Chapter 43: The Death of the Sick

After the power was restored, there was another rush of scrambling, and when all the patients were settled and the various devices were reconnected, everyone had time to investigate the sudden power outage.

Cheng Jun had just returned from outside, and when the power outage began, he was sent by the hospital security captain to ask about the power supply.

"I asked, all the villas were out of power just now, not just us."

Cheng Jun ran all the way back, took a breath, and then he continued, "The person in charge of maintenance said that this situation started from the time of the heavy rainstorm, and suddenly there would be a power outage, and after a while, they got better again, they have checked it many times, and they can't find any problems." ”

"What's going on? Doesn't the hospital have a separate backup power supply? Why didn't it start just now! "Dean Dai has never experienced such a large-scale medical malpractice, and he almost had a heart attack.

The head nurse on the side said, "Dean, since the power supply is unstable, we have used the backup power supply......

Dean Dai was stunned, so just now, even the backup power supply had a problem?

His brow furrowed and he closed his eyes in exhaustion.

In this damn last days, even if he is forced to work for a murderer, he is still doing things to save people, but in this situation, he can be regarded as a murderer, right?

There are a few patients who may still be alive if they hadn't been ventilated early in the morning......

Including the emergency room, this power outage directly led to the death of eight patients, and after the power was restored, six more people died of the sequelae of the power outage period.

Doctors and nurses are busy treating patients, carrying corpses, reassuring patients and families, and being careful not to catch the infection themselves.

On the third day, there were also infected people in the medical care.

On the fourth and fifth days, the situation got worse day by day, half of the doctors and nurses fell, and there were more and more new patients.

Medical care has decreased, patients have doubled, and Ren Zhi has been busy until the sky is dark.

After the patients, they would even simply write a name, gender, age, and stick it on their wrists, and even the medical records were as simple as a piece of paper.

I can't manage it, I really can't manage it.

Ren Zhi began to measure blood pressure, physical examination, and infusion as soon as he opened his eyes every day...... Dry until dark. It doesn't matter if it's a doctor's job or a nurse's job, if there's a job, you can do it.

Many of the patients' family members also volunteered to take care of their own families and help other patients.

In the face of such an unprecedented disaster, they put aside all their hatred. In fact, in the final analysis, these people who are still alive have no blood feud with Brother Leopard. Those who really have a grudge are already dead.

There were originally about 1,000 residents in the villa area, plus the staff, about 2,000 people, plus the 300 people brought by Brother Leopard, a total of more than 2,400 people.

There are still 1,600 left who are not infected.

I don't know if when the plague period is over, if there will be half of it left.

A colleague who was still rescuing patients together yesterday also fell on his post today.

Every day a patient dies, and every day a new patient comes in, Ren Zhi quickly got used to it and became numb.

Only when I sleep, I will realize that those painful moans, mournful cries, and desperate screams seem to be echoing in my ears all the time, so clear, so heart-wrenching.

Ren Zhi also thought about whether to simply take advantage of the current emptiness in defense, sneak out directly, and walk away.

But every time she saw the patients who looked at her with hopeful eyes, she couldn't help but tell herself in her heart that she would wait a little longer, at least give them their last ride.

Everyone was originally from two worlds, and if it weren't for the end times, Ren Zhi and these people might never have intersected.

But now, their previous connection is deeper than that of their relatives.

She will be their funeral attendant.

————————————

Ren Zhi thought that such a busy situation would last for a long time, but she did not expect that only a week after the peak of the number of patients, she had almost nothing to do.

Because the base is closed and managed, people from the outside can't get in, and people inside can't go out, and the situation inside the base has reached a balance.

The number of patients is no longer increasing, and the people who were infected before are almost dead.

Those who deserve to be sick have gotten it, and those who don't deserve it have gotten it again.

The disinfection supplies and reagents and test strips used in the hospital were also announced to have been consumed today, and the medicines had already been used up.

The only thing that the few patients who are still in the hospital is to self-isolate and not infect others.

In essence, it is waiting for death.

There were finally enough hospital beds, and many were even free, but the patients were still concentrated in the emergency department, and the doctors were also gathered

Listening to the unconscious moans of the patient from time to time in the bed curtain, all the doctors were silent and sat in their places.

The old, bad-tempered old doctor was still flipping through books with his reading glasses, trying to find some way to ease the patient's pain.

But there was no medicine in the hospital that could be used, and there was painkiller in Ren Zhi's space, but she couldn't take it out.

A momentary soft-heartedness in exchange for endless troubles, and even taking one's own life, this kind of mistake is enough to make once in the previous life.

All she could do was prick the patients with needles so that they could sleep for a while.

What Ren Zhi didn't know was that the heavy atmosphere had permeated from the hospital to the entire base. There was a depression everywhere in the base.

Finally one day, Ren Zhi came to work in the emergency room in the morning, but was suddenly told: "Go back to the dressing room, you are not needed here." ”

She knew that the last plague patient had also died.

With the exception of the two able-bodied members, all of the infected were wiped out.

These two people who escaped also fell into a lifelong problem. Their lung function has deteriorated so much that they are no longer able to perform heavy physical work, and they will not be able to breathe even after walking a few more steps.

Passing by the emergency room, it was empty, and people didn't know where to go.

……

That evening, Ren Zhi finally left the hospital after a long absence.

It's already February, but the temperature is close to 30 degrees Celsius.

The unusual climate fills the air with a feeling of humidity.

Ren Zhi thought in a trance, did the high temperature make the virus lose its good transmission conditions, and the plague could end?

But the answer to this question doesn't matter anymore.

Taking a breath of fresh air, Ren Zhi made out the direction and finally remembered where he lived.

After the redistribution of Brother Leopard, the single-family villas all have their own uses, or the people who live in Brother Leopard, most of the aborigines are crowded into townhouses.

But all the way back to the villa, almost all the people passing by on the way were quiet, as if no one lived there.

At first, people were afraid of infection, but later found that no protection worked, so they no longer deliberately kept their distance, but the death of relatives and friends made people unable to raise their spirits to socialize, except for work, that is, they were locked at home.

Recently, too many people have died, the funeral cannot be held, the corpses are all burned, and every household has hung a white cloth at the door, walking through the middle, as if walking in a cemetery.

……

When Ren Zhi opened the door and entered the house, he happened to bump into Qingqing and Zhuo Peng about to go out.

Everyone was stunned.

Ren Zhi hadn't been back for a long time, and Qingqing almost forgot that she also lived here.
