Chapter 226: A Magical Medicine

"Consul Jensen, thank you very much for the anti-inflammatory drug you provided, it is amazing, you know, it is a miracle, we have conducted a variety of trials according to the instructions for use, the effect is very good, it is better than we expected, these drugs will definitely cause a sensation in the medical community, and even won the medical award of the Royal Society of Medicine."

As soon as Brian, the director of St. George's Mission Hospital, entered the door of Jensen's office, he began to babble incessantly, looking very excited, and as he spoke, the hat in his hand was still waving, and he could be thrown out at any time.

Jensen was a little confused by the excited Brian, because he didn't care about that matter after he handed over the matter of testing drugs to his subordinates, and as soon as Brian entered the door today, he said what the test was, what the drug, and Jensen didn't think about it for a while.

"Hey, my old friend, don't get excited, you can sit down and talk slowly, a cup of tea or coffee." Jensen stood up and said.

"Let's have a cup of tea, after coming to China, I found that I like tea more." Brian relaxed his excitement a little and sat down on the couch with Jensen.

Jensen and Brian are old friends, Jensen has been in China for 6 years, at that time the country was not called the Republic of China, called the Qing Empire, at that time Jensen was not the consul of Shanghai, he was the consular counselor at that time, and later after the original consul returned to the UK, Jensen held this position.

However, Brian came to China earlier than Jensen, 10 years ago, in order to spread the gospel of the Lord and modern medicine, he came to Shanghai, China, and founded this St. George's Church Hospital, Brian is still relatively famous in China's medical community. After all, he came early.

The two British fellows, who are considered to be the top British figures in Shanghai, naturally had the opportunity to get in touch, and later found out that they were still alumni of each other. Both graduated from Cambridge University in England, but one of them studied law and the other studied medicine, and when they were in school, they still had two years of joint study, although the two had never been in contact.

But the relationship between fellow villagers and alumni. It brought the two closer to each other, and besides, in this part of China, it is also a very good thing to have a friend who understands Western medicine. At least Jensen still believes in Western medicine, and he is a little grateful for those bark, grass roots and insects.

Brian took a sip of the tea brought by the secretary, and continued to excitedly continue to Jensen, "I don't know where you got these miracle drugs, but I want to tell you that these drugs are very effective. Antibacterial and anti-inflammatory drugs, yes, this is the name, and the provider named this drug sulfonamides. It will definitely shock the world, and countless people will stay away from death. ”

"Jensen, do you know the infection, do you know the bacteria?" Brian asked Jensen.

"I know a little bit, I once read some simple introductions in some books." Jensen replied.

Brian didn't let Jensen go, and chattered, "Back in 1828. German scientist Allenberg discovered the bacterium and named it 'ria'. It means small stick, because what was found at that time was a rod-shaped bacterium. Later, with the development of medicine and microscopy, people gradually became familiar with this little thing. ”

"The German physician and biologist Robert Koch proposed the theory that bacteria make diseases and discovered Bacillus anthracis, Mycobacterium tuberculosis and Vibrio cholerae, and in 1905 he was awarded the Nobel Prize in Physiology and Medicine, known as the father of bacteriology."

"The medical community has recognized bacteria, and also knows the causes of some bacterial infections, but there has never been a drug that can directly kill bacteria to treat diseases, and the kind of drug you take is definitely the biggest discovery of this century, and it is an invention that can be recorded in the history of medicine."

"You told me you've been on the battlefield, right?" Brian asked, looking at Jensen.

"Yes, I went to the battlefield, it was the Second Boer War, it was a terrible experience, I was a clerk in the army, and 20,000 British soldiers died, but most of them died not in battle, but from disease."

Jensen seemed to fall into a memory: "In order to completely eliminate the basis of the guerrillas' activities, General Kitchener ordered 130,000 Boer women, children, and the elderly to be imprisoned in concentration camps, along with more than 80,000 black slaves. ”

"The concentration camps were too densely populated, malnourished, tents, blankets, clothing, food was not sufficient, and what was even more terrible was that then there was an outbreak of plague, and the disease consumed too many lives, and the Boers were also white, but for the sake of the colonial interests of South Africa, there were countless casualties in the end."

"Okay Jensen, those have passed, what I want to tell you is, what is the mortality rate in surgery now, 40%, what is the trauma mortality rate in war, more than 60%, and these are mainly the problems of infection, although we have consciously carried out the disinfection work, but we still can't avoid the patient being infected."

With that, Brian took out two small bottles from his coat pocket, shook them in front of Jensen, and placed them on the coffee table.

Jensen looked at it and said, "Is it sulfonamides?" ”

"Yes, it's sulfonamides, although it's not yet certain how many bacteria he can kill, but according to our trials, do you know the final effect, 5 percent, the surgical mortality rate is only 5%, 100 people operated, because only 5 people died from infection, what an exciting number."

Well, if Guo Yu is here, and he hears him say that 5 out of 100 people will die because of infection, and it is the effect of using sulfonamides, it is estimated that he will kill these butcher doctors, if this number is in modern hospitals, it is estimated that those hospitals have closed 100 times, and most of those doctors are estimated to have been killed by their families.

In today's hospitals, 2 to 3 out of 10 women will die after giving birth, which is a normal number, and 4 to 5 out of 10 surgical deaths are also acceptable, because this is the general understanding of the world, and entering the operating room is to walk on the line of death, and it is by no means just talking.

"Do you think it's the efficacy of these drugs, do they have such a great effect, it's not that I don't believe you, I just don't believe that there are such powerful drugs in this world." Jensen was still a little unacceptable.

"Although there are still a few individuals in the trial, but from the results received, it is absolutely amazing, we have conducted a total of 15 trials in this week's time, all of them are traumatic postoperative anti-inflammatory trials, except for one who died of surgical hemorrhage and one died of postoperative infection, the others survived, which is very shocking, isn't it, I think the effect of this drug is beyond doubt."

"We need more of this drug, this drug is the most needed thing on the battlefield, it can save countless lives, I hope you, Jensen, I sincerely hope that you can introduce this drug in large quantities, so that we will die at least half of the lads on the battlefield in Europe, which is very, very, very important for Britain."

Brian used a lot of mood particles to show his affirmation and desire for this drug, and he hoped that in his own way, he would let Jensen know the importance of this drug, that is, sulfonamides.

"Well, I think I understand what you mean, I need to contact the French consul and the American consul, this is a three-way experiment, after getting the exact news, I will do my best to inform the country, I think there will be the results you want to see." Jensen said sincerely.

Jensen still has great trust in his friend, who is obsessed with the study of medicine, dedicates all his energy to saving lives, and dedicates all his energy to medicine, and he believes that Brian will not deceive himself in this matter, and his words should have a certain authority.

Jensen picked up the phone on his desk and dialed directly to the French consul François, "François, I want to ask if there are any results of the drug trial over there, yes, it is the drugs called sulfonamides that Guo Yu gave us." ”

François's excited, slightly exaggerated voice came from the other side of the phone: "Jensen, do you know what we got, do you know how the doctor told me about this miracle drug, I received the report last night, I fell asleep in the middle of the night with excitement, I am asking the doctors to sort out the relevant facts, try my best to get a material out, I am going to do my best to inform the country, I hope that the big people in the country will understand these drugs and use them on the battlefield, you know that the French lads have died too much." ”

"Okay François, calm down first, the director of St. George's Hospital also came to report this matter just now, I hope the three of us will communicate first, and then summarize the number of real yàn, I think this is more convincing, isn't it." Jensen said over the phone.

"Okay, I'll go over to you now, well, take my doctor." After speaking, without waiting for Jensen to speak, he hung up the phone directly.

Well, François was a sensual man, an acute man, as Janssen knew all along.

Continuing to call the U.S. Consul Alder, Alder showed calmness, "I have been paying attention to the trial of sulfonamide drugs, basically checking the results every day, it is indeed a little unexpected by me, I thought I already valued these drugs very much, but they still gave me a great shock, I am ready to continue to carry out the test, in order to get more detailed information and more scientific test results, after all, this is a drug, whether there are adverse reactions in the later stage, we have not yet known." ”

Well, now that the United States has not entered the war, and the American lads are still grazing and cultivating on their family farms, Alder can do the work in more detail.

For the drug that Guo Yu came up with, as Alder, who has been paying attention to Guo Yu and thinks that Guo Yu has a huge organization, attaches more importance to this drug trial than Jensen and François, because he wants to know what Guo Yu took out this time, what kind of shock can bring him, just like his history, Guo Yu already has a magical history of making a fortune, and may create history again.
