Chapter 137: Isolated Village

Lianhai Center for Disease Control and Prevention, Emergency Office.

Early in the morning, Gu Yanan walked into the door of the office and saw Wang Xiaoxiao with a mysterious and gossip smile.

"Sister Yanan, just now at the gate of our unit, I saw that Captain Nan sent you to work, could it be that the two of you have developed to ...... now?"

Wang Xiaoxiao clasped his hands together and made an intimate gesture.

Gu Yanan patted Wang Xiaoxiao's shoulder, and sighed with hatred, "If your gossip is used in scientific research, you will definitely be able to publish a few more papers." ”

Wang Xiaoxiao didn't care, and continued to gossip, "Put the paper in advance, are you already ......?"

"You may imagine it, but the truth must be different from what you imagined."

Gu Yanan sat down at his desk, and as soon as he turned on the computer, a message popped up on the epidemic network.

"Clusters of deaths of unknown causes were found in Wangjia Village and Lijia Village, Qingcheng Mountain, Qingcheng County, Lianhai City."

Click on the details of the message, and find that the report is from the Qingcheng County Health Center, and there is the specific contact number of the person who reported it.

Gu Yanan did not call the contact number of the reporter, but called the number of the Qingcheng County Center for Disease Control and Prevention.

The person who answered the phone was Section Chief Li of the Qingcheng County Center for Disease Control and Prevention, who was in charge of the on-site investigation, and Gu Yanan asked about the news that the epidemic had just appeared on the Internet.

Section Chief Li, Li Kai, a lean old man in his fifties, was a local on-site disease investigation expert when the CDC was still an old epidemic prevention station, and he was very familiar with various villages in Qingcheng County.

Li Kai's voice was anxious, "Director Gu, I was just about to call you, in the middle of the night yesterday, our county CDC received a call from the town health center, saying that there were clusters of deaths of unknown causes in Wangjia Village and Lijia Village at the foot of Qingcheng Mountain. ”

"The plague? Where are you now? ”

"The people from our county disease control are in Wangjia Village, and two families are dead, I have a photo of the deceased here, and I will send it to you now."

Electronic photos of the scene were quickly uploaded to Gu Yanan's computer desktop.

The deceased almost all looked the same, with a purple-black face, bleeding from the corners of their mouths, half-open eyes, and bloodshot eyeballs......

Everyone in the emergency office gathered in front of Gu Yanan's computer.

Wang Xiaoxiao felt terrified just by looking at the photo, "This death is too terrifying, just like the death of a patient with Ebola hemorrhagic fever in Africa that I saw on the Internet before." ”

Lu Li was bold, staring at the photo of the deceased on the computer, and carefully analyzed, "Could it be hemorrhagic fever?" I remember that the vicinity of Mount Qingcheng was a natural foci of hemorrhagic fever with renal syndrome caused by hantavirus. ”

Gao Fei retorted, "Just now, Section Chief Li of Qingcheng County Disease Control suspected that it was plague, and if you look at the appearance of the deceased, it also meets the symptoms of the 'Black Death'." ”

Wang smiled: "The plague, formerly known as the 'Black Death', is similar to the death of a person who died of severe hemorrhagic fever, but from the appearance of the deceased, the pathogen of infection cannot be distinguished. ”

"But there has never been an outbreak of plague near Mount Qingcheng." Lu Li's implication is that he still thinks that hemorrhagic fever is more likely.

Zhou Jie: "You are still young, you may not know that there has been no plague epidemic in Qingcheng Mountain in recent decades, but more than 100 years ago, that is, in the late Qing Dynasty, there was a pneumonic plague near Qingcheng Mountain, and the epidemic was quite serious, and several foreign experts came. ”

"Old Zhou, how do you know?"

"Let you read more books on a regular basis, there are records in the literature."

Gu Yanan nodded, "Elder Zhou is right, because of the age, there are few records of that epidemic, but Qingcheng Mountain was indeed the natural source of plague, plague has not been prevalent in the human world for many years, and the basic antibodies in the population are lacking, and now that it has reappeared, the epidemic will be more serious." ”

Gu Yanan continued to contact Section Chief Li by phone, "Have you collected the specimen?" ”

"The liver, spleen, lungs, heart and blood of the corpse were taken, and the close contacts took venous blood, sputum samples and throat swabs, if our county CDC is in accordance with the classic 'four-step test' method, it will take 3 days, and the city CDC has a PCR rapid test method......"

"Well, after the specimen is delivered, the results will be available in 3 hours."

"Director Gu, the scene also needs the support of experts in the city."

"Okay, I'll bring people and equipment over."

Ending the call, Gu Yanan was about to start assigning tasks, and the phone rang again.

Caller ID Gu Jiashu.

"Little sister, our hospital has just received a suspected case of plague, and we need your CDC to send someone to take a look."

A wave has not settled, and another wave has risen.

Before the matter of Qingcheng Mountain was clarified, another suspected plague patient appeared in the city.

Is there a connection between the two?

"The patient is from the vicinity of Qingcheng Mountain?"

"No, it has nothing to do with Qingcheng Mountain, the patient is from the city, the owner of an antique shop."

It seems that the two are not connected.

If so, the plague outbreak after outbreak made the situation even more serious.

"Brother, I'll let Zhou Jie and Gao Fei go over, and they will arrange the specific things."

"What about you?"

"I went to Qingcheng Mountain, and more than a dozen people had died there, and the county disease control couldn't deal with it."

Lu Li followed Gu Yanan to Wangjia Village, Qingcheng Mountain, Zhou Jie and Gao Fei went to the First People's Hospital of Lianhai City, and Wang Xiaoxiao stayed in the emergency office and was responsible for testing with colleagues in the laboratory.

——

Lianhai City, Qingcheng Mountain, Wangjia Village.

A striking isolation cordon has been set up at the entrance of the village.

Gu Yanan and Lu left the city CDC site and parked at the entrance of Wangjia Village, wearing biosafety protective clothing, carrying sampling boxes, and walking through the village road.

The snow had melted in the previous two days, and the roads in the village were muddy.

The home of the first case, Wang Dequan.

Wang De's family was also cordoned off by the county CDC.

Gu Yanan crossed the cordon and walked into the courtyard of Wang De's family.

Several staff members of the county CDC and Section Chief Li were disinfecting Wang Dequan's home, and a large amount of disinfectant water and disinfectant powder were sprinkled around the yard.

The air was filled with the smell of disinfectant powder.

Seeing Gu Yanan, Section Chief Li stepped forward to explain the current work progress.

"The autopsy specimens and the specimens of close contacts have been sent to the municipal disease control and control, and now they should have been sent to the laboratory, we have disinfected the surroundings of the deceased's homes, and also publicized the villagers, the village is currently isolated, and the villagers are not allowed to move around at will to avoid more infections, which is also the case in Lijia Village next door."

"It's good, the sooner you isolate, the easier it is to control the epidemic."

"After our investigation, Wang Dequan is the first case of the epidemic, on the morning of November 10, he was found dead at home, the next day, that is, on the 11th, relatives and friends held a funeral for Wang Dequan, many people participated in the funeral, on the night of the funeral, several people who participated in the funeral fell ill one after another, and died within two days, the deceased now has Wang Dequan's younger brother and daughter-in-law, Wang Dequan's own sister and sister-in-law, and several neighbors who participated in the funeral."

"The situation in Lijia Village next door?"

"Wang Dequan's sister-in-law Li Dabao is from Lijia Village next door, and there are currently three deceased people in Lijia Village, two of which are Li Dabao and his daughter-in-law Wang Xiaohua, who attended the funeral of the first case Wang Dequan, their son is in college in another province, and he doesn't know about it, and he can be regarded as escaping, but Li Dabao's neighbor showed symptoms yesterday and died in the hospital after going to the town health center."
