When disaster strikes, people are often caught off guard.
On this day, everything seemed ordinary.
But it was because of one phone call that caused a huge sensation.
A phone call came from inside the tenement building.
Ji Ruxue quickly reported to Li Min.
"Mr. Zili, something bad is happening. Something happened at the hospital! Something serious happened!"
Li Min was shocked.
Put down the pen in his hand and asked:
"What's going on? What happened? Tell me!"
"There's a call from the dean, please listen!"
So, Li Min picked up the phone on the desk and listened.
"I'm Zili! Say it!"
Li Ke's voice came over there, and he was breathing rapidly.
The voice seemed a little tired again.
"Sixth brother, it's bad, something big happened here in the hospital! A large number of patients were sent to the hospital! They are in serious condition!"
When Li Min heard this, he felt something was wrong.
A large number of seriously ill patients appear!
This is the prelude to an acute infectious disease.
Generally speaking, this will not happen.
However, when this happens, it is often very serious.
"Tell me, what's going on? Try to be as concise as possible!"
"People who came to the hospital suddenly had diarrhea, followed by vomiting. Some people had muscle spasms or twitches, and their limbs were cold... There were also several deaths! The disease is spreading! The situation is urgent! Help! Help!"
Based on Li Ke's description, Li Min realized that this might be cholera.
Cholera is an acute diarrheal infectious disease caused by ingested food or water contaminated by Vibrio cholerae. It can cause diarrhea, dehydration and even death within a few hours after the onset of the disease.
Vibrio cholerae exists in water, and the most common cause of infection is the consumption of water contaminated by patient feces. Vibrio cholerae can produce cholera toxin, causing secretory diarrhea. Diarrhea will continue even if you no longer eat. Rice-washed stool is
Characteristics of cholera.
Other ways of infection can be through other excreta, and large gatherings of people can also cause infection!
This is an acute infectious disease crisis.
If it is not handled well, more people will be lost.
"Stay still first, I'll ask Master Sun to lead the team to the hospital for support!"
he said.
"Hurry up. I won't say anything else. Another person died. Hurry up!"
Li Min put down the phone.
Ji Ruxue was shocked. At this moment, she felt a fear she had never felt before.
The fear this time was even more terrifying than the smallpox last time.
After all, the onset of smallpox does not occur so quickly.
In this way, it is time to test the first hospital.
It also tests Shengtang Group’s response capabilities.
Even the court's view on this matter.
Suddenly, the phone rang again.
"I am Zili!"
"Mr. Zili, it's not good. A large number of railway construction workers suffered from diarrhea. A large number of people were sent to the hospital. Some people died on the way!"
"What!"
This is undoubtedly a bolt from the blue.
He didn't know how to put down the phone, but more and more calls came in.
A large number of cases were discovered.
More and more people are dying.
Cholera broke out in the entire city of Chang'an!
What should we do now?
Ji Ruxue looked at Li Min without blinking for a long time.
"Let Master Sun come up! Wait, let the dean come over too. Hurry, we need to set up a combat department!"
"yes!"
Then, next, he will counterattack.
With the control of smallpox last time.
This time, he will definitely be able to defeat cholera.
Ji Ruxue immediately went to make arrangements.
…
At this time, in the Daming Palace.
Many palace maids and eunuchs were bedridden.
Li Shimin was furious.
A eunuch came forward to report.
"Your Majesty, three-tenths of the people in the palace are sick in bed and cannot get up. We are short of manpower and many things cannot be carried out normally."
The infection rate of 30% is also very high.
Li Shimin said unhappily:
"When has this happened? Why are you all sick? Ah? What are you doing!"
But who wants to be sick?
If you can do something, why lie on the bed? If you provoke the wrath of the saint, you may be killed directly.
"Let the doctor come up!"
Li Shimin said again.
At this time, a dozen old men arrived on the top floor of Daming Palace.
They dared not look into Li Shimin's eyes.
"Doctor, what's going on? Why are so many people in the palace sick? What diseases do they have?"
The old men were a little panicked.
"Your Majesty, it's cholera!"
"Huh? What's going on?"
"The Huangdi Neijing mentions that the qi in the body is divided into yin and yang, with clear qi in yin and turbid qi in yang." When the clear and turbid qi in the body invade each other, the balance of the gastrointestinal tract will be affected, and ultimately
Forming cholera. This disease occurs quickly, and in severe cases, it may be life-threatening! Moreover, this disease is contagious, and anyone who is with the patient may be infected!"
As soon as the old men finished speaking.
Li Shimin was shocked.
"What! There is such a thing!"
This is probably the most terrifying crisis since he became emperor.
So many people in the palace are sick.
Add the sentence after them.
Everyone has become in danger.
No one wants to die.
Of course, what these imperial doctors said was only one-sided.
They also said: "These people are filthy people and I suggest they be burned!"
This may be the best way to deal with infectious diseases.
Is there anything that can't be solved with a fire?
But those innocent people don't want to die either.
No one wants to be burned by a fire.
This is inhuman behavior.
Li Shimin hesitated.
He doesn't want to do this.
This was never done during the last smallpox outbreak.
Those who can survive are not living well, and those who cannot survive are burned.
While he was thinking.
At this time, Cheng Yaojin and Dai Zhou came in.
Dai Zhou said:
"Your Majesty, there are a large number of patients suffering from the same disease among the people, and they have been sent to the hospital."
Cheng Yaojin also said: "This disease is so severe that everyone in Chang'an is in danger now!"
Even smallpox has never happened like this.
This epidemic is the most terrifying one.
At this time, Li Shimin thought of Li Min.
He asked: "That kid... no! What will Shengtang Group do?"
At this time, he could only place his hope on Shengtang Group.
I'm afraid only they can overcome this crisis.
It was like this last time too.
Because Shengtang Group represents advanced technological productivity.
Their medicine is also the best in the Tang Dynasty, and new medicines are produced every day.
"At this time, the Sixth Prince summoned all the doctors and some representatives of the people to hold a meeting in the tenement building to discuss the next steps."
"Pay close attention to their next move. If they make the next move, the court will immediately follow them!"
Li Shimin was a wise king, and he would not directly kill a sick person.
Therefore, he wanted to wait for Li Min's method to come out and then launch it in the court.
Next, let’s see if it’s medicine or something else.
