Chapter 265: Carrying the virus to 60 years?
When Pan Ye saw her boyfriend suddenly appear, her eyes lit up instantly:
"Hey, Sanqi, you're back."
Lin Sanqi was still furious. "What's wrong with you? Why are your eyes bloodshot, red and swollen? How long have you been working continuously?"
Being a doctor is not only a mental job, but also a physical job. When a doctor works continuously for more than 24 hours or even 48 hours, he will appear lifeless.
The mind is tired, and the body is even more tired.
When the mask disease was at its worst, doctors could not eat, drink, or even urinate after entering the isolation ward. After working for more than 10 hours in a row and coming out of the ward, all the doctors looked pale and weak.
This is Pan Ye’s mental state now. It’s obvious that it’s caused by working for too long continuously.
Faced with her boyfriend's sudden "harsh" questioning, Pan Ye was confused at first, wondering why her boyfriend's attitude had become so bad?
Then she thought that it was her boyfriend who felt sorry for her, and she felt a little sweet in her heart, so she explained while taking the patient's temperature:
"We have been busy for five days. It's not just me, every doctor and nurse is busy. Don't worry, no one is bullying me."
An old nurse next to him also joked:
"Xiao Yezi, your man is really protective of his child. His eyes are about to pop out of his head, haha."
Lin Sanqi was relieved to hear that there was no bullying incident as he had expected. After all, not every teaching teacher is kind and amiable. He was just bullied during his internship.
Pan Ye and the old nurse’s job is pre-examination and triage, which means taking body temperature.
Seeing the long queue of at least 100 meters from the main gate to the triage desk, Lin Sanqi felt his scalp tingling.
"What's going on? Why are there so many patients with fever suddenly here?"
Pan Ye was also a little confused:
"I don't know. There are a lot of adults and children with fever these days. People come to see the doctor day and night. It's not just Changping. People from nearby Shunyi, Haidian, and Mentougou have come here for treatment. And everyone's symptoms are almost the same."
"What kind of symptoms?"
"that is……"
The old nurse got impatient and said, "Alright, alright, Xiaolin, if you have any questions, just ask your dad. Can't you see how busy we are?"
Lin Sanqi was surprised: "My father? Isn't he in the city?"
"He came here yesterday, making a fuss. He's in the first office on the right. We're too busy here to come. Your father and your eldest brother are here. After all, your Lin family is the best at treating typhoid fever."
"Okay, I'll go take a look."
From the perspective of traditional Chinese medicine, general fever is either a "wind-heat cold" or a "typhoid fever", and the Lin family is professional in both cases.
Outside Dr. Lin Kushen's office, the hospital was already crowded with patients. The crying of children, the impatient complaints of parents while waiting, and the hoarse voices of young nurses made the hospital look very messy.
The more Lin Sanqi looked at it, the more guilty he felt. He wondered if he had brought the mask disease from 2013 here with him.
Because the overcrowded scene in this hospital is so similar to the hospitals in the city connecting nine provinces in 2020?
Lin Sanqi didn't dare to say anything and wanted to squeeze in to ask his father about the situation. However, because he had just returned from another place and was not wearing a hospital white coat, he was scolded:
"Hey, hey, what's wrong with you, young comrade? Why are you pushing so hard?"
"That's right, didn't you see I was holding a child in my arms?"
"Go line up at the back, if you dare to cut in line, I'll just have to deal with you!"
When Lin Sanqi heard that the crowd had misunderstood, he quickly took out his work ID from his pocket and shouted:
"Everyone, I'm a doctor in this hospital. Please make way for me so I can see your child."
A sharp-eyed parent saw this and laughed:
"You're talking nonsense! You're pretending to be a doctor with an officer's ID? Even if you're a soldier of the people, you still have to queue up, right?"
Lin Sanqi took a closer look and realized he had taken the wrong one. This was the officer's certificate that President Liu Shengli had just given him, so he quickly exchanged it for another one.
"This one is right. Look, it says Capital Hospital of Traditional Chinese Medicine."
Some people were dissatisfied: "Are you a soldier or a doctor? You have so many work IDs on you, are they fake?"
Lin Sanqi was also speechless:
"Who says doctors and soldiers can't be one and the same? Haven't you heard of military doctors? Get out of the way! If you want your child to get better quickly, you really can't do it without me."
The people around him said disdainfully, "Who do you think you are? Doctor Lin? He can reduce a child's fever in half an hour. Can you do that?"
"That's right, Divine Doctor Lin is sitting inside. What can you do?"
Lin Sanqi thought, wasn't he the miracle doctor who brought down the child's fever in just half an hour? How did he become the miracle doctor Lao Lin in the story?
This was actually one of the reasons why Lin Kushen came to the Changping branch. After the parents of the child who had convulsions that day returned home, they spread the word about the magic of Dr. Lin from the Chinese Medicine Hospital at home and at work.
So when the fever patients rushed to the Changping branch, they found that there was no doctor named Lin among the doctors on duty, and they were dissatisfied.
Socialism in which the people are the masters of their own country is not just talk. The masses are dissatisfied, and the Changping branch cannot explain clearly, and Lin Sanqi is on a business trip again.
So as a last resort, they urgently transferred Doctor Xiao Lin's father, Doctor Lao Lin, to the Changping branch.
When Lin Kucan heard that he was going to clean up his youngest son's butt, he didn't say anything. He packed his bag and rushed to Changping to take over his son's medical appointment.
Of course, Doctor Lin’s skills are not exaggerated. He is very good at reducing fever. However, this is only compared with other doctors. Compared with Lin Sanqi himself, he is still a little bit worse. He can’t reduce fever in half an hour.
Lin Sanqi finally squeezed into the office and saw his father and elder brother each sitting at a desk, carefully examining a patient.
"Dad, brother, why are you here?"
When Lin Kucan saw his youngest son, although he had a thousand words in his heart, he just smiled and continued to lower his head to take the patient's pulse.
When Lin Gancao saw his brother, he smiled and nodded, motioning Lin Sanqi to stand behind his father and watch without making any noise.
After a while, Lin Kushen gently put down the patient's hand, and then said to Lin Sanqi:
"Hey, Dr. Lin is back. Come here and diagnose this patient's problem. Let me see how you can reduce a fever in half an hour."
Lin Sanqi thought, why do old Chinese doctors like to test young people so much?
"Dad, you want me to treat you? My treatment is different from others. Please don't get so angry that you vomit blood."
Lin Kushen chuckled: "If you can cure the disease, why should I be angry? Even if you don't use my Lingnan School of Medicine, I will be happy to see it succeed."
Lin Sanqi knew his father's temper and that he was definitely an open-minded person, so he boldly sat in front of the patient and asked the family:
"What's your child's temperature?"
The parents were a little suspicious of Lin Sanqi's age, thinking that he must be an apprentice. Although they were reluctant to let the apprentice take over, they pretended to cooperate on the surface.
"My child has had a high fever for three days and three nights, with the highest temperature reaching 40 degrees Celsius. The medicine he took was ineffective."
Lin Sanqi asked, "What medicine did you take?"
"The Chinese medicine prescribed by our factory doctor told us to drink two doses a day. It helped reduce the fever a little, but it would return to a high fever right away."
"Are you coughing or sniffling?"
"No, I just have a fever, feel weak, and want to sleep all day."
Lin Sanqi took out a large flashlight from her bag and said, "Come on, baby, open your mouth wide and take a look. Ah~~~"
“Ah~~~”
Lin Sanqi took a look and found that the tonsils were normal, with no pus spots or herpes. Now the two diseases that caused the high fever were ruled out.
Then, Lin Sanqi examined several other children in succession. The more he examined, the more shocked he became, because there was no simple fever like cold symptoms, which looked very much like a coronavirus infection.
Lin Sanqi turned around and asked weakly, "Dad, do all the patients you see have the same symptoms?"
Lin Kucan nodded and answered patiently:
"From yesterday to today, I've seen about 200 patients in total. All of them had symptoms of fever, chills, headache without sweating, limb aches, and dry throat pain. Runny nose and cough were almost non-existent. The tongue coating was thin white, and the pulse was either rapid or floating and tight."
After hearing this, Lin Sanqi's heart sank more and more, thinking, isn't this a typical symptom of wearing a mask?
The mask virus is a new type of virus that only began to appear in 2019 and has never existed before.
If the mask disease spread in 1960, there is only one answer, and that is that it was brought by Lin Sanqi.
Lin Sanqi still didn't give up and continued to ask:
"Dad, then, have any of the parents experienced similar symptoms? Also with high fever, sore legs and feet, etc."
At this time, several parents in the office raised their hands:
"Yes, I have a fever too!"
"Yes, my whole body aches now, as if I've been beaten up!"
"I have a sore throat. It hurts like a knife!"
"My nose is stuffy. Oh my god, it's hard to breathe."
Lin Sanqi's back was instantly soaked with sweat, and he thought to himself, "Oh my god, this is all right."
The ten symptoms of mask disease, nicknamed "Ten Tortures of the Qing Dynasty" by the medical community, are:
The throat was pulled by a knife, the nostrils were sealed with cement, the skull was opened without anesthesia, the eyeballs were drilled with an electric drill, the kidneys were cut out with a guillotine, the whole body was stabbed with slow slicing, the buttocks were sat on durian, the bones were gnawed by insects, the throat had a razor blade swallowed, it was like a world of ice and fire.
Now both the children and the parents have shown the same symptoms, and they all fit the criteria. Could it be that I have really done something wrong?
When Lin Sanqi thought about the heavy blow his time travel had brought to this suffering country, he really wanted to buy a piece of tofu and kill himself.
"Dad, what do you think this disease is?"
Lin Kushen asked in return, "What do you think the disease is?"
Lin Sanqi's mouth was dry. "I think this is a plague. It's very contagious. I'm afraid that in the end..."
