Chapter 213: Quarantine Zone

Although Saigon is claimed to be the second largest city in the five provinces of Southeast Asia after Hanoi, the city as a whole is actually not large, with a population of only about 500,000, which is due to the increase in immigration from the Qing Dynasty and other parts of Southeast Asia in the past few months after the fighting subsided. But even so, it is very difficult for Wang Yi to monitor the entire city with the current technical means.

Since yesterday, the police and insurance teams have been clearing up the flood of victims from the city, with as gentle methods as possible and increased propaganda efforts to bring them to designated refugee areas.

The advantages of this are obvious, first, it is convenient for centralized management and can save a lot of manpower and material resources. The second is to ensure the safety of the urban area and eliminate hidden dangers. The third is to be able to establish quarantine areas in case of epidemics...... In fact, Wang Yi had no illusions about this at all. The climatic conditions of South Vietnam, coupled with the fact that the most precious period of disaster relief time was wasted, were all developing in a direction that Wang Yi did not want. It is estimated that within a few days, various cases will appear one after another. As for how many people can be rescued in the end, Wang Yi is not too optimistic.

Despite the many benefits and the gentle and restrained approaches, there have been some clashes in the urban area of Saigon, some of which have been very intense. In particular, when dealing with some of the bodies that had fallen down on the road, the families of the deceased resolutely refused to incinerate the bodies. Some of the streets were already stinking, and the smell of corpses mixed with the smell of feces and the rain that fell from time to time made it a large petri dish of bacteria.

"In order to stay healthy, people are asked to quote boiling water and not drink raw water. Pay attention to the hygiene of the surrounding living environment, and if anyone in your home has symptoms such as diarrhea and fever, please contact the nearby medical team immediately......

Loudspeakers in the streets are constantly promoting government policies in Vietnamese and Chinese, but every qiΔ“ carries the sense of remedy.

When Wang Yi passed by some streets, he also saw some road falls, but it was not his turn to clean up, and Chu Yuan would not let him do it. After following Wang Yi for so long, Chu Yuan also had a little understanding of infectious diseases. So no matter what, he wouldn't let Wang Yi get close to those potential sources of infection. If it weren't for Wang Yi's insistence, he wouldn't even want Wang Yi to come out and walk around, it would be best to pick up Shen Yazhi as much as he could, and then return to the northeast. Both South Vietnam and Cambodia are now extremely dangerous areas.

After more than a day, the camp was finally set up, and the rows of tents looked like a lot, but they still couldn't meet the needs of all the refugees, and many families were huddled together, with helplessness in their eyes.

Seeing Wang Yi, Gu Quan came over at this time and said, "Sir, why are you here?" ”

"This is the block you're responsible for?"

Gu Quan shook his head and said, "No." The students only came to inspect it, and once the situation in Saigon stabilized, I would go to other counties and cities in the province. ”

Wang nodded, Gu Quan is the governor of a province after all, and although Saigon is the provincial capital, it is not Gu Quan's turn to intervene directly.

"What's going on here?"

"There was a shortage of tents, and some of the refugees who arrived late had to live in makeshift huts, but fortunately the weather was not cold and the rain was starting to slow down. The only consolation now is that the food we have stockpiled has stabilized people's hearts well, and as long as nothing happens, the people's feelings will soon calm down. ”

Looking at Gu Quan's optimistic statement, Wang Yi did not have such good expectations.

"Is there an outbreak?"

The expression on Gu Quan's face froze, and he finally stopped being so optimistic, and said, "Yes, we have established a quarantine area a few miles away, and there is an insurance team on the periphery to guard it, and there are doctors in charge of it. Now there are more than 300 people living in it, and many of them are not in good condition. ”

"So much?" Although Wang Yi had prepared for the worst, he had never thought that corruption would be like this. Three hundred people didn't sound like much, but it was only a day and night. "Bring it over!"

The living conditions in the refugee area are not very good now, but with the food supply, the resentment and anger of the refugees will also be reduced, even if there are people who provoke it, but under the establishment of the refugee area, monitoring is put in the first place. As soon as there is a disturbance, it can be stopped in time. The South Vietnamese people, who had just experienced the war in the first half of the year, were tired and saw that their lives were safe, and they were unlikely to clash with the government that gave them food and wages. The rescue work of the Northeast Autonomous Region government is not effective now, but it is much more timely than the previous Nguyen Dynasty.

However, the situation in the quarantine area is not easy to say, the corpse is always a bane, and it has a strong sensory stimulation for the people, and once there is a provocation, it will make people empathize.

In the process of walking to the quarantine area, Wang Yi asked, "In the quarantine area, has anyone died now?" ”

Gu Quan really couldn't answer, the number jΓΉ in his hand was summarized from all over the place, and the single number jΓΉ had to be specifically searched. Fortunately, at this time, the person in charge of the quarantine area was by his side, this person's name was Wang Qing, who was born in Dashang Medical College, and is currently working in the First Hospital of Hanoi, North Vietnam.

In this era, there is no quarantine suit in the real sense, and even if there is, it is in the northeast itself, and South Vietnam does not have such conditions. So for doctors and nurses, joining the medical team is a very risky one. Whether or not many infectious diseases can be cured in this era is somewhat resigned to fate.

"Five people died, and although there was no way to do bacterial culture, judging from the symptoms, it should be cholera." Wang Qing had worked in North Vietnam for a while, so he had a lot of experience in this area.

"Cholera...... The treatment method is simple, as long as the body can replenish the water lost due to vomiting and diarrhea in time, relieve shock and acid-base balance disorders in the body, and prevent kidney failure, the mortality rate of patients should be controlled within a certain range. ”

Wang Qing nodded, and sighed again: "Sir, the biggest problem now is that we don't know how long the medicine in our hands can last." ”

"Where are the drugs stored? How many days will it last? ”

"The medicines we brought with us are now stored at the docks, and some of them are being transported to the medical facilities in the city. Although the current medication is quite sufficient, I am worried that the number of people who will suffer from the disease will increase explosively in the next few days. It's hard to say how long it will last. And once the drug is stopped, people's hearts are unpredictable, and I am afraid that the situation will be out of control. ”

The quarantine area had already appeared in front of Wang Yi's eyes, and it was originally a newly built elementary school, but now it looked more like a military base.

PS: For the first time in so many days, I didn't have vertigo for a day, which strikes me as a little unreal......
