Feng Qing looked at this strange-looking white cloth and couldn't help but be a little puzzled.

How can this thin piece of cotton protect against a terrible disease?

Feng Qing couldn't help but ask Hu Changan his own questions.

And Hu Changan also smiled, and explained to Feng Qing generously: "Lord Feng, why don't I explain to you the transmission route of the epidemic." ”

"Once the patient is sick, the patient's body will naturally emit diseased particles, and healthy people will follow the disease as long as they come into contact with the patient's secretions."

"There are two main ways in which common diseases are transmitted."

"One is contact transmission. Healthy people can get sick when they come into contact with food or water that has been contaminated with diseased particles. ”

"This route of transmission is relatively easy to prevent, as long as you pay attention to eating clean water and food, you can do not get infected."

"The second is droplet transmission. When a patient coughs or talks, saliva is brought out of the mouth. ”

"This route of transmission is relatively difficult to prevent."

"Because sometimes the saliva is very small, like water vapor floating in the air, it is difficult for ordinary people to notice."

"Once these droplets are inhaled into the body by a healthy person, the healthy person will be eroded by the diseased particles and thus get sick."

"The mask I made was specifically designed to prevent this kind of droplets."

"After wearing a mask, the droplets will be blocked by gauze and cotton, and as long as you change the mask diligently, you will not be infected by the epidemic."

In order to make Feng Qing understand, Hu Changan specially abandoned all kinds of professional vocabulary and explained the spread of the virus to Feng Qing in the most simple words.

However, even so, as an ancient person who had no foundation in modern medicine, Feng Qing also heard it in a fog.

However, as a capable county commander, Feng Qing still extracted the key information from Hu Changan's words.

In other words, as long as you pay attention to food hygiene and do not get splashed by the patient's spit, you can avoid infection!

After listening to this, Feng Qing almost did not doubt the correctness of Hu Changan's words at all.

After all, Feng Qing has also been busy with a group of Lang Zhong recently, and he also has a general understanding of the epidemic.

Hu Changan's words just played the role of the finishing touch, directly tearing away the fog in Feng Qing's mind.

Feng Qing couldn't help but be overjoyed.

If Hu Changan's words are true, doesn't that mean that this round of epidemic will be effectively alleviated soon?!

Feng Qing was very excited, and hurriedly bowed down to Hu Changan and said, "Master Hu, please give us more guidance in the future to help the people of Jiangning County control the epidemic!" ”

"Hu Gongzi, your great kindness, the people of Jiangning County will never forget!"

Saying that, Feng Qing was even so excited that he was about to bend down on the spot to give Hu Changan a big salute.

Hu Changan hurriedly rushed forward to support Feng Qing.

This is an official of the imperial court! Give yourself a big gift, Hu Changan is afraid that he will lose his life.

Hu Changan patted the excited Feng Qing on the back and said softly: "Feng County Order, why don't you take me to see the patients quickly, I can also see if I can save these patients." ”

Hearing Hu Changan's words, Feng Qing woke up like a dream, quickly pulled out of the excitement, and walked to the backyard with Hu Changan.

......

In a remote courtyard of the county yamen, there were seven or eight people who had been infected with the epidemic, and they had come to test the medicine.

However, it is a pity that these patients have been tossed by Lang Zhong for several days, and their condition still does not improve at all.

In order to prevent the spread of the disease, there were no people waiting in this courtyard, and the patients had to rely on themselves.

Every day, people would pass food and medicine through the small hole by the door and ask about the patients.

But every time I get an answer, it is not optimistic.

These patients can only wait for their death in silence in despair.

However, on this day, the door of the side courtyard was pushed open with a creak.

Walking in was Hu Changan, who was armed from head to toe.

In order to prevent being infected, Hu Changan specially asked Feng Qing to help bring a few wide thick clothes, wrap them in layers on the outside of the clothes, and bring two thick masks.

If it weren't for the fact that the weather had turned cooler now, Hu Changan would have to be suffocated to death.

Seeing this, the patients who were still able to move struggled to sit up from their beds.

Seeing Hu Changan, who was fully armed, everyone exchanged a look of surprise.

Facing everyone's vigilant eyes, Hu Changan couldn't cry or laugh, and stood in the courtyard and said loudly: "Ladies and gentlemen, I am the prince's staff, and I just came here today to treat you. ”

"Please calm down, lie on the bed obediently and don't move, and wait for me to see how you are."

When everyone heard this, they couldn't help but be moved to tears.

It's from the Prince's Mansion!

It seems that the imperial court has not forgotten them after all!

Everyone hurriedly lay down obediently, waiting for Hu Changan to come to see a doctor.

Hu Changan carefully pushed open the door of the room and gently stood beside a patient's bed.

I saw that the man's face was covered with blood, his skin was ulcerated, and he already looked like he was out of breath and less in breath.

Hu Changan sighed heavily, silently took out a disease detector he had just exchanged from his mind, and pointed at the dying patient.

A crisp system sound sounded in Hu Changan's mind.

[Drop, selected patient, do you use a disease detector?] 】

"Yes."

[Hello, the disease detector has completed the test. 】

[The disease this person has is called bubonic plague, which is a virulent infectious disease, please take precautions against it.] 】

When Hu Changan heard this, his heart sank suddenly.

Oops, how is it such a serious illness?!

Bubonic plague is a virulent infectious disease transmitted by rats and fleas, and its mortality rate is so high and contagious that it can be ranked among the top three among all epidemics in ancient times.

The Black Death in medieval Europe was caused by this bubonic plague.

Fortunately, bubonic plague does not spread from person to person through the air, like his brother pneumonic plague.

Bubonic plague is mainly transmitted to humans through rats and fleas, and it is still possible to prevent it as long as the rats are vigorously culled and the hygiene of diet and drinking water is taken into account.

Moreover, the scope of the epidemic is not too widespread, mainly confined to a few villages in Jiangning County, and the difficulty of prevention and control is not too great.

If it is extended to the entire territory of Jiangning County and even the surrounding counties in the future, then it can only be suppressed by the imperial court to send troops.

Hu Changan comforted the patients a few more words, and then strode out of the courtyard.

After walking out of the courtyard, Hu Changan carefully took off his mask and robe and rolled them up, handed them over to the servants in the yamen to burn them with fire, and went to take a bath before hurriedly coming to the main courtyard and explaining this time to Feng Qing.

When Feng Qing heard this, he also frowned.
