The most recent case of BSE infection was reported in the United States in 2018. However, the American brother who was diagnosed with vCJD is not a geek who likes to eat raw cow brains, he is a hunter. According to the patient's family, he showed symptoms after eating the squirrel meat he had hunted.

Sun Lien read several CJD-related literature and reports in the shortest possible time, and then went to talk to the patient's family with a very heavy heart. Through a short period of study, he already has a preliminary understanding of the disease. And the results and content of the understanding are summarized - if it is really CJD, then the most optimistic situation after this little girl is also nine deaths.

"Is Chen Tianyi's family there?" Sun Lien walked out of the rescue room and called for his family in the rescue hall, "Chen Tianyi's family members come here." ”

A middle-aged couple walked over quickly, and the two of them looked like all the other family members, panicked and anxious. However, Sun Lien saw the unusualness of the two at a glance - both of them carried several strings of Buddhist beads in their hands, and the beads made of wood were hung with a layer of lubricated pulp, which seemed to be very old.

"We are. The middle-aged man stood on tiptoe and tried to look over Sun Lien's shoulder to see the situation in the emergency room behind him, "How is my daughter?"

"You two are her parents, aren't you?" Sun Lien confirmed the identities of the two, "The inspection is still continuing, please come with me to the small conference room." I have something to ask you. ”

"Has Chen Tianyi ever been abroad recently? Have you ever traveled to the United States, the United Kingdom, or Brazil?" returned to the small conference room, and after pouring a glass of water for the two, Sun Lien began his own inquiry. First of all, he needs to ask according to the vCJD, and he has to first determine whether Chen Tianyi has been to the mad cow disease epidemic area.

Chen Tianyi's mother shook her head, "No, our children don't even have passports. She's only in her second year of high school, where is the time for her to go abroad?"

Sun Lien frowned and thought about it, some places in China will sell beef smuggled from mad cow disease and foot-and-mouth disease areas. Although I have only seen about it in the news, it is a real possibility. Sun Lien thought for a while and asked, "She is now in her second year of high school, will she live on campus or at home?"

"Go home and stay. Chen Tianyi's mother was a little dazed, she couldn't figure out where her daughter lived and why it had anything to do with her daughter's condition, "What's wrong with this?"

"If she goes home to live, she usually buys what she usually eats from the school cafeteria?" Sun Lien asked when he asked, and the hairs on the back of her neck stood up. What if this infected beef is used in schools...... The consequences are unimaginable!

Chen Tianyi's father shook his head and said, "Our family's eating habits are different from those outside, and Jiaying usually brings his meals from home. ”

"Different eating habits?" Sun Lien asked with a frown, "What is your habit?"

"Our family believes in Buddhism, so everyone in our family is vegetarian. Chen Tianyi's father raised the Buddhist beads in his hand and said to Sun Lien, "Tianyi has been a vegetarian with us since she was a child, and she never eats outside food. We usually cook everything we eat at school at home and let her bring it to school. ”

Chen Tianyi is a strict vegetarian? Sun Lien is the first time he has encountered such a patient. He was a little unsure of what level of vegetarian habit Chen Tianyi's father said about "vegetarianism". "When you say vegetarian, do you only eat vegetarian food, or can you accept eggs and milk, or fish, eggs and milk?"

"Vegetarian only. Chen Tianyi's mother added a little nervously, "Does this have anything to do with her condition?"

Sun Lien frowned and thought for a while, "It's hard to say now, but this can negate our judgment at the beginning." He turned to the two of them and asked, "What happened to her when she fainted today? Which of you noticed her fainting first?"

"It's Tianyi's classmate. Their school has an exam this afternoon, and the exam is over and ends early. She came back with her classmates. Chen Tianyi's father rubbed his head with a headache, "Tianyi was always nauseous and wanted to vomit a few days ago, and after the doctor prescribed medicine to her, we were not at ease, and specially invited her classmates to go home with her." As a result, she didn't expect that she was still two or three minutes away from home, and she suddenly fainted. Her classmates quickly called 120, and then we arrived. ”

It sounds logical, and the parents are acting with caution. Sun Lien thought about it for a while, but didn't find any other problems, "Did she have any other physical discomforts before, such as frequent drowsiness and headaches?"

Chen Tianyi's parents glanced at each other and said cautiously, "This child is usually relatively weak, and he often got sick when he was a child. But it's not too serious, mainly colds and the like. ”

Not...... Sun Lien frowned. In this questioning, there are three things that he finds suspicious. The first is veganism. Most of the vegetarianism popular in Europe and the United States is a compromise vegetarianism, at least egg and dairy products are acceptable, and some people can also accept seafood. Such "vegetarianism" can drastically reduce the nutrient deficiencies caused by food intake. For example, vitamin B12 and vitamin D and so on. And vegans have more or less problems with this. Vitamin D deficiency can directly lead to low immunity, which may correspond to "the body is relatively weak since childhood"?

The second suspicious is about Chen Tianyi's fainting. The children in the second year of high school are busy with schoolwork, what school will let students go home early after the exam? Today is Thursday. According to Sun Lien's experience, at this time, you have to finish the exam and take a few classes to "make full use of the time". Sophomores in high school, even if they were just students in the first semester, shouldn't be treated this way.

The third suspicious point...... Sun Lien replayed the picture of Chen Tianyi's parents glancing at each other in his mind. The eye contact between the two made Sun Lien always feel a little concerned.

"Have you two always believed in Buddhism?" Sun Lien thought for a moment and changed to another question, "When did the habit of being a strict vegetarian begin?"

"From ...... From the year before Tianyi was born, right?" The answer to this question seemed to be not very clear to the two, and the answer was a little uncertain. "It should have started when the two of us came out to live?" Chen Tianyi's father asked his wife, but he suddenly changed his words, "Does this have anything to do with it?"

"I need to think about whether there will be a congenital disease. Sun Lien already had seven or eight points in his heart, and the couple in front of him definitely didn't say anything directly. However, he was not sure if the concealment had anything to do with the diagnosis. "If you also maintain a strict vegetarian diet during pregnancy, there is a risk that the fetus will have developmental problems. ”

The couple fell silent at the same time, the wife covered her face, and Chen Tianyi's father slapped himself directly.

"Smack!" This sudden movement startled Sun Lien.

"The two of us...... It's a cousin. After being slapped in the face, Chen Tianyi's father took a few deep breaths and said what he had hidden and didn't say explicitly, he didn't have time to worry about this, "Could this have anything to do with her illness?"
