Xiao Chen also wanted to visit Marina Villa to see Sister Leng Xue and the others, but now Mr. Tang was so anxious to ask him to come over.
Xiao Chen could only drive in the direction of the affiliated hospital first.
After arriving at the Affiliated Hospital, we parked the car and hurried to Mr. Tang's office. When he saw Xiao Chen coming, Mr. Tang showed him the two newspapers in front of him.
This is the latest evening newspaper from Binhai City. It was obviously delivered just this afternoon.
Xiao Chen took it and looked at it, and saw news about the outbreak of plague in the southwest.
In that small town in the southwest, relevant persons in charge of the health departments of the province, city, and county held a press conference to announce the specific situation of the plague outbreak.
Because it is still unclear what this disease is related to, the name of the disease can only be called an unknown disease.
The disease was first discovered in a villager in that mountain village. The villager initially showed flu-like symptoms, including fever and cough, which may be accompanied by headache, muscle aches and general malaise. There may also be runny nose, nasal congestion, sore throat, etc. Next
Below, some patients develop symptoms such as chest tightness and difficulty breathing when the lung lesions are severe or the disease progresses rapidly.
The incubation period of this disease should be about three to seven days. What is the specific method of infection, where is the source of the disease, and what is the method of transmission.
Now we have nothing but specific symptoms to determine whether those patients have been infected with this disease.
Judging from the data on these patients, most of the infected people are villagers in that village, excluding villagers who go out. Twenty-five villagers have died of infection, and there are also eight medical staff from the town health center.
, the earliest patients exposed to these infectious diseases also died in these days.
A total of thirty-three patients died.
In addition, patients who have been infected or have symptoms of the incubation period, in addition to villagers, and medical staff, a total of 234, are all being isolated and treated in the village.
Although the total number of these patients has exceeded 200, these relevant departments have explained the specific situation in detail in the reports, so that everyone does not need to panic or anything else.
After Xiao Chen read it in detail, he then looked at the patient conditions described in the reports.
"Xiao Chen, do you think it's typhoid fever or influenza?" asked Mr. Tang.
Judging from the description in this report, it looks very much like influenza. However, because the specific mode of transmission has not yet been determined, Mr. Tang cannot be sure.
However, plagues like this are almost always related to these.
"It's similar to the flu, but it's not certain."
According to modern medicine, typhoid fever is an acute intestinal infectious disease caused by Salmonella typhi and is mainly spread through fecal-oral and water pollution.
Influenza is an acute respiratory infectious disease caused by influenza viruses. It is spread through droplets. It is highly contagious and spreads quickly, which can cause epidemics.
Therefore, now Xiao Chen can only confirm that this disease is definitely an infectious disease and is very contagious. Fortunately, it only broke out in that small town for the time being and was quickly discovered and treated in isolation.
"If it were you, how would you treat me?" Mr. Tang asked again.
In fact, in response to this situation, traditional Chinese medicine actually involves the typhoid fever school and the febrile disease school. These two schools have different treatment methods for this epidemic.
However, the febrile disease school prospered and developed because of the plague, and the febrile disease school has more experience and methods to deal with this plague.
For Xiao Chen, he does not belong to any school of thought. He wants to see the patient's specific condition in person, including checking the pulse, tongue, and even the patient's urine and defecation.
Therefore, Xiao Chen could not draw a conclusion until he actually saw the patient.
"Mr. Tang, I'll go back and check online tonight."
Now that the government no longer blocks and conceals it, there will be more revelations about this type of epidemic on the Internet, and more people will pay attention.
"Then where are you going now?"
"I'm going to Marina Bay Villas."
Xiao Chen did not go back to Tang's Traditional Chinese Medicine Clinic for dinner, but went to Marina Villa.
After driving to the Marina Villa, Xiao Chen stopped the car at the entrance of the villa. Liu Feifei, Shen Wanqin, and Jiang Xiaoxiao's Land Rover were parked outside the entrance.
Xiao Chen got off the car and went inside. He saw Liu Feifei and Wang Xiao watching TV in the living room, but Jiang Xiaoxiao and Shen Wanqin were not seen.
"Sister Feifei, sister Wang Xiao." Xiao Chen went over directly and sat between the two of them.
"Why are you here?" Liu Feifei was still confused.
"Of course I came here to see Sister Wang Xiao and the others."
Xiao Chen always felt that he would leave Binhai City for a while in a few days. He felt that it would be related to the southwest plague.
It’s impossible for him to sit idly by and ignore it!
Although I'm not sure yet, so I'd better come and take a look now.
In addition, Xiao Chen wanted to see how the situation of the traditional Chinese medicine factory was going.
"Doctor Xiao, have you eaten?" Wang Xiao asked.
"Not yet?"
If Sister Wang Xiao and the nanny have already finished dinner, then Xiao Chen will go out to eat with Jiang Xiaoxiao or Shen Wanqin.
"Then let Auntie cook your food." Wang Xiao got up and put on his slippers and went to the kitchen to ask the nanny to cook more of Xiao Chen's food.
Xiao Chen got up, went upstairs, came to Shen Wanqin's room, looked inside with a clairvoyant eye, and sure enough saw Shen Wanqin sitting there wearing a thin pajamas.
Recently, Shen Wanqin did not go back to her parents' villa. She found that the conflict with her parents had eased a lot. Of course, she found that it was really nice here and she liked the quiet environment here.
"Sister Wanqin." Xiao Chen knocked on the door.
When Shen Wanqin heard Xiao Chen's knock on the door, she got up and opened the door.
Seeing Xiao Chen standing outside the door, Shen Wanqin asked, "Would you like to come over for a drink?"
"Sister Wanqin, if you want to drink, come and drink with me." Xiao Chen went in and said.
Now the room can smell Shen Wanqin's fragrance, which may be mixed with the scent of perfume. After all, she had a slight hidden disease before, but it has disappeared after Xiao Chen treated her.
However, Shen Wanqin was still curious about what Xiao Chen said to Manager Ma that afternoon, so that the other party directly took out the credit loan.
Of course, Shen Wanqin already knew that the reason why she had an agreement with Manager Ma but was suddenly suppressed by Manager Ma was actually because Li Yifei was using his connections with the Li family to do things behind his back. There is no doubt that this made Shen Wanqin even more disgusted with Li Yifei. .
Shen Wanqin told her parents that they still couldn't believe that Li Yifei was doing those things behind his back.
After all, the eldest young master of the Li family has always left a very good impression on the two of them.
"How is the situation of the uncle in your company?" Xiao Chen asked about the middle-aged man who was a rabies patient.
In fact, the last time Xiao Chen went to check on the other party, he knew that the other party was fine.
"It's okay. Now I'm not afraid of light, wind, water, or sound. I'm just continuing to drink the medicinal soup you prescribed." (To be continued)
