Chapter 195: Second Aftershock
Wang Xiaoxiao, Lu Li, Gao Fei and Zhou Lao all gathered in front of the computer screen to read the news on the webpage.
The page has images of collapsed houses in the rubble of collapsed houses, along with a catchy caption, "A 7.2-magnitude earthquake occurred near Thanh Peak Town, Southern Province W."
Zhou Jie looked at it and shook his head, "This earthquake is very large, and many people will be affected." ”
Gao Fei was very worried, "I have a classmate in college who is from W Province, but I don't know which county he is in, so I don't know if he will be fine." ”
Wang Xiaoxiao stared at the photos of the disaster area on the computer screen and sighed, "The Tangshan earthquake that shocked the world back then was only 7.8 magnitude, killing many people, and now the earthquake in Qingshan Town has a magnitude of 7.2, I don't know how many casualties and economic losses there will be." ”
Lu Li: "The Tangshan earthquake occurred in the early hours of the morning, people were asleep, so the death toll will be more, the Qingshan County earthquake occurred in the morning, the sky has been bright, people have gotten up to go to work, the number of casualties should be less than last time." ”
"We're going to get busy again." Zhou Lao sighed while slowly sorting out the information on his desk.
"W Province is far away from our Lianhai City, and it is not under our jurisdiction, so why should we be busy with disease control?"
"This is a fine tradition of our country, and there are precedents, if there is a major disaster or epidemic in any place, the disease control in each region will draw people to help, and our level of even the Haishi CDC is one of the best in the country, so the possibility of being dispatched to the disaster area for rescue is very high.
More than ten years ago, when I was still in the old epidemic prevention station, I participated in the earthquake rescue work in other provinces and cities......"
Before Zhou Lao's words fell, the landline bell on Gu Yanan's desk rang.
After answering the phone, Gu Yanan hurriedly prepared to leave the emergency office, and explained to everyone before leaving: "Director Yang just called me to attend the mid-level meeting of the CDC, about the earthquake rescue in Province W, you are waiting in the office, I will inform you if there is anything." ”
Half an hour later, the meeting ended, and Gu Yanan returned to the emergency office.
All the members of the emergency response team were waiting in the office for news from Gu Yanan.
"Just now Director Yang arranged the task at the meeting, and our Lianhai CDC dispatched two members of the emergency team to form the first batch of disease control and rescue teams with experts from the national CDC to rush to the disaster area, and set off from the airport two hours later."
Two members of the emergency team had to be dispatched, and everyone stared at Gu Yanan, not knowing who she wanted to arrange.
Gu Yanan's eyes swept over each team member, and his gaze finally fixed on Lu Li, "Director Yang and I recommended Lu Li to go to the disaster area with me. ”
Lu Li nodded solemnly, "Okay, I'll prepare now." ”
Goofy stood up from his desk, "I want to go too." ”
"I want to go too." Wang Xiaoxiao also stood up.
Gu Yanan had appreciation in his eyes, "Okay, I know your intentions, but the number of emergency rescue teams is limited, Lu Li and I are only the first batch, I can use the two of you as the reserve personnel of the subsequent batch of rescue teams, besides, all the members of our emergency team can't go, there may be emergencies in Lianhai City, and you have to do your own work during the time when Lu Li and I are away." ”
"Sister Yanan, how long are you going to go this time?"
"I don't know, but at least two weeks."
After explaining his work, Gu Yanan went home and packed his luggage to meet Lu Li at the airport.
Along with the personnel, there was also a large amount of relief supplies.
Three hours later, the plane arrived at the capital city of Province W.
Gu Yanan, Lu Li and the National Disease Control and Rescue Team that arrived first met up.
The disease control and rescue team composed of national disease control staff and disease control experts drawn from various provinces and cities has been integrated, and the earthquake emergency command center has arranged and distributed it in a unified manner.
Disease control personnel were divided into small groups to go to various disaster areas.
Gu Yanan and Lu Li, two national disease control experts, and two other disease control personnel from other provinces and cities formed a six-member disease control team and were assigned to Qingshan Town, the most severely affected town.
It is a long way to go from the provincial capital city to the remote town of Qingshan, and it usually takes three hours to drive, but now there is an earthquake, and the road conditions on the road are unknown, and I don't know how long it will take.
For the sake of safety, the disease control team rode with the troops who went to the rescue, and the military truck set off with the rescue team and relief supplies.
The rescue mission was urgent, everything was simple, and the relief materials and rescuers in the military truck compartment were mixed together, and they moved forward with the bumps in the mountain road.
Several people from the disease control team are from different places and are not familiar with each other, but Gu Yanan feels very familiar with one of the people in the national disease control team, like where he has seen it, and only after introducing himself did he know that the young man's name is Nan Zhiqiao.
Nan Zhiqiao in front of him is very handsome, tall and thin, with a warm and jade-like temperament, he is only in his 30s, and he is polite when he talks to everyone around him.
Although Gu Yanan had not had direct contact with Nan Zhiqiao before, he was very familiar with the name Nan Zhiqiao.
Nan Zhiqiao, a prominent figure in the field of infectious diseases in China's disease control system and even the world, an expert in China's disease control and infectious diseases, and a returnee doctor, has participated in the handling of many major domestic and international epidemics and published countless papers.
In addition to his enviable professional achievements, Nan Zhiqiao's personal experience is also a legend in people's mouths.
Legend has it that he is the behind-the-scenes leader and largest shareholder of the multinational conglomerate Nanmu Group, and the love story between him and his wife, who is also his female research assistant, is also talked about.
Driven by curiosity, Gu Yanan couldn't help but look at Nan Zhiqiao, who was also in the carriage.
Unexpectedly, Nan Zhiqiao's eyes also looked at her, the two met their eyes, Nan Zhiqiao nodded and smiled, and the eyes of this greeting were like acquaintances.
Gu Yanan also responded with a smile, wondering in his heart, am I so famous in the eyes of national disease control experts? He even knows me?
Gu Yanan recalled that a few years ago, there was an academic exchange meeting hosted by the National Center for Disease Control and Prevention, when Nan Zhiqiao was one of the speakers, Gu Yanan had participated, and the intersection of the two was that academic conference, and Nan Zhiqiao should not have any impression of her.
Could it be that Nan Zhiqiao has read my published paper? Thinking of this, Gu Yanan felt that his academic achievements were also very good, and it was very possible to be noticed for this reason.
Gu Yanan was thinking wildly in his heart, when suddenly the military truck shook violently, followed by a sudden brake.
With the inertia, a large package in the carriage that was not fixed collapsed to one side, and seeing Gu Yanan being hit, one hand suddenly grabbed her arm and pulled it to the side.
The package fell and smashed beside Gu Yanan.
Gu Yanan was shocked, and saw that the person who pulled her away was actually Nan Zhiqiao, and before she could thank her, the driver in front shouted: "Aftershock!" There was a rockslide in front of us, and everyone sat firmly. ”
