Chapter 275: Self-inflicted

The words of Minister of Health, Labor and Welfare Yukio Kato hit the Prime Minister like a thunderbolt on the head of the prime minister, at this time when an infectious disease occurs, which country is still willing to accept refugees from Dongying?

The prime minister looked nervous and asked, "Is there any media aware of this?" ”

Yukio Kato shook his head and said: "Not yet, at this time, the media are attracted by the second major earthquake, and there are many casualties in the earthquake, and no one pays attention to these few who have died of illness." ”

The Prime Minister breathed a sigh of relief and asked, "How long has this outbreak been going on?" How did 5 people die before they were reported? ”

Yukio Kato's face suddenly became gloomy, and he said: "My lord, unlike the virus two years ago, the virus is very ferocious this time, and these five people are said to have been ill last night and died this morning." ”

"What?!" Kazuhide Mizukawa on the side exclaimed, "Doesn't this pneumonia virus have an incubation period of 14 days?" And after the onset of the disease, he didn't die of illness in such a short time, right? ”

Yukio Kato said, "I asked a team led by Professor Fukuda of Tokyo Medical University to conduct a virus analysis, and the preliminary study found that the virus replicates 100 times more than it did two years ago! ”

"100 times, how can it be so fast?" Mizukawa Kazuhide's face changed.

"Hey, Professor Fukuda believes that the genes of this virus should have been artificially modified, that is, I am afraid that someone will take advantage of the earthquake to be unfavorable to me."

"What country would know that we were going to have a big earthquake and therefore release this virus in the first place?"

"The scariest thing is that this virus seems to spread very quickly......"

The two of them were talking word by word, not noticing that the prime minister's face was already sinking like water at this time, his eyes flashed with some strange light, and his hands were tightly clenched together.

Mizukawa Kazuhide inadvertently caught a glimpse of the prime minister's situation, and couldn't help but be stunned, and asked, "My lord, what instructions do you have on this matter?" ”

The prime minister looked at Yukio Kato and said, "You must immediately block the news and treat these cases as acute pneumonia."

At this moment, we must not leak the existence of such a virulent infectious disease in Dongying to the outside world. ”

"Hey, my subordinates must make sure that the message is blocked."

Kazuhide Mizukawa realized and said, "That's right, if this news is leaked at this time, countries will never accept our refugees again." ”

The Prime Minister said, "Yes, for the sake of the future of the Japanese clan, we must choose to conceal it. ”

Yukio Kato said, "My lord, do we still need to trace the source of the virus? ”

"We are running out of time, and the biggest priority at the moment is to find a way to get more people out of the archipelago. Kato-kun, let's gag all those who know as soon as possible. ”

"Hey, I'll do it."

The prime minister saw Yukio Kato leave, turned to Kazuhide Mizukawa again, and said, "Mizukawa-kun, hurry up and arrange the matter of the TV speech, I will announce it on time." ”

"Hey."

When Mizukawa Kazuhide left, the prime minister grabbed a cup and smashed it on the ground.

Immediately, he picked up the phone and dialed out.

"Wu Tianjun, you have committed an unforgivable crime against the Great Dongying Empire!"

Wu Tianzongnan on the other end of the phone said confusedly: "My lord, what happened?" ”

"The No. 3 virus you researched there has leaked!"

"What? This...... No, last night's earthquake has buried ...... there."

"You know there's a leak, don't you? Why don't you report it to me? ”

Wu Tian Zongnan explained: "My lord, the main researcher of No. 3 tried to bring out the No. 3 tank from under the rubble last night, but the others were crushed by the collapsed house.

Later, although the people were rescued, the No. 3 tank should still be buried underneath, so I asked the people from the research institute to go home and find someone else to bury it completely. ”

"Yaga, you idiot! Knowing about this, it is not the first time to isolate everyone in the institute and seal down that area. ”

"My lord, the No. 3 vaccine is about to start phase I clinical trials, otherwise it will be directly approved for use, right?"

The Prime Minister asked hesitantly, "Are these vaccines dangerous?" It doesn't cause healthy people to get infected, right? ”

"There is no danger, it has been verified in the early stage, and the vaccine is safe, but according to the usual practice, it still needs to go through phase III clinical trials, and it can not be officially marketed until these procedures are completed."

"How fast is the vaccine being produced?"

"The current production line is built with a daily output of 60,000 copies, and if we want to expand it, we will have to invest ......."

"Immediately produce at full speed and give priority to the Self-Defense Forces."

"Hey."

After hanging up the phone, the prime minister sat back in his seat with some weakness and did not speak for a long time.

After a long time, he muttered, "Doing your own evil......"

……

……

August 21, 2022, 12 noon Dongying time.

Prime Minister Dongying's televised speech shook the whole of Dongying and the whole world.

One stone stirred up a thousand waves, and Dongying was in chaos in an instant.

Dongying was originally a country with a high incidence of suicide, knowing that the archipelago was going to sink and the country's homeland was going to disappear into the vast sea, many Dongying people directly chose to commit suicide.

However, there were many more people, who immediately flocked to the airport and the dock.

Those who were able to leave the archipelago were airplanes or ships, and some wealthy people went the fastest, after all, they had private jets in the first place.

Dongying is the country with the largest number of visa-free countries in the world, and 190 of the 195 countries that have diplomatic relations with Dongying are visa-free for holders of Dongying passports.

Therefore, as long as they leave the archipelago, the people of Toying can enter almost any country.

No one wants to heed the Prime Minister's call to wait for the government to send someone to register their intention to migrate.

In fact, government civil servants have already left their minds, and no one wants to do this kind of work.

In the face of such a catastrophe, although the Prime Minister's message stated that it would take 48 days to happen, who would wait until the last minute to leave?

In case, if you can't leave when the time comes, won't you be broken along with the archipelago?

Du Qiu was studying the matter of genetic currency, and Xinghai suddenly sent a reminder.

"What's wrong?"

"Sir, look at this information."

The information presented by Xinghai is that Dongying has an enhanced version of the new lung virus spreading at this moment, and at this moment, Prime Minister Dongying has released a televised speech asking for help from the world.

"So, these viruses were created by the Dongying people themselves?"

"Yes, it's still a research institute under Wutian Pharmaceutical. They have also developed a corresponding vaccine and are about to start clinical trials. ”

A cold glint flashed in Du Qiu's eyes, and he said, "They are trying to use this virus as a biological weapon, it's really a dog that can't change eating."

You immediately publish this information on our official website, and attach the evidence of Wutian Pharmaceutical's development of this virus, we can't watch the virus spread from Dongying! ”

"Sir, will this lead to countries not accepting Dongying refugees, and will all the people of Dongying be killed in the subsequent land sinking?"

"This is Dongying's own sin, and he can't live!" Du Qiu said with some annoyance.

After finishing speaking, he felt that the ordinary people of Dongying were too innocent.

"Xinghai, hand over the vaccine information of Wutian to Komura Jiannan and them for study, and we will strive to come up with a truly usable vaccine as soon as possible.

In addition, we have donated a batch of rapid virus test devices and protective clothing to all countries that accept refugees from Dongying, which are used at various ports of entry to prevent the virus from entering other countries. ”

Du Qiu can only go this step and protect the country that is still willing to accept the Dongying people in this situation.

Xinghai replied, "Yes, sir." However, according to the available information, due to Prime Minister Toei's speech, Tokyo has already had a number of flights to various countries and regions.

In addition, a number of ships have also left the port, and some of these people may be carrying the virus.

At present, this virus has been greatly strengthened by Wutian's research institute, and the survival time and contagiousness of the virus are far greater than two years ago.

The most critical thing is that the time from onset to death of a patient is very short, only about 8-10 hours.

That is to say, if you don't get the first time to rescue after getting sick, there is almost no possibility of life. ”

Du Qiu said decisively: "Don't wait, you release the information immediately, at this time, you can only find a way to ensure that the virus does not spread out of the Dongying Islands!" ”
