Chapter 250 Abnormal Radiation Value
The sudden quarantine and lockdown, and the fact that it was a carcinogenic virus, made the medical staff, patients and their families at the Qi Yue Medical Research Center somewhat panic-stricken.
Especially the forty or fifty people from Qidong Medical Research Institute who came for physical examinations and were temporarily isolated in the central building were in an uproar and felt uneasy.
They are all victims.
Fortunately, the hospital sent several psychological counselors and medical staff to calm the patient down.
Qi Yue also directed the medical staff of the center to comfort the patients, and at the same time released empty wards, examination rooms, treatment rooms, etc. for the people in the institute to stay and rest.
Twenty to thirty beds were urgently placed in the lobby and corridors on the first floor of the center's small building to serve as temporary resting places for quarantined personnel at night.
As for the five people from the research institute who were diagnosed with suspected cancer by Yu Zhiming, they were put in sealed protective suits and cautiously taken to the infectious disease department of the hospital for in-depth virus testing.
After an hour or two of such chaos, order and quiet were finally restored to the central building.
Yu Zhiming, who was busy following Teacher Qi Yue to calm people down, returned to his workstation in the large office and sat down. Immediately, deep fatigue came over him like a tide.
I didn't get a good rest last night, and today I was busy non-stop from 8:30 in the morning until nearly 9 o'clock in the evening.
More than twelve hours of high-intensity work, coupled with mental tension and pressure, really made him physically and mentally exhausted, and he didn't want to move a finger.
Because the incident happened after get off work in the evening, except for Qi Yue and Yu Zhiming, only Dr. Xie Jianmin was still in the center among the regular doctors.
Now, Dr. Xie has been assigned by Director Qi to the ward area, and is on duty with several residents and interns.
As for Qi Yue, who arranged all the work, he went to the center's laboratory to study the possible causes of cancer.
In the big office now, besides Zhou Mo who is guarding here, there are only Yu Zhiming and Qiao Lei who came back with him.
"Doctor Yu, have a glass of milk first!"
"Thanks!"
Yu Zhiming thanked him, forced himself to stay awake, and took the glass of milk handed to him by Zhou Mo.
When his hand touched the cup, Yu Zhiming felt the warmth.
After drinking it all in one gulp, the warm milk entered his stomach and intestines, and Yu Zhiming felt a lot more comfortable.
Zhou Mo placed a fairly substantial dinner in several small porcelain bowls on Yu Zhiming's desk.
"Doctor Yu, please eat something."
Zhou Mo explained softly, "This is the lunch box sent in by the hospital. Everyone gets one. I heated yours in my own lunch bowl in the microwave."
As for Qiao Lei, he did not enjoy this considerate service. He took a cold lunch box and ate it with grunts.
Fortunately, the weather is still quite hot now, so even though cold food tastes a bit bad, I can still eat it.
Yu Zhiming thanked Zhou Mo for his thoughtfulness again, picked up his chopsticks and started eating.
He was tired and had no appetite at first, but after eating a few bites, he gradually regained his appetite.
He has been busy since noon, and his body is honest. He is really hungry and needs to replenish energy.
After Yu Zhiming finished his meal, Qiao Lei came over to clean up the mess and took the initiative to go to the washroom at the other end of the corridor with the dishes to wash them.
After eating and drinking his fill, Yu Zhiming lazily slumped in his chair and looked at Zhou Mo who was nearby.
"Are you still scared?"
Zhou Mo shook his head, exerted a little force with his feet, and moved both himself and the chair towards Yu Zhiming.
"I'm not afraid anymore. As you said before, Doctor Yu, the possibility of it being a virus is extremely small."
Zhou Mo chuckled again and said, "Even if it really is an unknown carcinogenic virus, only one out of ten people will be found. I'm strong and young, so the possibility of me being infected is very small."
"So, there's no need to scare yourself."
Yu Zhiming smiled gently.
Although only five of the fifty people have been diagnosed so far, more people may develop cancer as time goes by.
The detection rate may be greatly improved.
Zhou Mo didn't expect this, and Yu Zhiming wouldn't be so foolish as to remind her and make her more nervous.
At this moment, Zhou Mo's voice rang in his ears again, "Hey, Doctor Yu, what did you say to Sister Xiang Wan?"
Yu Zhiming casually replied, "They said there's an emergency patient who needs to be treated, so I probably won't be able to go back tonight."
"As a doctor, it's easy to find excuses."
"Zhou Mo, what about you? How did you tell your mother?"
Yu Zhiming lied because the current situation was unclear and he didn't want to worry his family. Everyone quarantined in the center had already been seriously warned and warned...
Do not leak information at will, and do not exaggerate.
This is not entirely a blockade of information. The main concern is that unknown information will be spread to the public and used by some people to add fuel to the fire and cause unnecessary panic.
Zhou Mo chuckled and said, "I told my mom that I want to follow you, Doctor Yu, and Qiao Lei to the suburbs for a medical consultation."
"The journey is quite long. I guess I won't be back until very late. Maybe I won't be back at all."
"The director testified, so my mother believed it."
Yu Zhiming couldn't help but say happily, "You run around with me like this, isn't your mother worried at all?"
Zhou Mo chuckled and said with a guilty conscience, "My mother trusts you, Doctor Yu, so she won't worry."
She would never tell Yu Zhiming.
After her previous efforts, in her mother's opinion, Yu Zhiming has successfully become a paranoid who is obsessed with medicine, has no interest in girls and is a mentally twisted pervert.
So, now her mother is really not worried at all about her being with Yu Zhiming.
Yu Zhiming naturally didn't believe Zhou Mo's words, but he didn't continue to ask about it.
At this time, Qiao Lei came back with the washed dishes.
He handed the dishes and chopsticks to Zhou Mo, and dragged his chair over and sat down.
"Doctor Yu, should we take some medicine to improve our immunity, like antibiotics or something, as a preventative measure?"
Yu Zhiming glanced at him and said with disdain, "How did you go to medical school?"
"Medicine is not a health supplement or a nutritional supplement. Can you take it casually?"
"I'm absolutely certain it's not the virus. Don't worry about it. You're just scaring yourself."
After putting the dishes away, Zhou Mo pulled his chair closer to Yu Zhiming and sat down again.
"Qiao Lei, are you so afraid of death?"
Qiao Lei's pride was stung, and he defended himself, "I'm not afraid of death, I'm just being cautious."
"If I faced a criminal, I would definitely face him without fear. But when it comes to this invisible and intangible virus, I feel a sense of helplessness and fear."
Zhou Mo concluded: "In the final analysis, it's still the fear of death!"
Without waiting for Qiao Lei to explain, she changed the subject and said, "We have to stay up all night, shall we do something?"
"Let's play some games to relax?"
Yu Zhiming was in a depressed mood and had no mood to play games.
He suggested, "You two should take a rest. This way time will pass quickly and it will be dawn soon after you have a good sleep."
"Zhou Mo, you can go to the director's office to rest. My director and I need to be on duty and can't sleep."
Zhou Mo shook his head and said, "It's still early. Besides, I'm in no mood to sleep. I'd better stay with you."
She also noticed Yu Zhiming's fatigue, which he couldn't hide, and advised him, "Doctor Yu, you've been tired all day too."
"Go lie down on the sofa in the director's office first. If anything happens, we'll call you."
Yu Zhiming refused: "I can't fall asleep even if I lie down, so I might as well stay up all night like this."
At this time, a staff member wearing protective clothing walked into the large office and handed Yu Zhiming a large bag of snacks.
"Doctor Yu, this was sent by Doctor Bao Guan. He said that time flies when you eat snacks."
Bao Guan’s act of sending snacks was just the beginning.
Over the next hour, Dr. Cui Zhitan, Dr. Wang Jiangyue, Dr. Ding Ye, Secretary He Yingjun, and Academician Tan Ying, among others, either personally or had their assistants deliver food and drinks to express their condolences.
With so many people expressing their condolences, Yu Zhiming realized that the news had already spread within the hospital.
He took out his cell phone and didn't see any missed calls from Fourth Sister and Qing Ning, so he knew that the news had not spread outside.
Qiao Lei took a big bite of the apple and said vaguely, "Even if there really is a problem, I won't worry about it."
"With such people, especially with you, Doctor Yu, the country will definitely gather relevant medical experts to tackle this problem."
"Our country has always been good at concentrating its resources on major and urgent matters, and has never let the people down."
Qiao Lei's words were met with glares from Yu Zhiming and Zhou Mo.
At this time, a nurse ran in.
"Doctor Yu, the pregnant woman at the research institute has persistent abdominal pain and is bleeding a lot."
"Doctor Xie said the baby can't be saved."
This pregnant woman from the research institute was only seven weeks pregnant. When Yu Zhiming examined her, he found that the development of the fetus was very worrying.
After confirming her isolation, Yu Zhiming asked the nurse to arrange a bed for her and give her an IV drip of pregnancy-preserving drugs.
I didn't expect something to go wrong so soon.
Yu Zhiming followed the nurse to the pregnant woman's ward and found that Teacher Qi Yue was also there.
Yu Zhiming went forward to examine the pregnant woman who was crying and confirmed that the baby had been aborted.
He understood that in addition to the child's own weak development, the pregnant woman's excessive mental stress tonight was also a contributing factor...
Yu Zhiming followed Teacher Qi out of the ward and asked quietly, "Teacher, what about the fetus?"
Qi Yue understood Yu Zhiming's implication and replied softly, "I will send it to the expert group for analysis and research as soon as possible."
"Such a small fetus is most sensitive to stimulation, and there is a high probability that we can find the problem from it."
After eleven o'clock in the evening, Yu Zhiming finally received definite news.
When the expert group conducted a comprehensive inspection at the Qidong Medical Research Institute, they found abnormal radiation levels in its restaurant.
The radiation level exceeded the normal value by more than 200 times...
