Chapter 909 Too Many Patients
Things finally developed in the direction that Fu Zhaoning was worried about.
Because these patients need strong medications, those who have come into contact with them are also panicking and need medication for prevention, so their medicines have been flowing like water in the past two days.
Perhaps it was because the panic and previous physical fatigue and hunger had accumulated to a certain point, and many people fell ill in the past two days.
There were even a few patients today who suffered from severe diarrhea.
There is one area of resettlement of disaster victims that can be very troublesome if not handled properly, and that is the issue of settling their personal affairs.
There are too many people. A few days ago, when An Nian and his team went to patrol, they found quite a few people who didn't pay attention at all and just squatted down in a corner to do their job.
Later, Fu Zhaoning said that we should pay attention to this kind of thing because it can also be a way of spreading disease.
If it weren't for Fu Zhaoning, Prefect You and An Nian would not have thought that there are so many things to pay attention to in places where people gather.
It's not about taking people in and just cooking them some porridge to keep them alive.
Because the apprentice doctor was unable to treat those patients with severe diarrhea, Fu Zhaoning came out from the west wing.
Came out fully armed.
Although her body's resistance has been verified in the first round in the past few days and she is not infected, she still cannot be careless.
She used a curtain to separate herself from the patients, and made a hole in the middle so that the patients could stretch their hands over to feel their pulse. She then observed their complexions from a distance, and diagnosed them by touching them through their clothes, and treated those patients with diarrhea.
Among them was a middle-aged man who said he had defecated six times today.
I didn't eat much to begin with, and now I'm going to poop it all out. I'm already a little dehydrated.
Fu Zhaoning asked them to prepare sugar and salt water, and everyone who came quickly drank a bowl.
Sugar and salt are also precious nowadays. When patients come, they are given these to drink. They all say that Doctor Fu is simply a fairy.
Some people said before that Dr. Fu was just pretending. Now, if they had the strength, they would definitely drag those people out and beat them up.
Have you ever seen anyone use sugar and salt to pretend?
It had been a long time since they had drunk such a bowl of tasty water.
Although it's a bit weird to mix sugar and salt.
But who cares!
Fu Zhaoning asked them carefully what they had eaten, but they really didn't eat anything. Who had anything to eat?
I don't know why I had diarrhea.
Staying in a place with so many people crowded together for a few days, it was too easy for the virus to be cross-infected. Fu Zhaoning could only sigh.
"I'll write a prescription and boil some more medicine. Someone might pass it on. If their symptoms are the same as these people, let them take the medicine. If you have different symptoms, come back to me."
Fu Zhaoning taught Fu Jinchen and the three medical apprentices.
"Yes, Doctor Fu."
Fu Jinchen also followed them and called out "Doctor Fu" seriously.
"Doctor Fu, there is an elderly man here who fell and now complains of back pain." Xiaoyue shouted from the other side.
Someone helped an old man in.
This kind of disease cannot be cured even by a doctor's apprentice.
Fu Zhaoning didn't even have time to rest for a moment before he changed his gloves and hurried over.
Dong Huanzhi took out the medicine and saw her figure. He said to Fu Jinchen, "Have you noticed that Junior Sister has lost weight?"
It’s been almost twenty days, and Fu Zhaoning has obviously lost weight.
Fu Jinchen hummed.
It was hard to hide his heartache, but there was nothing he could do.
They don’t have anything good to eat now. They can’t keep from getting hungry every day, but there is nothing good to eat. And the work is so intensive, how can they not be tired and lose weight?
However, all of them had complained about how hard it was and how tired they were several times, but Fu Zhaoning had never complained.
She remained calm the whole time, constantly writing and revising prescriptions. If some medicinal ingredients were missing, she would immediately find a way to replace them with other ingredients and revise the prescription.
This cannot be changed casually. It requires an astonishing reserve of medicinal materials and pharmacological properties. If you want to change one medicine, the other herbs must also be able to match it. It is a very time-consuming task.
Also, she has to take time out these two days to give acupuncture to other patients.
She memorized the symptoms and characteristics of almost all the patients in her mind, so she would know what was going on just by mentioning any one of them.
Everyone here admires her very much.
The same goes for the ten disaster victims including Ah He who came to help.
In the past few days, their family members have also volunteered to help.
Ahe's wife also helps take care of young children like Xiaoya.
Xiaofeng recovered very quickly and now does what he can every day. For example, for some critically ill patients who have to stay here, he helps remember the time to change the dressing and the time to take medicine. Sometimes the three medical apprentices and Xiaoyue can't remember so much or are too busy to take care of it, so he helps to call out.
The person he sends most often is his younger sister Xiaoya.
This makeshift clinic is now very united, and everyone is working hard and actively helping.
However, there are now five or six more people living in the west wing.
The room where Aunt Niu is staying is now full and there are not enough beds. Fu Zhaoning originally wanted to arrange Aunt Niu and another female patient to stay in Princess Fuyun's room, which just happened to be separated into male and female areas.
But Chenxiang refused to agree.
Chenxiang has been seriously ill these days, coughing violently every day, but he still managed to stand at the door and stare at Fu Zhaoning.
"It's already unfair for our eldest princess to live in a servant's room like this. Now we have to let her live with the disaster victims? Doctor Fu, don't you think this is too bullying?"
Fu Zhaoning wanted to say something, but Aunt Niu and the female patient backed off first when they heard that the person here was a princess.
"Doctor Fu, let's stay here——"
They were referring to the room where Fu Zhaoning was resting.
"There are no extra beds in this room, only one," said Fu Zhaoning.
"Then I'll squeeze in with Aunt Niu?"
After several days of treatment, Aunt Niu's condition had obviously improved, thanks to Fu Zhaoning's continuous infusions and injections.
These two days she can also help Fu Zhaoning take care of other infected patients.
"What about me?"
Fu Zhaoning said helplessly.
Aunt Niu was stunned. "Then, Doctor Fu lives next to the eldest princess. They can't refuse, right?"
Fu Zhaoning slapped his forehead.
Indeed, she was too tired and her mind couldn't think straight.
She turned around and looked at Chenxiang, "Is there a problem with me moving in?"
Chenxiang opened his mouth, not knowing what to say for a moment.
Given Fu Zhaoning's identity, what else could she say to object?
She was so angry that she coughed violently again.
Princess Fuyun's cough was also heard in the room.
Princess Fuyun never imagined that she, who had always been so lucky, would be sick for so long and so seriously ill this time.
Where exactly was her turning point?
Fu Zhaoning had just settled the patient, but outside, a few more patients were being brought in.
"Someone else has been infected." Fu Jinchen's face changed.
