Three medical staff arrived at the door, and the patient's family also realized something was wrong.
It is obvious that the door is closed from the inside. Outsiders cannot come in and those inside cannot get out. What is this to prevent?
He left the patient and stood aside to listen to their conversation. He was somewhat annoyed to find that he had been living in a village and was not very fluent in the official language.
But as an excellent hunter, he naturally felt the danger involved. He even had the idea of escaping quickly because his intuition felt that something was wrong, as if he was going to be trapped here.
"Captain, there is nothing to say at this time. Just follow the regulations. The patient and his family members must find a place to isolate." Ling Xiao reminded.
The captain nodded and said: "We have decided to activate the isolation zone. All three of you must go there, and you must pay attention to protection even if you have been vaccinated."
Having said this, captain Yang felt very heavy. Having been vaccinated does not mean that he is 100% immune.
Who knows if there will be new variants? If there are mutated viruses, it means there is no fight.
Therefore, he is not qualified to release Ling Xiao and must be isolated as soon as possible.
To avoid becoming infected and causing new sources of infection.
Of course, the captain did not inform Ling Xiao and the others about this.
If you say it out loud, it will only increase the tension and increase the pressure on the three people.
But when he saw Ling Xiao's calm eyes, he realized that she might have known about it a long time ago.
Ling Xiao held up the medical record written by Dr. Mengbei just now, "Captain, this is written by Dr. Mengbei."
It contains the location of the village and the places you passed along the way. You need to disinfect those that need to be disinfected as soon as possible.
This is to ensure the safety of the public to the greatest extent, because the Ebola virus is sensitive to many chemicals and is relatively easy to disinfect.
The captain naturally understood when he saw it, because once the epidemic occurred, it would be a disaster, and the high fatality rate made everyone prepare for it.
Just like this time, this patient met someone who traveled to Africa and returned home after being infected with a deadly virus without knowing it.
Then it is very likely that the epidemic will spread to all parts of the world, and another snowball-type outbreak will occur. This is a terrible prospect. When thinking of this result, it is natural to strangle this epidemic at the source.
The captain naturally understood very well. He took out his mobile phone and photographed the case through the glass. At this moment, he was very calm. He had to take action as soon as possible. This was his responsibility.
Sister Xie also heard about the problem and ran over to see Ling Xiao, only to find that she was very calm. She nodded secretly, doctors are more responsible.
After the captain took pictures of the medical records, Ling Xiao said: "Captain, please contact DSD as soon as possible. If they need testing, I will draw another tube of blood."
For patients detected by test strips, it is necessary to confirm again. If there is a mistake, it can be corrected. This is the job of every doctor.
In addition, the original strain of the virus also needs to be studied to determine which subspecies the virus belongs to. A blood sample of at least 4cl is required.
The captain glanced at Ling Xiao, then at the others, and wanted to say something, but finally said: "You should take more care."
Ling Xiao should have smiled slightly after hearing this, his eyes curled up behind his goggles, "Thank you."
Seeing this scene through the glass, Sister Xie suddenly wanted to cry.
When Ling Xiao saw it, he stretched out his hand and put it on the glass.
Sister Xie also put her hand up after seeing it.
The two hands were separated by the glass, and the eyes were bent again.
"It's okay, we will all live well," she said.
After saying that, Ling Xiao walked back quickly, because she still had a lot of things to do.
Especially the family member of the patient who has been watching, he is watching eagerly at this moment.
It gave Ling Xiao a sense of danger, so she had to explain clearly to the family what the disease was.
In order to prevent this person from suddenly getting angry, you must know that some people will start to take revenge on society when they know that they are not good.
That family member should be a leader in personal force in the cold weapon era. Ordinary people could not deal with him, so Ling Xiao would make it clear to him.
"Doctor Yang." The person who came was Pavolo, the director of the hospital. He didn't care that he was eating, so he ran here, sweating profusely. He also received the notification of the emergence of the Ebola virus.
Very anxious.
There was an epidemic in neighboring countries a few years ago, which caused the already weak public health to collapse. After the epidemic, there were few medical workers alive. As a result, this time it is our turn, and the public health has not yet strengthened and is facing collapse.
Why doesn't this make him anxious?
"Dean Pavolo, you came at the right time. There are some things that I need you to inform the superiors and contact some organizations. I also need to find someone to see if there is anything that needs attention." The captain decided to ask for help from the motherland at this moment.
While the team leader pays attention to the doctor's responsibilities, he must also ensure the safety of the medical team's medical staff to the greatest extent. They must come together and return without any loss.
"Xiao Chen, go contact dsd and say that there is an Ebola epidemic and you want to send samples." The captain took action.
News of the re-emergence of the Ebola virus quickly reached the ears of relevant departments, and everyone took action.
The captain received a call from China, asking him to pay attention to his safety, and also summarized the directions to pay attention to.
There will also be planes dispatched from China to provide emergency assistance with a batch of medicines and medical supplies.
In addition, it is about how to treat patients.
under strong influence.
I received a notification from dsd soon.
Let them send the patient's blood as soon as possible.
Only after DSD testing can it be officially determined.
At this moment, Ling Xiao had no idea that the discovery of the virus was causing turmoil outside.
She had just made it clear to the patient's family, and he didn't know much about the Ebola virus.
After listening to Ling Xiao's words, he went numb. He sat there and thought. The reason why he didn't attack immediately was because he felt that Ling Xiao was not easy to deal with.
This is due to his beast-like intuition and he does not dare to offend the doctor who does not look very strong.
At this moment, he came back to his senses and found the doctors gathered around looking at the patients.
I don't know when they started wearing rubber gloves.
In addition to the isolation gown, I also wore special goggles.
"Is his illness really that serious?"
The people who came with the patient still didn't believe it.
But at this moment, he began to believe Ling Xiao's words because of the doctor's dress.
As a doctor, it's okay to wear gloves and a mask when seeing a doctor, but it's not right to wear glasses.
"Yes, this is a highly contagious and very lethal virus. It is a level four virus." Ling Xiao said.
The young man's eyes widened after hearing this. How could this happen? He looked at his brother and saw that the patient was stunned and his eyes were dull.
"I used test strips to prove that it was Ebola virus, but in order to prevent possible errors, I still had to draw blood and send it to DSD for a check." Ling Xiao said.
The patient's family members were confused. He still knew a little bit about the Ebola virus because his village was very remote, but after experiencing the Ebola virus once, they still knew a little bit about it.
In fact, when the Ebola virus was out of control, in order to prevent this devilish and terrifying disease from spreading, someone once specifically massacred all the people in the affected area, and set fire to the village as a precaution.
This gave rise to the notorious reputation of the Ebola virus. He had heard of this virus, but not too much, because the place where the epidemic occurred was not near their village.
But today the doctor actually told him: Ebola virus has come to him, and his brother is such a patient, and he may be infected.
No! This is impossible! This must be a mistake. He is a little frightened. As long as the death rate is extremely high, the minimum is 50%.
His expression gradually became dull. He didn't want to admit this possibility, and he remembered that many people in the village were indeed sick.
At this moment, Ling Xiao tapped the table with his pen, causing some people who had begun to realize something was wrong to finally turn their attention.
"Are the dead villagers in your village still buried according to customs?"
Ling Xiao looked at the patient's family members who were not looking well when he asked.
At the funeral of the deceased in some African places.
Those who come to the wedding are expected to kiss the body of the deceased.
This is also the reason why the virus spreads wildly in some villages.
You must know that Ebola virus is mainly transmitted through body fluids, and the dead are covered with viruses.
When you kiss the skin of the deceased, the body fluids of the deceased carry the virus, which can invade new hosts, and Ebola spreads.
Ling Xiao knocked on the table, causing the patient's family members to wake up suddenly. After believing what Ling Xiao said, he jumped up. After thinking of those horrific scenes, he wanted to retreat, escape, and vent.
.
Ling Xiao took a quick look and saw that when humans faced the terrifying epidemic, many people were unwilling to give up and did not think about dying.
There was once a suspected patient who ran away after knowing that he might be infected.
This person was also scared, with hesitation and fear on his face.
I still have some regrets, probably for sending the patient here.
I have been taking care of patients along the way.
It must be too late for him now.
Ling Xiao said: "Don't retreat."
"The person who was very close to him during this period was you."
"If you are not easily infected, you have already been infected."
After hearing this, the man was very angry because he was afraid.
At this moment, he wanted to fight and kill him. Why did he encounter the Ebola virus?
If he is sick, he would like to go to a big city and let everyone dance with him.
At this time, Ling Xiao said: "Actually, just because you don't send him here, it doesn't mean that the virus will not infect you. And if the patient gets sick, it is always more convenient in the hospital than at home, right?"
As soon as these words came out, the person who was thinking about exploding on the spot was stunned, because Ling Xiao's words were indeed very reasonable. Although sending patients might cause him to contract the disease, it would definitely happen if he was in the village.
Isn't it contagious?
Not necessarily! In fact, there should be more in the village. When he set out, there were already several illnesses. If they were found in the hospital, they could be treated early, which might increase the chance of survival.
Seeing that the family member of the patient who wanted to go berserk suddenly calmed down, Meng Bei and Mi Lu breathed a sigh of relief.
Ling Xiao said slowly: "You stay away from him for the time being. The patient is in the middle to late stage."
After hearing this, he took a few steps back, feeling that his thighs were weak and he squatted on the side a little weakly.
Ling Xiao secretly sighed softly, luckily suppressing the other party's outburst.
How many people will not be afraid at all when death comes?
Afraid! This is a possible normal reaction for everyone.
She just saw the man's mentality.
That gave me some comfort.
She was afraid that this broken jar would break.
Go to a big city to spread the epidemic.
If you act to retaliate against society, the situation will be more serious.
Some AIDS patients not only go out to have sex, but also want to infect more people.
There are always people who think: I won't survive, so I won't suffer any loss if I have to take care of myself a few times.
Regarding the infection of AIDS, at least pay attention to keeping yourself clean and pay attention to blocking the transmission channels, and you will be fine.
But the Ebola virus is different. It has reached the point where droplets can spread. Who can guarantee that it will not evolve to the stage of airborne spread?
At that time, even being clean and tidy could not save mankind. It could only depend on the body's immunity.
After all, the Ebola virus is highly lethal, but the fatality rate is not 100%, and some people still survive.
In fact, patients infected with Ebola virus have to survive a dangerous period of twelve days.
Then this person will enter the recovery period of the condition and gradually improve.
Finally escaped the control of the disease and lived again.
It's a pity that many people don't survive the twelve days.
All body functions are necrotic.
Internal bleeding, myocardial infarction and other deaths.
Ling Xiao would not say anything about this.
"Not everyone can be infected with Ebola virus."
"Maybe you will be lucky enough to be fine," Ling Xiao said.
Seeing that the man was very sad, he comforted the patient's family.
In fact, the three medical staff and the patient's family should be quarantined.
You will know if you are infected after 21 days. If nothing happens, you will be released after 21 days.
At this time, Ling Xiao received a notice that DSD notified the hospital to send the patient's body fluid sample.
After Ling Xiao learned the news, he drew blood for the patient again, and Mi Lu helped him do it.
After receiving the notification, the hospital specially prepared a container - a special biosafety box.
Because level 4 viruses require special attention during transportation.
Otherwise, one bad thing will create a new source of pollution.
This is something that must be paid attention to.
This virus really is.
Too dangerous.
The two of them extracted enough blood as quickly as possible.
While drawing blood, Ling Xiao recited the preservation conditions of this virus.
The first is that Ebola virus can remain active under normal temperature conditions.
In other words, the virus can still remain active in blood samples and dead bodies for several weeks.
Even at 56°C, it cannot be completely inactivated. At 60°C, it takes 30 minutes to completely make the virus lose its infectivity.
It can be seen that the resistance of this virus is still very strong. Of course, higher temperatures will kill the virus faster.
It would be great if the human body could withstand a high temperature of 60°C. This terrible disease can be completely cured by maintaining it for thirty minutes.
It is a pity that the human body cannot withstand this kind of temperature. If the temperature exceeds 40 degrees for a long time, it will make people stupid. After thinking about it for a while, you will know that this method is impossible.
Ebola virus can be killed by ultraviolet light, which can be killed in 2 minutes. Unfortunately, ultraviolet light cannot directly reach the inside of the human body.
In addition, this virus is very sensitive to chemicals, and can be inactivated by ether, formalin, etc.
However, these chemicals are only suitable for external use, not internal administration, and are of little help in treating Ebola.
In addition to these three methods, including Y-rays and cobalt-60 radiation, viruses can also be killed.
