Chapter 320 The little girl is very fierce when she gets angry
Xu Nuo saw that although the woman was fierce, her eyes couldn't help but reveal worry and anxiety.
She stepped forward and said in a gentle but firm voice, "Auntie, don't worry. We understand how you feel. The child didn't get better with the medicine he took before. Maybe it wasn't the right medicine. We have a medical team that specializes in measles prevention and treatment. From the symptoms, I'm afraid we can't wait any longer. Let me go in and take a look. Maybe I can help."
The woman opened her mouth and was about to respond when a rough voice suddenly came from the room: "What are you dawdling about for! The child is delirious and you are still chatting with people outside!"
The woman's face suddenly darkened again. She didn't bother to talk to Xu Nuo anymore and turned to run into the house.
Xu Nuo rushed into the house right after him, and the scene before her made her heart tremble—
In the dim room, on the shabby bed, the man was pinching the child's chin and forcing a bowl of black juice into his mouth.
"Bean, drink it. Drink it and your illness will be cured."
The child's face was flushed, his eyes were tightly closed, his teeth were clenched, and he refused to open his mouth. Black water flowed down the corners of his mouth.
A porcelain bowl was broken on the ground, and the traces of black medicine had not yet dried.
"Stop!" Xu Nuo rushed forward and pressed the man's arm. "This is not a cure, this is fatal!"
The man threw her away and shouted with red eyes: "What does it have to do with you?! This is a prescription!"
"What era is this? Why are we still practicing such feudal superstition?"
"What else can we do? You doctors are all useless!" The man rudely shouted at her, "Go away! Get out! This is my family's business, I will handle it myself."
"How do you solve this? Just give this to the child?" Xu Nuo was anxious and scolded him harshly, "You are playing with the child's life. This is extremely irresponsible. If you are sick, you should go to the doctor and get well with symptomatic treatment! His condition is very serious now. He has measles combined with pneumonia and may even have encephalitis.
If he gets timely treatment now, he can still save his life. If he delays any further, he will die!"
The man didn't expect that this fair and pretty girl in front of him could be so fierce when she got angry.
He was shocked by Xu Nuo's fierce momentum and froze in place for a moment.
Xu Nuo angrily snatched the bowl of black juice, leaned in to smell it, and the pungent fishy smell rushed straight to her head, making her frown.
She directly pushed the bowl in front of the man and said sternly: "Smell it yourself! This fishy and smelly thing is disgusting even to the smell. How can you pour it into a child's mouth? What kind of mess is in it? Do you dare to drink it?"
Xu Nuo was about to throw away the bowl of black soup, but the woman rushed over to grab the bowl: "Don't throw it! We paid for it!"
Xu Nuo didn't listen to her at all. He raised his hand suddenly - bang, with a crisp sound, the coarse porcelain bowl smashed to the ground, and the dark brown juice splashed on the mottled earth wall.
"Get out of the way!" Xu Nuo's voice was not loud, but it was filled with unquestionable authority. "I want to check the child's condition."
The woman saw that she was only in her early twenties, but she was so powerful. Her face changed immediately: "What kind of doctor are you? You dare to fight in other people's homes at such a young age? Get out! None of your business is yours!"
The child on the kang suddenly let out a weak groan, and his little face had already turned an abnormal color.
Xu Nuo shook off the woman's hand, and his voice suddenly rose eight octaves: "Look at the child's face! Listen to his breathing. If we delay any longer, he will have to report to the underworld!"
The last sentence was like a thunderclap, which made the couple tremble all over.
Er Zhuzi took the opportunity to explain to him: "Uncle San and Aunt San! Didn't you go to the village committee meeting yesterday? This Doctor Xu is an expert sent by the army, specializing in treating this disease!"
As he said that, he turned his head and glanced at Xiaodouzi on the bed: "We don't have any other options right now, right? Let's let Doctor Xu take a look! Wasn't Junjun from Lu Kai's family cured by Doctor Xu?"
After hearing this, the old couple stopped trying to stop them.
Xu Nuo had already examined the child skillfully, and his face did not look too good.
She put away her stethoscope and said only one sentence: "Notify the transfer team and send the child to a centralized treatment center."
"What? You want to send the baby away?" The woman immediately disagreed. "No, no! How can we send the baby away when he is so sick? We should treat him at home!"
The man was more rational than the woman at this moment. He asked, "Why do you want to take him away for treatment? Can't we just stay at home?"
"Measles is highly contagious, and it's easy for him to infect you at home. In addition, centralized management makes it easier for us to treat. I can't run around every household in the village by myself, and all my time would be wasted on the road."
Seeing that the old couple still didn't want to agree, she suppressed her anxiety and tried to slow down her speech to explain: "Doctors take turns on duty at the centralized point. All the medicines and resources used for treatment are there. If you are worried, you can leave someone to accompany you - but once you are sent there, you can't come back. This is the epidemic prevention regulation!"
"Uncle! Aunt!" Erzhuzi also advised, "If your cousin and his wife come back and find out that Xiaodouzi is in trouble, do you think they will not blame you?"
The man wiped his face fiercely and said in a hoarse voice: "Send it! Send it now!"
Xu Nuo breathed a sigh of relief and said to Er Zhuzi, "Notify the transfer team immediately and send him to the critical care unit first!"
"Okay." Erzhuzi agreed.
"Pack your things and send the child over when someone arrives," Xu Nuo said.
Erzhuzi was out for a while and then the transfer team arrived.
The transfer team brought a donkey cart, and two young and strong men helped lift Xiaodouzi onto the cart.
The neighbors all knew that the transfer team was going to take Xiaodouzi away, so they gathered around.
A few shirtless teenagers were crowded at the front, rubbing their sweaty arms against the board.
"Back off! Everyone, back off!" Xu Nuo said sternly, "This is an infectious disease, stay away from it!"
After saying this, she could even see women holding babies a few months old looking over here.
Xu Nuo couldn't help but sigh and shouted at the top of his voice: "Don't stand by and watch. If you have children at home and haven't been infected, take your children to the village branch's epidemic prevention point to get vaccinated!"
It was midsummer in August and the air was sultry. After a busy day's work, Xu Nuo's clothes were wet and dry, dry and wet again.
This is not the most uncomfortable thing. The uncomfortable thing is that she was busy all day and had no time to drink water or eat.
There are 2,000 households in the village, and after a whole day of work, they have only checked less than a quarter of them.
Finally, the sun was setting. She casually shoveled a mouthful of rice and hurried to the elementary school.
Fortunately, the two places are not too far away from each other, otherwise, this day would be really tiring.
After finishing the work of the disinfection team, Jin Yue stayed at the centralized treatment point in the primary school, dispensing medicine and treating patients according to the doctor's instructions Xu Nuo gave them.
The vaccine work that Zhou Lingfu was responsible for was only done in the morning. After completing the morning task, she went to the treatment center in the afternoon to work with Jin Yue.
There are more than fifty seriously ill children gathered here. The two people are busy like spinning tops, giving the children medicine, injections, and intravenous drips.
Such a heavy workload meant that the two of them didn't even have time to drink water.
Even with such seriousness, he still got into trouble.
When Xu Nuo arrived hurriedly, he heard bursts of fierce quarrels and children crying coming from one of the rooms.
