Chapter 680: Unknown Asylum [Asking for a Monthly Pass, Asking for a Subscription]
"Tongye, there is a new situation from FBM, they have admitted a number of suspected patients with progressive muscular ossification all over Citi......"
As the Tianji Bureau was about to hold a new press conference on the Qing'an City disaster, a breaking news reached Dahua City.
As a result, the ABP suddenly changed its color, and the press conference bore the brunt of the original process and content, and several personnel of the Special Operations Department, including Li Zhenjing and Zhang Jingjing, who were going to appear at the press conference, hurried to the conference room of the operations center.
Because of Tongye's opposition, no one from the Spell Department was ready to attend the press conference.
Whether it is Tongye, Lou Xiaoning, Xiaoxu, Wang Ruoxiang and other front-line soldiers, they have never felt that this matter is over.
So when something bad happens, there's no surprise, but a lot of sighs, and I really hope that my hunch is wrong.
However, one bad news after another came through the GOA, like some dominoes had collapsed.
"The first suspected patient was admitted to the country of Rus......"
"There are suspicious reports in the United Kingdom!"
"News from the country of Gaul, they also have doctors who receive suspected patients."
"These patients had the same imaging symptoms on their x-rays, consistent with progressive muscular ossification."
"The number of suspected patients in Citigroup exceeded 100, and the test results of alkaline phosphatase and bone-specific alkaline phosphatase of the first batch of patients came out, and the levels were all abnormally elevated. This means that their osteoblasts are abnormally active, and bone is constantly forming throughout the body, which can already be diagnosed as progressive muscular ossification, but these patients ossify more quickly. ”
"The epidemiological survey they did found that 78 per cent of the existing patients were practitioners or students of Egyptology......"
"Patients have a history of exposure to the 'pyramid', words, images, videos, and recalls. In particular, 100% of ordinary people who are not related to Egyptology have consulted the pyramids three days before the onset of the disease, and 79% of them mentioned the pyramid of Khufu. ”
"Egyptology and pyramid-related information on the Internet has been blocked to the maximum."
"The number of suspected patients in Citigroup exceeded 1,000, and the number of suspected patients in Russ exceeded 500......"
……
A week after the disaster, the normal operation of Qing'an City is far from being restored.
Whether it is safe is still in question, and there is still a lot of investigation and prevention work to be done, so the evacuated people are not yet able to return to their homes.
The Qing'an Frontline Combat Base is located in an office building of the Tianji Sub-Bureau in the urban area, and in this conference room at this time, some cadres of the Sunny Squad sit at the conference table to participate in the meeting. They haven't left Qing'an these days, and they've been busy here.
Lou Xiaoning was a little irritable, Chang Qianhang's face was extremely haggard, Xiao Xu was still calm and stiff, and Wang Ruoxiang and Uncle Dan, the two people who studied medicine, had the most heavy expressions.
Unknown diseases with a high suspicion of progressive muscular ossification are occurring around the world, with an unknown mode of transmission, with more than 10,000 cases worldwide in just one day since the first case was reported by FBM. This number is still rising rapidly, and it is not known how many more patients have not yet been seen and not counted.
What will be a multi-party video conference will be held, not only from the headquarters of Dahua Tianji, but also with the participation of Citigroup, Britain and other countries and departments. And before this conference, there was a small meeting within their Tianji Bureau.
In the conference screen on the wall, there is Tongye, as well as a group of experts and professors from the medical team this time.
"Alkaline phosphatase, bone-specific alkaline phosphatase is more than 10 times normal."
Progressive muscular ossification belongs to rheumatology in terms of disease classification, so the head of the medical team is Professor Lu Qiqing, an expert in rheumatology, and there are also personnel in epidemiology, orthopedic surgery, and genetics.
Professor Lu Qiqing has a wealth of clinical knowledge in the field of rheumatology, as well as cutting-edge academic research, and is an authority on immune-mediated diseases of the musculoskeletal system, autoimmune diseases, and hereditary connective tissue diseases.
"In the physiological skeletal development period of children, alkaline phosphatase activity can be 1 to 2 times higher than that of normal people, but these patients are 10 times on average, reaching 550~1250U/L. This math is very scary, basically the patient's entire body is being converted into bone, which is irreversible. ”
Lou Xiaoning They are not from a medical background, so they can only listen to a general meaning.
In the conference room in Qing'an, only the two doctors, Wang Ruoxiang and Uncle Dan, could understand what kind of terrible it was......
Not only can it cause ossification of the whole body, but it can also cause serious problems such as hepatobiliary, blood vessels, parathyroid glands, etc., which is much more serious than FOR.
"We don't have a cure." When Professor Lu said this, he felt a deep sense of helplessness.
Even in the face of ordinary FOR, humans currently have no cure, and now the situation is more complicated and shrouded in fog, and the best way may be to break the anomalous forces behind it, but they lack a strong clue to break through the situation.
But...... There is a rather strange situation, whether good or bad, but perhaps one should be thankful for, that there are no such cases in their country so far.
This is of course a good thing, but things go wrong, and in such a world, it can also hide a great danger.
Many departments such as the Tianji Bureau have been conducting a comprehensive investigation, especially controlling and isolating relevant experts, professors and students of Egyptology, as well as paying close attention to a large number of practitioners, in case any of them are members of the Little Ram Order or become ill, and there is no abnormal situation for the time being.
"What do you think about that?" Tong Ye asked, "FBM they are very confused about our situation, we will have to come up with at least one guess later." ”
"I think it's possible that the rain played a role." Lou Xiaoning said this idea, which made many people nod, "Those goatheads are afraid of her and don't dare to make trouble on our side." ”
It's just that Xiao Xu doesn't agree, "She said that if she left, she would leave, and she wouldn't still protect us secretly, unlike her." ”
"Let's tell the FBM people that it's possible." Tongye settled, "Whether it is Shi Yu or not, her contribution is great." ”
Perhaps it was because of the protection of an unknown force that none of them became ill, and even the test results of Chang Qianhang were normal.
This time the disease is likely to be "petrification", and its mode of cause is likely to be the "pyramid", which reminds them of nightmares. Last time, the nightmare disease also caused the spread within the Dongzhou Tianji Bureau, and in the end, it was very sacrificed. They all have to be careful, but they all know what the pyramid is, and they all have a history of contact recently.
For the time being, the most worrying thing is Chang Qianhang, who mutters strangely from time to time: "Don't think about the pyramid, don't know about it......"
