Another half month passed.

Shen Ruoqing found that there were many fewer classmates in the class.

Tao Tao said: "I don't know what happened recently, everyone has a cold and a fever, and many people have asked for leave."

"Is it the flu?" Shen Ruoqing thought for a moment and took out a mask for Tao Tao, "Put this on. If it is the flu, it can prevent others from infecting you."

"Okay, thank you Ruoqing." Tao Tao put on the mask obediently.

After returning home, Shen Ruoqing distributed masks to everyone in the family.

"People in the county have had fever recently. Wearing masks can help prevent the disease," said Shen Ruoqing.

"Indeed, many people in our factory have also asked for leave."

When Shen Ruoqing delivered a mask to Wen Jiao, he found that Wen Jiao did not respond no matter how he knocked on the door.

"Sister Wen? Sister Wen, are you there? I'm here to bring you a mask." After calling for a long time, no one answered. Shen Ruoqing could vaguely hear the crying of a child, so she pushed the door open directly.

Wen Jiao was lying on the bed with a pale face, and Wen Yao beside her was crying so hard that she was out of breath.

"Fourth Brother, Fourth Sister-in-law, come and take a look! Sister Wen is sick!"

Finally, Su Jieru, Shen Xiangbei and Shen Ruoqing sent Wen Jiao to the county hospital together.

Unexpectedly, the county hospital was overcrowded, the outpatient department couldn't see enough patients, and the queues were very long. While waiting in line, Shen Ruoqing found that many people had high fevers.

Shen Ruoqing went to the emergency room and waited in line for a long time.

"What's going on?"

"Doctor, please take a look at my sister. I suspect she has hemorrhagic fever and is in shock. She needs intravenous drip of dexamethasone," Shen Ruoqing said.

Just now, Shen Ruoqing had tried to feed Wen Jiao spiritual spring water, but it didn't go in.

The doctor glanced at Shen Ruoqing and asked, "How do you know it's hemorrhagic fever?"

Shen Ruoqing pursed her lips and said, "My sister has symptoms such as low blood pressure and pale face. In addition, many people have fever during this period. I am just guessing. Doctor, you should check my sister quickly. My sister is still in a coma."

The doctor wrote a few test orders and said, "There are not enough rooms now. We can only add an extra bed in the corridor. Go and pay the fee first."

After a lot of investigation, it turned out to be hemorrhagic fever.

This made Shen Ruoqing feel heavy.

Hemorrhagic fever with renal syndrome (HFRS) is a naturally occurring hemorrhagic fever caused by hantavirus (HV) of the Bunyaviridae family.

Generally, this kind of virus spreads over a large area. Looking at the doctor's expression, you can tell that he is not the first to receive a patient like Wen Jiao. The corridors of the hospital are full of such patients.

When Wen Jiao woke up, she found Shen Ruoqing and Su Jieru guarding her. She was so moved that tears came to her eyes.

"Sister Wen, you were not feeling well. You should have told me earlier. Where is the lady who lived with you? Where did she go? If I hadn't found you in time, you don't know how long you would have been unconscious." Shen Ruoqing asked.

"You mean that elder sister? Something happened in her hometown, so I gave her a few days off. I just thought she would be fine after lying down for two days, but I didn't expect it to be so serious this time... Fortunately, you are here. By the way, where is my daughter? Where is my daughter?"

"My wife took it away. This is the porridge I got from the cafeteria. You can have some." Su Jieru said.

"Ruoqing, you're here?" After Fan Yanli knew that Shen Ruoqing was here, she took the time to come and see her.

"Yanli, why are you here? Shouldn't you be busy at this time?"

"Don't mention it. I'm so busy. I was just thinking of asking you to come to the hospital to help for a few days. I, a nurse from the surgical department, have been transferred to the infectious disease department. Let me tell you, this infectious disease is very serious. There are infected patients everywhere..."

Fan Yanli chatted with Shen Ruoqing for a few words, then slapped her head and said, "I'm not here to chat with you, I'm here to ask you for help. Come with me quickly, I don't have enough manpower over there."

Just like that, Shen Ruoqing clearly brought Wen Jiao to see a doctor, but ended up coming to the hospital to help.

After being busy for several hours and finally having a break, some family members started making trouble again.

"What? What do you mean there is no medicine? Isn't this a hospital? How can a hospital be without medicine? Since you are a hospital, you are responsible for curing my wife! Where is your director? I want to find your director to complain about you!"

"Family member of the patient, please don't get emotional. Although there is no medicine now, the hospital has prescribed bitter melon and mung beans, which can also relieve the symptoms to a certain extent..."

"Your hospital is trying to deceive me. What good are bitter melon and mung beans? What we want is medicine, medicine that can cure the disease!"

Fan Yanli said with a sullen face: "Someone is making trouble again."

Shen Ruoqing asked: "Is there not enough medicine?"

Fan Yanli said, "Yes, there is not enough medicine. Our hospital has already applied to the provincial capital hospital for medicine transfer, but I heard that there is also an outbreak in the provincial capital, and they don't have enough medicine, so how can they transfer extra medicine?"

"Salvia miltiorrhiza and Astragalus membranaceus should also be able to treat it, right?"

"Even Danshen and Huangqi are not enough. The hospital is short of medicine. I am so annoyed. This is not the first family member to make a fuss. You don't know how outrageous the prices of Danshen and Huangqi are now! Danshen used to be 80 cents per pound, and Huangqi was 45 cents per pound. Now the price is several yuan per ounce! Tell me if it's outrageous! Ruoqing, the hospital is really short of people during this period. Why don't you take a few days off from school and come to the hospital to help out for a few days? Please, Ruoqing, please come and help me. I'm going crazy with work."

Shen Ruoqing shook his head: "Although I can't come to help you, but I may be able to contact a batch of Danshen and Astragalus to supply the hospital."

Fan Yanli's eyes lit up: "Are you telling the truth? If so, you have really helped the county hospital a lot!"

When I returned to Wen Jiao's bedside, I found that Wen Jiao was drinking mung bean soup.

"Ruoqing, have you ever interned in the county hospital before? Do you know any doctors? Why don't you go talk to the doctor and ask him to prescribe some medicine? I saw mung bean soup was written on the prescription of this hospital. Do you think this is reasonable? And they only prescribed mung bean soup, but it only cost one dollar. Isn't this a rip-off?" Su Jieru said angrily, pointing at the prescription.

"Are you new here?" Before Shen Ruoqing could say anything, a patient on the bed next to him in the corridor spoke up.

"Yes, comrade, are you also ill?"

A fellow patient spoke up: "This is the whole floor, who isn't like this? This hospital is out of medicine, and it's good enough that they can prescribe mung bean soup. The price of mung beans is extremely expensive now, and this one dollar for mung bean soup is really not expensive."

Shen Ruoqing asked, "Have mung beans even gone up in price now?"

"Yes, the prices of bitter melon, mung beans, and winter melon have all gone up recently. There is no medicine, so we can only eat these things to stabilize the condition. It's good enough that I can prescribe mung bean soup for you. Some people can't even get it."
