190 Smallpox Crisis (M)
After laboratory tests, the Spanish sailor was carrying the smallpox virus, which has the highest lethal rate, and he himself had begun to have a rash all over his body and had suppurated on the third day after he was admitted to the hospital, and the appearance of ulceration all over his body was really terrifying. Pen? Interesting? Pavilion wWw. biquge。 Immediately afterward, a number of people who had contact with the sailor also became ill, including two nurses and a doctor. There were only two or three of the sailors who were on the same boatload as the sailor, and apparently some of them had had smallpox and survived and developed antibodies.
Fortunately, because the Datang Republic has 200 years of advanced experience in fighting virulent infectious diseases and has a complete set of emergency plans, the whole country took measures at the first moment of the virus outbreak. All the places that the first patient had been exposed to were closed, and people who had been in contact with these places were also screened, and street workers wearing masks and gloves wrapped tightly in the streets and alleys carried canisters that were originally designed to spray pesticides and sprayed disinfectant everywhere.
For example, modern people have basically experienced infectious diseases such as SARS and avian flu, and at that time, the country's propaganda was relatively in place, and they basically knew a little about epidemic prevention. The modern and republican congregations, as well as the Indians and the new immigrants, were slightly worse, but after the outbreak of the epidemic, the pamphlets on how to maintain hygiene and prevent infection began to be distributed on a large scale, and the pamphlets were all illiterate, considering that some people might not be literate.
"There are more than 30 infected people." Bai Nan looked at the latest report, worried. Although his wife and children are fine, he is a state official, and such a terrible epidemic itself is something to worry about. Once the disease inevitably spreads. The destructive power of this new nation is terrifying.
Liu Tiandao: "It's okay." People who are sick are quarantined by us. We have pinched the source of the spread of the virus, and as long as we survive this period and our vaccinia vaccine is ready, we will have nothing to fear about smallpox in the future. ”
While the two were talking, an office clerk came in wearing a mask and began to spray disinfectant everywhere. Now the office and other places where people are more concentrated are disinfected every day, and even everyone has to take their body temperature every day. Once the symptoms of fever and cold appear, regardless of whether it is smallpox or not, it must be isolated and observed first.
Bai Nan finished his work for the day and was ready to drive downstairs and drive home, he is now not even allowed to go to the big Hollywood mansion, the epidemic is mainly in Long Beach and Los Angeles, so in order to avoid any potential chance of the virus spreading, even from Los Angeles to neighboring towns are not allowed. Maybe this kind of order is overkill, but now the first priority of the whole country is epidemic prevention, so it must be followed.
The egg hurts. Meora went back to Hollywood, after being examined by a doctor. She didn't have the virus, and she couldn't come to Los Angeles after the lockdown, so Bai Nam was still alone.
After work, Bai Nan felt even more lonely, usually when he came home, he would see his beautiful wife holding his daughter, and the little wife, oh no, it was Meora who lived in their house who had already cooked a table of meals. The family talked and laughed, teased the baby, and had a dinner on the radio.
But now, Bai Nan can't go back to his house, he can only go to the bachelor apartment he was originally assigned to. Now the units are basically after the employees buy a house, they need to return the allocated housing to the unit, and the unit will issue a housing subsidy to the employees.
Feeling a little hungry, Bai Nan couldn't eat at home, so he could only go to the cafeteria. As a result, a sign was lit outside the door of the canteen: due to the impression of the epidemic, the canteen obeyed the arrangement of the Municipal Special Epidemic Prevention Office, and the use of the canteen is now suspended.
The canteen itself is free of charge, only a small number of better dishes, you need to buy them with a meal ticket, and you don't need to pay for a few dishes you eat normally. Bai Nan came to the foyer at the back of the cafeteria and found that the lunch box was placed on the table and stacked in a pile. There are quite a few people who come to eat, and the image today is very uniform, everyone is wearing masks, and some people are wearing gloves.
Queuing for dinner is a good habit that everyone has long developed, but now everyone deliberately keeps a lot of distance, at least three or four meters between them, originally in the canteen, in order to grab good dishes, sometimes it will be a little crowded. Now there is the same thing in every boxed lunch, one meat, one vegetarian and one pound of rice, and there is no point in grabbing it. And it's all going to be together, and it's quite dangerous.
Bai Nan also followed the scattered team and got dinner for a while. Driving to the apartment dormitory with food, it was only a few steps away, so it was very fast. The loudspeaker outside the apartment was playing the hygiene and epidemic prevention notice, there were such things everywhere in the past two days, and Bai Nan had no doubt that some people might be able to memorize it backwards.
Entering the apartment had become a slight hassle, as the doorman was dressed in a light blue hazmat suit, and only the janitor's hat on his head could identify him. Everyone who wants to enter the apartment building has to have their temperature checked before they are allowed in. Even if the doorman knew what Bai Nan's identity was, he would let him test it.
The first thing I did when I got home was not to eat, but to make a phone call, and when the phone came into the municipal hospital, I immediately asked Xu Xin: "Honey, how are you today, are you okay?" ”
"Well, it's all pretty good, it's just a little stuffy, the baby doesn't have toys to play, it's not honest when she's awake, but she sleeps after playing for a while, she just sleeps a lot. But is your work going well, I don't know what the situation is in the hospital, is it serious this time? ”
Bai Nandao: "It's basically under control, I didn't hear anyone suddenly fell ill today, but I didn't let this disease spread explosively, otherwise it would be really troublesome." ”
Xu Xin said: "That's good, I hope this matter can end soon." ”
Bai Nandao: "The development of cowpox is going well, and it shouldn't be long before we get a large number of vaccines, and then everyone can at least breathe a sigh of relief." In fact, although the original patient was covered with severe pus, he was given supportive therapy and antibiotics to prevent the infection of other bacteria, and it seems that he will not die. Other patients were also detected earlier, and as long as there is no fulminance, it should not be fatal. ”
It's just that Bai Nan's assertion is a little early. (To be continued.) )
