one of a large number of mysterious and extremely dangerous African hemorrhagic viruses. These African viruses have recently burst out of their hiding places, destroying those who alarm them, and once unleashed, they are very difficult to control. In general, Ebola is unpreventable.

After evading a possible attack, the Ebola virus erodes at any other tissue or organ in the human body without discrimination, except for the bones and muscles of the bones. When the virus replicates itself into the host's blood cells, the blood cells begin to die and clot together. The clot blocks the blood vessels, cutting off the blood supply throughout the body; Dead pieces begin to appear on the infected organs. Viral proteins attack collagen, the main protein in the connective tissue of fixed organs, with its characteristic ferocity.

When collagen turns into a slurry, holes begin to appear on the surface of the organs, including the skin, and blood pours out of the holes. blood spots under the skin; Liquefied dead skin forms blisters on the surface. At this stage, all the orifices will seep blood, and the superficial diaphragms of the skin and muscles will begin to burst.

This bizarre and gruesome process continues until the virus multiplies exponentially, destroying the internal organs and rendering them completely useless and the host dead. When this happens, dead or partially dead organs begin to liquefy. Fluids like blood, feces, and vomit are filled with millions of viruses, bit by bit. ”

"Whew!"

Speaking of this, Liu Mang took a deep breath, and sighed while continuing to step on the accelerator: "This virus is really strong, according to Dr. Chen, once you are infected, you will definitely die!" ”

"Recently, we were at St. Fran's Chinese Hospital, mainly to study antibodies against the Ebola virus!"

Dr. Chen said: "I didn't expect to encounter a riot here at a critical moment! ”

As he spoke, Dr. Chen instructed: "The situation in this residential area is very complicated, it is really not possible, you can put me down, and then you go, I don't want to wait to see you die here, or accidentally infected with Ebola!" ”

"Once Ebola is infected, it bleeds from the heart inside the body and then into the surrounding cavities, causing the liver to enlarge, dehisce, and then suppurate and rot, causing the kidneys to fail, filling with dead cells and blood clots. Such a class of dead, clotted blood cells abound, including the brain, which interferes with the supply of oxygen, eventually leading to dementia and severe seizures.

At the same time, the virus destroys the clotting capacity of the remaining blood, so that the massive bleeding continues uninhibited. Alive, dead blood is expelled with dead tissue and shedding mucous membranes, including those of the stomach, mouth, and intestines, through vomiting and diarrhea. Collapsed blood vessels and intestines are no longer held together, but pour into the body cavity like fluid. Although floating in bodily fluids, the tissues themselves are dehydrated and unable to perform their functions, and the patient begins to die faster. ”
