Chapter 53: The Shangyuan Epidemic
Fortunately, many people were still infected with the wind chill the next day, but at a glance, it was a little more sparse than yesterday's.
Because of the wind and cold here, the pharmacy couldn't even take care of other illnesses for a few days, until a few days later. It can be considered to be freed up to spare manpower to continue vaccination, some other common diseases and pharmacy surgery.
Seeing this scene, Zheng Xiong's heart also relaxed, and there was no big mistake in being careful. In the past two days, I have been making masks and issuing masks, which can play a role to some extent, and there are only one or two doctors in the pharmacy who are on leave due to illness.
In the past few days, a lot of masks have been saved, and they are all piled up in the warehouse, and with the other three parties sharing the pressure, it is not a problem to squeeze out a warehouse.
On this day, seeing that the pharmacy was back on track, Zheng Xiong convened a simple meeting with everyone in the pharmacy.
"Everyone has worked hard in the past few days, and the official also sees it in his heart, when he is on duty, everyone goes to Medical Officer Wu to receive fifty Wen, and in the past few days of fatigue, he uses this money to make up for the deficit in his body."
"Master Xie."
Deafening, not a big effort, the return can be described as rich, and today's treatment is also rising gradually, this thank you is from the heart.
"Well, wearing a mask these days, some people are dissatisfied, or don't understand, I see it in my eyes, no one takes off the mask because of this, I am very satisfied. It's empty today, and the official will explain to you that in the future, you can also take precautions against this kind of disease that can be transmitted from person to person. ”
"Man has seven orifices, eyes, ears, mouth, nose, navel, and asshole. The exhaled breath from the mouth and nose and the filth from the asshole may contain toxins. The eyes, ears and navel are not a big problem and do not exhale air, so there is no need to worry about it. The toxins in the body of a sick patient will spread through these places, and if you have been exposed to these substances, you may pass them on to yourself through your mouth and nose, which is why the official told you to wear a mask. ”
"As for what these substances and toxins are, whether they exist or not, after a while, this official will show you a look, and let you see what a flower and a world are."
After Zheng Xiong finished speaking, he picked up the teacup and left some time for them to digest what he had just said.
The doctors were still talking to themselves at first, but slowly they became louder. There are many who believe and those who do not, and there are some who worship Zheng Xiong to the point of blind trust, and debate for their respective positions.
"Although what the adults said is reasonable, but is it arbitrary, the medical saint Zhang Zhongjing said that the infection of typhoid fever is caused by the spirit of the times, and it will occur at a fixed time every year, I have no opinion on wearing a mask, but the others have to be carefully considered."
Some people echo this, they are all older, and this question is too advanced.
"When have you ever let us down, listen to your lord."
These words are obviously more recognized, Zheng Xiong's prestige is too high, and others may not be able to study such Taos in their lifetime. Among them, Zhang Peng, who is a surgeon, feels the deepest, the more he can feel that Zheng Xiong's occasional guidance looks like an antelope hanging on its horns, and he is confused, but after clinical trials, they are all targeted, so that the survival rate of patients has been improved.
"Okay, don't argue, I don't need you to believe it, after a while, I will open your eyes, and you will know what to do, now just do what I say." In the future, the doctor on duty will put on a mask for me, and spray me with alcohol for disinfection every time I use it before I can use it again. Zhang Peng, you too, bring it to me when you operate on a patient. ”
"Yes, sir."
"It's okay, let's disperse."
Everyone saluted and dismissed, and the masked doctors at Huimin Pharmacy also brought some talking points to the city of Nanjing.
After a few good days, a small official from Huimin Pharmacy came to the lobby on this day, found a doctor and asked.
"Zheng Tiling is not here, Lord Yin has something to do."
Concise, the doctor thought for a moment.
"Yes, I saw you here in the morning, and now you should be at the printing house, I'll take you there."
I was busy, I went to touch the fish, I was lazy, and my body was a little stiff after sitting for a long time.
Not far away, the two soon arrived at the printing house and found Zheng Xiong in the corner.
"My lord, Lord Fu Yin asked you to come over."
"I don't know what's going on, please tell me a thing or two."
"I don't know about this, but I heard that the recent epidemic in Shangyuan County is a bit fierce, maybe it has something to do with it."
"Thank you, I'll go to the mansion later, and invite you to dinner."
"Don't dare, it's a trivial matter, adults don't have to care."
After a brief tidying up, Zheng Xiong followed the little official to the mansion.
In the palace, a lot of people have gathered, and the county orders under the jurisdiction of the Tianfu and their own officials have all arrived, chatting in twos and threes, and seeing Zheng Xiong arrive, some colleagues who had some friendships in the past also surrounded two and followed Zheng Xiong to talk about the experience.
Like Nanjing City, a spring rain came down, and many people fell ill, and the pharmacy in Shangyuan County is not comparable to Zheng Xiong here.
Many people did not buy medicine, but the small illness dragged on for a long time, it was very serious, and the protective measures were not effective, and gradually spread throughout the county, and there were many serious illnesses and even deaths, although the fatality rate of this wind and cold is not high, but it spreads, and it is definitely not a pleasant thing.
The county order of Shangyuan County wanted to conceal it at first, so he didn't care about it, but he ordered the city gate to be blocked, so as not to leak it and affect his future.
Or the little official who was passing by found the abnormality and told Zheng Yiyan, Zheng Yiyan summoned the Shangyuan County Order, only to learn that the situation in Shangyuan County was already very serious, and hurriedly summoned all the subordinate officials of Ying Tianfu to think about countermeasures.
Fu Yin Zheng Yiyan arrived, and the meeting was officially opened.
"Shangyuan County will put it down first, and talk about the situation in other counties and Yingtianfu, and whether there is a similar situation."
"My lord, Lishui is fine, there is no large-scale epidemic."
"My lord, Jiang Ning is the same, no problem."
~~~
"My lord, there is no problem in Nanjing City, I heard that hundreds of people were infected with wind chill at the beginning, and there were dozens of people in Huimin Pharmacy, and they also made a mask, and there are very few people who have wind chill these days."
After asking around, there was no problem with Ying Tianfu and the six counties under its jurisdiction, and Zheng Yiyan was also relieved.
"Then only the question of Shangyuan County remains, what about Zheng Xiong?"
"My lord, the lower official is here."
Zheng Yiyan was a little unhappy, I don't know if he saw that the bill of Huimin Pharmacy was a dime or something else.
"Zheng Xiong, there is such a serious epidemic in Shangyuan County, do you know it?"
"I don't know, should I know?"
"Of course, you should know that Yingtianfu is not only one Nanjing City, last time His Majesty upgraded your Huimin Pharmacy, of course, including the six counties under its jurisdiction."
Zheng Yiyan is a little hot.
Zheng Xiong said innocently.
"But the lower officials didn't receive feedback from the pharmacy below, and no one came to me to report."
Hearing this, Zheng Yiyan looked at the local county order.
"Is that so?"
"My lord, it's almost this, my pharmacy didn't react, so I handled it myself, and the lower official also caused a big disaster."
The county magistrate of Shangyuan County hurriedly spoke, the current Zheng Xiong can no longer be offended, and he is still waiting for Zheng Xiong to solve the matter, and it is true to leave a good impression on Zheng Xiong now.
The others also opened their mouths when they heard this.
"Lord Hui, the medicinal materials we have here are all allocated by the crude drug warehouse of the Tai Hospital, and the others are nothing serious, Xu has not changed yet, thinking that it is still the Tai Hospital to claim it, and I didn't go to Zheng Ti to claim the yamen."
