"It's okay. I know what I'm doing."
Zhong Yuxiu lay down again after she finished speaking. Yan Rushan got into the cup and held her in his arms. "Wife, be careful when giving medicine to patients."
"I got it. Go to sleep. I'll be fine." When faced with possible infection, she would use her mental strength to protect herself and prevent the virus from getting close to her.
Yan Rushan was very nervous, but he didn't show it on his face. They didn't say anything that night. When he woke up the next day, it was already past nine o'clock. After packing up, he had breakfast first. Then Yan Rushan drove them to the Medical Research Institute to get the medicine, and then transferred them to the military hospital.
It was already eleven o'clock when they arrived at the military hospital. After parking the car, everyone got out. They saw two people in guard uniforms standing at the hospital entrance. Upon closer inspection, they found that they were the two people beside Xi Nian.
"Comrade Zhong, Comrade Yan, you're finally here. Director Feng and Comrade Xi Nian from the Military Region Hospital, as well as several other experts and professors, have been waiting for a long time."
One of the guards opened his mouth and explained the situation inside.
"Thank you." Zhong Yuxiu nodded slightly, then turned to look at Yan Rushan, "Rushan, you should go to work first."
"Okay, I'll pick you up in the evening." Yan Rushan nodded and looked at the two guards while saying this.
The two guards hurriedly said, "Comrade Yan, you don't need to come tonight. Comrade Zhong must stay in the hospital until the clinical trial results come out. The hospital has already arranged accommodations for Comrade Zhong. Comrade Xi Nian has explained that there is an incubation period after contact with infectious patients. In addition, we will ask Comrade Zhong questions from time to time during the clinical period, and it is most convenient to stay in the hospital."
"We apologize for any inconvenience this may have caused to your family." These were the exact words.
The three children are still young and will definitely come looking for their mother, and they need to be fully prepared for the clinical trials; they cannot be delayed by other matters. Once the results are found, the vaccine and special medicine will be accelerated for production and distribution to various provinces. This is a huge project. Now that the special medicine and vaccine are already available, it is natural to confirm their efficacy as soon as possible.
Watching them enter the hospital, Yan Rushan sighed helplessly. It would be many days since he would see his wife again. His sons would probably make a big fuss. However, he couldn't just go to the hospital casually. His sons were young and not as healthy as adults.
"Comrade Zhong, please come in." The guard took the person to the outside of the dean's office. The door of the office was wide open. There were several people sitting inside. The oldest among them had gray hair, and the youngest was in his early forties.
Xi Nian is one of the young people there.
"Comrade Zhong is here. I'm so glad to see you." Xi Nian stood up and walked forward, welcoming her into the office. "Everyone, this is Comrade Zhong Yuxiu, the person who developed the effective drug and vaccine for hepatitis B. She's in her early twenties."
The director of the military hospital had seen Zhong Yuxiu before, so he was not surprised; the other people were really shocked. One of them, a middle-aged man in a white coat, asked in a daze.
"She's the one who developed the repair fluid?"
Who among those sitting here is not of high status? Many of them are big names in the medical field.
But these big guys had never seen Zhong Yuxiu. They had only heard of her name but had never seen her in person. When they saw her today, they were shocked.
"Yes." Xi Nian stepped aside and introduced them. "Comrade Zhong, this is the director of the military hospital, Zhong Yangshan. These three are famous doctors in the field of traditional Chinese medicine, Mr. Lai Heng, Mr. Guan Yuxing, and Mr. Che Ziting."
"The person next to me has become quite famous in the field of Traditional Chinese Medicine recently. His last name is Fu Chenghui."
"I don't deserve it, I don't deserve it. Comrade Zhong Yuxiu is still my predecessor. Hello, Comrade Zhong, my name is Fu Chenghui. Thanks to you, I was inspired by the repair fluid and made a great breakthrough in my project."
Zhong Yuxiu was puzzled. She didn't know much about the outside world, and her knowledge of traditional Chinese medicine was limited to what she heard from her master.
Xi Nian explained, "Comrade Fu Chenghui was inspired by the repair fluid you developed. The human cell regeneration project, which hadn't made any progress for years, has made a breakthrough. Results should be coming soon."
"The results are almost there, and all that's left is the final finishing and organizing of the data. I didn't want to come out at first, but when I heard that you were coming, I ran here." Comrade Fu Chenghui has a square face with traces of time on his face, but he can't blame his good mentality. He looks like a man in his early thirties even though he is in his forties.
"Hello." Zhong Yuxiu smiled.
Fu Chenghui grinned happily. Zhong Yuxiu nodded at him and then greeted the dean and several leaders in the field of traditional Chinese medicine, "Hello everyone."
"Hello, Comrade Zhong," Dean Zhong said. "I heard you've developed a new drug."
Zhong Yuxiu nodded slightly, "Yes, there is a new drug, but we don't know its efficacy yet."
"It's okay, let's go to the clinic first. The patient is waiting." Dean Zhong stood up to invite him. Zhong Yuxiu smiled and nodded to him, and they walked out of the office together. They were accompanied by four Chinese medicine practitioners, Xi Nian, two guards, Gu Lingguo, Fang Guozhong and others.
Dean Zhong led them through the corridor and came to a relatively secluded small building. The building could not be said to be very good, but it was definitely not bad; it was just an old building, and was a bit inferior to the inpatient department and outpatient department that were rebuilt later.
Along the way to the second floor, there were many people walking hurriedly in radiation-proof suits.
"What's the situation of the patients in this building?" The nurses in this building seemed very busy, much busier than the nurses in other buildings, and were in a hurry. When they saw Dean Zhong, they just greeted him and went about their own business. Some nurses from the building they passed by stopped to greet Dean Zhong and several elderly people, and left only after they left.
The difference becomes apparent after a comparison.
"They are all infectious patients. Fortunately, other hospitals help share some of the burden. If they were all sent here, this building would definitely not be able to accommodate them." This old building has a total of five floors. It was a very good building in the 1960s and 1970s. Now it looks really old, but it has a sense of age.
“Are there many infectious patients?”
"Quite a few. Some are cured and discharged, but then new cases come in. This building has never been empty. Nurses and doctors have to wear radiation-proof suits to work, and disinfect them before changing out at the end of the day, for fear of bringing the virus with them." Dean Zhong sighed helplessly. "Wasn't there a flu outbreak a while ago? The hospital was so overcrowded back then that they even moved a building out. Other hospitals are in similar situations. Although the flu is over, there's still no effective treatment for other cases."
These patients can only receive conventional treatment and cannot be cured.
Zhong Yuxiu didn't say anything, but she took all the words in. Xi Nian observed Zhong Yuxiu's face, seeing her deep in thought, and felt a little expectant. Knowing that there were so many patients in the hospital, she probably wouldn't be thinking about taking a vacation, right?
Dean Zhong took them to a room where the radiation-proof suits were kept and found suitable ones for them. "These suits were only delivered yesterday, and there aren't many of them. They're enough for a few of us. Right now, you can't just pick up the radiation-proof suits at will; they're all set."
