Chapter 231: Isolation
Chapter 231: Isolation
Wu Yonghong went out with Lanzi, and now that the family's dishes are almost finished, he has to go out and buy some more. Since the spread of this terrible infection, commonly known as "chicken claw disease", even farmers have been afraid to enter the cities. Therefore, the price of vegetables in the city is constantly rising, and it has risen three to four times compared to before!
The government stepped in in time, knocked out a few of the noisy profiteers, and announced maximum prices for vegetables, eggs, milk and meat. However, the market is still not good, and the price of vegetables is not rising, but the supply is tight. If you don't buy it in time, even the food you live in will become a problem.
For this reason, the whole Daleniel, no, the people of the whole country or the whole world are about the same, frantically procuring a necessary material. From food to daily necessities, you can buy everything you can.
The Ministry of Health issued a health emergency notice on July 9: "When Wu Yonghong passed an intersection on his electric bicycle, the huge TV wall above the store did not show advertisements, but a health bulletin from state television. Under the TV wall, many people are watching and listening to the broadcast with a solemn face, which has become a new habit.
"According to the latest statistics of health and epidemic prevention departments across the country: by 0:00 on the 9th, a total of 751389 people were infected with 'Thai bacteria' across the country, and a total of 83,123 people have died so far...... Expert tip, please be sure to be prepared, drink plenty of boiled water, and pay attention to ......"
Most of the people around me were wearing masks, but when they looked at each other, they could see the horror in each other's eyes. There was a loud bang and scattered, as if the source of the infection was around.
The weather was so hot that there was no wind, and although it was already more than 3 o'clock in the afternoon, the sky was gloomy, and the air humidity was so high that people could not even sweat. This kind of "sauna day" has lasted for seven or eight days, adding to the depression in people's hearts.
The video wall was turned off in the press bulletin and replaced with a new commercial, which was an air purifier from a certain manufacturer. In the advertisement, the beautiful star hugged the thing and looked intoxicated. The advertisement is: "Famous international star Zhang Ziyi recommends a safe air brand!" It protects you and your family! ”
Wu Yonghong shook his head, he knew that any air purifier was about to sell like crazy, yesterday he took a look at the online shopping station, and one of them sold more than 3,000 units in one day!
But how effective? I'm afraid it's hard to say. He had used this product before, and at that time, the cheap online sales were not even 1,000 yuan. There used to be one in the office, and I used it for a while, but I didn't use it.
As soon as I wanted to get on the bike, I answered my wife's call: "Hey? What's the matter with the baby? ”
"Our neighbor, Lao Zhangtou seems to be sick and has just been admitted to the hospital." His wife's voice was a little crying, and it seemed that she was called very softly, "Yonghong, come back quickly." ”
"Okay, baby, I'll go back when I buy groceries. Buy more this time, let's not go out for the time being. Wu Yonghong's heart twitched, he was afraid of scaring his wife and concealed some facts when he went out. Because three people in that building were already sick and were forcibly moved out, the people who met the building when they first came out were scared half to death.
After arriving at the vegetable market, it was stranger than expected, and a few lonely vegetable vendors stood behind the stalls wearing masks. But luckily, they have a lot of vegetables in front of them, and there are very few customers.
Wu Yonghong was very happy about this situation, especially when he found fresh tomatoes, and his wife kept clamoring for tomato and egg soup. There were no such fresh vegetables on the market a few days ago, and looking at today's shipments, the environment has improved.
He walked up to a vendor who seemed to be a little absent-minded, looking at his phone as customers picked up things. After a minute, he finally got impatient and shouted to Wu Yonghong, who was even picking vegetables: "Okay, that's it, I'm going to close the stall." ”…,
"Stalls? Why do you need to collect stalls? Isn't this just the beginning? ”
"For the sake of me, for you, don't pick again, I'll weigh it."
Wu Yonghong hurriedly pulled some more dishes, and then gave a 50 yuan bill, which should be returned to 13.5 yuan, but the boss returned 15 yuan and began to pack up. The customer who saw him was still a little confused.
"Hey, I'll tell you, you don't want to spread the word." The boss said secretly, and then looked around: "Something is wrong, if you live by yourself, go home quickly." If you have a wife and children, you can reunite with them. ”
After saying that, the boss threw a few boxes of vegetables onto the small broken van that drove away, and disappeared in a puff of smoke. I looked around and saw that the other vegetable sellers were packing up.
"Hey, what the hell is going on?" Wu Yonghong put the food into the cloth bag he brought, because this has no plastic content, and it will be better for children in the future.
The vegetable vendors got into the car and ignored the shouting customer.
Wu Yonghong looked at the empty vegetable market, and in the blink of an eye, he couldn't even see a person's hair, and many vegetables were not taken away by the vegetable sellers. With the dim sky and the empty market, it is like the apocalyptic scene depicted in some film and television games.
To live to this extent, no one is stupid, and in the kind of life that keeps screaming "I don't believe it!" It's a movie! There may be, but it's definitely a minority, and most people's minds are still basically clear.
He got on the electric car and started the car, and as soon as he got out of the vegetable market, he noticed a large group of military vehicles slowly approaching. Both the old jeep and the newer domestic warrior cars in front of them were filled with heavily loaded soldiers, all of whom wore gas masks as if they were more exaggerated.
"They don't seem to be very emotional, but they can go to the city to maintain the environment, which is very good." Wu Yonghong still has a very high opinion of the people's army, and now he can feel that the army has appeared, and the social order will change very quickly.
Some citizens looked at the military vehicles, and some wanted to come close and say something polite, but the soldiers just waved their hands and refused, it seemed that they really had a secret mission.
"Looking at this posture, maybe the number of people getting sick in the country will be higher." Someone muttered quietly.
Hearing this, Wu Yonghong felt that it made a lot of sense, and the numbers announced on TV were too small. Just a few hundred thousand people infected with the disease to have such a national panic? You know, after contacting your friends, the whole country is terrible.
Didn't bacteria have been conquered long ago at the beginning of the last century? In the 21st century, it is those small viruses that are raging around the world, and a large number of literary works have depicted the tragic appearance of the world after the outbreak of the virus.
However, no one could have imagined that in 2010, it would be a new type of bacteria that would stir up the whole world.
After seeing this column of military vehicles driving past, Wu Yonghong hurriedly rode an electric bicycle and ran home, his wife was still in a plaster cast and had no way to move the stall.
After arriving at the community, sure enough, there were many police and health personnel standing in front of the whole community, they were busy spraying potions at the entrance of the community, and some people began to burn some items on the sidewalk, causing smoke and dust.
"What do you do? Hurry up, this neighborhood is closed. A police officer wearing a mask approached and motioned for him to get out of the car, pointing his right hand into the distance.
"Comrade policeman, I live in this community." Wu Yonghong accompanied the smiling face.
"Live in this community? Are you from that building? The policeman looked Wu Yonghong up and down, took the access card of the house and looked at it a few times, "Is there anyone else at home?" If there is no one, let's live in a different neighborhood. ”
"Why? Aren't there only 3 infected people in the community? ”…,
The policeman sneered twice, and then lowered his voice: "It's not 3, sue you, we took 14 people away in the morning!" ”
14 people? This greatly surprised Wu Yonghong, who learned from the news that the ratio of infected people to carriers was about 1 to 4, indicating that there were still 50 or 60 infected people in the community.
"Comrade policeman, please help." Wu Yonghong said in a low voice, "My daughter-in-law's leg was broken two days ago, and there is no one else in the family. ”
"Well, well, here's the registration form." The policeman didn't insist anymore and took out a notebook for him to sign.
Wu Yonghong had just ridden in, when he heard a few loud bangs behind him, and turned his head to see that the big iron gate of the community had been closed. And a thick iron chain is tied outside, not to prevent thieves but to prevent people in the community from running around, right?
Hurriedly went up to the 11th floor where he lived, and as soon as Wu Yonghong closed the door after entering the room, he put the dishes in the kitchen. Then he pushed open the bedroom door and found his wife staring at the TV in the bedroom in a daze.
"Baby, I'm back from grocery shopping, what to eat at night." Wu Yonghong found that his wife was a little sluggish, so he repeated it again.
"Yonghong, I seem to be infected too." The wife said slowly, tears welling up in her eyes, "When I was discharged from the hospital a few days ago, I felt unwell, and today I just watched the TV report, and the situation is the same as mine." ”
These words were as loud as a thunderbolt in Wu Yonghong's heart, and he immediately shook his head and denied it: "Don't say stupid things, you just have a leg injury so you're a little nervous." ”
"No, it's not," my wife took out the thermometer under her armpit and handed it over, "Look, my temperature has reached 39.4 degrees." ”
Wu Yonghong took the thermometer with trembling hands, and he tried to continue to comfort: "It may also be that the leg is inflamed." ”
As soon as he finished speaking, he saw his wife's two shaking hands, and his heart sank to the bottom.
"Yonghong, you hurry up and leave me, otherwise you will also be infected." The wife muttered.
"What are you talking nonsense? Can I leave you? I'm going to call you and take you to the hospital. Wu Yonghong's heart was like a knife.
The wife sighed, "I don't go to the hospital, just now many people on the Internet said that they didn't get sick but went to the hospital and got infected." Hospitals have become a place of spread, and if you go, you are more likely to get infected. ”
She pressed her right hand with her left hand, which was not shaking much, and continued: "I heard that there are many people who are immune, you have stayed with me for so long, while you are not sick, hurry up~"
