To clarify this point, Xia Shige asked again: "What if this virus spreads very quickly?..."
"...Anyway, that's how it's played out in the movies! A person is bitten by a zombie one second, and the next second he becomes a zombie and bites someone else! A 10-second shot can turn a room full of normal people into zombies. If that's really the case..."
If the virus spreads as fast as it is shown in the movies, can the army still cope with it? Will the whole army be wiped out if just one person gets bit?
Zhou Hong shook his head and replied: "If this is true, then there is no need to be afraid!"
"The reason why many infectious viruses are so scary is that their incubation period is too long! Because of the long incubation period, those virus carriers don't even know that they have been infected. They carry out normal social activities, frequently come into contact with people, and spread the virus at the same time, causing more people to be infected..."
"In this way, by the time the first group of people infected by the virus show symptoms, many people have already been infected and it is impossible to control the situation. This is the most difficult situation!"
"Like the zombie virus in the movies, you get bitten one second and turn into a zombie the next. A virus with such a short incubation period will be wiped out before it can spread beyond the area. It is actually the easiest to deal with!"
At this point, Zhou Hong paused, frowned and sighed: "...I am afraid that the incubation period of this virus is very long...and the transmission route is not limited to blood transmission..."
After listening to Zhou Hong's words, Xia Shige also understood. Thinking of a certain possibility, she murmured: "...if...if this type of virus has a long incubation period...if it can not only be transmitted through blood, but also through the air..."
At this point, Xia Shige couldn't continue. She stood up from the sofa and said to Officer Tan Zhen with some concern: "If this is true, could it be that our emergency office was already infected yesterday?!"
Yesterday, several policemen from the emergency office and Xia Shige had close contact with the female worker 1404. When Officer Zheng Xin opened fire, the blood of the female worker 1404 splattered on them.
If this type of virus really has a long incubation period and can be transmitted through the air...
Xia Shige suppressed the chill rising in his heart and murmured, "...I...I'd better go home and "self-isolate" first...If I'm really infected, I can't infect others..."
To be on the safe side, Xia Shige decided to let everyone in his family take an S-level secret medicine for the distant sea when he got home, so that even if they were really infected, they could be remedied in time.
Seeing this, Officer Tan Zhen patted Xia Shige on the shoulder and comforted her: "Don't scare yourself, these are just our guesses. Experts at the institute are currently working overtime to study this type of virus. Let's wait until the research results come out before we talk about it!"
"If it's really as you guessed - this virus has a long incubation period and is airborne... then I'm afraid it's really God's will to end human civilization in this era. This is not something that human power can resist, so there's no point in being afraid!"
Xia Shige sighed helplessly upon hearing this - humans had finally survived three years of natural disasters, including extremely hot summers, volcanic eruptions, endless nights, blizzards and droughts, rainstorms and floods... The rain was about to subside and things were about to return to normal, but now they were faced with this type of virus again...
Thinking of the irrational and crazy biting look of 1404 Female Industry, Xia Shige had only one thought in his mind -
Could it really be God's will to end human civilization on Earth?
…
Xia Shige was feeling a little depressed. She packed her lunch box and left Zhou Hong's ward, deciding to contact Wu Peiyi online after returning to ask about their research progress on the type 2 virus.
But what she didn't expect was that as soon as she walked to the corner of the stairs, she saw someone she didn't want to see -
