In the dormitory of the county hospital, Zhong Zhennan was writing a letter to his son.
Since his problem was investigated, he has been able to correspond with his family.
Therefore, some time ago, he wrote a letter to his wife and children who were far away in Shanghai, briefly explaining his decision to postpone his return to the city and the reasons.
After all, he had received an order from Shanghai People's Hospital to return to the city, and his family knew about it. If he didn't go back for no reason, he would inevitably worry his family.
And just today, he was very happy to receive a reply from his son.
In the letter, his son Zhong Qi first told him about the situation at home, telling him that everything was fine at home, that his mother was working well, and that his grandparents were in good health.
Then, the son said that the whole family was very supportive of his decision.
At the same time, my son also said in the letter that he had signed up to join a scientific research team and would leave for the Northwest next month.
If he can come back before May, maybe we can meet him.
So after get off work today, Zhong Zhennan returned to his dormitory and wrote a reply to his son.
But before I finished writing the letter, I was interrupted by a sudden and urgent knock on the door!
Fortunately, Zhong Zhennan has long been accustomed to such emergencies during his years in the county hospital. He knows without thinking that there must be emergency patients ahead.
It's fine at seven or eight o'clock like this, but sometimes at two or three in the morning when I'm sleeping soundly, I'll be pulled out of bed by someone.
However, what doctors do is to save lives and heal the wounded. When it comes to human life, everything else can be ignored.
Zhong Zhennan didn't have time to think too much. He immediately changed his slippers, grabbed the white coat on the hanger, put it on, and opened the door!
After listening to the female nurse's briefing, he immediately ran forward without thinking much.
He trotted to the front, and when he saw Zhou Yang at the door, holding a lesbian in his arms, he subconsciously thought that Zhou Yang's wife was about to give birth, and immediately said: "What are you doing standing there, why don't you go to the delivery room?"
Zhou Yang said hurriedly: "Uncle Zhong, she is not my wife, but a female educated youth from the village!"
Zhong Zhennan breathed a sigh of relief and then asked, "What's going on?"
"Sudden illness, high fever, vomiting blood, and the person has gone into shock!"
"Let's go to my office!"
Then, under the leadership of Zhong Zhennan, several people hurriedly carried the female educated youth to the office.
Putting the female educated youth on the examination bed, Zhong Zhennan immediately stepped forward to examine her.
However, when Zhong Zhennan lifted the thin quilt around the female educated youth, she suddenly took a breath of cold air.
Then, he lost his voice and said three words: "Hemorrhagic fever!"
After hearing these three words, except for Zhou Yang, the faces of the other two female educated youths and the female nurse who followed behind turned pale!
Hemorrhagic fever is a disease that is familiar to most people. In the past 20 to 30 years or even longer, it has often appeared in the eyes of ordinary people, but every time it appears, it is accompanied by pain and death.
Especially in the past two decades after the founding of the People's Republic of China, reports of hemorrhagic fever have become more frequent, and it has become an infectious disease on par with "Keshan disease".
The early "hemorrhagic fever" only appeared in Heilongjiang Province, but soon the disease began to spread to all provinces across the country. Particularly in engineering construction sites such as Shaanxi and Anhui, local outbreaks have occurred.
The most important thing is that once this disease occurs, it is not just one or two cases, but an outbreak of hundreds or thousands of cases, with an extremely high mortality rate.
Therefore, after hearing that this female educated youth was suffering from hemorrhagic fever, everyone else was frightened.
Because in almost all rumors and reports, hemorrhagic fever is contagious, which means that people like them may also contract this terrible disease after coming into contact with patients.
Zhong Zhennan took a deep breath, and then said to the female nurse on the side: "First cool down the patient, and then prepare to replenish plasma and fluids..."
Before he finished speaking, he heard Zhou Yang say: "Uncle Zhong, wait a minute, I can cure her disease!"
"You know this disease...can you really treat it?"
"Um!"
Then Zhou Yang said to the female nurse: "Have you got the medicine I asked you to find?"
"Bring it!"
With that said, the female nurse handed a tray with medicines to Zhou Yang.
Zhou Yang immediately took the tray, found adrenocortical hormone, and immediately injected it into the body of the sick female educated youth.
Since the female educated youth had vomited blood and was in shock, and her blood pressure was relatively low, Zhou Yang immediately replenished her with fluids.
At the same time, someone tested the female educated youth's blood type and gave her a blood transfusion to replenish her blood volume.
After doing this, Zhou Yang asked the two female educated youths next to him and learned that the patient had not peed for several days.
He immediately injected an appropriate amount of diuretics into the patient's veins according to the situation.
During the whole process, Zhong Zhennan helped while carefully observing Zhou Yang's handling methods.
After injecting the diuretic, Zhou Yang immediately asked the female nurse to handle the hospitalization procedures for the patient, and asked the two female educated youths who accompanied him to pay close attention to the patient's condition.
What Zhou Yang didn't expect was that the two female educated youths sobbed softly when they heard his words.
"Why are you two crying?"
"Zhou educated youth, do you think we will also get this disease? Will we die?" One of the female educated youth asked in tears.
Zhou Yang understood as soon as he heard this. Apparently these two female educated youths thought that hemorrhagic fever was contagious, so they were afraid.
He immediately said: "This disease is not spread from person to person. You don't have to worry about getting sick from contact with your sister Qiao'er!"
"Really...really?"
"Of course it's true. If it was really human-to-human transmission, I would have hid far away myself. How could I dare to bring her to the hospital!" Zhou Yang said with a smile.
"Yes!"
After appeasing the two female educated youths, Zhong Zhennan pulled Zhou Yang back to his office.
As soon as he entered the door, Zhong Zhennan said in a deep voice: "Which lesbian is from your village?"
"Um!"
"Now that you know about hemorrhagic fever, you should understand how terrible this disease is. Immediately notify the people in your village to conduct a large-scale investigation. In addition, we must quickly report it to the county!"
Zhou Yang said immediately: "I have already asked people to investigate, and anyone with a similar situation will be sent to the county hospital soon!"
"That's good, I hope the situation won't be too serious, otherwise..."
However, before Zhong Zhennan could finish speaking, Zhou Yang interrupted him and said, "Uncle Zhong, the situation may be more serious than you think!"
"What's wrong?"
"When I was eating in the provincial capital a few days ago, I overheard someone saying that his wife died of vomiting blood, but I didn't think much about it at the time..."
"You mean this kind of infectious disease has also appeared in the provincial capital?"
"It's very possible!"
"hiss!"
Zhong Zhennan couldn't help but take a breath. Once hemorrhagic fever occurs, it will not be one or two isolated cases, but one after another.
He couldn't help but think of the scene 16 years ago when he and his mentor participated in the rescue of hemorrhagic fever patients. At that time, the disease broke out at the construction site of a large water conservancy project. Hundreds of cases appeared overnight, and There are many seriously ill patients.
At that time, his mentor was transferred from Shanghai to the scene overnight to participate in the treatment, and he accompanied him as an assistant.
Zhong Zhennan remembered that the rescue operations had been uninterrupted since they arrived at the scene, and there were so many new patients every day, many of whom were already in shock when they were delivered.
Even in order to accommodate and rescue more patients, all the walls of the hospital were opened, but even so, a large number of patients still died, and the entire hospital was like a purgatory on earth.
The tragic scene, 16 years later, is still vivid in his mind.
What he didn't expect was that just when he was about to leave Yunshan County, this terrible infectious disease would appear here.
What is even more frightening is that this disease is likely to appear in the provincial capital of Saibei Province and has even spread.
Think about a construction site where dozens or hundreds of people died. What would it be like if such a terrible infectious disease broke out in a large city with a population of more than one million.
Thinking of this, Zhong Zhennan couldn't help but shudder!
