On the fifth day, nothing unusual happened to the six of them, and Man Bao felt relieved, but they were still not allowed to go out and were still kept in the house.
However, the six of them were not lonely either. They got in touch with their colleagues in the yard next door, and it was quite lively to talk and shout to each other across the wall.
Manbao did not stop them from chatting across the courtyard wall, and the virus would not spread through sound.
She kept the people locked up for ten days, and none of them had acne again. Then she declared the experiment a success. Man Bao carefully noted down their pulse conditions before letting them go out.
Bai Shan gave them the cloth he had prepared early in the morning and said, "This is what I promised you early in the morning."
The eyes of the six people were bright and they wanted to stick to the cloth.
The six people hugged the cloth and asked, "Sir, are we going back to the military camp?"
Man Bao nodded, "Your body is fine and you will be immune to smallpox in the future."
She paused and then said: "You should also take good care of your health when you go back. I will bring you some medicine bars."
Those medicinal wines were somewhat useful for their old injuries, but they were not very useful. However, the six of them were still overjoyed. They had used them and found them very useful.
For them, any useful medicine is useful, no matter how useful it is.
After sending them away, Manbao divided the eighteen people into various courtyards and prepared to start vaccination with cowpox.
Of the eighteen people, only three took the medicine in the end. The remaining fifteen, like the previous six, all had low-grade fevers and survived on their own.
Manbao summarized these data and said to Bai Shan: "It can be seen that cowpox is much less toxic than variola. When we vaccinate against variola in Beijing, basically every patient needs medication, and 60% of the patients will have high fever.
, half of these 60% will be in danger, and finally..."
Man Bao paused and continued: "Unfortunately, the current basic data is not enough. Whether large-scale vaccination can be done requires more data, and the sequelae will also have to be looked at."
Bai Shan: "Will there be any sequelae?"
Man Bao shook his head and said: "Theoretically not, but in reality who knows? So we have to wait, time will tell us."
Bai Shan lowered his eyes and thought, and asked, "Then should we take these people back for testing?"
Man Bao said: "Didn't we write down their household registration? Even if we don't take them with us, we can still check them later."
Bai Shan smiled and said, "Then take them back. When they arrive in the capital, let them go back to their hometowns. It will take at least half a year. You can observe them carefully."
Man Bao looked at him in surprise.
Bai Shan winked at her and said, "These people are considered patients of your hospital. Your hospital should pay them travel expenses, right?"
Manbao began to think, "There is a war in Anxi, and the Ministry of Revenue has a lot of expenditures. It may not be easy to report the accounts to the Ministry of Revenue, but half of the expenses of the Imperial Hospital come from His Majesty's internal treasury..."
More than 20 people went back with them again. The cost should not be very large, and His Majesty should be able to afford it...right?
Man Bao, who still wanted to continue the experiment, hesitated for a moment and asked, "Then we still need to experiment?"
If there are two more batches, it will be difficult to carry.
Bai Shan thought for a while and then said: "Since the success rate of cowpox is so high, then I will choose eighteen more people?"
It would be good to bring more people back. Many of the soldiers in the Anxi Army were transferred from the Zhenbei Army in Fengzhou, Xiazhou. The older ones have been guarding the border for twenty years and have not returned to their hometowns.
Now in his thirties and forties, he has white hair. Although he is about the same age as Daji, he looks like he is a generation older.
Man Bao nodded, "Okay, this batch will not be released until eight days, so let's first select eighteen people to take care of themselves."
Bai Shan went to the military camp to select people, and told the people in the Duhufu that they would take away the experimental soldiers when they left.
The people in the Protectorate were stunned, "Take them away?"
Bai Shan smiled and nodded, "They are the first batch of people to be vaccinated with cowpox. Your Majesty and the Tai Hospital must see real people. Otherwise, if we present our notes, you will still think that we are making nonsense, so we have to bring them with us."
Walk."
He mentioned by the way, "I wonder how their settlement expenses have been prepared. Veterans also have travel expenses when they return home, right? We might as well prepare them for them, and then we can leave as we please."
The people in the Protectorate's Mansion calculated a sum of money and got a headache. Although the money was not very large, after all, there were only twenty-four people at present. If they chose eighteen more, there would only be forty-two people. But every person in the Protectorate's Mansion had a headache.
All the money has gone somewhere, where can we squeeze out the money for them at this moment?
Bai Shan didn't care about them. This was a headache for them. He went directly to the army to select people.
The military camp dedicated to housing the old, weak, sick and disabled was very lively, and people crowded in front of Bai Shan to recommend themselves.
The first group of six people came back and learned that they had really obtained the cloth, and that the vaccination seemed not as dangerous as they thought, so many people were willing to do it.
There are not many of these people. After all, the soldiers who were injured on the battlefield are either dead or can continue to fight on the battlefield. Only those who have missing arms and legs, or who are physically unable to go to the front line will be left in this camp.
Some logistical stuff.
So there are not many people for Bai Shan to choose from.
As soon as he heard that he was going to choose eighteen, the general in charge of the battalion put his hand on Bai Shan's shoulders and said as if: "Mr. Bai, look at the remaining people, no more, no less, exactly twenty-two."
, you see you have already chosen eighteen, why not take the remaining four with you, otherwise it would be boring to leave four of them in one camp?"
Bai Shan: "...This is vaccination. If the body is really not suitable, it will kill someone."
"Hey, these people are all destined to die. They die in the military camp, they die on the battlefield, and they die under smallpox. Don't worry, they are not afraid of death."
"Yes, yes, Mr. Bai, we are not afraid of death."
"Mr. Bai, please take us all in. Don't worry, we don't have as much food as them, and we don't need any cloth."
"That's right, the main thing is that the Governor's Office will give us our settling-in expenses and travel expenses."
Obviously, they all heard about Bai Shan and the Protectorate's request for family and travel expenses.
Bai Shan: ...This is about the front and back legs. Is the Protectorate's Mansion made of a sieve?
Bai Shan frowned.
The general pulled him aside, flicked his sleeves, and stuffed a money bag into Bai Shan's hand. His eyes widened instantly.
Bai Shan was shocked when he was bribed for the first time in his life.
Xiang Jiang forcefully pushed the money bag into Bai Shan's hand and whispered: "Mr. Bai, just do a good job and take the people away. You and Mr. Zhou can plant whatever you want on them. They will be fine if they live. If they die, they will die."
Don't be afraid, just turn the people into ashes and send them to their respective homes, which will be their settlement and travel expenses..."
The smile on Bai Shan's face had fallen, and General Pian lowered his voice and said: "When the time comes, I will trouble Mr. Bai to take the money back and send it to each house with the ashes, but don't worry, everyone has discussed it and won't let it go."
You are working in vain, how about you take half of the settlement fee?"
Bai Shan:...Does he look like someone who is short of money?
