Seeing the three generations of the family hanging their heads in regret, Xu Manman twitched her lips. "Can't you bear this?" There will be many more disappointments in the future.
Ever since Xu Manman got Jay Chou's third album, she has been paying attention to the developments of infectious diseases such as influenza in coastal areas.
At the same time, in cooperation with Caleb at home and abroad, the pharmaceutical companies under the two groups are still producing in large quantities and stockpiling protective and disinfection supplies.
After the election of the First Plenary Session of the 19th Central Committee of the Communist Party of China, the first SARS case that Xu Manman had been waiting for for a long time was discovered in Foshan.
I immediately called my family and said, "The temperature has dropped recently, and there are more people catching colds. I heard there's also some viral flu, so I don't want to go out for the time being."
It mainly talks about Xu Jianbing's family in Yangcheng, as well as the group of retired old men and women who have nothing to do and always want to go out and play.
Xu Manman simply brought everyone back to Beijing. Although the spread of the news in the capital was quite large, their yard was bigger.
Although the courtyards on both sides combined are not as big as the Ning and Rong mansions in the Dream of the Red Chamber, they are not much worse than the Grand View Garden, so even if you stay at home, you won’t feel too bored.
Besides, my younger brother's family is also in Beijing, and the elders are old. I really can't feel at ease if I don't keep an eye on Xu Manman personally.
In addition to bringing the people back, Xu Manman also sent disinfection and epidemic prevention supplies to each household.
Xu Jianguo didn't quite understand. There were many people catching colds every day. Was it really necessary to make such a big fuss?
Xu Manman pulled the article out from the corner of the newspaper and pointed it at him. "This viral cold is highly contagious. Adults have good immunity and can get over it, but what about the elderly and children?"
Although Xu Jianguo still felt that his sister was a little too nervous, he had no choice but to do as his sister said.
The solution to SARS was not that quick, but once the first case occurred, the second and third cases would soon appear.
Although she knew it was still too early for a full-scale outbreak, Xu Manman still felt a little uneasy.
In her previous life, she experienced SARS as a child and COVID-19 as an adult. This highly contagious and destructive respiratory disease has a high mortality rate.
Anyone who has experienced that time will not underestimate it.
Xu Manman was not in a good mood this year.
By the end of the first month of the lunar year, Xu Manman could no longer hold it in. Before the situation escalated, she and Jin Zichu submitted a report to the Ministry of Health.
In fact, the higher-ups have also noticed the unusualness of this incident, but they are afraid of causing panic among the people, so they are currently only controlling it on a small scale.
"There are already a large number of confirmed cases overseas. This flu is highly contagious and has a high mortality rate. I purchased some medical supplies before the New Year. Could you please list the hospitals that are short on supplies? I'll arrange for them to be delivered directly to them."
"Okay, okay, I'll arrange it right away. Mr. Jin, Professor Xu, you've been so helpful this time. On behalf of the medical staff on the front lines, I want to thank you."
After sending the supplies out, Xu Manman felt a little relieved, and when she returned home she did not forget to emphasize this again to her family.
"I've stocked up on food and drink, and I have a vegetable garden and a pond at home. I'd better stay at home if I can."
In fact, it would be best to keep everyone who works or goes to school at home, but not only did the person concerned disagree, several elders also thought Xu Manman was exaggerating.
Xu Lei's face was stern. "How could it be so? We all said back then that we would not leave the front line even with minor injuries. Now that nothing has happened, you're already stopping work and going home? No way, I don't agree!"
If you don't leave the front line even though you are only slightly injured, it will be too late when you are really injured.
But as long as the official side did not issue a notice, no one would realize the seriousness of the problem, and Xu Manman failed to convince everyone even after she put the gold into the initial stage.
We can only test everyone once every morning and evening and do a good job of disinfection and epidemic prevention at home.
In April, SARS broke out worldwide, and the number of suspected cases in Beijing alone increased from single digits to hundreds.
In mid-April, the Beijing Municipal SARS Prevention and Control Working Group formally established the "Epidemic Investigation Team Command Center" and set up a designated hospital to treat SARS patients.
A notice was also issued that all hospitals, factories, construction sites, restaurants, office buildings, residential areas and schools contaminated by SARS had taken isolation measures.
Colleges and universities are closed and primary and secondary schools are suspended.
Fortunately, this time Xu Jianguo did not refuse to obey. He listened to his sister and asked for leave in advance with Chen Ming. He was not locked up in the school, and even brought his wife and children back in advance.
