Chapter 259 Looking at the entire history, it is quite an explosive existence (5000 words for a monthly ticket)
So far.
Gu Ji can only go to the extreme.
At six o'clock in the evening, he woke up again from the ringing of the telephone next to his ear, as if since yesterday he had always fallen into a coma without realizing it.
Gu Ji thought it was the appraisal report from AM Hospital.
I couldn't wait to pick up my phone, but it turned out to be the middle division policeman who went to his apartment in the afternoon.
"Prosecutor Kim, your parents have just been harassed by the gang, but fortunately we have planted police officers nearby, and we have caught two gangsters from the Mountain Dog Gang, and no one was injured."
"It's hard work, please continue to keep an eye on me."
Gu Ji didn't say much.
Leaving his parents in the hands of outsiders, although it seems a little cold-blooded, but Shan Sang's purpose now is to divert his energy.
If he really went to track down the Mountain Dog Gang, then naturally he would not have the energy to care about the MERS patients.
What's more, he has already developed symptoms, and running around will only invisibly become a spreader of the virus.
Shortly after I hung up, another call came in.
It's an unfamiliar number.
Gu Jiyi narrowed his eyes and answered it.
The voice of a young woman appeared on the phone.
"Is it Prosecutor Jin, I'm the director of AM Medical, Jiang Youzhen, your virus test report has come out, the dual-target PCR test is positive, the MERS-CoV virus has been isolated from the mucus specimen of the lower respiratory tract, and the clinical diagnosis has been confirmed, you are now infected with MERS!"
"Hoo ......"
Hearing the word "confirmed", Gu Ji had mixed feelings.
"Prosecutor Kim, you don't need to worry, AM Medical has the best medical resources in South Korea, and we will send someone to pick you up immediately......
"I'll go over myself, send the report first, I need it urgently."
After receiving the photo of Jiang Youzhen's virus identification results, Gu Ji endured his drowsy head, took out his prosecutor's ID card from his pocket, held it in front of his chest with his left hand, and adjusted the mobile phone to selfie mode with his right hand, "Hello everyone, I am the prosecutor of the Public Security Section of the Seoul Central District Prosecutor's Office of the Republic of Korea, Kim Ji-gyu, I want to report Seoul Sansang Hospital with my real name to deliberately conceal the infection of patients with MERS......"
That's right.
Gu Ji's so-called going to extremes is real-name reporting!
Only the real-name video of the prosecutor of the Republic of Korea, the infection of the MERS virus, the attack of the gangsters, and the open confrontation with the chaebol, these factors can be combined to suppress the news and public opinion of the "North Korean anthrax invasion" fabricated by Sansang.
After he finished recording the video, he immediately sent it to Lin Renna.
Lin Renna's movements are also extremely fast.
On the way to pack things.
Gu Ji's mobile phone has never stopped, down to the secretary Pei Nanzhu, up to Sun Jae-seok, from phone calls to text messages, to social software, and even the chief prosecutor of the Central District Procuratorate was alarmed.
In order to be afraid of being tracked, he temporarily took out the mobile phone card, and without even returning the room, he drove to AM Hospital under the hotel basement.
AM Hospital is located in the south of Seoul and is no smaller than Sansang Hospital.
In the midst of the checkerboard-like green belt are white buildings.
Gu Ji asked the security guard at the door to contact the hospital executives.
Moments later, an ambulance drove up to the front of the car, the back door opened, and four nurses in white protective suits got out of the car, picked him up in the ambulance, and transferred him to a single room in the inpatient department for isolation and treatment.
The expert professor had just finished checking Gu Ji's basic situation.
The door to the isolation ward was pushed open, and a well-protected woman walked in.
Through the goggles, you can see her indifferent expression, but her eyes are very polite, and she looks like she has a sense of nobility that no one can approach, full of Korean chaebol women.
"Hello Prosecutor Kim, we finally met."
She was the Jiang Youzhen who was in charge of communicating with Gu Ji on the phone, "How are you feeling now?" ”
"It's okay."
Gu Ji's physical fitness has not been weakened by the system, so the symptoms are still very mild at present, "Have you reported my infection with MERS to the CDC and the Ministry of Health and Welfare?" ”
"You can rest assured that the hospital has reported the results to the Health and Welfare Disease Management Headquarters along with the specimens."
Jiang Youzhen's tone of voice always had a sense of coldness on the ground, "Besides, you have caused an uproar on the Internet now, and the topic of 'South Korea has found a confirmed MERS patient' has long been spread, and I believe that the Disease Control Headquarters will issue an announcement soon." ”
"That's good......"
Hearing this, Gu Ji could finally breathe a sigh of relief.
I didn't expect to spend so much energy just to complete the first mission goal, and I can't imagine how difficult it will be to control the spread of the virus in the future.
At this time, the secretary outside the door walked in and didn't know what to say in Jiang Youzhen's ear.
"Prosecutor Jin, the people from the central district prosecutor are downstairs in the inpatient department, and I temporarily rejected them on the grounds that the patients need to be isolated."
Jiang Youzhen, as the daughter of the helmsman of AM Electronics, is naturally not afraid of one or two ordinary prosecutors.
"With all due respect, Prosecutor Kim, you don't need to be so extreme, we have a better way to deal with Sansang, and if you do this, you will completely tear your face with them, which will affect your future political career."
Naturally, what she was referring to was Gu Ji's real-name reporting video posted on the Internet.
South Korea is a capitalist society, and the election of parliamentarians often requires a lot of funds, and it is not good to offend the big chaebols.
"This is the fastest way for the government to lock down the Sansang hospital and control the spread of the virus."
Gu Ji coughed twice.
Jiang Youzhen pondered the words repeatedly.
raised his head and looked at Gu Ji again, with a little more respect in his eyes.
Jiang Youzhen thought that Gu Ji's purpose was the same as him, it was to fight Shansang, but he didn't expect it to solve this public health incident.
Following.
Gu Ji was taking an electrolyte drip, and suddenly heard the system's prompt sound in his sleep.
[Goal: Detect and report a public health crisis completed!] 】
【Please choose your reward!】 】
【Immunity Boost(Large)】OR【Anthrax Antibody (Special)】
He opened it slowly, and the sunlight pouring into the isolation room from the window made him instinctively squint.
Look at the bonus options in front of you.
Yellow [Immunity Enhancement (Large)]: Increases the immune system by 45%, increases the body's antiviral ability by 24%, increases the number of specific T cells by 29%, and weakens the variability of the virus by 72%.
History [Anthrax Antibody (Special)]: Data source: The US Department of Defense's DTRA Threat Reduction Agency's Military Strategy-CBEP Cooperative Biological Participation Program, the research results of the Institute of Radiation, Chemical and Biological Protection at the Osan Base in the United States and South Korea, are completely immune to the invasion of all types of natural anthrax bacilli such as skin, lungs, and intestines, and have a 98.7% chance of immunity to the invasion of laboratory weapons-grade anthrax.
Anthrax antibodies?
Gu Ji looked at the second reward option, and his heart suddenly became clear.
It seems that the United States has really developed chemical weapons at the Osan base, especially this "CBEP Cooperative Biological Participation Program", which seems to have a lot of plans.
But this level mainly revolves around the MERS virus, and has nothing to do with anthrax.
Even in reality, it is not very useful.
After all, the one who can use weapon-grade anthrax is either a terrorist attack or a large-scale biochemical warfare, and he is immune to it alone, which has a limited role in the war situation.
On the contrary, the level applicability of immunoimprinting is stronger.
Even if you can't destroy the virus in the body, a person with high immunity is at least an asymptomatic patient, especially the point of "weakening the mutation of the virus in the body" is almost equivalent to grasping the lifeblood of the virus.
Viruses are more difficult to control because they mutate quickly than other infectious diseases such as bacteria, fungi, and parasites.
Often a virus can mutate into four or five, or even a dozen categories.
Yellow light falls.
I don't know if it's the psychological effect, or the immune effect is outstanding.
Gu Ji felt that his body was much more comfortable than last night.
[New goal: Limit the number of virus-infected areas to less than 7 (including 7)!] 】
[Number of currently infected areas: 3]
"Infected areas?"
Gu Ji muttered repeatedly, and began to recall the area infected by the MERS incident in South Korea, he couldn't remember the specific location clearly, there were almost seven or eight, and one of them was very special, it was an imported case, which was Xiangzhou.
He hurriedly took out his mobile phone and dialed Jiang Youzhen's number.
She seemed to be busy with work, and the earpiece was full of the sound of turning over documents, "Prosecutor Kim, do you have any questions?" ”
"Can you help me get in touch with the Disease Control Headquarters, especially the Central Disaster Safety Countermeasures Headquarters?"
The two organizations mentioned by Gu Ji are equivalent to the central disaster response center in China, which is a special solution headquarters set up for sudden crisis events, such as natural disasters, public health, and major accidents.
Thanks to the yellow level of language mastery.
These potential cultural name shifts have become his instincts.
The advantage of the central special command is that it can gather the country's top experts to discuss countermeasures.
And the implementation of unified national management.
In a state of emergency, this can maximize the central government's overall planning capacity and resolve the crisis in the shortest possible time.
"I could have helped you find a way to contact the Disease Control Headquarters, but the Central Disaster Countermeasures Headquarters has not yet been established, and according to the National Security Department, the National Countermeasures Headquarters will only be activated when the new influenza spread nationwide, as in 2009 and 2010, causing 3 million infections, and it is not yet at that stage."
"What did you say?"
When Jiang Youzhen explained for the first time, Gu Ji thought that his brain was feverish and he heard it wrong.
But when the other party repeats it a second time.
Only then did he know that Jiang Youzhen was not joking.
Gu Ji really wanted to scold.
The brains of those countermeasures experts of the South Korean government have been kicked by donkeys!
What is the concept of 3 million infected people?
In 2015, South Korea's total population was just over 50 million, which means that 1 in 17 people in the country is infected to be called an emergency.
According to the World Health Organization, the mortality rate of MERS virus is 38%.
If 1.14 million people die, will the South Korean government be in a hurry?
This is a pretty explosive existence in the entire history of mankind!
Gu Jiqiang endured the anger in his heart and briefly recounted his analysis of this matter, "If we don't establish a disaster countermeasures headquarters and implement emergency management now, it is tantamount to allowing the virus to spread, and it can also spread to other countries!" ”
"Prosecutor Kim, having said that, the ability to infect MERS is not strong, and the National Health Center has just released confirmed information on its official website to remind the public to pay attention to personal protection."
Gu Ji was still waiting for Jiang Youzhen's next words.
"And then?"
"And then there was no then."
"No more!?"
Gu Ji was completely stunned.
Even the most basic emergency management, the publication of hospital lists, and the lockdown of hospitals have not been implemented.
What's the use of this Nima report?
It's no wonder that the number of MERS infections caused by imported cases in other countries has remained at the level of 1 to 4 people, with the exception of South Korea, where infections soared after the first imported case was confirmed.
Virus mutations aside.
This is completely due to the fact that the South Korean government has a big problem with its cognitive level, response method, and sense of responsibility, and it has no sense of importance at all about the MERS virus invasion.
"Trouble Director Jiang, help me contact the Disease Control Headquarters immediately!"
Hanging up the phone, Gu Ji began to check the announcement issued by the Ministry of Health and Welfare on the Internet.
The result is really as Jiang Youzhen said, just a notice.
The funniest thing is.
He, that is, "Kim Ji-gyu", turned out to be the first confirmed infected person in South Korea!
In such a child's play, the real-name reporting video that Gu Ji finally recorded has also been declining in popularity with the lack of attention from the Ministry of Welfare and Health.
However, there are still some people who suspect that there are MERS patients in the Mulberry Hospital, and ask the government to disclose the list of hospitals and the movements of patients, but no one pays attention to them.
It's close to noon.
Jiang Youzhen sent a message saying that the person in charge of the disease management headquarters agreed to talk to him.
Gu Ji made a phone call, and an older voice came from the other side, "This is the Crisis Response Analysis Office of the Disease Management Headquarters, I'm Zheng Yinsheng, what questions do you have." ”
"Director Zheng, I'm Kim Ji-gyu, I would like to ask, why hasn't the headquarters taken emergency measures when it has confirmed that the imported case of MERS has been confirmed and the infection is spreading in the country?"
"I know you, and thank you for your efforts in contributing to this MERS case importation event."
Zheng Yinsheng first thanked politely, and then explained calmly:
"Although MERS is a tertiary virus, the contagion rate is low, it can only be transmitted through droplets and contact, and the number of retransmission is limited, according to the data released by the WHO organization, the second generation of MERS patients can no longer be transmitted to others, so there is no need to take emergency measures."
"Director Zheng, if the virus mutates and can continue to spread from person to person, wouldn't it be very dangerous to let it go like this now? I suggest that emergency measures be taken immediately, such as forcing hospitals to report the condition of MERS, sealing off infected hospitals, setting up quarantine offices at important seaports and airports, and taking temperature measurements and filling in forms to check the entry and exit of tourists and merchant ships. ”
"Hehehe......"
As soon as Gu Ji's words fell, Zheng Yinsheng's laughter came from the phone.
"Prosecutor Kim, do you think you are more professional than the World Health Organization? I'm sorry, I can't give such an order, you better be treated in the hospital with peace of mind, it's all ......"
The phone hangs up.
Gu Ji lowered his arms, feeling a deep sense of powerlessness for the first time.
In the face of this national crisis in South Korea, no matter what he does, he will not be able to shake the decision of the chaebol and the government.
You know, he's a prosecutor!
If you change it to ordinary people, I'm afraid you won't even be able to turn up a ripple of water.
"Now there's only one last resort left......"
Gu Ji squinted slightly, picked up his mobile phone again, found the webpage of the Blue House National Petition Bulletin Board, briefly changed the suggestion he had just made to Zheng Yinsheng, and forwarded it to Lin Renna, asking her to focus on publicity from now on.
According to the "Blue House Petition" system.
Within 30 days of the petition, more than 200,000 people signed the petition, and the Blue House had to respond within 30 days.
This was the only thing he could do until he was cured of MERS and released from isolation in the ward.
The next few days.
Mr. Son Jae-seok personally brought people to visit him in the hospital and severely criticized him for his extreme method of reporting under his real name, because it would affect the reputation of the prosecutor.
Gu Ji ignored it.
Watching the responses to the National Petition bulletin board, as well as the MERS contagion data, became the two most important things he did every day.
That's right, he asked Lin Renna to post a petition, which soon exceeded 200,000.
More than 780,000 people are now asking the government to publish the names of hospitals and patient trajectories.
The reason why the petition is popular is because as of today, May 27, in just one week, there have been a total of 343 MERS infections in South Korea, and even Lim In-na has not been spared.
Most of the patients are concentrated in the Seoul area, and a small number are scattered to other cities, including Busan, hundreds of kilometers away, and even Ha Guk Hyangju has been imported from South Korea.
Many countries around the world have issued "travel health advice" that is equivalent to a red alert.
Members of the public are urged to refrain from visiting Korea as much as possible.
[Goal: Failure to control the virus-infected area to less than 7 (including 7)!] 】
[Randomly punishing ......]
[Double the degree of your current clinical symptoms!] 】
Although Gu Ji had already expected that this would be the result, the moment his symptoms worsened, he still didn't expect the reaction in his body to be so violent.
chills, shortness of breath, headache, muscle aches......
All kinds of debuffs swept over his head, making Gu Ji almost unconscious, and the blood oxygen monitoring instrument in the ward also sent an alarm, showing that his current blood oxygen saturation was only 89%.
In less than half a minute, the door was pushed open.
AM's specialist doctors and nurses rushed in and began to do various examinations on him.
"Why does it suddenly get worse?"
"Immediately push the oxygen therapy machine over, and the mask gives oxygen ......"
In the misty lake, Gu Ji could only hear the doctors and nurses gathered in front of his window, shouting fiercely, and he was like a fish on a chopping board, ready to be slaughtered.
By the time he woke up again, it was already late at night.
Gu Ji was woken up by the sound of pulleys in the corridor outside the door.
The door was pushed open, and a nurse in a hazmat suit walked up to his bed and found a syringe from a medical cart.
"Nurse, how am I doing now?"
Gu Ji didn't know that his voice was extremely hoarse, and it was very difficult to say just these words.
"Blood oxygen can't go up."
"You're ......"
"I'm going to give you a microbiome-regulating agent right now to balance your gastrointestinal function." The nurse said as she plunged the needle into the hanging bottle.
Suddenly, Gu Ji's drowsy brain reacted suddenly, "You, why don't you turn on the light, cough cough cough ......"
……
……
"Forest monk! Monk? ”
