Chapter 427: Another experiment [ask for a monthly ticket, ask for a subscription]

Views:

After Wang Jinbo vomited violently, the medical team still performed gastric lavage on him to wash out all the 50 grams of soil he ate. After that, his vital signs such as heart rate and blood pressure slowly dropped to normal high levels.

All the ten patients who participated in the experiment had this result. After eating the soil, they developed symptoms of food poisoning, abdominal pain, and vomiting, and six patients had hematemesis.

The medical team then performed gastroscopy on all ten patients, and found that the esophagus and gastric mucosa of the patients with hematemesis had ruptured bleeding sites, which should be acute upper gastrointestinal bleeding caused by them swallowing mud too quickly. The medical team immediately gave him hemostatic treatment and transfused blood plasma and glucose.

Acute upper gastrointestinal bleeding is not a major event, what is more serious is the change in the mental state of the patients.

After the experiment, ten patients became emotionally agitated to the point of losing their minds, and five patients, including Wang Jinbo, needed injections of diazepam. They clamored before that they didn't want to eat this kind of soil, they wanted another kind, and they scolded the doctors and nurses for deceiving them, wanting them to die, and killing them.

If the patient just has no appetite or even can't eat, he can also be given intravenous nutrition to maintain life.

But mentality is another aspect. In addition to sedative treatment, another step is to immobilize the patient's body, artificially coma, and damage the nerves...

Even with the best resources, the medical team doesn't have many tools.

Si Kouxian experienced such a dilemma again and again. Patients with heteroscalia feel itching and must scratch it, while patients with locust disease feel hungry and must eat specific soil. The two may be the same principle, the patient's spirit is affected by some kind of ritual and some kind of power.

Even, this influence comes from the mutation area.

The mutation area is there, no matter what role it is playing, there is no way for the Tianji Bureau to end it for the time being.

Is the patient given to eat that abnormal soil? What kind of nerve destruction should be done? Lobotomy

The plans for these clinical trial projects have been placed on the podium of the command center. Atomization and resection will cause irreversible permanent damage, and feeding abnormal soil may cause the patient's condition to develop to the next stage.

After dissecting Principal Cui, the medical team had a question: Did the patient eat mud because of infection with parasites, or was the infection caused by parasites

Now Director Wang and their symptoms have another problem. The patient is eager to eat abnormal soil. Is it for the insect eggs in the mud, or the soil is enough

The scope of that abnormal wasteland is not small, and there are a lot of insect eggs in some soils, but not all of them.

The first question cannot be directly clarified now. A normal person would not suddenly eat mud, and there are more than 300 people who are missing. They should be affected by the spirit before eating the mud. But there are no clues to indicate what state Principal Cui was in before eating mud, and when he ate mud for the first time.

But if you can figure out the second question, then the first question almost has the answer.

If the patient is mentally affected, is driven to eat the eggs of the locust, eats the eggs and becomes infected with parasites, and the parasites drive the patient to eat more dirt.

If it is such a disease process, then no matter how much ordinary soil or abnormal soil is eaten, as long as no eggs are eaten, it will not develop to the next stage. It also means that these patients infected by President Cui have no locust parasites in their bodies, or any physically transmissible pathogens.

In this case, as long as they are not allowed to come into contact with the locust eggs and these patients are transported out of Mobei, their epidemic will be controlled.

As for the treatment, we can also see if the abnormal soil and Mobei soil can satisfy them.

However, if the situation is that after these patients are mentally affected, there are already parasites in their bodies, and they can hatch, grow and reproduce as long as they eat the corresponding soil.

Or Principal Cui was infected by eating the eggs and became a carrier, but the new patients infected by him do not need to inhale the eggs, and the body will appear in the body...

This is the worst case, harder to understand and harder to control.

The Tianji Bureau has no control over where the more than three hundred people who disappeared have gone, and it is also not sure what is so special about the abnormal soil other than insect eggs.

Because from the results of the soil composition test, the "abnormal soil" is no different from other wasteland soil in Mobei, and there is no nuclear radiation.

In view of the critical situation now, the command center still issued an order to carry out this clinical experiment.

What the result is, needs to be tested to know.

On March 17, it was past ten o'clock in the evening, and the isolation base was busy. Wang Ruoxiang rubbed her temples and continued to pull herself together.

Six patients participated in the experiment. Four of them had just undergone the experiment of eating common soil, two had hematemesis, two did not, and one of them was injected with diazepam; the other two patients had not eaten normal soil.

Since the transmission mechanism of locust disease is unknown, the teachers and students' self-explosion of Principal Cui is a kind of witnessing and listening to his words.

Patients who eat the abnormal soil may produce worms, which may self-explode and cause infection, so this experiment must be carried out carefully. Monitoring will continue in the advanced isolation ward where the six patients are located, but there will be no real-time viewing from the command center.

Even the medical team is not all watching, or walking into the ward when something happens.

There were only three people on the front line of this operation. They were the three of them staring at the surveillance and entering the ward, and they were all mentally prepared for the possibility of being infected.

"I can see the state of the patient, I can spell, and I know first aid."

One of them is Wang Ruoxiang, who volunteered for Yingying. She wanted to make some contribution. After being locked up for so long, the situation is so serious now. It was she who did something.

Master Tong agreed to her request. The danger of this operation is no less than entering the abnormal area, but the staff of the magic department are here to do this.

Besides Wang Ruoxiang, the other two are nurse Lin Shizhe and investigator Chen Xiang, both of whom understand the old seal.

The six patients did not conduct the experiment at the same time. If there is a big problem at the beginning, there is no need to carry out the subsequent experiments.

The first patient in the experiment was Zhou Kewen, male, 18 years old, a senior high school student, who had eaten ordinary soil, had hematemesis and injected diazepam.

At this time, Zhou Kewen was sitting semi-fixed on the hospital bed, his feet were tied and locked, and his hands could move. Although he was sedated, he still couldn't sit still. The door of the ward was opened with a bang, and an unmanned vehicle drove in, and the door was closed again. There was only 50 grams of abnormal yellow-brown soil without insect eggs in the car.

"Ah, ah..." Zhou Kewen's heart rate rose rapidly, and he struggled excitedly. Before the car reached the bed, he reached out to explore the small lump of dirt.

Wang Ruoxiang's voice came from the loudspeaker in the corner of the ward: "Student Zhou, you can start eating, try to eat as slowly as possible, so as not to hurt the esophagus..."

But Zhou Wen didn't seem to hear it. He grabbed the dirt with trembling hands and stuffed it into his mouth frantically, his expression almost crazy.
