Chapter 422: To Each His Own
"Dean Wu, what's the situation inside?" asked Zhao Yuanchang.
"How do I know? I'm not going to waste my time here. Wu Yaodong left without looking back.
Zhao Yuanchang looked at Wu Yaodong's back, and he naturally understood what was going on. The patient's condition is definitely not what Wu Yaodong thought, but it has improved, and Li Shengyu's experiment has made very good progress, otherwise, if there is no progress on Li Shengyu's side, or the patient's condition deteriorates, with Wu Yaodong's personality, he will not be able to leave so vaguely.
"Old Li, sure enough, ginger is still old and spicy. Our traditional Chinese medicine is a national treasure, and it can always play a role when it is critical. Zhao Yuanchang said.
"Whether it has an effect or not, it's too early to say. It's better to wait until you see the patient. And even if it works, the medicine we use is an essence version of the antidote that is a thousand times more concentrated. Moreover, the preparation process of this agent is extremely cumbersome, and only one researcher has been able to prepare it. Only one dose can be made a day, and at most only a few people. There are now hundreds of infected people, and it will take a long time. By that time, no one can be sure what will happen to the infected person. Li Shengyu said.
Zhao Yuanchang hurriedly asked, "Why is there only one person who can prepare it?
"I really don't need it. The recipe is not a secret, but it is too difficult to configure. No one else can learn at all. Do you think this medicine is simple?" Li Shengyu said.
"Elder Li, the leaders of the epidemic in northern Hebei are very concerned, can you make that student of yours work harder and prepare more medicines?" Zhao Yuanchang asked.
Li Shengyu shook his head: "If it's so easy, why am I talking about this? Also, if I can match this medicine, it doesn't matter, this medicine is my student's prescription, or a freshman student, although it is nominally my student, but people also use family technology, and this student is nominal after all." The last time there was an epidemic, we gave him 500 hundred for a dose. This time the potion was more difficult to dispense, and the potency was a thousand times greater than that of the antidote. ”
"That dose doesn't cost 500,000 yuan, hundreds of infected people, and it needs nearly 100 million dollars. Zhao Yuanchang said.
"How much is 100 million? If you develop antibodies to the virus like they do, can you finally develop them, not to mention, is 100 million enough for the final cost?
Zhao Yuanchang thought about it, this epidemic has lasted for so long, and the daily cost and impact are far more than 100 million that can be estimated. If the epidemic expands, the consequences will be even more severe.
Actually, that's not what I, as a student, asked for. And I'm fighting for me as a student. If Chinese medicine is to develop, it must be treated correctly. Isn't it advocating equal pay for equal work now? Why can't Chinese medicine charge the same fees as Western medicine to cure a disease? We charge a few hundred yuan for medical expenses, and we make huge profits if others are expensive. Others charge tens of thousands, hundreds of thousands, or even millions of medical expenses, but they think it is very reasonable. If this continues, who would want to work as a Chinese medicine practitioner?" Li Shengyu said.
"Elder Li, what you said, I also think it is very reasonable. I'll talk to the ministry first. Also, Mr. Li, let's see if this fee can be reduced a little. 500,000 is still a little too much, 50,000 doses, what do you think?" Zhao Yuanchang asked.
Li Shengyu nodded: "I'll talk to my student about this." My purpose is not to fight for money. It's everyone's perception of TCM. You can't be superstitious about Chinese medicine, and you can't despise Chinese medicine. Traditional Chinese medicine is not only traditional medicine, but should also be a science. It is also a very important medical treatment. It should be properly placed in modern medicine. ”
"Old Li, don't worry. I'll give you your feedback. Here, I also apologize to Mr. Li. To be honest, I was a little contemptuous of Chinese medicine before, thinking that this epidemic mainly depends on them. Unexpectedly, the first to achieve results was our traditional Chinese medicine. Zhao Yuanchang said the word "we" very kindly.
"It's too early to say this, let's look at the patient's condition first. Li Shengyu said.
The door of the ward opened, and the medical staff who cleaned up inside came out, all of them fully armed, and the patients were still bound to the hospital bed and pushed out, covered with a quilt.
After the patient came out, he even looked up at Li Shengyu and the others.
Zhao Yuanchang and Li Shengyu glanced at each other, and they could see the joy in each other's eyes, and the patient's condition had obviously improved. They have been here for a few days and have been impressed by the response of the patients. If the patient does not get better, in this case, it must be a constant struggle and a constant yelling. Now it is so calm, and the patient's eyes are clear. It's no longer the same muddy as before.
"Hurry up and carry out all kinds of examinations on the patient!" Li Shengyu said excitedly.
Yuan Zhiming patted Luo Tianwang on the shoulder: "Little junior brother, I really admire you completely." ”
Liu Baiting also smiled: "If you don't accept it, you can't do it." Such a serious illness. There is still no eyebrows on the Western doctor's side, and our little junior brother can solve it with one pill. ”
"This time, I'm afraid that Wu Yaodong will have to be a man with his tail between his legs in the future. Yuan Zhiming said with a smile.
The results of the patient's examinations came out quickly, and the indicators were slowly returning to normal. He has also come to his senses. However, for them, everything before has been completely forgotten, and it is like a nightmare.
"Old Li, has the patient been cured?" asked Zhao Yuanchang.
"Looking at the indicators, the patient has indeed been cured. However, it is too early to draw conclusions whether the disease has been completely cured. After all, last time, at the beginning, a certain treatment effect was achieved, but later the patient's condition not only did not develop in a better direction, but worsened. , preferably for a few more days. Li Shengyu said.
Zhao Yuanchang shook his head: "No." The chiefs have been waiting for this news for a long time. I will report back to my superiors. Even if the situation of the infected person gets worse again, we can cope with it. ”
After Wu Yaodong went back, the first thing he did was to find Zeng Taiyun: "Dr. Zeng, when can you develop this antibody at the earliest?"
"Dean Wu, it's hard to say. At present, the original strain of the virus has not been found, and even if it is found, it may not be possible to develop antibodies. This kind of antibody development is a very complex and difficult task. And the antibody may not work properly when it is developed. After all, the virus is not completely fixed, and by that time, the virus may have already mutated. The greater the number of infected people, the longer the duration of the infection, and the greater the likelihood of mutation. The more specific the antibody we develop, the less effective it is against variants. Zeng Taiyun said.
"In that case, what's the use of us developing antibodies?" Wu Yaodong said in frustration.
"Then we can't help but develop it, even if at that time, there is a mutant strain of the virus, but we have the experience of this research and development, and we can quickly produce antibodies next time." Zeng Taiyun said.
"By the time you develop it, the daylilies will be cold. Li Shengyu's side has already come up with traditional Chinese medicine that can cure this infection. Do you say that it still makes sense for you to spend so long developing antibodies here? By the way, the cost of your research and development should not be low, right?" Wu Yaodong told me about what he had just seen.
After Zeng Taiyun heard the news, he was also a little disappointed: "If you want to carry out research and development, I am definitely not enough, I need to go to Kyoto as soon as possible, or go to Shanghai, and work in multiple teams in the research institute, which should be able to speed up the progress of research, but the cost is definitely not low, without tens of millions of funds, I am afraid that this research will not be done, and the research and development funds may even exceed 100 million in the end." However, now that the treatment is available, there is no need for this study. ”
After Zhao Yuanchang reported the situation to his superiors, he quickly got a reply and agreed to pay the medical expenses to Li Shengyu's research group at a price of 50,000 yuan per dose. Zhao Yuanchang was asked to coordinate with the local medical department to cooperate with Li Shengyu's research group to speed up the allocation of drugs. As for Zeng Yuntai's antibody research, it still passed the approval, but the cost of support was only a few million. The reason is also very simple, Chinese medicine can completely solve the current problem with millions of dollars, and the reason for using more money to develop antibodies that may not be effective is not to deal with this virus infection, but to prepare for similar emergencies in the future.
It seems to be a happy ending, but neither Li Shengyu nor Wu Yaodong are satisfied.
Li Shengyu believes that traditional Chinese medicine is still not treated equally. TCM only has treatment costs, but does not give any R&D funds. Western medicine doesn't do anything, and it can get a lot of research funding. In the future, when antibodies are developed, the cost of their antibodies will be 100% higher than Luo Tianwang's specific drugs. In the final analysis, the authorities are all from Western medicine, and they are more inclined to Western medicine.
Wu Yaodong also felt dissatisfied, although Li Shengyu's team played a greater role in this epidemic, the cost of traditional Chinese medicine is low, and the price of a dose of medicine is hundreds or thousands at most. But the above actually gave Li Shengyu's team a price of 50,000 yuan per dose. This is different from research funding, which is earmarked. In principle, the money can only be used for scientific research. However, the money that Li Shengyu's team made through the configured potions was different, and it belonged to their team's income. You can spend whatever you want. He also came to northern Hebei to help the epidemic area. But they could only go home empty-handed.
