Chapter 5: The Iron Mask

Inscription: It's easy to be sympathetic and difficult to empathize, and vanilla is really eye-catching

Early in the morning, Zhang Dawei, deputy secretary of the Provincial Commission for Discipline Inspection, got up and went downstairs and came to the eagle platform by the East Lake. He stood on a high platform, with the East Lake in front of him, purple air rising, the first glow of the sun, the breeze blowing, and the air was fresh. The sky is getting brighter, the color of the sky changes from pale white to reddish, the mist slowly disperses, and the Moshan Mountain, Luojia Mountain, the huge outline, show its unique winter Cangsang magnificence. He finished a set of Baduanjin, and did a set of exercises he had just learned, took out his mobile phone, and called Zhuyi.

Zhang Dawei said to Zhu Yi with his unique steadiness and eldest brother's tone: "Zhu Yi, where are you?" His tone was always so majestic and deep, and at the same time there was a kind of majesty and courage peculiar to an official.

Zhu Yi rushed to Fumin Hospital early in the morning, and as soon as he arrived at the clinic, he took the phone: "Brother-in-law, you are so early!" Okay? Is my sister okay? ”

Zhang Dawei said: "We live in the same city, three or four kilometers apart, it seems that we haven't seen each other for several months, right?" ”

Zhu Yi said: "Today Xiaohan, I want to pay tribute to my brother-in-law in advance in a few days." ”

Zhang Dawei smiled: "We don't have to be polite and polite between us, now it's almost the end of the year, we are busy with each other, and the phone call and WeChat are also convenient." ”

Zhu Yi asked, "Brother-in-law, do you have something?" ”

Zhang Dawei said: "I heard that there has been a large increase in fever outpatients in the city recently, and the city's tertiary hospitals have been full of fever patients, what is going on?" ”

Zhu Yi whispered: "Say that there is an unknown virus pneumonia, which is highly pathogenic and contagious. ”

Zhang Dawei said: "I have heard about this recently, but I don't know what kind of name it is, many people called the Commission for Discipline Inspection, and many people wrote letters to reflect, saying that it is difficult to find a hospital bed, and it depends on the relationship to get a bed in the hospital, isn't it?" ”

Zhu Yi said: "This is the case in our Fumin Hospital, and I heard that this situation also exists in other hospitals. ”

Zhang Dawei said: "Our Provincial Commission for Discipline Inspection receives a lot of calls every day reflecting this kind of situation, and there are also a large number of letters, which is not normal! ”

Zhu Yi said: "Brother-in-law, I don't have time to tell you in detail now, my outpatient clinic is already crowded, and hundreds of medical staff in our hospital have all worked overtime and entered a state of emergency. ”

Zhang Dawei said: "Got it, you go get busy first." ”

Zhang Dawei hurriedly ate breakfast and came to the office, he decided to go to the city today and go to the major hospitals to have a look. Hearing is false, seeing is believing. This is his consistent work style. He selected nine hospitals from dozens of tertiary hospitals in the city, and he instructed his entourage not to give advance notice, not to hold meetings, not to hold discussions, not to listen to reports, but to go directly to the outpatient department, especially the fever outpatient department, to check the actual situation. In other words, it is a private interview with Weifu. In the morning, he went to eight key hospitals in Hankou, Hanyang, and Wuchang, and after inspecting the site, he had the impression that the situation was abnormal. Major hospitals have a large number of patients in the outpatient department, and although the hospitals are doing their best, there seems to be no sign of decreasing. In the afternoon, he went to visit several units in the city, and the cadres were busy with the year-end work, preparing for the city's people's congress and the CPPCC. When he was about to get off work, he came to the health department, and the person in charge greeted him in front of the office building and introduced Zhang Dawei and his party into the conference room. The conference room is very large, the central air conditioning has already adjusted the temperature to the right one, and a striking subtitle is scrolled on the PPT projection: Zhang Dawei, deputy secretary of the Provincial Commission for Discipline Inspection, is welcome to visit and guide. The walls of the conference room are covered with various awards and honorary certificates, which are similar to the conference rooms of other institutions. Zhang Dawei and his entourage walked around the corridor of the organ, and when they returned to the conference room, he did not sit down on the seat with his name on it, but stood in another place, and said to the person in charge present: "I came this time, I don't listen to the report, I don't conduct an examination, I just want to see your recent medical briefing." ”

The person in charge gave Zhang Dawei the three recent medical briefings, Zhang Dawei looked at them and said, "Today is the 6th of January, Xiaohan, has today's briefing come out?" ”

The person in charge hurriedly called a cadre in charge of information work, and the cadre handed over a briefing, Zhang Dawei looked at it, and said: "How many times have meetings been held in the briefings above, what I want to know most is, how many fever patients are currently hospitalized in dozens of tertiary hospitals in the city?" Number of fever clinics per day. ”

Zhang Dawei's question, for the people present, is simply a sudden test paper, they don't have this number, they can't answer, the person in charge of the scene has an idea, busy said: "Secretary Zhang, we have learned about the abnormality of fever patients in the city, and the relevant data are being counted." ”

Zhang Dawei said: "Then let's do it, two hours later, you tell me the relevant data, I didn't come here to find fault, because many fever patients can't see a doctor and can't be admitted to the hospital, so they write letters to the Provincial Letters and Visits Office and the Provincial Commission for Discipline Inspection, some call, and some go to petition." ”

The person in charge walked up to Zhang Dawei and whispered: "We have reported this situation to the relevant departments at the higher level, and the national expert group, led by academicians, has just taken away virus samples." ”

Zhang Dawei asked solemnly: "What did they say?" ”

"They said they were going to give them a certain amount of time," the person in charge said. ”

Zhang Dawei's expression was solemn and he asked, "Then have you reported to your superiors?" ”

The person in charge hurriedly replied: "It's been reported, it's been reported." The leader means to wait for the opinions of experts, because the test needs to be further demonstrated and analyzed. ”

Zhang Dawei said: "I think this matter should be grasped with both hands, on the one hand, urge the expert team to come up with a conclusion as soon as possible in order to make decisions, on the other hand, we must take the initiative to go out, do a good job of prevention and control in time, not afraid of 10,000 in case, Academician Zhong Nanshan is a hero in the fight against SARS, a well-known academician in China, you can also ask him to come out!" ”

The person in charge nodded again and again: "Yes, yes, yes!" ”

Zhang Dawei of the Provincial Commission for Discipline Inspection and his entourage went to nine tertiary hospitals in the morning to conduct on-the-spot investigations and inspections, and in the afternoon they visited some organs on the spot, which alarmed the leaders concerned. They speculated that this symptomatic unknown pneumonia had alarmed the Provincial Commission for Discipline Inspection, and Zhang Dawei, deputy secretary of the Provincial Commission for Discipline Inspection in charge of the province's inspection work, did not say hello, but made a private visit to understand the situation on the spot, which is not a joke! This Zhang Dawei is a well-known iron-faced person, known as "Zhang Iron Face". He has participated in the investigation of some major cases assigned by the central government, and has personally investigated some catastrophic cases of malfeasance that have had a great impact on the whole country. Although he is a department-level cadre, but he can directly give suggestions or opinions to the secretary of the provincial party committee and the governor, he is also called "Zhang Whirlwind", wherever he goes, there will be some dead branches and leaves on the ground, many of his investigation reports, suggestions, by the relevant departments and leaders at the higher level of instructions, forward, some have been adopted by the political and legal organs, economic and management departments, into legal provisions, red-headed documents and converted into powerful productive forces, in the provincial and municipal circles, his fame is very great, prestige is very high.

Zhang Dawei has been waiting for the medical briefing in the office, and he stands in front of the large window of the office, looking at the night view of the three towns of Wuhan. The light show began, Wuhan three towns, two rivers and four banks, tens of millions of buildings, tunnels and bridges, large and small streets, boats and boats, especially those classic natural landscapes, Yellow Crane Tower, East Lake Greenway, Turtle and Snake Two Mountains, Hankou River Beach, Dragon King Temple, Parrot Island, Zhiyin Lake, Uprising Gate, rainbow lights are bright, overflowing, strange, some lights continue to evolve the classic picture of animation culture. Wuhan's light show has attracted the attention of the whole world, and has also become a colorful and beautiful business card of Chutian, China, attracting tourists at home and abroad to come and have a look!

At this time, the secretary Liu Xingfa came in and handed him a briefing.

Zhang Dawei looked at the numbers on the briefing, threw the briefing on the table, and said, "Just these few fever patients? He wanted to call the relevant leaders, but he stopped, he thought: As the deputy secretary of the Provincial Commission for Discipline Inspection, my responsibility is to enforce party discipline and party rules, grasp the party's work style, and fight corruption. He said to his secretary: "You pay close attention to the medical briefing, pay close attention to the situation of unknown pneumonia, and report to me in a timely manner." ”

Zhang Dawei returned home, and his wife Zhuli was watching TV, which aroused Zhang Dawei's curiosity. He asked, "You never watch TV, are you idle today?" ”

Zhu Li said: "Colleagues in the unit are saying that there are unknown symptoms of pneumonia spreading in the city. ”

Zhang Dawei said: "You are the chief physician of the University Affiliated Hospital, what do you think about this?" He put away his briefcase, took off his coat, and sat down across from him.

Zhu Li sent the teacup filled with water to Zhang Dawei and said: "I don't have a complete impression yet, so I just watched TV, watched and watched, and there was no public news about this, it was all meetings, reports, studies, silhouettes, visits, inspections, etc., and the things that the people were concerned about were not seen on TV." “

Zhang Dawei smiled, pondered for a moment, and said, "Isn't it fashionable to speed up your hands now?" Look at it, and some real stuff might come from there. ”

Zhu Li seemed to suddenly remember something, took out his mobile phone, opened WeChat, and said with some confusion: "A girlfriend of mine sent me a private message today, she said that there has been a recent spread of SARS virus in Wuhan, so I must be careful." ”

Zhang Dawei's heart sank and asked, "Where did your best friend Secretary General Yang know the information?" ”

Zhu Li said: "She has a wide range of connections, many friends, party, government, military and civilian studies, workers, peasants, businessmen and medicine, east, west, north, south, middle, up to temples and down to rivers and lakes, she is well-informed!" She especially warned me to only tell my family to be more careful and not to spread the word. ”

Zhang Dawei was silent, thinking: SARS? Spread? Wuhan? Is it possible? This disease was fought as early as 2003, could it be that the virus is still there? Still sneaking up on us?

At this time, Zhang Dawei's mobile phone rang, it was Zhu Yi calling, Zhu Yi was on night duty at Fumin Hospital, he said: "Brother-in-law, I have an urgent matter, I want to ask you for help." ”

Zhang Dawei said: "You talk about it. ”

Zhu Yi said: "A colleague of mine was just taken away by the police station. ”

Zhang Dawei said: "The police station will not arrest people casually, and they must have broken the law." ”

Zhu Yi said: "It's not a big deal, my colleague Gan Zitong, a doctor, he thinks that there is a possibility of the spread of the SARS virus in Wuhan now, and sent it to some relatives and friends through WeChat." ”

Zhang Dawei asked: "Then why did the police station take him away?" ”

Zhu Yi said: "The relevant departments asked the Supervision Department of Fumin Hospital to interview him, but Gan Zitong said that the virus and SARS sequences have the same similarity rate of 96%, which was found through his own testing, so he thinks that the increase in fever patients now may be the SARS virus!" The unit thought that he had violated the relevant regulations and spread information about the epidemic without authorization, so he reported the case! ”

Zhang Dawei said: "Oh! Your sister also showed me this information just now, and now it is difficult to distinguish the authenticity from the false, so it is difficult to say. ”

Zhu Li took Zhang Dawei's phone and asked, "Brother, what do you think?" ”

Zhu Yi said: "I initially think that it is also a virus, which may be more ferocious and cunning than SARS, and you should pay more attention." ”

A trace of horror flashed across Zhu Li's face, and he said: "You should also pay more attention, let's wait for the national expert team's statement, the key now is: what is the probability of human-to-human transmission of this virus?" She returned the phone to Zhang Dawei.

Zhu Yi said: "Please ask my brother-in-law to help accommodate him, so that the relevant departments can understand Dr. Gan Zitong." ”

Zhang Dawei didn't say anything, but just said three words: "I know." Now the Central Committee clearly stipulates that party and government leading cadres are not allowed to meddle in public procuratorial and judicial cases, and if they want to intervene or intervene, they must have a record. Although he would not directly respond to Zhu Yi's request to help intercede, he still learned the news from the relevant parties, and Dr. Gan Zitong of Fumin Hospital was summoned by the public security organs for spreading rumors through the Internet and was dealt with. This incident spread quickly among the medical staff of Fumin Hospital, and then spread to various social media on the Internet, setting off a lot of waves in the hospital circle and all walks of life.

Soon, the public security organs reprimanded Dr. Gan Zitong for spreading the virus information. This seems to have passed, but a few days later, an authoritative television station broadcast the news that Gan Zi and others were admonished and dealt with at an important time, in order to warn people not to believe rumors or spread rumors, and to trust the judgments and scientific conclusions of authoritative experts.

Zhang Dawei also read the news and said to Zhuli: "Look, the information of your best friend Secretary General Yang has been refuted on TV, whether the virus is spreading now, what the virus is, how to characterize it, how to protect it, and what methods to take to deal with it are still to be determined." Now stability is paramount, remember, don't pass on some unreliable messages. He said this, but he thought that there are facts in reality that are sometimes disfigured beyond recognition by many high-sounding or sacred things, and that rumors become truth when they are repeated or accepted by many people, and that truth is true when it is identified as lies and rumors by some intensified dullness and excessive vigilance and exaggeration.
