Xu Rui sent a special car to pick him up, so the doctor arrived quickly. Since the person seeking medical treatment was the political commissar and director of the staff department of the Songhu Independent Regiment, the director of Zhongshan Hospital came over in person. He was an experienced doctor.
, after consultation with Wang Husheng and Du Junjie, the final diagnosis result was quickly obtained.
The old dean called Xu Rui to an unoccupied corner and said: "Captain Xu, Political Commissar Wang and Director Du are suffering from typical typhoid fever. Moreover, this is not a primary typhoid fever disease, but an imported typhoid fever disease."
Typhoid fever.”
"Imported typhoid fever?" Xu Rui was shocked when he heard this and said, "In other words, they were infected by humans?"
"It should be." The old dean nodded and said, "I suggest that the patients be isolated as soon as possible, and the tableware, bedding, firearms and other items used by them should be disinfected to control the spread of germs as much as possible.
, otherwise, once the germs are allowed to get out of control, the consequences will be disastrous."
Xu Rui's mood became increasingly heavy and he asked: "How serious would it be if the germs got out of control?"
"Well." The old dean shook his head and said in a deep voice, "There is nothing I can say."
Xu Rui said: "Dean, just tell me, what is the most serious consequence?"
The old dean pondered for a moment and said in a deep voice: "In the most extreme case, for example, if the medicines are exhausted, the weather continues to be hot, and the epidemic cannot be effectively isolated, then the more than 4 million people in Shanghai will eventually be
We are lucky to have 40,000 people alive."
The reason why 40,000 people can survive is because there is a one percent chance of self-healing.
After a pause, the old dean said in a more serious tone: "Captain Xu, this is by no means an old-fashioned alarmist. Typhoid fever is actually not fatal. Not only does traditional Chinese medicine have many ways to treat it, but there are also several Western medicines on the market that can effectively treat it.
, but the scary thing about this disease is that it can easily break out on a large scale. Once a concentrated outbreak occurs, it will be difficult to isolate the epidemic, and then it will enter a vicious cycle. In the end, it will face hundreds of thousands or even millions of people.
For critically ill patients, no matter how many treatments and medicines are used, it will be in vain, Captain Xu, do you understand what I mean?"
"I understand!" Xu Rui nodded heavily. As a time traveler, he understands the horror of epidemic diseases better than anyone in this era. In the 21st century with antibiotics, there are still many large-scale diseases that cannot be effectively suppressed.
Epidemics, such as bird flu and SARS, need not be mentioned in this era.
Once a large-scale epidemic occurs in this era, it will be a disaster!
Even the most common form of influenza can be enough to cause an unprecedented and disastrous disaster!
At that moment, Xu Rui asked again: "Dean, apart from what you just said, is there anything else I need to do?"
The old dean thought for a while and then said: "If possible, try to collect as much garlic and ginger as possible. These two things can effectively inhibit typhoid fever bacteria. There are also several kinds of typhoid fever treatments sold in major pharmacies in the concession.
I also try to buy as many medicines as possible. When it comes to curative effect, Western medicine works quickly."
"Understood!" Xu Rui nodded, turned around and walked out.
However, when he reached the door, he stopped again and turned around to tell the old dean: "Dean, we have to ask you to keep the news that our political commissar and Director Du have contracted typhoid fever confidential. You also know that once a panic effect occurs, even if it eventually
The typhoid epidemic has been controlled by us, but it is very likely to lead to an irreversible tragedy."
"I understand." The old dean nodded and said, "I will keep it confidential."
Xu Rui then asked Digua to drive the old director and his party back to the hospital, and then asked the Communications Department to notify the battalion commanders of each battalion one by one to come to the regiment headquarters for a meeting.
Then Xu Rui came to the ward again.
By this time, Wang Husheng and Du Junjie had been quarantined.
Seeing that Xu Rui was about to rush in, the doctor who stayed behind to take care of him quickly stopped him: "Captain Xu, you can't go in. If you have to go in, you must take necessary protective measures."
"No need." Xu Rui said without any explanation and went directly into the ward.
Xu Rui really doesn’t need it, because he has already been injected with the super vaccine. Not to mention weak chicken pathogens like typhoid fever, even the H7N9 bird flu virus cannot invade his body!
Seeing Xu Rui come in, Wang Husheng asked: "Old Xu, is the situation serious?"
"The situation is still controllable." Xu Rui waved his hand and said, "Old Wang, you and Xiao Du both got typhoid fever, and it was imported typhoid fever. In other words, someone infected you with typhoid fever. You
Recall carefully, have you had close contact with anyone in the past few days? Especially people with suspected symptoms."
Wang Husheng immediately began to think carefully, and after a moment he said: "Old Xu, I remembered it!"
After a slight pause, Wang Husheng went on to talk about the meeting with fellow villagers two days ago, and finally added: "I remember that among the more than 20 fellow Kunshan fellows, several of them were not feeling well. Now that I think about it, there are still others like me.
Xiao Du's symptoms are actually the same, and they should also have typhoid fever."
"That's right!" Xu Rui said bitterly, "What a dog, this is germ warfare launched by the little devil!"
"What?!" Wang Husheng said in shock, "Old Xu, do you think this is germ warfare initiated by the Japs?"
"It must be it." Xu Rui said bitterly, "This must be some kind of Satanic action of the little devil."
"This is terrible!" Wang Husheng beat his chest and said, "After I asked the questions, I let the twenty-odd Kunshan fellows go and didn't keep them. Now two days have passed, I don't know how many people there will be.
If people are infected by them, we will be in big trouble. I'm afraid there will be a large-scale outbreak of typhoid fever. It's my fault. It's all my fault for being too vigilant. Alas."
"How can I blame you? Who would have thought that the little devil would be so crazy as to fight germ warfare against us?" Xu Rui snorted, and then continued, "But believe me, the little devil will pay the price for today's brutal behavior, for sure!"
But for now, Lao Wang and Xiao Du, you can rest here and recuperate!"
After finishing speaking, Xu Rui turned around and left the ward.
After going out, the doctor who stayed on duty offered to spray Xu Rui with disinfectant. This time Xu Rui did not refuse. He himself was not afraid of typhoid germs, but that did not mean that others were not afraid either, so he could never bring typhoid germs out of the ward.
Go, otherwise wouldn't he also become an accomplice of the Japanese?
The doctor on duty carefully sprayed Xu Rui with disinfectant.
Then, Xu Rui walked into the regiment headquarters smelling like medicine.
Veterans, Yang Rui, Liu Mei, Jiang Nan and other cadres immediately came forward.
"I won't go into details. This is germ warfare by the Japanese!" Xu Rui's words made the atmosphere in the conference room extremely solemn. He then asked everyone, "Have you ever had typhoid fever before?"
Veterans, Yang Rui and Jiang Nan looked confused, but Liu Mei nodded, showing that she was okay.
Xu Rui nodded and said in a deep voice: "Jiangnan, you go to the isolation room immediately and observe for seventy-two hours!"
Jiang Nan realized that the situation was serious, so he didn't say much at the moment and quickly turned around and ran to the isolation room.
The veteran asked: "Lao Xu, don't we need to be quarantined?"
"You don't have to." Xu Rui shook his head and said, "You and Lao Yang are in strong health. At the beginning of the outbreak of typhoid fever, your immune systems were unable to do anything. Lao Ye has already had typhoid fever and is basically immune. However, although isolation is not necessary
, but full-body disinfection is indispensable, you three quickly go to the disinfection room for full-body disinfection!"
After the three veterans came back from disinfection, Xu Rui said to Liu Mei again: "Old Ye, you should go check one thing right now. Those who had physical contact with more than 20 Kunshan fellows two days ago, and those who have had physical contact with them in the past two days."
Anyone who has had physical contact with Lao Wang and Xiao Du, or has used their tableware, bedding or weapons, will be quarantined and observed."
"Okay." Liu Mei agreed, turned around and left in a hurry.
Xu Rui said to Yang Rui again: "Old Yang, your task is the heaviest and most critical. Whether you can defeat the Japanese germ warfare this time depends on whether your work is effective."
Yang Rui said in a deep voice: "Captain, please give the order."
Xu Rui nodded and said: "Now take the regimental security company to find those twenty or so Kunshan fellows. If they are still in Shanghai, isolate them. If they have left, then put them away."
All people who had been in close contact with them for two days were forced to quarantine."
"Yes!" Yang Rui agreed, turned around and left.
"Wait." Xu Rui suddenly stopped Yang Rui again and warned, "The people in the security company can only use it after Lao Ye has completed the screening. Don't be negligent."
"Yes!" Yang Rui agreed again, turned around and left.
Watching Yang Rui leave, Leng Tiefeng asked again: "Old Xu, where am I?"
Xu Rui said: "Since the little devils have launched germ warfare, this wave of attacks will never be the only one. Regardless of whether it is successful or not, there will definitely be a second wave, a third wave and even a fourth wave! This time it is typhoid fever
The germs may be cholera germs or even plague germs next time, so we must not be passively beaten."
Leng Tiefeng said in a deep voice: "You mean, take the initiative?"
"That's right, take the initiative!" Xu Rui nodded and said, "Bacteria like typhoid fever are terrible once they spread on a large scale, but they are very fragile before they are cultivated and mature, and they must use living targets.
You have to carry it with you, so they must have a laboratory near Shanghai, find it for me and then destroy it!"
"Don't worry, I will definitely find the kid's laboratory!" Leng Tiefeng said with a ferocious face.
Xu Rui hummed, and then said: "The key search target is the suspicious target discovered by Leopard last time. I remember it seems to be an abandoned factory in Weiting Town. Ask Leopard later!"
