"You know?"

Mo Kai and Xu Bing were stunned.

Li Xiyang said slowly, "In 1976, an unknown virus patronized a river in northern Congo and frantically killed the people of 55 villages along the river, and none of the people were spared.

Three years later, the virus ravaged Sudan again, and corpses were everywhere for a while.

After two "atrocities", the virus mysteriously disappeared for 15 years and disappeared without a trace. ”

After Li Xiyang finished speaking, Mo Kai and Xu Bing exclaimed almost at the same time, "You mean the Ebola virus!" ”

"That's right!"

Li Xiyang nodded and continued, "Ebola virus is a very rare virus, named after a river in northern Congo.

Its shape is like the ancient 'Ruyi' of our country.

However, laboratory purification techniques may cause changes in the shape of the virus, such as the high-speed operation of a centrifuge that may deform the virions.

Therefore, virions may appear in the shape of a "U", a "6", a winding, a ring, or a branch.

It's easy to mistake it for the Marburg virus! ”

Xu Bing finally realized the reason why Li Xiyang questioned him.

"Still,"

Li Xiyang paused, and then said, "The Ebola virus contains negative-strand linear RNA molecules and four virulent particle structural proteins, which is the biggest difference between it and Marburg virus. ”

Xu Bing reacted and hurriedly turned around to check the mass spectrometry.

Two minutes later,

"Damn!"

"Three out of seven histone proteins are pseudoproteins!"

Xu Bing looked annoyed, and at the same time ashamed.

With a sigh, he said, "You're right, it's my mistake!" ”

Li Xiyang shook his head, "Both viruses are RNA viruses, and they both belong to the family of linear structure virilli, and no matter the pathogenic mechanism, transmission mode, and even mortality rate, they are the same.

International researchers generally believe that the Ebola virus and the Marburg virus are the same origin and are the twin brothers of the virus community.

Team Leader Xu was careless for a while, which is normal! ”

Xu Bing glanced at Li Xiyang gratefully, but the next second he wondered,

How can I be complacent because of the words of a little doctor?

At this time, Mo Kai on the side said anxiously, "If it is really the Ebola virus, wouldn't the result be the same?" ”

It is important to know that there are four levels of viruses.

AZ is also only in the third rank.

The Ebola virus and the Marburg virus are tied for the highest fourth level, making them the most virulent viruses in the world.

Li Xiyang said, "Teacher, don't worry, as far as I know, there are three types of Ebola virus."

The first type of Zaire is the most pathogenic to humans, with a high mortality rate of 90%.

The second Sudanese type, with the second most virulence, has caused outbreaks with a mortality rate of 41%.

The third type, the bundibugyo type, is less pathogenic to humans, with only 25% of deaths.

Five years ago, the Bundibuggio virus briefly appeared in the Philippines, and it took three years to successfully develop a vaccine to prevent the virus from returning.

In August last year, China also introduced a batch of vaccines from the Philippines, which was placed in the Imperial Capital National Biological Center. ”

"There's a vaccine?"

"Great!!"

Mo Kai was pleasantly surprised.

But Xu Bing on the side looked surprised, "How do you know so clearly?" ”

Even the vaccine is known at the National Biocenter!

Li Xiyang smiled, "I happened to see it in a report." ”

"Such a coincidence? What's the report? ”

"Lao Xu, what kind of nonsense do you have, what kind of report did you search for on the Internet, now it's important to save people!"

Turning his head and patting Li Xiyang on the shoulder, he said, "This time your kid has made meritorious service again, go, follow me to the inner courtyard!" ”

As he spoke, he pulled Li Xiyang and left.

Behind

Xu Bing looked suspicious.

But

"What an amazing little guy!"

……

The inner courtyard of the emergency center, the office of the dean.

"The results are in!"

"Ebola?"

"Are you sure?"

Chen Heran sat behind his desk and looked at the two people who came in a hurry.

Mo Kai patted Li Xiyang and said, "You discovered the virus, you say!" ”

Chen Heran was stunned, did he find out?

Then I listened to Li Xiyang's quick talk, "To be precise, it should be the Ebola Bundi buggio virus, and there is a vaccine in the National Biological Center." ”

"If Dean Chen is not at ease, you can use monoclonal antibodies, remdesivir, and favipiravir to do drug susceptibility testing!

All three of these drugs are antiviral drugs recommended for trial by the World Health Organization! ”

Chen Heran's eyes fell on Li Xiyang,

The first time he heard the name was when Mo Kai contacted him and said that his students were going to the emergency center for training.

At that time, Dean Chen went over to take a look out of curiosity.

Polite, humble, and in good spirits...

But that's about it!

The second goodbye was in the respiratory medicine conference room.

Mo Kai was invited by him to come for a consultation, and being able to bring Li Xiyang with him shows the importance he attaches to the latter.

The third time was Cang Jie, vice president of the Lan Provincial Association of Traditional Chinese Medicine.

When I saw the prescription I passed on, I called it very novel.

But it works.

And I asked myself which Chinese medicine master was the handiwork.

Is it cloud-savvy?

You must know that the best Western medicine is in the imperial capital.

And if you want to say the best Chinese medicine, it is definitely in Yun Province.

It can be seen that Cangjie has a high evaluation of Li Xiyang.

At that time, Chen Heran realized why Mo Kai attached so much importance to this student.

Definitely a genius!

And now, even the virus was discovered by him.

Chen Heran did not hesitate, and directly called the laboratory department and asked them to immediately put into the drug susceptibility test.

Hanging up the phone, Chen Heran said with a close face, "Xiao Li, the laboratory department has started, and the results are expected to be available within three hours.

You go to the respiratory medicine department with me first, and then tell you about the situation. ”

As he spoke, he took Li Xiyang's hand, feeling like he was looking at his own grandson.

Li Xiyang was flattered and turned his head to look at Mo Kai on the side.

Mo Kai snickered there, but his face was full of pride.

……

At the same time, respiratory medicine has become a mess.

"Director Mao, the patient's liver function began to fail, and the entire chest cavity was in a large ulcer state."

"The brain circuits are widened, and the patient's cognitive ability is reduced!"

"Massive erosion of the epidermis on the kidneys!"

"The patient has blood in the urine!"

“……”

Mao Tong listened to the reports of the staff of various departments, and his face became more and more ugly.

The patient's condition is deteriorating, and very quickly, without the slightest warning.

"It seems that traditional Chinese medicine can't stop the spread of the virus!"

Mao Tong was at a loss, and looked up just in time to see Chen Heran coming in.

Everyone in the room hurriedly stood up, "Dean Chen! ”

Chen Heran glanced at everyone, "How is it, have you thought of a way?" ”

All the doctors, you look at me, I look at you, and finally set their eyes on the directors of each department.

But everyone kept their heads down and didn't speak.

Mao Tong had no choice but to sigh and say, "Dean Chen, we really can't do anything about it, our condition is deteriorating too quickly." ”

Chen Heran looked like he hated iron but not steel, "You, so many directors and deputy directors, you are not as good as a young man!" ”

"Xiao Li, come in, tell them about this virus, what medicine to use, and how to treat it."

The people looked at each other,

"Who?"

"I don't know!"

For a moment, all the doctors looked out the door.
