228. Minions of the Red Death
Jiang Han looked in the mirror and said to me worriedly: "Sanqing, we won't be like Haoyu." "I was silent, at this time, I didn't know what to say, it was winter, and there was an old tree outside, but the trunk was bare, and there was no life.
I feel that Jiang Han and I are like the old tree outside, but the old tree can still grow new shoots in spring, and the two of us don't know if we can survive until spring.
"It's okay, we have to trust the doctor, the doctor will definitely have a way." I squeezed out a smile, and then comforted Jiang Han, "Sanqing, you said that Haoyu is out of danger now?" Jiang Han raised his head and looked at me.
"He's so serious, he shouldn't be so fast." I thought about it and said, seeing that I said this, Jiang Han didn't say anything more, she lay on the bed again and began to look at the ceiling.
I also took out my phone and started to scroll through the news, to be honest, I didn't have this habit before, but in order to know if this disease has appeared in other places, I can only scroll through the news every day.
On today's news, a new type of disease was reported, because at the beginning, there will be a scarlet red rash, and at the onset of the disease, the rash will rupture, and then there will be blood spurting out, if the rescue is not timely, the patient is easy to die in a short time, so experts will determine this disease as red death.
This disease first broke out by Wu You, hundreds of people were sent to the hospital for isolation because of this disease, and more than a dozen people were killed by the disease because they were not rescued in time.
The scary thing about the Red Death is that it is difficult to diagnose, and there is an asymptomatic incubation period, the exact duration of which experts have not yet answered, but doctors have developed diagnostic reagents.
With this diagnostic reagent, it is possible to detect the presence of this scarlet virus in the blood, and in general, people who have red death may have an elevated body temperature and symptoms that may be suspicious of a cold, such as coughing.
Now the above has already decided whether to lock Wu You off the city, after reading this news, I called Wei Huaiqi: "Huaiqi, have you watched the news?" "What's the news, you mean the Red Death?" Wei Huaiqi said suddenly.
"That's right, Jiang Han and I may have had the Red Death, and we are still under observation in the hospital, and Jiang Han already has symptoms, I guess I can't run away, you guys try not to go out these days, no, maybe a few months." I said solemnly.
"Okay, I'll talk to Uncle Gu later, and ask him not to release people into Jiajia Mansion again." "So be it, hang up first." With that, I hung up.
Not long after hanging up the phone, Ke Wenhua walked in fully armed, he took our temperature as usual, and then asked about our situation, and learned that Jiang Han's face also had a red rash, he couldn't help frowning.
"We've now established that as soon as you have this red rash, as short as a few hours or as long as a few days, you will have acute symptoms, respiratory failure, red rash bursting and spurting blood, which we call the red death sign." Ke Wenhua said suddenly.
"Doctor Ke, how is Haoyu now?" Jiang Han raised his head and looked at Ke Wenhua, Ke Wenhua shook his head: "Miss Jiang, you have to be mentally prepared, Jiang Haoyu has a serious infection in both lungs, and he may not last long." ”
"What, Haoyu is actually not good?" Jiang Han's eyes widened and said, Ke Wenhua was silent, and then said to Jiang Han: "Miss Jiang, I think you should still worry about your situation first, and I will have someone take a picture of your lungs later." ”
"Okay, I got it." Jiang Han's face showed a sad look, Ke Wenhua wanted to say something, but I stopped him: "Doctor Ke, have you found out the source of this virus?" ”
"Not yet, but the first group of people to get these diseases have all been to Wuyou's Huaxi Seafood Market, so it is suspected that the source of the disease may come from there, and it is now being investigated." Ke Wenhua said to me.
"Seafood market? It's unlikely that the virus came from seafood. I asked a little puzzled, "That seafood market not only sells seafood, but it is not convenient for me to disclose the specifics, you will also follow Miss Jiang to shoot a film in a while, and I will ask the nurse to take you there at that time." Ke Wenhua left after speaking.
The door of the ward was closed, and the silence in the room suddenly returned, and after only a few minutes, there was a sudden low sobbing in the ward, and I didn't need to look to know that it was Jiang Han crying in a low voice.
Seeing Jiang Han like this, I also feel a little distressed, but the disease caused by this virus, Zhu You is not of any use at all, at most it can make the sick person live a few more days, but what is the use of this?
After thinking about it, I stepped out of the hospital bed and came to Jiang Han's bedside, since both of us were infected, then I could have no scruples and hug Jiang Han directly.
Although I can't go to the cure, I can still give Jiang Han a broad chest, so that she can have someone to rely on when she is sad and desperate, Jiang Han threw herself in my arms, and finally couldn't help it, and began to cry loudly.
This cry makes people feel a little sad, and it makes me feel a little helpless, everyone is equal in the face of disease, whether it is rich or poor, and no matter what your identity is, as long as you come into contact, you may be infected.
In the doctor's office not far from us, several doctors were arguing about the Red Death, and now the source of the disease has not been found, and there is no precedent for how to treat it, so they have retreated.
"Ridiculous! At this time, how can we retreat, as long as we put on this white dress for a day, we will stick to this post, and whoever mentions this topic again will simply not have to go to work in the future. Director Ke said sharply.
With Ke Wenhua's roar, the office was quiet all of a sudden, and after a long while, someone spoke: "Director, now the number of patients continues to increase, but what should we do if we don't have enough beds?" A little doctor asked tremblingly.
"Extra beds, if it really doesn't work, our office, as well as all the rooms that can be vacated in the hospital, will be transformed into wards, we can't let patients not see the sick, I will go to the hospital to apply again, see if I can borrow the wards of other departments." Ke Wenhua made his decision.
The little doctor listened to Ke Wenhua's words, frowned and asked, "Director, change the office into a ward, then where are we going to work?" "During the special period, the patients are the mainstay, that is, the corridor, we can all work, by the way, don't contact with your family recently, I have memorized it!" Ke Wenhua said solemnly.
"You all have families, call your family, say you can't go home during this time, first report to them that they are safe, and then tell them to go out as little as possible, take care of themselves, and don't need me to teach the rest, if there is no problem, if not, the meeting will be dismissed." Ke Wenhua said and glanced around.
No one said anything more, Ke Wenhua nodded, and walked out of the office, as soon as Ke Wenhua left, the rest of the doctors began to discuss, but as soon as they discussed a few words, Ke Wenhua pushed the door back again.
Ke Wenhua came with colleagues, as well as colleagues from the epidemic prevention department, they were all wearing thick protective clothing, "Let me introduce to you, this is a colleague from the epidemic prevention department, come to support us, and cooperate well with others, I have something to do, so I will leave first." Ke Wenhua left after speaking.
Someone from the Epidemic Prevention Division came to help? The doctors in the room couldn't help but be stunned for a moment, but they quickly reacted, and then took their colleagues from the epidemic prevention department to familiarize themselves with the work here.
With the increase in patients, they are indeed too short of manpower, and now there are people from the epidemic prevention department to help, which is undoubtedly a relief in the snow, just when the people in the epidemic prevention department have just finished getting familiar with the work, colleagues from other departments will soon come to help.
For a time, the small infectious disease ward was full of angels in white wearing protective clothing, and due to the special situation, the route of transmission of the virus was not completely determined, so everyone must be fully armed.
And a set of protective clothing, if you put it on, you can't take it off easily, if you take off the protective clothing, then the protective clothing will be scrapped, and the cost of each protective clothing is very high, so they can only try not to drink water, to avoid having to take off the protective clothing because they have to go to the toilet.
It was two days of work in a row, and all the medical staff were busy checking the newly admitted patients, while I was in the ward, and I could only watch the news boringly every day.
It was originally a two-person ward, but there were two beds and two little girls about the same age as us.
Both of these little girls have been diagnosed with the Red Death, but the situation is relatively mild for the time being, and I chatted with them for a few words, knowing that they are also college students.
The taller girl is called Li Shuang, a student of the Department of Finance of Taihua University, and the short-haired girl is called Pang Xuefei, a student of the English Department of Taihua University.
As soon as they entered the ward, the mentality of the two people was relatively good, and they probably didn't realize the seriousness of the disease, so they all played with their mobile phones and didn't pay much attention to it.
A few days later, the news of the Red Death on the news was overwhelming, but experts had already made recommendations.
Because the disease can be transmitted through the respiratory tract, experts advise the public to go out less often, and to wear a mask when going out, and avoid going to crowded places.
But now that the Chinese New Year is coming, many people have to take the train home, I am afraid that this red death will also take the opportunity to spread wildly, although the news reports are overwhelming, but there are still some elderly people who do not care.
Soon it was the twenty-ninth day, and many people who came back from other places for the New Year returned to their hometowns happily, ready to welcome the arrival of the New Year.
And in the places that these people can't see, the Red Death is like a devil, sneaking towards them step by step, and with the ringing of the New Year's bell, hundreds of people have not escaped the clutches of the Red Death.
And Jiang Han's condition also began to get serious, with symptoms of cough and high fever, and the red rash on his body became a little transparent, as if it was about to break at any time.
