The night was dark, the car lights were bright, and the rumble of cars echoed throughout this sparsely populated land.
The people in Maerwan District have evacuated safely. There are no residents or animals in the "isolation circle", and the plants here will also become a thing of the past. Even in towns in Mobei, there are not many trees in many places.
, but it is precisely because of this that every tree here is precious.
Tree-cutting trucks, excavators, bulldozers and other large vehicles participating in the "Isolation Circle Plan" are driving to the tree spots in the circle.
At the Mobei Command Center, the commander-in-chief of the operation, Zhou Dajun, had a calm, middle-aged face. He is a native of Mobei. He has watched the environment here become better and better over the years... "Do it!" Zhou Dajun gave an order, and it was different.
The carts at that location drove towards the trees whose branches and leaves were blooming in spring.
The creaking sound of sawing, the clanging sound...
Trees fell down one by one and were carried away by trucks, leaving not a single sapling behind.
At the same time, raging fires were burning everywhere, burning away the weeds on the ground, burning away the original colors of spring, and burning away all vitality.
Everything turned into thick smoke and ashes in the dark night.
The isolation circle, the death zone, gradually but quickly appeared, surrounding the 30 square kilometers of abnormality area.
…
At the Medical Department of Mobei Tianji Bureau, two surgeries are being prepared in the surgical building.
The two patients, Mr. Tian Fuhou and Police Officer Bian Yi, both had their right upper arm amputated.
They all once put their hands into a locust tree and suffered minor burns below their elbows, which was caused by strong nuclear radiation exposure.
For human body absorption of radiation, 1gy is approximately equal to 1sv, sv (sievert) is a unit of dose equivalent, which is the product of the absorbed dose at a certain point in the tissue under study, the quality factor and all other correction factors.
The dose equivalents received by the two people's whole bodies were about 6.2sv and 4.5sv respectively, but the maximum absorption amounts in their right hands reached 1723sv and 1871sv respectively.
There are two other patients, Mr. Zhang Maidong and Police Officer Ma Zhenxing, and their systemic dose equivalents are about 5.6sv and 4.2sv.
On the day of the incident, the symptoms of acute radiation sickness in the four people were getting worse, with frequent vomiting, dizziness and headaches. After determining that it was indeed radiation sickness, the medical team gave them sedation, desensitization, antiemetics and anti-radiation drugs. Zhang Maidong and Ma
The revitalization situation is temporarily under control.
But Tian Fuhou and Bian Yi began to feel severe pain in the burned skin on their right hands starting at noon.
1723sv and 1871sv were there, and the condition progressed very rapidly. The burned skin first became more red and swollen, and then the ulcers became rotten. Then the blood vessels inside burst and bleed, the tissues collapsed, the damaged cells were decomposed, and the entire hand was
It is not in human form.
Tian Fuhou was so painful that he rolled on the bed. He had faced so many hardships in his life, and even in those days when he had neither enough food nor clothing, he never shed a tear.
But now, the old man is crying and wailing, purely because of the huge pain in his body.
The 79-year-old man was suffering from such severe pain that his blood pressure soared, breathing became difficult, all body functions were damaged, and he was at risk of cerebral hemorrhage and cardiopulmonary failure. The medical team immediately injected the old man with a sufficient amount of morphine.
, but this has little effect on the pain caused by nuclear radiation, and there is no specific medicine for radiation sickness.
Officer Bian Yi's situation is not much better, or even worse, because his dose equivalent is greater.
The painful screams continued to ring in the nuclear radiation isolation ward where he lived, like the cries of a person being tortured in hell.
The condition quickly deteriorated to the point where amputation was necessary, the patient was in unbearable pain, and the radioactive material spread in the body.
If there are not some issues that need to be clarified, at least there is more data to support that these two surgeries were performed during the day. The most important question is, is the nuclear radiation in the mutated area just nuclear radiation? Is this radiation sickness? Surgery
Can I have anesthesia? Can I even do surgery?
The surgical building was busy. The medical team sent by the Curse Department arrived in the afternoon, including Wang Ruoxiang and Cai Zixuan.
The two of them will each participate in an operation and serve as three assistants.
Faced with such a situation, they naturally thought of Gu Jun, but at this time in the pre-operative meeting in the conference room, they and others were very focused.
Staff in white coats from both surgeries were gathered in the conference room, as well as many experts and professors conducting consultations.
"As of now," a middle-aged and elderly man with a kind face stood in front of the conference screen and gave his judgment to everyone. This is Professor Zhang Bohai.
Professor Zhang is the director of the first clinical department of the National Nuclear Accident Medical Emergency Center, and also has a series of titles such as the Institute of Radiation Medicine and the Radiological Protection Society. This authoritative expert will lead ordinary medical staff to cooperate with the Tianji Bureau in responding to this incident.
Medical work such as health prevention and control, nuclear and radiation emergency treatment.
"The symptoms of the two patients are no different from ordinary acute radiation injuries, and the various indicators do not have supernatural abnormalities. We believe that the surgery can be performed according to conventional procedures, using general anesthesia." Professor Zhang said, "The sooner the surgery is performed, the better.
.”
Everyone nodded. Without anesthesia, Mr. Tian Fuhou might not have been able to survive. Even if he had a strong will, his blood pressure would not be able to withstand it.
Wang Ruoxiang also nodded slightly. This was her first mission after returning to the spell department.
But I didn't expect it to be such a serious disaster.
One of the difficulties of these two operations is that doctors and nurses have to wear bulky nuclear radiation protective suits to perform the operations.
But this issue is not in Professor Zhang's mind. He does not know how to perform surgery. Yang Rongzhong and Tan Bo, who are in charge of the surgery, are both the orthopedic aces of Mobei Medical Department. Together with the personnel dispatched by the Curse Department, everyone is ready for the operation.
Abnormal conditions that may occur during the process.
After deciding that the surgery would be performed as a routine procedure, the two surgeons decided on a surgical plan with their teams.
After the meeting, all the people in white coats got up and went to the operating room.
"Alas." Cai Zixuan fell behind, still looking at the picture of the patient's diseased hand on the conference screen, and sighed.
The old man Tian Fuhou’s right hand, which was about to be amputated, planted trees in hundreds of acres of wasteland.
"Zixuan, don't be nervous." Wang Ruoxiang patted her old classmate on the shoulder, "Anyway, whether there is radiation or not, your hair will be gone."
She has changed a lot in the past two years, and the only thing that hasn't changed is her hair.
"That's true." Cai Zixuan smiled and touched his bald head, knowing that the squad leader meant well to calm the atmosphere.
The two of them were talking and chasing the people outside the conference room. It was midnight, but they still had two battles in the operating room.
