Chapter 38 The Beginning and End of the Disease
Hearing this question, Li Sen remembered clearly what happened.
Six months ago, their company obtained an extremely rare virus found in the deep ice of Antarctica.
This virus is very magical. It can iterate and update at an extremely fast speed while keeping its own characteristics unchanged. This almost perfectly meets the human requirement of prolonging life. It can also be used in a series of great medical undertakings that are beneficial to human life and health, such as organ repair and human body maintenance.
This is simply the lifelong pursuit of every researcher in the biomedical field.
This ancient virus, named T virus, simply meets the most perfect requirements.
No one can find fault with it.
At the request of the company's top management, they quickly formed a project team and opened a Level 4 biological laboratory to carry out a series of cultivation, analysis, observation and preservation of this most unique strain.
Everything went according to plan and the experiment was proceeding in an orderly manner.
Every experimenter who has seen the experimental records and data has been amazed at the perfection of the T virus. While dividing 1,000 times faster than similar cells, each offspring maintains almost the same characteristics as the first generation.
Unless in extremely low temperatures, the T virus will remain dormant and in a static state.
The team leader in charge of the study immediately went crazy.
They conducted experimental research day and night in a fanatical state.
Soon, they completed the first phase of animal experiments with extremely high efficiency and began to actively recruit volunteers for the second phase of experiments.
Initially, the first batch of experimental volunteers were very successful.
The child who had suffered extensive burns recovered his skin, which was smooth and tender and indistinguishable from other normal skin.
A patient whose forearm was amputated due to a car accident grew a new arm and hand that perfectly matched the broken joint surface. The left and right hands were even very symmetrical. It was simply a work of God.
Patients who need organs will have new organs grow in their bodies after their body cells fuse with the T virus, and their health will be restored.
Even an elderly person who is on his deathbed wants to restore his aging body to the strength, youthfulness and beauty of a young person, and she actually succeeded.
While the experiment was successful, scientists including Li Sen agreed that it was completely out of control.
Just think about it, this virus seems to be able to read your thoughts and your mind, and can fulfill any outrageous desire to repair your body. It is as terrifying as a demon.
But another group of enthusiastic scientists think that this is simply a miracle.
It was God who created this beautiful creature to help humans achieve longevity and immortality.
They compare themselves to Lilith who stole the apple in the Garden of Eden, and Prometheus who stole the fire and left civilization for mankind. Since the Creator God left behind such perfect creatures, they should be the ones to spread wisdom and fire and explore the path to immortality for mankind.
Therefore, with the strong support of the project leader and the tacit approval of the company's senior management, recruitment for the Phase II clinical trial continued.
They obtained the second, third, and fourth batches of volunteers, requiring them to sign expensive confidentiality agreements and not violate the contracts or leave the city of Snowe within a year. They also needed to undergo a series of follow-up tracking and investigations.
But this still couldn't stop a large number of wealthy people from rushing in after the news leaked out, like moths to a flame.
Those who are sick wish to be healthy.
The imperfect desire perfection.
The old man longs for rebirth.
However, at this time, something strange happened.
The first group of humans who received T virus treatment subsequently died one after another.
The company immediately sent people to deal with the bodies and compensation, and brought the bodies back to the laboratory to begin autopsies for the experimenters.
The results showed that the virus began to mutate.
They may be completely incompatible with human genes, or perhaps this creature has a strange mind. After disguising itself as invariant, it encounters the human body, a breeding ground suitable for virus growth, and begins to grow wildly.
After all, humans are too fragile to withstand the high iteration and high-rate reproduction of cells, and their bodies begin to collapse.
Then, after death, they are controlled by some bloodthirsty will and transformed into fanatical blood-thirsty monsters, frantically transforming their own kind in order to achieve the purpose of splitting and reproducing.
This virus does not discriminate between the rich and the poor. All volunteers who have been exposed to the T virus injection have developed this condition.
A group of experimenters died in the laboratory.
At the same time, what gives the company a headache is not just this monster that desperately hits the glass through the glass window.
These are just the first seven experimental volunteers.
After the second batch, there were a full one hundred experimental volunteers, including various wealthy people and high-ranking government officials. If this group of people began to change, the whole situation would get out of control.
The company's top management immediately began to deal with the second batch of experimental volunteers and reported the situation to the government, requesting secret assistance in an attempt to cover up the scandal.
The top government officials compromised.
However, the speed at which things changed has exceeded the expectations of the company's top management.
While they were arresting the second batch of patients, the third and fourth batches of test volunteers also began to mutate. They were short of manpower and could no longer keep the secret.
Hospitals throughout the city of Snoa began to receive patients with similar rabies-like symptoms.
Citizens began to panic and become confused. The infected people ran into the streets and the virus began to spread. The authorities directly blocked the network between the city and the outside world.
Citizens are unable to pass this kind of information to the outside world, and the outside world is unable to get the news here. An invisible hand is trying to cover up the scandal.
Now, the situation is completely out of control. They hypocritically want to obtain original data for vaccine development, and at the same time plan to drop nuclear bombs to completely conceal the events here.
This is what Li Sen learned about the whole incident.
As a researcher, he fought hard, but to no avail, and could only strive to provide timely filing processing for the development of the virus.
Today, he has the most complete research data and experimental records, as well as the most original T virus strain and the precious first-generation suppressive vaccine.
Although Li Sen hates those hypocritical senior officials, he has to admit that he must rely on their help to continue developing vaccines and find the key to breaking the deadlock.
Li Sen's narration was very complete, and Su You understood what had happened.
She also realized that the fact that she was unaware of the outbreak of the virus in her previous life might be related to the suppression by the top leaders of Country A.
After the natural disaster, news was stagnant and everyone was busy trying to survive, so no one cared about the disappearance of a city on the other side of the ocean.
After all, even the Sakura Country has slid to the bottom of the Mariana Trench, and countless small cities have disappeared.
