Xu Yue breathed a sigh of relief when she saw that Gongsun Hao and Doctor Li believed in the existence of the epidemic.
He raised his hand to wipe the hot sweat from his forehead, threw all the samples into the chamber pot, and let the stone pour all the feces into the furnace to be burned and destroyed.
High temperature can achieve 99% germ killing effect.
The patient's excrement still has an infectious effect and must be disinfected to reduce infection.
Shitou is already panicking. The word plague is an extremely terrifying existence for both ancient people and people with modern technology, and must be treated with caution.
Seeing that Xu Yue and his son were so calm in the face of the epidemic, Gongsun Hao also took off the airs he had put up before and anxiously asked about the cure.
"Boss Gongsun, will you fully cooperate with us?" Xu Yue looked at the scarred face on the couch and asked seriously.
Gongsun Hao was slightly stunned.
Xu Yue continued to ask: "Can you guarantee that you will respect every life on this ship?"
Each one means that every passenger on this ship, whether they are civilians or gentry from aristocratic families, must be treated equally in the face of the epidemic.
Seeing Gongsun Hao's delay in answering, Xu Yue added: "Now as long as we take active prevention, do a good job in isolation and hygiene, and prescribe the right medicine, we can contain the virus."
"But as long as there is one person who has not been cured and brings the virus to land, you must know the consequences, Boss Gongsun."
Gongsun Hao pondered for a long time and suddenly asked: "If I want to throw those sick civilians into the sea, what will you do?"
"Are you threatening me again?" Xu Yue opened her clear eyes and looked directly into Gongsun Hao's eyes without fear, "It didn't work last time, and it won't work this time."
"Ha~" Gongsun Hao smiled hoarsely, glanced at Xu Dalang's ready-to-move fist, and Xu Dafeng's light smile, raised his eyes and gave orders to Shitou and Doctor Li:
"The ship will be suspended for three days, and all matters related to the epidemic will be done in accordance with Xu Yue's instructions."
Shitou cupped his hands and responded: "I obey my orders!"
Xu Yue smiled, her smile blocked by her mask, but Gongsun Hao saw joy in her exposed eyes.
Rejoice for all the civilians on board who will be saved.
"You go ahead and go, I'm going to bed." Gongsun Hao waved his hands tiredly, not wanting to worry anymore.
However, everyone did not retreat immediately. Instead, under Xu Yue's guidance, they first smoked his clothes, room, and everyone who had come into contact with him with mugwort before exiting.
Afterwards, everyone gathered in another small room and held a two-hour preventive combat preparation meeting.
At the meeting, Xu Yue proposed to form a special anti-epidemic team. Shitou nodded and immediately found twenty guards for Xu Yue to put at her disposal.
With manpower, Xu Yue still needs supplies.
After learning that the boxes of wooden boxes tightly wrapped with oilcloth on the ship were all private salt bought from Yijing and prepared to be sold by Yuyang, Xu Yue sighed at Gongsun Hao's power and took twenty boxes.
Get out the private salt and use it to make disinfectant.
High-concentration salt water has a certain disinfection effect. In ancient times when there was no alcohol disinfection, the ancients had long used sulfur, fumigation, boiling water, salt and other methods for disinfection.
And to a certain extent, it can effectively combat the outbreak of plague and play a containment role.
In the royal family, there is also a secret formula of disinfectant pills that can resist the plague.
The disinfection plan is finalized, and the next step is isolation.
Xu Yue urgently educated the twenty people under him on the basics of isolation.
Thinking of the horror of the plague, coupled with the previous beating of stones, the twenty people seriously memorized the ten principles of isolation mentioned by Xu Yue.
When daylight came up, everyone who had been busy all night did not take any rest and immediately started taking action.
The first step is to do a good job of notification and publicity to reduce mass panic and guide the masses to cooperate.
The quarantine staff wearing coats, masks, and cloth gloves had a serious and rigorous work attitude, truthfully informed the ship of the disease, and popularized the science of what the virus really is, so as to reassure passengers not to panic and to actively fight against the epidemic.
Everyone wins together.
In the second step, after screening, patients with severe symptoms, patients with mild symptoms, adults, and children will be placed in separate rooms prepared in advance for isolation.
After seeing a series of prevention plans made by Xu Yue, Doctor Li didn't want to sleep anymore. He drank a bowl of salt and sugar water plus symptomatic medicine given by Xu Yue, which was like taking chicken blood, and led his two medicine boys.
Prepare medicine and actively participate in rescue work.
The prescription is actually very simple, and Dr. Li himself has it. Treat headaches as headaches, diarrhea as diarrhea, and antivomiting as appropriate.
The third step is to do a good job in hygiene promotion, wash hands frequently, drink boiled water, not eat raw or cold food, consciously isolate yourself from the crowd, and actively report the disease.
In the face of such a huge difference in status, the ship owner's orders were still very useful. The civilians did not dare to offend, so they had no choice but to obey them.
And those distinguished guests, for the sake of the host, will try their best to cooperate.
The fourth step, and the most important step, is to do a good job in logistics support.
High-concentration disinfectant water is sprayed regularly and at fixed points throughout the day, without missing any corner.
Epidemic prevention workers' gowns, cloth masks, and cloth gloves must be fumigated before entering or exiting the hospital before they can come into contact with patients.
Changed gowns and other items must be cooked in boiling water at high temperature for more than one hour before they can be put on again.
Xu Yue was afraid that everyone would not be able to remember these contents, so she wrote the guidelines and hygiene reminders for each work on a wooden board and hung them up for literate people to read to ensure that everyone would keep the guidelines in mind.
Every job has principles that can be learned and seen. Such an intuitive form of publicity shocked Dr. Li and made him even more excited at the same time.
The focus of fighting the plague is not to research specific drugs, but to prevent it, to contain the plague in the cradle so that it cannot break out.
Xu Yue's nearly complete prevention system made Dr. Li feel like a treasure. He stayed up for several days and was still energetically copying every detail of the ship's fight against the epidemic.
He planned to compile it into a book for future generations to follow.
With everyone's active cooperation, it only took three days for the prevention system to be successfully formed.
The passengers on the ship were panicked at the beginning, but now they are coping with it with ease.
The collective diarrhea situation has been significantly improved, the virus has been effectively contained, and no new patients have appeared.
In the eyes of many passengers who were not sick, the thunderous operation on the ship left a deep impression on them. From then on, the slogan "wash hands frequently, drink hot water, and be hygienic" can no longer be removed from their minds.
Gongsun Hao saw all these changes in his eyes, as if he saw a fresh and powerful life rising quietly.
That may be the future of Daqing...
The team of 20 people following Xu Yue has grown into a qualified professional epidemic prevention team after many days of field testing.
At Xu Yue's suggestion, Gongsun Hao agreed to reorganize the twenty people and allow the team to undergo more in-depth training.
