Chapter 438: Go to the crematorium
Gu Yanan asked in surprise: "All the people in the hearse are dead?" From the hearse transporting Li Erzhu's body to the patient's death today, they must have had many close contacts in the past three days, have these people investigated? ”
"Not yet." Old Zhou's voice was anxious, "The number of patients here in Qingcheng County Hospital is increasing, and the flow data of patients has not been investigated clearly, and the information of close contacts is even more unavailable." ”
Gu Yanan knew that the people on the hearse could be staff from the crematorium or people from a third-party contractor, no matter which one they were, they had a wider contact area than the villagers and had a stronger transmission ability, so they had to identify and isolate close contacts in time, otherwise the spread of the epidemic was inevitable.
"Old Zhou, you and Gao Fei continue to check the patient's condition in the county hospital, and I will take Lu to investigate the close contact of the hearse personnel, and contact us in time if there is a situation."
After hanging up the phone, Xiao Chu immediately came up, "I will also go with you to investigate the situation of the hearse personnel." ”
Lu Li had already speculated about her arrangement from Gu Yanan's tone just now, so he said to Xiao Chu: "The situation on the hearse side of Qingcheng County is unknown, and there is a certain risk in the investigation. Although the epidemic situation in Lijia Village is relatively serious, the situation of patients and close contacts has been clarified, and it is safer for you to stay here to help Section Chief Li arrange work. ”
Xiao Chu insisted on following Gu Yanan's side, "Sister Yanan, I will do a good job of protection, there will be no danger." ”
"Xiao Chu, haven't you always wanted to see how to exterminate rats and fleas on a large scale in a short period of time, Section Chief Li is an expert in this area, you follow him to learn hard." Gu Yanan knows where to persuade people effectively.
Xiao Chu hesitated for a moment, and finally nodded in agreement, "Well, listen to Sister Yanan's arrangement." ”
——
Qingcheng County Crematorium.
Gu Yanan and Lu left the on-site flow shunting of the city's disease control and arrived at the gate of the crematorium, showed their work cards, and smoothly entered the office area to find the person in charge of the crematorium.
Qingcheng County Crematorium is located in the eastern suburbs, also called the eastern suburbs funeral home, covering an area of nearly 100 acres, a few years ago restructuring, was privately contracted, and is now a private enterprise.
Responsible for receiving Gu Yanan and his party was the manager of the funeral home, a middle-aged man in his 40s, surnamed Zhang, slightly chubby, and spoke very politely.
Gu Yanan directly explained his intentions, "Manager Zhang, 4 days ago, that is, on January 3 this year, your funeral home sent a hearse to Lijia Village to pick up Li Erzhu's body and ashes. Li Erzhu was confirmed to have died of pneumonic plague, and the three hearse workers who had been in contact with him had just been diagnosed with pneumonic plague at the county hospital. Now we are going to investigate all the people who have had contact with Li Erzhu's body and the three hearse workers, and we ask for your cooperation. ”
Manager Zhang was so shocked that he couldn't speak, he only knew that some employees were sick and asked for leave to be hospitalized, but he didn't expect that three had died, and they still died of the virulent infectious disease pneumonic plague.
"Plague?! Is it really the plague? Oh my God, what's wrong with Qingcheng County? Last winter, there were plague deaths, why is it coming again this winter? Comrades from disease control and control, is there someone who has gone to rob the thousand-year-old tomb again? Why don't you want these people to live for money? ”
Lu Li: "We will investigate the source of the plague this time, no matter where the source of the epidemic is, this pneumonic plague can infect people, and it is very contagious, so we must find close contacts as soon as possible." ”
Manager Zhang nodded again and again, "Okay, I'll cooperate, I'll ask the logistics department to check immediately." ”
Gu Yanan reminded Manager Zhang, "You should also issue a notice in the whole company to inform the employees of the current situation, so that the people who have been in contact with the three hearse workers take the initiative to report, and you cooperate with our disease control to do a good job of personnel registration." ”
"Okay, you can cooperate with it."
Manager Zhang immediately followed Gu Yanan's instructions and started to act.
The life trajectories of the three hearse workers in the first four days of their lives were gradually investigated.
On the day that Li Erzhu's body was picked up from Lijia Village and brought to the funeral home, the three hearse staff members all came into contact with Li Erzhu's body.
In the process of sorting out the body, the body cosmetic surgeon, the service center guide, and the cremator all have a close contact history.
The hearse staff developed fever two days after touching the body.
After the hearse driver had fever symptoms, he personally went to a pharmacy near the community to buy medicine, and then asked the company for leave to rest at home for a day and a night, during which he was taken care of by his family.
The driver's fever became serious, and he was sent to Qingcheng County Hospital by his family, where he died after ineffective treatment.
The other two on-board staff were in a similar situation, one of whom also went to the county theater to watch a movie during the fever.
Another After sending Li Erzhu's ashes, he accompanied his girlfriend to a shopping mall in Lianhai City to buy clothes.
Gu Yanan looked at the preliminary investigation results and felt very bad.
Cinemas, large shopping malls.
These are densely populated places where the investigation of close contacts is very heavy.
If it is difficult, find a solution.
There was not enough manpower for disease control, so Gu Yanan decided to seek help from the neighborhood community through the channel of the city government, which is the most basic unit and the most effective means to find people.
Gu Yanan told Director Yang of the center's opinions, and the next coordination work was carried out by Director Yang.
Ending the call with Director Yang, Gu Yanan's mobile phone rang again.
Caller ID is the number of the emergency office.
The one who can use this number at this time should be Wang Xiaoxiao.
connected the mobile phone, and sure enough, Wang Xiaoxiao's voice came.
"Sister Yanan, there is new news on the Internet just now, the First People's Hospital of the city reported two suspected cases of pneumonic plague, I just called to communicate with them, and it was Dr. Gu who answered the phone, he said that the patient's symptoms were highly suspected of pneumonic plague, and the hospital laboratory department used plague rapid detection reagents, and the initial screening was positive."
Gu Yanan felt that his head was big, and the plague patients were initially screened out in the city, and the trend of the spread of the epidemic was very serious.
"Rapid test reagent positive for initial screening? What kind of rapid test do they use? Gu Yanan asked.
Wang Xiaoxiao was slightly stunned, "I don't know, I didn't ask about the detection method." I asked some of the patients questions about the flow of the patient. The two patients who tested positive for the initial screening are both permanent residents of Lianhai Development Zone, and their work units are also in the development zone, and they have not gone out in recent days and have not been to Qingcheng County. ”
Gu Yanan immediately thought that one of the hearse staff had accompanied his girlfriend to a large shopping mall in Lianhai City, and this shopping mall was in the development zone.
"Have the two suspected pneumonic plague patients recently visited Paradise Shopping Mall on Wuyang Road in the development zone?" Gu Yanan asked urgently.
"I don't know, I just talked to Dr. Gu on the phone about some patients, and such a detailed question needs to be done for case investigation. Sister Yanan, do you want me to go to the hospital to do the flow of these two patients? ”
"No, I'll go myself."
