"Energy rain, try using energy rain!" Li Zongmengguan remembered that he had used energy rain to cure the unknown No. 1 infected person before, and shouted to Dean Xu as if he had grasped a lifeline.
Dean Xu wiped away his tears, his voice mournful, "I've tried everything, I've tried everything, but it's no use..."
That's right. During the few days that Dean Xu was in seclusion, several key researchers had already tried to treat HZ virus infected patients with energy rainwater. It's possible that the energy rainwater couldn't even control the ulceration and infection, let alone cure the infection.
"Then what do you suggest we do?" General Li muttered, seemingly deflated, as he sat at his desk.
It took her a while to realize, "What about the transmission route? Is there any record of it?"
Dean Xu then remembered, "It is said that many HZ virus infected people are asymptomatic in the early stages, but start to have fever, mild headache and nausea in the middle stages through mosquito bites."
Then, in the later stages, symptoms include decreased consciousness, headaches, neck stiffness, tremors, drowsiness, or seizures. Finally, the body tissues rot, organs fail, and death occurs.
More than 300 years ago, during the plague in Moyou Kingdom, 90% of those infected died, and the remaining 10% of survivors suffered permanent nerve damage.
The epidemic lasted for seven months. Mo Youguo neither understood the HZ virus nor developed a vaccine. The only way to prevent the disease was to avoid mosquito bites.
After thinking for a moment, Dean Xu added, "This information is derived from the surviving data. As for whether the virus currently infected in China is a variant of the virus from back then, or whether the virus's transmissibility and destructive power have increased, we do not know."
Many results still require further research and confirmation. For now, all we can do is take various measures to prevent mosquito bites.
Li Zongmengguan also recalled the unusually fierce mosquitoes that had appeared after the temperature rose this year, and couldn't help but shudder. It seemed that the guards going abroad to deliver the special medicine was the primary reason, and the rampant mosquitoes provided convenient conditions for the spread of the HZ virus!
Looking at the incense burner on his desk, General Li was deeply shaken. This was Zhang Chenjun, or rather, the mysterious man, who had indirectly saved the lives of over a billion people in Qinghua Kingdom!
Now that we know how the HZ virus spreads, we need to take action and at least control the spread!
General Manager Li instructed his secretary to notify the bigwigs to attend a meeting. During this period, the bigwigs were also trembling with fear, staying in their offices every day and not daring to go out.
After the secretary gave the order, everyone was seated in the conference room in less than five minutes. Only then did General Li walk in carrying an incense burner.
As soon as they sat down, General Li recounted what Dean Xu had said about the HZ virus, and unsurprisingly, it earned him the shocked looks of everyone.
Old Li's legs went weak when he heard this. "No way? There's no hope?"
Li Zongmengguan nodded. "Old Xu said that three hundred years ago, the HZ virus broke out in Moyou Kingdom. Only 10% of those infected survived, and they were left with lifelong neurological damage."
Seeing Old Li's restrained grief, General Li knew something was wrong. He wanted to ask, but Old Li wiped away his tears and said, "Let's get down to business first!"
Li Zongmengguan nodded. "The most important thing now is to stop the spread. According to the research data left behind when the HZ virus broke out in Moyou Kingdom three hundred years ago, it can be confirmed that the main mode of transmission of the HZ virus is mosquito-borne transmission."
As for whether there are other ways to spread the virus, to be honest, I don't know; the research institute is still studying it.
Everyone nodded, and General Li continued, "In order to prevent the HZ virus from spreading further, we need to do a lot of work."
First, there's the production and supply of mosquito repellent fragrances. The old model is no longer viable; raw materials must be collected and production accelerated in a short time.
"Old Lin, you're in charge of this. Procurement of raw materials nationwide, and then have the guards set up more production lines. This isn't a question of keeping the spice recipe a secret anymore; it's a question of whether the citizens of Qinghua can survive!"
Old Lin nodded after hearing this, "Understood!"
Then he picked up his phone, issued a few commands, and before he even left the scene, his subordinates had already started to act.
"Secondly, there's the issue of how to arrange for patients who have already developed symptoms and those who may be in the incubation period. What are your thoughts on this?" Chief Li asked.
"We still need to take good care of the patients. Although we don't have an effective treatment yet, who knows, the research institute might come up with one someday. So I think we can't give up on any of them."
"The doctors in our Qinghua Kingdom are very ethical. As long as they are diagnosed in the hospital, they will receive good care. The key issue now is that it is difficult to distinguish and identify patients in the incubation period."
The HZ virus is transmitted by mosquitoes, but no one can say for sure whether they have been bitten by a mosquito carrying the virus. Logically, the closer someone is to an infected person, the more likely they are to become infected.
"Yes, mosquitoes will definitely bite wherever they are closest, so frontline medical staff will be the first to be affected."
“Not only frontline medical staff, but also patients’ families, all treated patients’ fever as a common cold before confirming that the patients were infected with the HZ virus. Moreover, because of their kinship, most of them had been in the same room, which greatly increased the risk of infection.”
"Then we will arrange for all close contacts who may be infected to be centrally managed, and if anyone is found to have a fever, they will be sent to the hospital immediately."
As for doctors, their profession is so specialized that it's impossible to isolate them entirely.
"Then let the doctors and nurses wear protective suits, masks, and goggles. This way, they can protect themselves and others. If a doctor or nurse develops a fever, they can be hospitalized directly."
Li Cheng, the Grand Alliance official, rubbed his temples. "Su Qingshan, you're in charge of this matter. Hospitals across the country are to be shut down immediately. Several hospitals will be set aside specifically to treat HZ virus infected individuals. The families of HZ virus patients will be centrally quarantined in vacant rooms reclaimed by housing management offices in various cities. If a fever develops during the quarantine period, they will be immediately sent to a specialized hospital."
Until the HZ virus is resolved, all hospitals should try to admit only patients who require hospitalization or surgery to avoid cross-infection.
By the way, Lao Lin, please give Qingshan some more spices. Whether it's the hospital or the quarantine area, we need to make sure that mosquitoes can't get close and try our best to ensure that people who haven't been infected yet won't be bitten by mosquitoes.
The people below should operate discreetly, and try to avoid leaking information before the alliance has made its arrangements.
After saying that, General Li looked at Cui Liang Sheng and said, "Old Cui, you'll still be in charge of the media. Although we won't announce the HZ virus for now, we still need to release some information to raise everyone's awareness. You can figure out the specifics."
Once all units are ready, let's make the HZ virus information public!
Cui Liangsheng nodded, "Don't worry, we have experience and we'll handle it well."
General Li sighed. Next came the arrangements for the ports, railways, airports, highways, and other departments.
