Han Rong reached for the test report and looked at the clinical diagnosis column below.
It shows clearly above.
Highly sensitive HIV-1 RNA quantitative detection, the result is 0
His heart suddenly shook, and he was stunned for a moment.
After working at the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention for several years, he has seen so many patient test reports, but he has never seen a result of 0.
For a moment, I thought I had made a mistake, and I was about to ask, but suddenly I remembered that this was a report from the hospital, and it would definitely not be wrong.
"Is it a mistake? How could it be zero?"
Suddenly, an exclamation sounded from behind him, shouting out his previous thoughts.
Han Rong looked up and found a row of people standing behind him. They were all like big roosters, stretching their necks to read the test report in his hand.
It turned out that, unknowingly, people in the outpatient hall slowly gathered around the two of them, listening attentively.
Seeing that he remained silent, the man behind him came closer and asked with some surprise.
"Doctor, am I reading this correctly? Is this report true or false? Is she really an AIDS patient?"
"Yes, doctor, please say something."
"We all want to know, just tell us."
The people around asked all kinds of questions, all looking a little anxious.
More people crowded towards him, wanting to see the report results with their own eyes.
Han Rong smiled: "This is the inspection report from the Municipal Infectious Disease Hospital. It must be true."
Upon hearing this, the whole place was in an uproar.
Someone pointed at Ding Xiaomei and asked: "Is she a patient? Is this her test report?"
After receiving Han Rong's affirmation, everyone was extremely excited.
People quickly crowded over, squeezing the two of them until there was no space left.
"Doctor, what's going on?"
"Is there any new medicine out there?"
"What I heard from this woman just now seems to be that she participated in some kind of clinical trial. Is it the effect of this trial?"
"Then I also want to participate. Where can I sign up? What are the conditions?"
Question after question, people kept asking, getting louder and louder.
Seeing the excitement among the crowd, Han Rong quickly stood up and comforted him: "Everyone, listen to me..."
As soon as the words came out, everyone fell silent and looked at him, waiting expectantly for him to speak.
"It's like this. Sanqing Group has released a specific HIV drug. You must have heard about it. We are currently cooperating with our Center for Disease Control and Prevention to conduct this Phase III clinical trial."
"Due to the limited number of experimental places, we are currently only open to infants, young children, pregnant women, or patients with advanced and critical illnesses."
"Don't worry, everyone. This drug is very effective, and the clinical trials are going very smoothly. It is estimated that it will be launched on the fast track in a few months, and you will all be able to use it by then."
"As for the specific efficacy of the drug, you should have seen it from her. She is a pregnant woman who has just been infected with HIV. She was just discovered by the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention last month. Then she participated in the clinical trial and the first course of treatment was completed. Afterwards, the virus has been eliminated from the body and can no longer be detected, and the body’s immune index is close to normal.”
"In this case, as long as mother-to-child interruption is done, there is a 99% chance that the baby will not be infected after birth. In this way, both mother and baby can stay healthy."
"Everyone must have confidence in this drug..."
At this point, everyone started talking.
"That's great. You don't have to worry about it not being cured."
This is the young couple, looking very happy, hugging each other tightly.
"Oh, don't scratch my face anymore. Listen, the doctors have said that this disease can be cured with new drugs. But it's just a matter of money. Don't worry, I'll pay for it! I'll definitely cure you .”
The scratched man patted his chest and spoke shamelessly to the woman next to him.
The woman turned her head and said: "It's great to have money. This is a fatal disease. How can I just cure it? Are you going to ignore the mental damage it caused me? I need to pay more."
"Okay, okay, easy to say, easy to say." The man knew he was wrong and nodded hurriedly.
The middle-aged man in his fifties also stood quietly on the periphery, silently.
The tears on his face had disappeared, and his eyes were filled with sadness and joy, and there was a hint of hope.
Suddenly, a voice sounded again.
"Doctor, can I get this new medicine for free?"
Upon hearing this question, everyone stopped talking and looked at Han Rong together.
Obviously, everyone is very concerned about the answer to this question.
Although the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention can receive free drugs, they are all generic drugs that have been on the market for more than ten years and have expired, and the self-funded drugs are the latest imported drugs that have only been on the market for a few years. Let’s not talk about the efficacy, let’s talk about the side effects. Neither can be said in the same terms.
"Yes, I took free medicine, and the side effects were really severe. I felt like life would be worse than death..."
Some people were muttering under their breath, and then someone looked at him sternly, scaring him to shut up quickly.
Han Rong breathed a long sigh of relief, nodded and said, "Of course."
"Sanqing Group has promised to provide this drug to the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention at cost price after it is launched, and then we will provide it to AIDS patients across the country free of charge."
"The general policy is to provide it to everyone free of charge first. After one or two years, when the disease is under control, it will be included in the medical insurance. This medicine needs to be taken all the time to maintain health. At that time, everyone can use the medical insurance to buy it directly at the hospital. , the price will definitely be very favorable when the time comes, and it will not cause an excessive financial burden to everyone.”
"Of course, pregnant women and infants and young children have always been able to receive free drugs. Patients with financial difficulties can also always receive free drugs. AIDS is a public health problem, and eradicating HIV is a basic policy and will continue to be implemented."
As soon as he finished speaking, the audience suddenly burst into thunderous cheers.
"Long live xxx!"
"I love Sanqing!"
"Oh my God, I can't believe it. Is this pie in the sky?"
"Oh my God, my love for my motherland will last until death!"
"It turns out that the country has not given up on us, woo woo woo!"
"I will never be cynical again. I will scold this and that every day. Now I really feel like a clown. I will definitely repent and start a new life in the future."
"I will work hard and give back to society!"
People were so excited that their faces turned red. Many people even hugged each other and cheered loudly.
An older man stood in the crowd, with a solemn expression and tears in his eyes, and sang the national anthem loudly as if no one else was watching.
The cheers gradually died away, and slowly, people became much quieter.
The loud national anthem sounded, getting louder and louder, resounding throughout the hall.
****
Eagle Country, Mayo Clinic.
A doctor with white hair and beard looked at the examination report in his hand and was shocked.
"Oh, my God, it's so surprising. The virus in your body has completely disappeared, and general examinations can no longer detect the presence of HIV. Your immune index has also returned to normal levels."
He looked at a handsome young man in his early thirties in front of him.
"Mr. Justin, in a sense, your AIDS has been completely cured, but we will continue to observe the results after stopping the drug to see how long it will take for it to relapse."
Justin, the most popular movie star in Eagle Country, couldn't hide the joy on his face after hearing this.
He breathed a sigh of relief, rushed up and hugged the doctor: "That's great, thank you so much. It seems that as long as I continue to take medicine, I no longer have to worry about this damn HIV virus."
The doctor shrugged and said, "To be honest, you have to thank Sanqing. Although I don't have a good impression of this Oriental pharmaceutical company because they always have various discriminatory behaviors, I have to say that they are very good at drug research and development. The strength is very strong.”
"Thanks to your participation in this clinical trial, we were able to have such a satisfactory treatment effect."
"Although other drugs in cocktail therapy can allow you to live like a normal person, they cannot completely eliminate the virus in the body. They can only stay at a relatively small number and still infect others."
"But this medicine is different. After taking it, the virus in the body will really disappear. It is really a miraculous medicine."
The doctor continued to look at his test reports and was filled with emotion.
Justin rubbed his hands together excitedly and said, "I just received a script for a new movie. This is a popular action movie. There are some difficult actions in it. Originally, I was very worried that I would be injured and bleed, and I might have to hire a stand-in. , now that I have recovered my health, I can star in it myself, and I will definitely win this drama."
The doctor showed a professional smile: "Congratulations, I believe you will be able to see your heroic appearance on the big screen soon."
Justin left with satisfaction. He felt that the wisest decision in his life was to participate in this HIV specific drug clinical trial.
"I Have a Picture Book of Ghosts and Gods"
He accidentally contracted AIDS a few years ago and has been carefully concealing it. Although he has been taking medicine and can still film like a normal person, his acting options are obviously limited.
Those scenes that are more dangerous and can easily lead to HIV exposure can no longer be accepted.
And they have to constantly check the media to hide the news.
Now, with this new drug, he has no HIV virus in his body and will not infect anyone else.
As a popular niche actor, his acting career has suddenly broadened a lot, and he is now older, so he can try to transform into a tough guy in action movies.
Perhaps, he will become the next action movie star and the rising number one male god in Hollywood.
