"I'll do it! You are still young and still have great years! Keep your body useful to revitalize the medical family." Qian Yi said in a deep voice.
He is already old, and many young doctors still have their best years left, so there is no need to take this risk.
Yang Jie shook his head and said: "I'll do it! Mr. Qian went deep into Luoyang and found that most of the survivors of acne patients are young and strong people. As Mr. Qian gets older, his immunity will definitely decline. Yang is young and can resist Cowpox.”
Fan Zheng took the lead and said, "Don't argue anymore. According to the rules of doctors, in addition to using animals to test medicine, whoever prescribes the prescription must test the medicine on his own body. This is a responsibility." , is also an honor, since this prescription was prescribed by Fan, then only Fan can test the medicine on his own body."
At that moment, Fan Zheng stretched out his arm, made a cut on his arm with a medical knife, then applied cowpox pus on it and simply bandaged it to complete the cowpox vaccination.
"Brother Fan is reckless!"
Yang Jie suddenly felt heartbroken. Fan Zheng's behavior was too reckless, and Fan Zheng was the real leader of the medical family. If the medical family lost Yang Jie, they would still not be affected. If they lost Fan Zheng, I am afraid that the great reform cause would come to an abrupt end. .
Fan Zheng was confident. The method of cowpox had become widely popular in later generations. No one knew whether cowpox was effective. However, Fan Zheng, who came from a later generation, understood that this was the only way to deal with acne. Early vaccination with cowpox could save the life. More lives.
In order to quell the plague as soon as possible and save more people in Luoyang, he adopted the most direct and effective method, which was to test the medicine himself.
"Fan Taicheng is so righteous!"
Seeing this, all the doctors bowed solemnly to Fan Zheng.
"Give me a room. Now I have to isolate myself." After doing all this, Fan Zheng said solemnly.
"good!"
Qian Yi nodded helplessly, then arranged for Fan Zheng to self-isolate and personally recorded Fan Zheng's symptoms.
As the day passed, Fan Zheng did not feel the slightest discomfort.
On the seventh day, Fan Zhengcai felt a little headache, which was not a big problem for a lively young man.
On the eighth day, Fan Zheng felt a little cold, probably because he had a fever. This made Qian Yi feel like he was facing an enemy, because the incubation period of acne is seven to fifteen days, and many acne patients develop symptoms from the eighth day.
However, on the tenth day, Fan Zheng's symptoms disappeared and he completely recovered without any discomfort.
Qian Yi was not careless and continued to observe.
Fifteen days later, normal acne patients had already developed symptoms, but Fan Zheng was still intact. Except for a pimple mark on the wound where he was vaccinated, he had no symptoms of acne infection.
"This is recovery!"
Qian Yi looked at Fan Zheng in disbelief.
Fan Zheng nodded and said: "I think the cowpox has been cured. Whether cowpox can immunize acne still requires the final step, which is to face the acne head-on."
At that moment, Fan Zheng took off his protective clothing and even his mask, and walked directly into the patient's ward in full view of everyone.
All the doctors were shocked to see Fan Zheng walk into the isolation ward without any protection and come into contact with plague patients personally, and even worse, directly touch the pox plague with his wounds.
"Evil doctor Fan Zheng!"
All the doctors couldn't help but take a breath of cold air.
Everyone was as afraid of the plague as a tiger, but no one thought that Fan Zheng would take the initiative to come into contact with the plague. No one knew whether he was a doctor or a madman.
As time went by, this time Fan Zheng showed no symptoms of the pox plague, not even a headache or fever. This made everyone's eyes change from surprise to awe.
As the half-month period arrived, Fan Zheng walked out of the ward safe and sound.
I saw a group of doctors in white clothes and armor already standing outside the ward. Everyone looked at Fan Zheng, who was safe and sound, with burning eyes, as if they were seeing a rare treasure.
Fan Zheng looked around, shook his fist vigorously and said, "Everyone, I think the doctors have found a way to overcome the acne plague."
"good!"
Seeing Fan Zheng safe and sound, all the doctors looked enthusiastic and burst into cheers.
The plague has always been filled with human lives, the lives of the people and the lives of doctors. It took three years for the plague to be quelled. However, today, for the first time, doctors have found a way to cure the plague. They have made history as a medical family.
"Dang! Dang! Dang!"
As the bells of the White Horse Temple in Luoyang rang, all the doctors suddenly realized that the eighth year of Yuanyou was over.
"News has come from the court that the official official title is Shaosheng!" Qian Yi sighed.
"Shaosheng!"
Fan Zheng couldn't help but sigh. After he left the court, the official family was still affected by the new party.
Shaosheng naturally inherited the great reform cause of the late Emperor Shenzong. The new party proposed to use Shaosheng as the reign name, which shows the determination of the new party to restore the new law.
"Doctors must also speed up their pace." Fan Zheng said solemnly.
The doctors were all shocked. The doctors had mastered the cure for cowpox, and the March war was not an illusion.
“All doctors lead by example and are the first to be vaccinated against cowpox, and all family members of acne patients must be vaccinated against cowpox.
"In Luoyang City, any city that has not had an outbreak of plague within half a month can be unblocked. Other cities must be vaccinated against cowpox before they can be unblocked!"
"Within three months, all people in Luoyang will be vaccinated against cowpox!"
……………………
As Fan Zheng issued orders one after another, more than half of Luoyang City was officially unblocked!
The whole city of Luoyang cheered. Since the great epidemic in Luoyang, all the shadows that had been cast on the people were swept away.
"There is a way to prevent acne!"
The people in other cities also breathed a sigh of relief. With the cure for cowpox, they could be protected from the plague by just being vaccinated. With the cure, the people of Luoyang suppressed their restless emotions and Wait patiently for vaccination with cowpox.
Shao Sheng’s first year has just passed!
The large-scale vaccination of cowpox in Luoyang City officially started. The families of cowpox patients were vaccinated first, followed by the people in the cities with acne cases, and finally the cities without acne cases were vaccinated.
Outside Li Mansion!
Fan Zheng and Li Qingzhao met again, but this time, they no longer had the deep affection they had before.
Fan Zheng was also wearing a medical uniform and holding a sharp three-edged inoculation spike. She was coming to inoculate Li Qingzhao with cowpox in person. Li Qingzhao hid behind Lian'er with a fearful look on his face and pushed Lian'er to the front.
"Stretch out your arms!" Fan Zheng said solemnly.
Lian'er had no choice but to do it!
Fan Zheng picked up the triangular spike and skillfully pierced the skin, and skillfully pressed the cotton swab stained with the source of cowpox on the wound.
"hiss!"
Lian'er gasped in pain.
"It's your turn!" Fan Zheng stared at Li Qingzhao who was hiding behind.
"Can you not get vaccinated against cowpox?"
Li Qingzhao was most afraid of pain and flinched.
Fan Zheng shook his head and said: "Vaccination with cowpox can prevent you from having to fight against acne, but it cannot cure acne patients. I have taken the lead in getting vaccinated with cowpox, and there is no serious problem."
Say it! Fan Zheng showed the mark of his vaccination with cowpox.
"But vaccination with cowpox may leave scars?" Li Qingzhao looked at the obvious acne marks on Fan Zheng's arms and shook his head. As a woman, she naturally did not want to leave scars on her body, even on her arms.
"Don't worry, in the future, the cowpox method will be popularized all over the world, and everyone will have this vaccination mark." Fan Zheng consoled him.
"But..." Li Qingzhao said hesitantly.
However, no matter how Li Qingzhao begged, Fan Zheng remained unmoved.
In the end, Li Qingzhao stretched out his arm helplessly, with tears in his eyes and reluctantly asked Fan Zheng to inoculate him with cowpox.
Fan Zheng couldn't help but sigh when he saw this. He and Li Qingzhao were in love for life, but it was so difficult to vaccinate them with cowpox, let alone other women from wealthy families.
In addition, it is winter now, and the atmosphere in Luoyang is conservative. Women are allowed to expose their arms, and the skin is punctured to leave scars. I am afraid that it will be difficult to promote vaccination.
"The doctors immediately recruited a group of female doctors and nurses to vaccinate Luoyang women with cowpox. The Luoyang government also promoted the efficacy of vaccination in immunizing against acne and the harm of acne. If you don't get vaccinated, you will be responsible for the consequences." Fan Zheng ordered.
Doctors and the Luoyang Prefecture took action immediately. With the advancement of female doctors and the vigorous publicity of the Luoyang Prefecture, coupled with the threat of acne, the promotion of cowpox in the Luoyang Prefecture became increasingly smooth.
With the large-scale vaccination of cowpox, the effect was even more immediate. The number of new cases of acne decreased dramatically. After the first month passed, there was no more case of acne in the entire city of Luoyang.
"It's done!"
All the officials in Luoyang Mansion were immediately granted amnesty.
The great epidemic in Luoyang was a torment for the officials. As local officials, they could not leave Luoyang City, otherwise they would be punished as abandoning the city, and they would also face the risk of acne.
Fortunately, the doctors did not disappoint them. First, the quarantine method was used to control the plague, and then the method of cowpox was discovered. The end of the epidemic in March was not an illusion.
Luoyang's great cause of epidemic control was about to be successful, and Fan Zheng's prestige in Luoyang Mansion was also increasing day by day, and he was immediately ready to take advantage of the situation to promote the medical city method in Luoyang City.
"The lessons of the great epidemic in Luoyang must be kept in mind. The first and second parties of the medical city must be implemented at the same time. It is not too late to make amends." Fan Zheng said solemnly in Luoyang Mansion.
Han Wei couldn't help but smile bitterly and said: "What the Imperial Envoy said is true, but Luoyang Mansion has no money. I'm afraid it's hard for a clever woman to make a living without rice."
Other Luoyang Prefecture officials were also helpless. The doctors' methods to combat the epidemic were indeed effective, but the biggest drawback was that they were too expensive! Even with the support of Yizhuang and the imperial court, Luoyang Mansion's money and food have been exhausted long ago, and there is no money left to carry out the medical treatment of the city.
Fan Zheng looked around at the Luoyang officials and said slowly: "Fan has a party that can help Luoyang Mansion get out of financial crisis!"
The Luoyang official was overjoyed, and he quickly raised his hand to Fan Zheng and said, "Please make it clear, your Majesty the Imperial Envoy!"
"The slaves are here!"
Fan Zheng said word by word.
It has been nearly a year since the DPRK promoted the use of farm labor to enter the mu. However, Luoyang Prefecture is the stronghold of the old party and strongly opposes the use of farm labor to the mu.
Now that the city of Luoyang is in a political crisis, it is the best time to capture Luoyang without any bloodshed.
Suddenly, all Luoyang officials fell silent. Even Li Kefei, who had always been in favor of Fan Zheng, also remained silent. Apparently he also knew the great impact of this incident.
Fan Zheng was not surprised by this, and immediately said: "Now the service has been promoted to ten groups, and the response from each group has been good. If nothing unexpected happens, it will soon be promoted to the entire Song Dynasty. How long do you think Luoyang can evade!"
All Luoyang officials suddenly became agitated.
"Luoyang is the capital of the Song Dynasty. In the previous dynasty, its taxes and population were far better than Kaifeng. When the Song Dynasty was founded, it was even comparable to Kaifeng. What about now? The population continues to lose, and it is already less than one million. The tax difference is It's twice as much. If things go on like this, Luoyang will only decline more and more, and even become obsolete to other cities in the Song Dynasty." Fan Zheng said unceremoniously.
Han Wei suddenly twitched the corner of his mouth. He naturally said that what Fan Zheng said was true. If Luoyang had indeed been in decline since the founding of the Song Dynasty.
"Not to mention the current epidemic in Luoyang, which is a devastating disaster for the city of Luoyang. The city of Luoyang is now in trouble both internally and externally. If we continue to harm the court, I'm afraid..." Fan Zheng snorted coldly.
Li Kefei heard what Xian meant and said: "The imperial envoy saved Luoyang from fire and water, you can't just sit back and watch Luoyang do nothing!"
Fan Zheng cooperated: "The one who can really save Luoyang is not Fan, but all of you. As the saying goes, medicine can't cure diseases! If Luoyang takes the initiative to implement the labor sharing system, Fan will take the opportunity to apply for disaster relief from the court. It will take two years to restore the finances. If the court is corrupted and the traditional service and tax laws are used, it may not be possible to recover in ten years. By then, not only will Luoyang's vitality be seriously damaged, but even your salaries and official careers will be greatly affected. .”
"ten years!"
All Luoyang officials couldn't help but feel bitter. Now that Luoyang's treasury is empty, they still need to urgently implement the method of medical treatment for the city. This is the time when Luoyang is at its weakest.
Although Fan Zheng's move meant to take advantage of the situation, it revealed an indisputable fact. If Luoyang insists on resisting the new law of the court, I am afraid that only the city of Luoyang will be damaged in the end.
Taking the most practical issue as an example, Luoyang City has no money and food, so the welfare of their officials will be greatly reduced. If they respond to the new law in the court, coupled with the great success of quelling the epidemic in March, their official career will be smooth. Otherwise, they will perish together with Luoyang.
"We will obey the imperial envoy's order!" All Luoyang officials bowed their heads and said.
Obviously they didn't want to risk the infamy of offending the Luoyang gentry and were ready to shift all the blame to Fan Zheng, who was now in control of Luoyang.
"Since your lords have no objections, I will now take the initiative to submit a letter to request Luoyang Mansion to implement the policy of sharing the labor into the land." Fan Zheng did not care about this.
The plague in Luoyang can be put down in a month at most. By then he will leave Luoyang, so he will naturally not be afraid of offending the Luoyang gentry.
"However, please don't think about taking advantage of the situation. There are too many alternate officials in the Song Dynasty waiting to be replaced immediately. Fan does not want you to put yourself in danger." Fan Zheng warned.
"I'll understand later!"
All Luoyang officials looked at Fan Zheng with confusion. Fan Zheng controlled the power of Luoyang and took the initiative to ask for the March levy. Although the effect was significant, it depleted Luoyang's finances in a short period of time and forced Luoyang, the stronghold of conservatives, to take the initiative to write a letter to implement the levy-sharing system. .
By the way, it seems that it was Fan Zheng's idea to share the labor service with his parents.
Without Fan Zheng's plan for this evil recipe, even if they were beaten to death, they wouldn't believe it.
Unfortunately, since the plague broke out in Luoyang, they had no choice but to follow Fan Zheng all the way to the dark side.
However, although Fan Zheng's prescription was evil, it cured the disease. With the large-scale vaccination of cowpox in Luoyang City, acne completely disappeared in Luoyang City.
As the last acne patient recovered, the Luoyang epidemic was completely extinguished. It took about three months from the outbreak to the end.
Fan Zheng's heroic words of quelling the epidemic in March have officially come true.
