018 Disease prevention and control
After Duke rescued Galileo and them from the judgment cross, he found a remote courtyard in Stormcastle and let the three of them stay for a while to avoid the wind. Then he fooled around with Bishop Carsman, threw the pot of heresy on the monster, and finally pardoned the three of them.
However, the emergence of the epidemic now can only make them play a role in advance, especially Copernicus, if you put aside his status as an astronomer brought about by the cosmology such as "heliocentrism", he is still a doctor of religious law and a doctor with excellent medical skills, and the current situation is just right for him to play.
Duke took Alan and went to the courtyard where Galileo lived in a low-key manner, and before he entered the house, he heard a heated discussion coming from inside the house.
"I insist on your heliocentric theory, but I don't think that all celestial bodies move around the sun!" said Galileo.
Almost as soon as Galileo finished saying this, Copernicus retorted: "But the celestial bodies we see revolve around the sun, such as the earth, the moon, and so on."
"That's right, aren't all the celestial bodies we observed clearly last night revolving around the sun?"
Bruno was a staunch supporter of Copernicus's Theory of the Movement of the Heavenly Bodies, so he was also a supporter of Copernicus's theory.
In the face of Bruno's approval, Galileo said excitedly: "Although the celestial bodies we see clearly do move around the sun. However, this is because the telescope can only see these few clearly, but how can you be sure that so many celestial bodies in the sky revolve around the sun, and the sun is the center of the universe?"
Duke stood outside the door and heard their conversation, and a sense of confusion in time and space was instantaneous, and the progress of science was the result of these pioneers' little exploration and discussion.
Pushing open the door, the three people who were having a heated discussion saw Duke come in, and hurriedly stood up straight and bowed to Duke. Because whether it was the act of saving them or the understanding and trust of science, Galileo and the others were extremely grateful to Duke.
"Your Excellency. ”
"I've just heard a lot of you talk about it, and it's good, science needs your spirit of inquiry. Duke pretended to be an old-fashioned word of encouragement, although these are scientific pioneers, but who says that he has stood on the shoulders of these giants?
Hearing Duke's encouragement, these people all showed very excited expressions on their faces, because their previous discussions were disgusted and disgusted, and even in the end, they were reported to the Inquisition and became heretical.
This time, it was rare to hear the approval and recognition, and it was also the lord, so I was naturally very happy.
"But I came here today for one important thing, and that is that there are signs of an epidemic in Stormfort, and I need your help to control the spread of the epidemic. ”
Hearing the word epidemic, the expressions of several people who were originally excited instantly became solemn, because they all knew the seriousness of the epidemic, which was a terrifying disease that could lead to the destruction of the whole city.
"My lord, even if you say that we can help, we will do our best!"
Even if Galileo and his people heard about the epidemic, they agreed without the slightest hesitation, and there was quite a feeling of dying for their confidants.
"Well, I'll get straight to the point. "Duke is also not hypocritically polite, he can use his status as a lord to forcibly order these people. It's just that he wants to make a better impression on a few pioneers of science, because they can be very useful.
"Copernicus, I know that you are very skilled in medicine, and my task for you is to isolate the residents who have symptoms as soon as possible, and then start treatment. As for the specific rules, then do as I wrote, Bruno and Alan will be your assistants, and the entire city lord guard will cooperate in the action. ”
After speaking, Duke gave Copernicus a piece of paper with detailed instructions on a series of steps such as isolation, high-temperature disinfection, and sewage treatment. These are the experiences of Duke in later generations to experience SARS, and they are also things that Duke racked his brains to remember after Princess Jina's notice that day!
Copernicus took Duke's handwritten paper, and from a blank face at the beginning, to a look of ecstasy on his face after understanding some key points, he said: "Lord Lord, you are a genius, an absolute genius, and this content will save countless lives!"
Seeing Copernicus's excited and admiring expression, Duke just waved his hand and smiled, this calmness and calmness made Copernicus even more admired, the lord is really hidden!
In fact, the knowledge of disease prevention and control has been involved in the Middle Ages, for example, the most famous bird-beak doctor in the Middle Ages wore a bird mask and stuffed herbs and cotton into the hollow parts such as the bird's nostrils to filter the air. Then the whole body is draped from head to toe in a coat made of grease cloth, and the patient is isolated from the most basic contact.
This may be the prototype of modern gas masks and chemical protective suits, but they are not clear about the fundamental causes of viruses and bacteria, so they are not systematically standardized. What Duke has done is to sort out these things in detail and standardization, which is also a cross-era medical progress.
After the ecstasy, Copernicus seemed to suddenly think of something, and said to Duke worriedly: "Lord Lord, we still have the identity of heretics, will the Holy See ......?"
Before Copernicus could finish speaking, Duke interrupted him and replied: "Don't worry, I will communicate with Bishop Castle in this matter and leave it to me to deal with." ”
Duke is not worried about this now, because the Holy See side of the Kasmai is now a grasshopper on a rope with himself, and if the outbreak of Storm Castle breaks out, everyone will have to finish playing.
Another point is that the fire in the dungeon of the Inquisition allowed the dark mage to escape, and Kasmai has been reprimanded by the archbishop, and he wants to make some "political achievements" in Stormcastle to save his reputation, such as curbing the outbreak of the epidemic, and he will definitely not be embarrassed by such small problems.
After confirming that everything was fine, Copernicus, under the leadership of Allen, officially launched the epidemic prevention and control work, which may be the first time in the Middle Ages to use scientific means to curb the spread of the epidemic, and the wings of Duke, a butterfly, also began to flapp.
After Copernicus and the others went out, only Galileo was left in the room, he looked at Copernicus's back, and said to Duke with an expectant expression on his face: "Lord Lord, please give me a chance to serve you too!"
Hearing Galileo in such a tone, Duke had an indescribable pride in his heart. This is the big man of experimental science in later generations, and now he is almost like his little brother.
"Of course, Galileo, I won't let your talent go unnoticed. ”
"Galileo, I heard you invented an instrument that measures temperature, right?"
Hearing Duke's question, Galileo's face was full of surprise and he nodded and replied, "Your Excellency, you really know everything, I did invent a way to measure temperature. ”
Hearing Galileo admit it, the stone in Duke's heart also fell to the ground, and he was also worried that because of the difference in the world, Galileo in this world did not invent the thermometer, because the reason why he left Galileo alone this time was for this!
