Chapter 498: Disaster

Lindsay sat on the hospital bed and glanced out the window and put away the newspaper in her hand.

He was sick and regained consciousness with medication, one hand was fixed in the hospital bed, and in order to prevent him from getting sick, the hospital did not let them go free at all.

The hospital bed not far from him was the patient who was admitted to this isolation room not long after he was admitted to this isolation room. He was also infected with Reedman's virus and regained consciousness with a modified agent of HX3.

This is the hardest-hit area in Belgium, two patients in an isolation room, because there are too many patients, the isolation area here is already overcrowded, and I am afraid that this situation will continue for an unknown amount of time before there is no specific medicine to treat it.

"When did you say the special medicine will come out?" Lindsay spoke, her voice a little untired and a little uneasy. This kind of waiting for death is uncomfortable for anyone.

"I don't know." The patient opposite Lindsay shook his head, and he was not in a good state of mind. His name is Maude, and he once introduced himself to Lindsay, and the two are also friends in distress, and they have long been familiar with each other in this closed isolation room, chatting when they are bored.

"I don't know how long this medicine lasts." Lindsay said.

"Hehe, I guess it's going to be soon, I feel a little wrong now." Maude smiled wryly and did not speak.

Lindsay came back to his senses, his pupils shrank, and when he looked at Maud again, the other party was already shaking his head, as if he wanted to shake off the contents of his head.

"Go away, go away!!"

"Ghost, ghost, don't come here."

"Let's all die."

Suddenly, Maud saw Lindsay, her face was already terrified, and she kept pulling her hand tied to the hospital bed, retracting her body into the corner of the hospital bed, and waving her other hand constantly, as if she had seen something terrifying.

Seeing this scene, Lindsay's pupils shrank, and fear rose in her heart.

This is the state after the onset of the disease, completely devoid of self-awareness, like a psychotic madman. I'm afraid that when I get sick, it won't be much better than this.

A wave of despair welled up in his heart, and he was completely flustered.

……

"The injection was successful, let him go."

In the Los Angeles quarantine area, Steven pulled out the syringe in the patient's body, quickly retreated to a meter away from the hospital bed, and watched the patient who was struggling frantically on the bed.

Five minutes passed, and the patient on the hospital bed had no intention of stopping, still looking at him with crazy eyes, as if he saw an enemy.

This scene made the medical staff next to him mention it in their hearts.

"Dr. Tivan, why isn't the patient well?"

"The HX3 agent has failed." Tivin's voice was extremely heavy, and the gloom in his heart was even thicker.

"So what do we do?" The voice of the medical staff was a little panicked.

"Fix him like this, don't let him go." "Keep an eye out for the other quarantine rooms, and let me know as soon as the medicine doesn't work," Steven said. ”

"Okay." The paramedics hurriedly agreed.

Leaving the isolation room, Steven felt his heart heavy, and he was a little panicked, but he had to force himself to calm down.

The HX3 agent has failed.

The worst happens.

Once the potion fails to work on the patient, it means that the first users will become delirious again, and it will be a disaster for the whole world.

And this catastrophe has come.

……

Tokai, Tokyo, New York, Ottawa, Paris, London, Berlin, Amsterdam......

Something similar is happening everywhere in the world.

The modified HX3 agent failed to respond to the first patients, and more and more patients, the virus in the body woke up, and the disease relapsed. In just one day, 227 people died globally due to recurrence of the disease.

The news sent the world into an unprecedented panic.

Many infected people saw that the disease had relapsed, and their mentality had collapsed, and they were desperate, crying and begging doctors for treatment, but the response was only a sigh of regret.

Death, despair, fear, this is the theme of the quarantine, all kinds of negative emotions, as if the hand of death is in their hearts, ready to take their lives.

The first batch of potions had failed, and the month-long delay had passed. However, there is still no good news about drug breakthroughs in various medical teams around the world, which has made many front-line medical personnel collapse.

……

"Dean, there are more and more patients who are out of control, there are not enough isolation rooms and beds, and there are not enough medical staff. Masks, gowns, gloves, syringes, sedatives, ambulances, etc. are not enough. The urgently needed medical equipment is already in short supply, and we need a lot of medical supplies to support it. ”

Roger looked at the middle-aged and elderly man wearing glasses in front of him, he was Matt, the director of Victoria Hospital. Seeing that Matt didn't speak, Roger was anxious and continued to ask.

"The HX3 potion only lasts for a month, is there any new drug at the institute?"

"Nope." Matt shook his head with a calm face: "There is no news in the whole world, WHO, research teams from all over the world have tried more than 4,290 drugs, all of which are ineffective against the virus, and this virus is terrifyingly domineering." ”

"So what now? Hospitals can no longer accommodate so many patients. There is also a steady stream of diagnoses. If this continues, once the tipping point is exceeded, it will be completely finished. The medical staff of the entire hospital will be exposed to the virus environment, and the probability of infection will increase. And if the medical staff are infected, this vicious circle opens up, and the entire hospital will become a dead building. ”

Roger voiced anxious.

Since the outbreak of the virus, many medical staff have been infected and died, which has put a lot of psychological pressure on front-line medical staff. If there are other problems, I am afraid that this virus will really get out of control.

The air fell silent, and everyone except Roger and Matt were in a heavy mood.

It was a long time before Matt spoke slowly.

"Jointly ask the CDC to establish a centralized quarantine area, so that it is easy to manage, and the manpower does not need to be too scattered. In the absence of specific drugs, the single isolation of patients will not have any effect, and will only increase manpower and workload. ”

The other doctors nodded in agreement.

As one of the hardest-hit areas in the UK, the number of sick people in the whole territory has exceeded 5,000, not including the number of people who have died and the number of people who have died violently, and the number of people who have been quarantined is more than 150,000, which is only the number in the UK, and some of the other hard-hit areas are even more terrifying.

The number of confirmed cases and deaths is reaching new highs every day, which is already a dangerous number.

If any quarantine point gets out of control, it will be a real catastrophe. Centralized management of all patients makes it more convenient. At present, there is no specific drug for treatment, and even if it is isolated alone, it will not be of much use. Under special circumstances, there are no other issues to take care of, otherwise the epidemic will be out of control and will be even more terrifying.

The UK Center for Disease Control and Prevention announced the establishment of three centralized isolation areas, and all confirmed patients will be centrally isolated and managed.

The news shook the medical community.

The epidemic has reached the point where it is about to get out of control, and if it continues like this, no one can guarantee what terrible end this disaster will bring.

Soon after the establishment of centralized isolation areas in the United Kingdom, other hard-hit areas in Europe and the United States also announced the establishment of centralized isolation points in the hard-hit areas, sending all confirmed patients to the isolation areas, and the military's anti-chemical warfare forces will be centrally isolated and managed.

At this time, the number of confirmed cases in the world has reached 70,000, the number of deaths is refreshing every day, and the number of people in isolation worldwide is as high as 2 million.

Under various strict restrictions, the momentum of the crazy spread of the Reedman virus has begun to ease, but the death toll is also increasing. In centralized quarantine, every day there are deaths, despair, collapses. Some of the patients who were still awake chose to commit suicide and die with dignity.

The news after another made everyone's hearts heavy, and if there was no special drug, it would mean that all infected people would die, which would be a catastrophic number.
