Chapter 1070: Dare to be the first in the world

"Did you hear that Li Chao was going to give his children cowpox, saying that after receiving cowpox, he would no longer be afraid of smallpox. Pen? Interesting? Pavilion wWw. biquge。 info" Li Shimin took a bowl of millet porridge from the queen's hand and said to her.

"Well, the concubine has heard about it a long time ago. It is said that Li Chao has been studying this method for three years, first on animals and then on people in the past three years, and there are no less than 100 people who have received cowpox, but none of them have ever had smallpox. In this way, it seems that this method is indeed useful. The eldest grandson added another bowl of porridge to his son Li Tai.

Li Shimin was thoughtful.

"If this pimple really works, I'm going to let the green finches get the pox too." Even in the palace, the sons and daughters of the Son of Heaven have court doctors and countless medicinal materials of heaven and earth, but once they encounter smallpox, they can only helplessly pray for God's blessing.

Good luck, into a pockmark. Bad luck and early death.

Li Shimin now has more than 20 children, but in fact, he has died three children before and after. This premature mortality rate is actually relatively low, because the conditions in the palace are good. In the private sector, the infant mortality rate of ordinary people's children is very high, many of them die at birth, and some do not raise them for three months.

Many of them died at the age of several years.

And among those children who died young, smallpox must have died of a large number.

"If this cowpox is really so powerful, and it will no longer be infected with smallpox, then this is really a blessing from God, I don't know how many lives will be saved." Empress Eldest Sun sighed.

"Li Chao can always think of a lot of strange things, but they are often very useful." After a few sips of porridge, he said to the queen, "Let's also go over together to see how to catch cowpox." ”

Hankyung.

Because of an article in the Times, the entire Han Kyoto set its eyes on the Yue Wangfu.

Smallpox, cowpox. Cowpox can prevent smallpox, this kind of thing is just like a myth, if others say such things, I am afraid that countless people will spit on them. But this was said by Li Chao, the king of Yue, and Li Chao also came up with evidence that in the past three years, hundreds of people have been vaccinated with cowpox, but no one has been infected with smallpox.

If that's all there is to it, it's not convincing. But the Times also revealed a detail that smallpox outbreaks occur in many places every year, and even infected and killed many people. And none of these vaccinated people who had been vaccinated with smallpox went to the places where smallpox occurred more than once, and even came into direct contact with smallpox patients.

These hundreds of people who have been vaccinated with cowpox are currently working in Li Chao's smallpox prevention pharmacy, and their personal experience has made countless people who were still skeptical begin to believe.

What's more, Li Chao stated in the Times that he would vaccinate his sons and daughters against cowpox.

If this is not true, does Li Chao dare to risk his own children?

Since Li Chao wants to take acne on his children, it really shows that this is true.

Smallpox can be prevented!

Thirty percent of people who get smallpox are likely to die, and such an incurable disease can be prevented now? How many people are excited.

The whole Han Kyoto was excited.

"What will happen if you plant cowpox, will it also become pockmarks?" Someone asked worriedly, everyone knows the pockmarks after smallpox, and the number of pockmarks on the face is innumerable, the big ones are like stars, the small ones are like sesame seeds, and the smallest and the smallest ones are two or two halves.

"No, it is said that it is to make a cut on the arm, and then get the cowpox, that is, to get some pus from the cowpox, and then there will be cowpox, but it will be a little hot, drink more boiling water, and it will be fine in two days." At that time, there was a scar on his arm, nothing else. In the future, there will never be smallpox again, not even cowpox. ”

"Just a scar on your arm? Oh my God, that's God. Do you know where to get cowpox? I'm going to pick up my kids too! ”

"I'm going to pick one for myself."

"It seems that there is no place to pick it up now, but I estimate that if this matter is really so godly, it won't be long before the government will definitely make arrangements. After all, this kind of thing is really a great thing. ”

Yue Wangfu.

Since the newspaper made public the matter of receiving pox, Li Chao's house has been full of traffic, and countless guests and friends are in an endless stream. Relatives, friends, even colleagues, and even some people who don't move around are also running around the corner at this time.

They came just to confirm the matter.

"Is this true?"

Even Qin Qiong came with his wife, Princess Changguang, and his young son.

"It's true, I'm going to give the child pox at home today."

The eldest princess of Changguang said excitedly, "Wenyuan, let's give our family Huaiyu a pox too." You are his brother-in-law, and you can't forget him. ”

There are many people like Qin Qiong and his wife.

The Li family already has a lot of relatives, but now it seems that they are all crowded into the mansion all of a sudden, and the huge Yue Wangfu seems to be unable to stand up to these relatives and friends.

"King Yue, get ready to take over, Your Majesty and Niangniang have arrived."

Wang Chengen also appeared, and as soon as he appeared, he pulled Li Chao and asked him to take over.

The Li Mansion, which was already busy, is even more lively now.

The middle door was wide open, and Li Chao took these relatives to greet Li Shimin and his wife. Li Shimin and Empress Changsun came together, and also brought Cheng Qian, Li Tai, Li Lizhen, etc.

"Your Majesty."

"I and the queen heard that you picked up cowpox for your family today, so we came to watch. You don't have to entertain us, just concentrate on getting the pox. ”

The emperor brought not only his sons and daughters, but also the imperial doctors.

Acne may sound mysterious, but it's actually quite simple.

I brought the pox cow beforehand.

In the beautiful hall of the Li family, there is a cow and a child.

Li Shimin and a group of relatives gathered around.

Li Chao personally copied the knife and planted pox for his eldest son Li Jing.

"Don't be afraid, it'll be fine for a while, so many people are watching, take out the courage of our Li family boys, don't cry." Li Chao said to his eldest son with a smile.

Three-year-old Li Jing gritted his teeth and nodded, but it could be seen that he was very nervous.

Thirteen Niang stood aside, rubbing her handkerchief with both hands.

After boiling water and boiling the scalpel, Li Chao also changed into a clean white robe, Li Jing's left arm was exposed, Li Chao picked up the blade, first took cotton dipped in alcohol and wiped it on his arm a few times.

"It's so cool."

"Well, it hurts a little, but it's fine for a while." Li Chao comforted his son, picked up the blade, and drew a small cross on the tiny arm, and blood flowed out.

Li Chao took the pox seed from the cow and wiped it on the wound.

Then apply gauze and bandage it.

"A strong young man, worthy of being a man of the Li family, worthy of my son Li Chao, come, reward you with a rock sugar gourd." Li Chao took a rock sugar gourd from Zhao Siniang's hand and handed it to his son.

Li Jing was still frowning, but immediately grinned when he saw the sugar.

"San Lang, is this all right?" Cui Yingying took her son into her arms and hurriedly asked.

"Well, take it on, in the next few days, he will have a fever, sweat, and a slight discomfort, but don't worry, it will be fine in three or five days at most. After a few days, the wound on the arm will scar, and the scar will fall, and you will no longer get smallpox, and you will not be afraid of smallpox. ”

Li Shimin sighed, "Do you have to get a cow every time you get pox?" ”

"Your Majesty, in fact, it is not easy to find a cow with pox, and the degree is just in the pox slurry that can be directly inoculated into the human body. It has to be a cow that has just had a pox, and the pox pulp has to be just right to inoculate a person. There's a better way to do it, and it's straight arm to arm. ”

Vaccinia vaccine is taken directly from the arm of one person who has just been vaccinated and then inoculated into the arm of another person.

This method is much quicker and more convenient than taking it from a cow. However, there is a possibility of inactivity, so if you want to vaccinate on a large scale, it is still important to have a high breed and safe vaccinia vaccine, which requires a dedicated team.

"Wen Yuan, you have done a great deed, this law has been spread all over the world, and more than 10,000 people will be saved every year." Li Shimin sighed and said, "Can this method be passed on to the world?" ”

"Your Majesty, the minister is willing to completely spread this law to the world. However, vaccinating cowpox requires a special person to prevent infection, etc. Therefore, it is best for the imperial court to organize special training, establish a special pox team, and then vaccinate the people in all parts of the world. ”

"Okay, I'll leave this matter to you to be responsible for, go back and get a detailed chapter first, ask for money and people, and I will give it all."

There are many people watching the pox today, and Li Chao only gave it to his eldest son in the end.

He originally planned to give all the children in the family acne at one time, but the family was worried. Li Chao still plans to take his time and wait for the boss's situation to be seen by everyone before continuing.

Li Shimin unceremoniously booked with Li Chao in advance, as long as he waited for Li Jing's response, he would pick up all his princes and princesses.

Li Chao isolated Li Jing's yard on the same day.

In the evening, Li Jing had a reaction, the pox seed worked, and he got cowpox. The symptoms of cowpox were very mild, and it could only be regarded as a very mild viral reaction, and he developed a fever. However, there were no symptoms of smallpox such as rash and headache.

The wound on the arm began to form pus.

Li Chao asked the imperial doctor left by Li Shimin to record these symptoms in detail.

The next day, the pustule matured more and more.

"It's time to get the pox seed."

These symptoms of Li Jing indicate that his vaccinia has been successfully inoculated. After the cowpox, the next thing is to get better, and then I have smallpox immunity.

"Take this pus?" A royal physician asked.

"Yes, this pus is pox, and it's better than finding pox from cows. If you take it and plant it, if you inoculate it in large quantities in the future, this pox is the best pox seed. Those who are willing to provide acne vaccinations can receive acne for free, and they can even be given some money. ”

punctured the acne bag and took out the pox pulp, Li Chao directly connected it to his second brother Li Hui.

On the third day, Li Hui began to have fever symptoms, and the eldest Li Jing had already lost his fever and the wound began to scar.

The imperial doctor truthfully reported these situations to Li Shimin.

Li Shimin came to Li Chao's mansion in person, and after personally checking the two children, "Tomorrow will pick up the prince's pox!" ”

Li Chao responded with a smile!
