In Jiangxing Town Hospital, the first batch of infected patients began to die.
The same is true for other hospitals that treat patients in Shanhai City.
The same is true in many hospitals in many cities with outbreaks of Legionnaires' disease around the world.
The death toll continued to rise, surging out of control. At present, not all hospitals in the epidemic area are out of control, but almost all the hospitals in the epidemic area cannot be rescued. There are too many patients, too few medical staff, and insufficient equipment.
In Dahua City, the emergency command center of Tianji Bureau, the excitement and joy of getting the effective medicine is gone, only a depressive silence.
Personnel from various departments looked at the monitoring screens of some hospitals in the epidemic area connected to different areas on the big screen. Some people's eyes were red, and some people lowered their heads.
That is not a picture that people can bear to see, especially Jiangxing Town Hospital.
From the hospital lobby, to the emergency department, to the pharmacy, to the inpatient department, to the second and third floors... Every corridor is full of patients, walking, calling, and looking.
Bloody phlegm, vomit, and other filth were everywhere. The ground, walls, and patients' bodies stained everything and smeared everything with a strange smell.
No one cleaned it up, and no doctors, nurses, or paramedics went to see what was going on, even though the patients were crying and screaming.
Because those figures in white coats were unable to cough anymore earlier, and fell to the ground, paralyzed by the corner of the wall.
At the beginning, they tried their best to keep order and call everyone to calm down...but their condition got worse and worse, and their voices became weaker and weaker.
The death notices of the medical staff continued to be sent to the command center. Dr. Huang Lin died, another emergency doctor Zhao Yutao died, and Dr. Zhang Bo, who was called back to the hospital after seeing Wang Guoxin on duty, also died... Those emergency nurses He died, and the staff from the hospital's sensory department who went to deal with the situation at the first time also died...
Some patients who still had strength began to attack the blockades of several entrances and exits of the hospital, and most of the people in charge of the blockades were also coughing.
The entire hospital seemed to have become a huge morgue, where dead bodies and dying bodies were parked.
The cold body no longer has those temperatures, the temperature of the skin, the temperature of love and exhaustion for life, the temperature of hope and confusion about the future.
Some undone things will never have a chance to be done, some unsaid words will never have a chance to be said, and some unseen scenery will never have a chance to be appreciated.
All those once hot, all turned into rot, and then all became empty.
No one knows, as if it has never been in the world.
"Director, it's too late. The research ship still needs time."
In a leadership seat of the command center, Yao Shinian and others are discussing with the director, "The highest level of epidemic control must be activated immediately, and the whole country is blocked. Otherwise, this disaster will definitely get out of control. The whole country... Shanhai City side, I'm about to give up."
In fact, from the afternoon onwards, the traffic of flights, high-speed rail, etc. began to be controlled, and the movement of people in some big cities was also controlled.
However, The Division is a different story.
Measures of this level are not up to the Bureau of Astronomical Secrets to decide whether to launch them. At most, the Bureau of Astronomical Secrets will submit a proposal.
However, in the current situation, the entire territory must be blocked, the sooner the better.
"Drug No. 1" has brought the dawn, but the time is running out. Although the whole world is working together now, from the analysis of the molecular formula and structural formula of the drug, to the testing of the synthetic route, to the production of the raw material drug, and then to the imitation of the preparation... the whole process The process is expected to take a day or two, regardless of the purity and quality.
This is still based on the premise that everything goes well, but the researchers are not particularly optimistic. The ingredients of this drug are very complicated.
Even if you take the raw medicine directly—it can’t be called a medicine at all, it’s just a bunch of compounds. It’s hard to say whether it is effective or has any toxic side effects.
That might take a day too.
24 hours a day, with the spreading power and lethal speed of this Legionella, a city can be destroyed in one day.
If the spread of the epidemic cannot be controlled now, even if there is a prescription, no one will produce it.
"Giving up" Shanhai City is not an easy decision...
But in fact, there is still a chance to save, and it is called giving up if you choose not to save between saving and not saving.
The current situation is that they have no chance at all, this is not giving up, it is a complete defeat.
It's just... that's a city with a population of three million.
"Let's report it now."
The old director's voice was grim, even though Yao Shinian and the others were old and had gone through all kinds of troubles, they couldn't help trembling at this moment.
Some decisions are not easy to make, but someone needs to make them. There is a shortage of manpower everywhere, and now even gas-tight protective clothing is in short supply. It's not that they are willing to give up Shanhai City, it's that other places also need manpower to operate, those places that still have opportunities...
Some people in Shanhai City may survive, and some people may develop valuable antibodies, but right now it cannot prevent a city from going to ruin.
At the same time as the report, the command center issued an order to the front line:
"Everyone is ready to evacuate!"
"Problem team, please leave Jiangxing Town Hospital, there will be a helicopter to transport you to the main ship, please reply."
In the inpatient department of Jiangxing Town Hospital, the chaotic coughing and mourning were still ringing, and Uncle Dan and Peacock all heard the orders from the headquarters through the walkie-talkie.
"..." Gu Jun also heard it, but he was unwilling to respond. He knew what it meant to evacuate.
He had inspected a lot of wards just now, and everyone died, but he didn't find any special patients who triggered his gnosis.
He wanted to save them all and save all the patients here, but he only had 4 anti-inflammatory drugs in his hand.
"Cough, cough..." He Feng next to him coughed badly. Gu Jun knew that the disease control expert had been ill for more than 12 hours, and his condition had not yet reached an irreversible level.
The rapid implementation of this disease control measure is inseparable from He Feng's high efficiency.
"Expert He." Gu Jun calmed down, and if he could save one, he must be saved, "Take a medicine first and see how it works."
He Feng's pale face covered with profuse sweat suddenly lifted his spirits, and his eyes became brighter, which was the joy born of the hope of being able to live.
"Doctor Gu, Doctor Gu..." He Feng burst into a series of violent coughs as soon as he got excited, and he had to turn his head and spit out a mouthful of bloody phlegm towards the wall.
This is definitely not what disease control personnel should do. This kind of medical waste should not be handled like this...
But now, now, He Feng begged urgently: "Give me this medicine, I want to give it to my daughter, ahem, she is only seven years old, she only got sick for less than two hours, she can last longer For a long time, let her eat? She and my wife are at home, my house is less than an hour's drive from here, cough cough... "
He Feng coughed until his face turned purple, "I'll take the medicine and drive back now, I still have three to five hours to move, I can go back, I can go back..."
