Chapter 470: The Flu of the Century (Part II)

The second wave of influenza is different from the first wave, this wave of influenza is very contagious, and its mortality rate is nearly 50 times higher than that of ordinary influenza, especially among young and middle-aged people aged 20 to 35, the mortality rate is particularly high, and its symptoms are not only high fever, headache, but also blue face and coughing up blood, etc., many people still go to work normally in the morning, get sick at noon, and die at night.

In the face of a sudden onset of disaster, governments began to work to isolate the sick and disinfect all public places, and almost all countries announced restrictions on citizens' access to public places, including cinemas, dance halls, stadiums and other places.

Everyone should try to stay at home to avoid cross-infection, but they are also limited to isolation and prevention, because there is no specific medicine, and the medical level of the whole Wangxiangxing is not high, there is no good way to eliminate these terrible flu viruses in various countries.

Of all the nations, the Chinese Empire was the first to begin prevention and the most thorough. Fang Xiaoyu has experience in SARS in his previous life and has made a lot of regulations.

First, we called on the whole country to start a large-scale sanitation clean-up campaign to eliminate sanitary blind spots and reduce the transmission of diseases. Second, the chemical plants under the Chung Hwa Foundation produce hypochlorous acid and peracetic acid in large quantities, which are regularly distributed to local governments, and all public places are regularly disinfected by local cleaning teams. Third, in addition to asking residents to stay at home as much as possible, they are also required to wear masks as much as possible, avoid eating raw food as much as possible, and boil water for five minutes before drinking.

In addition to these regulations, Fang Xiaoyu collected pathological plants from infected soldiers as early as the first flu appeared, and handed them to the medical school to study special drugs, and even Xiaofeng scanned the pathological plants into a chip and compared and studied them in a simulated environment. However, the development of any kind of drug requires long-term research and clinical verification, and it cannot be done in one or two years.

In May 909, two months after the second wave of influenza began, cases finally appeared in the territory of the Chinese Empire, and even among the Chinese soldiers on the island of Madagascar, cases began to increase significantly, and even deaths.

Fang Xiaoyu attached great importance to these cases, and he immediately asked Health Minister Sun Xiaomei to open a special hospital to house these patients and provide free treatment. Sun Xiaomei also attached great importance to it, and personally led people to formulate treatment plans for these people, but in the treatment, Sun Xiaomei unexpectedly found that penicillin and sulfonamides, which were special products of the Chinese Empire, had an inhibitory effect on this flu, although they could not be completely cured, but they could quickly reduce the symptoms.

The Chinese Empire soon announced this achievement to the world, and at the same time, the major pharmaceutical factories of the Chinese Empire began to work overtime to produce medicines, and the first batch of drugs were not only supplied for domestic use, but Fang Xiaoyu began to supply them to the allies of the ASEAN at a low price, so that the domestic people of each country saw the hope of healing, and the local situation quickly stabilized. In addition, Fang Xiaoyu also began to implement the various preventive experiences of the Chinese Empire in various allied countries, so that the disease in these countries was effectively controlled, and the death toll plummeted.

Seeing that the condition of the ASEAN countries had been effectively alleviated, the Yaman Empire and other countries immediately submitted a request to the Chinese Empire to purchase medicines. Fang Xiaoyu will not sit idly by and ignore the demands of these countries, and he announced that the Chinese Empire will open up the supply of drugs from various countries, whether it is sulfonamides, penicillin, or hypochlorous acid and peracetic acid used for disinfection. The Chinese Empire's unconcealed behavior made all countries rejoice, and the image of the Chinese Empire among the people of various countries rose for a time.

Although the Chinese consortium slightly lowered the prices of various drugs, it still made a lot of money, but Fang Xiaoyu was not happy because of the money made from drugs, he was most anxious about the 100,000 Chinese soldiers on the island of Madagascar, so Fang Xiaoyu entered the chip again and Xiaofeng to discuss the development of special drugs.

"Xiaofeng, why is it so difficult to develop special drugs?" Fang Xiaoyu's mind entered Xiaofeng's control hall.

Xiao Feng replied with an entity: "Master, this is a very normal situation, the development of any kind of special medicine is a very complex process, not to mention that the medical level in this world is very low, and the development speed is also slow. ”

Fang Xiaoyu nodded: "Indeed, I also neglected the medical aspect, I also think that in such an era when there are no antibiotics, with penicillin, you can sit back and relax for a long time, and even the traditional Chinese medicine aspect is not tight." ”

Xiao Feng said: "One medicine can't cure all diseases, this is very normal. The owner doesn't have to blame himself, in fact, I have been conducting research in biomedicine, and I really don't have much research on Chinese herbal medicine and antibiotics. ”

Fang Xiaoyu said: "What I'm most worried about now is the army soldiers on the island of Madagascar, I don't know if there is any way to keep me from being infected." ”

Xiaofeng said: "How can you have such an idea? ”

Fang Xiaoyu said: "I want to go to Madagascar Island to visit those soldiers and boost their morale. ”

Xiao Feng said: "Your body has been transformed by chips, and you have partially possessed the strong physique of the earthlings of later generations, and you are completely immune to this low-level infectious disease." ”

"Huh? Then you didn't say it earlier. Fang Xiaoyu said: "I'll go to Madagascar Island first, you have to hurry up and develop a special medicine." With that, he left the chip space.

Xiao Feng said to himself: "If it weren't for the research of those special medicines, how could it be delayed for so long, it seems that I would also have to pay attention to the development of special drugs for this low-level infectious disease." ”

In early June, despite the advice of many officials, Fang Xiaoyu resolutely decided to take a boat to the island of Madagascar to visit the soldiers of the expeditionary force who had lived there for most of the year. The news shook the world, and people speculated whether His Majesty, the most powerful emperor in the world, was putting on a show around the island or actually going to visit the soldiers. As a result, Fang Xiaoyu's actions surprised the world, he actually left all the guards on the ship off the coast of Madagascar, and transferred to an assault boat to board the island of Madagascar alone.

Fang Xiaoyu's action not only frightened Vice Admiral Wan Yong, who served as the commander of the escort fleet, but also shocked the officers and men of the army stationed on the island of Madagascar.

At this time, Xiao Cheng, the commander-in-chief of the expeditionary force and the former commander of the 12th Army of the National Defense Force, was the first to walk to Fang Xiaoyu's side and said excitedly: "Your Majesty, how can you easily take risks and come to such a place." ”
