Chapter 15: A Fire in the Summer

"As for scaring us so much? How could this virus appear? ”

There were still people who didn't believe it, so they sent out the above message, feeling that David was scaring them.

Because the viruses they remember, including smallpox and plague, are not so contagious.

As for the new viruses that are emerging now, AIDS is mostly sexually transmitted, and filoviruses are also contact infections.

"How is that possible? The problem is that the virus has already appeared, and if you don't see it, it doesn't mean it doesn't exist, if you don't believe it. ”

David seems to want to curse people, when is this? Will he tease everyone? He paused for a moment and then sent a message: "If you don't believe me, you can see for yourself." ”

"Before I go over, I want to remind you: you must be prepared for protection, don't go in and stand up and go in, lie down and come out."

The others were silent, they really didn't believe in the emergence of this virus, but David was convincing.

It made them a little undecided, and a little more suspicious, and David naturally saw their hesitation.

"Don't believe it, you must know that someone in Avik City has escaped." David said indignantly.

"I just don't know where the next outbreak of the virus will be? Will? ”

"Is it the city of Ma Lilan? Or the City of York? David sent a message.

These cities are all located in the vicinity of the city of Avik.

"Or Roland City?"

After someone else sees the message.

Or will you be skeptical, is what this person said true?

At this moment, someone in the group remembered that their students were in Ma Lilan City.

"David, are you telling the truth? Can you come up with any other evidence? ”

That video alone doesn't prove anything, after all, it's possible to fake the video now.

"Bring out other evidence? Doctors in the city of Avik found that something was wrong and found that they could not report the information. ”

"I happened to be classmates with my subordinates, and when I found a problem, I wanted to ask what the hell was going on."

"Later, it happened that the doctor himself was sick, and in order to express my gratitude, I sent someone to send supplies to check the situation."

"I found out that the whole city is what you saw in the video, and the people who were sent there thought that there was a zombie crisis in Avik City, and there were zombies everywhere."

David naturally wouldn't say that the research institute sent people to Avik City mainly to investigate the situation, and by the way, he also infiltrated the research center and got a lot of good things, of course, this kind of hand-taking thing will not tell others.

The others were a little surprised when they heard this, and those who didn't believe it at all became a little convinced, but those of them still felt that something was wrong, could the high contagiousness of the virus be exaggerated?

David then sent a message: "When they arrived at the place, they really found that something was wrong, so they collected a lot of samples from Avik City and came back, ready to study." ”

"I feel that I am not right, so I will share the information, I want everyone to be mentally prepared, otherwise I am afraid that it will be too late for everyone to know anything."

At this moment, the rest of the people trusted David's words more, because there was no need for him to lie, and many lies would be finished as soon as they were confronted.

"So, David, what you said is true?" Although it was a question, the person who asked the question actually basically believed David.

So if it's true, and everyone in the group becomes serious, it's all a problem.

Whether or not David exaggerated the contagiousness, it at least proved that a plague was about to strike.

In fact, if it is discovered early, it should be easier to seal all the cities that are the source.

Of course, they know that is what they think, and the lockdown and quarantine are very good.

This is the best way to make the virus not contagious.

But if you really dare to do that, you will be in trouble.

I'm afraid that I will be scolded by many people who don't know the truth.

A lot of times people find that doing things isn't just about doing what they want to do.

The laws of the state are bound by people's actions, and some things are not easy to do.

Maybe you can't see it piecemeal, but once you get caught, you will never recover.

Everyone in David's family knew this, and they understood it very well in that atmosphere of chanting "Lord Himself".

Such a forcible quarantine is not in line with the purpose of the Liberal People, and it is necessary to fight a war of words if you want to do this.

That is, it takes a lot of time to divide the various interests, EMMMM, of course, not everyone's interests.

They know this in their hearts, and the reason why they are so sure that they have seen through all this, and they have also seen some incidents that are stuck by the so-called regulations. It's really a sin, and people don't know what to say after watching it.

Ling Xiao didn't know what David was doing at the moment, but she knew very well that what David wanted to do was more difficult to achieve, so she didn't get involved, because she had watched a natural disaster in a world and was very prepared.

There was once a country where the land was vast and sparsely populated, with a lot of forest vegetation, the air quality index was very high, and the air was extremely sweet.

As a result, the people of this country are extremely proud, and a group of environmentally friendly people have appeared, shouting: "Don't let you cut down a tree."

Because the forest department wants to build fire escapes in the forest, it is necessary to cut down some trees and drain some of the open space.

This behavior angered the extreme environmentalists, who deliberately organized people to climb trees to die and prevent them from being cut down.

Even a very far-fetched bill was passed to prohibit the felling of any tree in the forest.

Later, an electric power company needed to build a high-voltage line to carry electricity through a certain part of the forest.

For safety, the blank area had to be cut out near the high-voltage line as a firebreak.

As a result, those extreme environmental activists were discovered, and the end result was a fine.

After killing the monkeys, it became a taboo to cut down trees.

Then one year in the country there was a sudden wildfire.

The fire quickly spread.

It can be said that the fire is getting bigger and bigger.

Even more sad is that someone took the opportunity to set a few more fires.

However, the wildfire started deep in the forest.

There are no fire escapes, so it is impossible to use ordinary methods to rescue.

The fire is spreading in the forest, causing the fire to become larger and larger.

Then a very important question arises: what can be done to extinguish this fire?

The fire that appeared this time really caught the attention of many people, because many people don't understand why this fire lasted so long.

There were natural causes at the beginning of the fire, and at that time the country was in the summer, and the conditions were not very good, such as high temperatures, low rainfall, and strong winds, which made the fire very difficult to extinguish.

In addition, there are very few firefighters fighting on the front line, only more than 600 people, and they can't be saved. Because the fire was so big, some firefighters died in the fire, and later had to rely on volunteers to go up to put out the fire.

Even so, the fire has not been extinguished, and it has not been extinguished for four months, which makes Ling Xiao feel curious.

In her opinion: since it is impossible to extinguish the fire by manpower at this time, the best way is to create a barrier.

That is, before the fire burns, enough trees are cut down.

As the saying goes, there are no trees to burn, so the fire will be extinguished.

Isn't that supposed to be implemented? Although part of the trees were cut down.

But at the very least, the remaining trees and animals can be saved.

In comparison, it can be regarded as a firefighting method that can be implemented.

Trees outside the arson zone can be kept alive.

But in the end, the fire continued to spread.

A fire in the summer.

And so it burned.

I don't know if I have made a separation belt?

I just know that those firefighters and volunteers are working very hard.

But the wildfire is still burning, so what else can be done?

In the end, there was only one way to pray to Heaven and put out the fire with a heavy rain.

The fires in the country gave Ling Xiao a feeling that human rescue work was a drop in the bucket.

As a person from other countries, I can only stare and watch, watching the big forest turn from green to black little by little, and slowly watch the area of the wildfire become larger and larger, and many animals in the forest have nowhere to escape, and finally turn into charcoal.

After the drastic reduction of forest area, many of the original habitats of many animals have been destroyed, which has led to many animals moving, and even a large number of bats have moved and have to enter nearby cities to live with humans.

Is it really protecting every tree? How do you look at the so-called protection has become a lifeline for those trees and animals.

What's even more terrifying is that this wildfire is still burning after four months.

I don't know how long it will burn? The answer is still unknown.

Ling Xiao pondered: At this time, I won't talk about global warming.

Just watch a fire burn and burn!

Look at the amount of carbon emitted and grow.

Depend on! It's really a double standard!

People who don't know still think.

The people of the country should want to please God.

That's why so many animals and plants will be sacrificed.

Cut! I wonder if those extreme environmental activists will feel heartache?

Admittedly, they were forced to die, and it seemed that they were protecting a few trees from being cut down.

But the trees that weren't cut down in that fire eventually died in the fire.

As a result, there was no rescue, and what was even more tragic was that this time more trees were burned and died.

Not only plants were burned to death, but also a large number of animals were killed. In this way, the fire burned for several months, and it still burned, causing the amount of carbon dioxide on the entire planet to surge, which is really environmentally friendly.

Just when the fire was coming, the country even spent a lot of money on fireworks celebrations, and some people once proposed to exchange the funds for firefighting materials, but they were rejected.

Maybe they will only try to put out the fire when it burns near them, but if it does burn to them, I am afraid that it will be too late.

Ling Xiao later didn't understand what the country's politicians thought, and their three views were different, and their thoughts would be different.

She will let go of what David did, and David's connections are stronger than the original owner.

At this moment, David and most of the people in the group reached an agreement: to provide relevant samples.

Because he knew if the truth was known only to a few.

Then many people will be tricked unknowingly.

to the contagiousness of this virus.

I'm afraid that not many are spared.

And what he wants to do is known to more people.

Let everyone know the severity of the spread of this virus.

And let everyone know that each and every one of them will be in the middle of it.

Then most people will not be on the side of indifference, but will try to snipe the spread of the virus.

Of course, David also knows that it is the idea of most people, and not all people think so.

After all, there are always some people in this world who like to go off the beaten path, and in fact, there may be a class of people who will cheer at the arrival of the virus.

Such people may be desperate for the world, so the thought of dying together is normal for them. There is also a group of people who oppose for the sake of opposition, after all, there are those people in this world who want to say that we have the right to say 'no'.

There is only one thought in their eyes: I just want to say no. Both types of people are possible, just as a fire is seen by most people as a fire that is quickly extinguished, and in the eyes of some people it is a fire that is too small to set a few fires elsewhere.

If you encounter such people, you don't have to argue with them at all, and if you are lucky enough to catch evidence that they are committing a crime, then you should send them to jail time.

If you don't actually do bad things, but you just like to raise the bar with others, then you should just ignore that kind of person.

There is only one end to reasoning with this kind of bar: to lower yourself to the same level as theirs.

But I have to guard against the existence of this kind of person, so as not to be half killed by this kind of anger.

The people David found were largely free of this problem.

He said: "Regarding those virus samples, I will send them to the appropriate people. ”

"If you find out that I am not lying, please send it to the people in the group."

"You must know that the strange virus may have arrived around us now, don't be too lucky."

Others came with messages of agreement, and some asked: Do you know where the virus came from? David said, "I don't know."

David remembered the information he had exchanged with Liana, that is, viruses that were very unfriendly to humans, many of them from animals.

Although those viruses live in peace with animals, if they are transmitted to humans, the virus is extremely lethal, and a large reason is that the virus in the animal body and the host co-evolve.

This leads to a balance between the virus and the host, which means that the virus is not lethal to animals, but once it infects humans for various reasons, the virus will invade very violently because humans do not have any memory of antibodies.

After the virus from animals invades humans, the human immune system has a series of problems, sometimes the virus is particularly ferocious and too late to react, and some immune systems do not detect the invasion of the virus at all.

Many viruses known today: Ebola, AIDS, avian flu, etc., all come from animals, and these are two different ways of responding.

David once said funny: "It's like this, it's really a strange situation, such a terrible virus." ”

Lena said, "If the virus had an IQ, it wouldn't have thought of destroying its host." ”

"Because they're so virulent, they can only wipe out the host very quickly."

"They also can't find a place to parasitize, and eventually they are wiped out."

"In other words, the death of the host will make it impossible for the virus to perish after it cannot find a new host."

"Ebola is that virus, so it's going to go away so quickly and then it's going to come back again."
