Xia Tian looked at the environment of the quarantine point in the north of the city and frowned constantly.
In this kind of environment, good people would get sick if they moved in, let alone those who were already infected with cholera.
There was no place for them to live in this place either.
Shen Nian simply asked the soldiers he brought to set up a few tents in an open area near the quarantine point.
Xiatian put things in place, took out masks and asked everyone to wear them. She changed into the specially prepared clothes and asked Ningxue and Cuiyun to wear the specially prepared clothes as well so that they could be changed easily.
I took the medicine kit and went to the quarantine point.
Shen Nian asked the soldiers to set up the big pot they brought and prepare to boil the medicine.
People have already built a stove at the resettlement site, because they also have to cook for these patients, so there is no need to build a temporary stove.
Xia Tian began to boil the medicine according to the quantity and proportion instructed by Lord Lin.
There are currently 56 patients in this isolation point, and there are doctors recruited to take care of these patients, as well as family members of patients who have come forward to help.
There are seventy people in total.
This is what Shen Nian asked the official in charge of guarding the quarantine point just now.
The pot was quite large, so three pots were used for boiling water at the same time. Xia Tian put five packets of medicine in each pot as instructed by Lord Lin.
I wanted to add water according to the proportion, but seeing that there were so many people, I just filled it up and boiled it. She was going to add spiritual spring water anyway.
Boiling medicine is just a cover.
It was time to wait. Xia Tian arranged three soldiers to watch the fire, while he and Shen Nian took the people inside and some soldiers to clean up the isolation point.
The doctors and family members who helped at the quarantine point were naturally very cooperative when they saw that the court had actually sent people to treat them and was no longer leaving them here to fend for themselves.
Xia Tian does whatever he tells him to do.
Seeing that these people had only straw under them, even Shen Nian couldn't bear to watch.
He summoned the official in charge and asked him, "What's going on? Didn't the court allocate money?"
"Alas, sir, the little money allocated by the court is not enough. We have to pay for their daily food and drink, and we also have to hire people to take care of them.
It's already very difficult for me to find a place like this to house them, so how can I afford to give them a good place to live and warm clothes? "
When the official heard Shen Nian ask him, he immediately started complaining, as if he was the one suffering.
Shen Nian's brows furrowed when he heard it.
I didn't continue to argue with this official.
He turned around and told Mu Feng to buy some mattresses.
As for whether the court has allocated funds and how much is allocated, it is not his business. Once the expenses here are figured out, he can just make a list and go to the emperor.
There's no need to waste time talking to a low-level official like him.
After the medicine was ready, Xia Tian brought the doctors and family members, as well as Ningxue and Cuiyun, to deliver the medicine to the patients.
Some people cannot take medicine by themselves and need to be helped to take it.
Chen Nian is mainly in charge of the men's side, while Xia Tian brings people to deliver medicine for the women and children.
After the patient finished eating, he asked everyone who helped him to drink a bowl as well.
The first day passed like this.
The next day, more than a dozen infected people were sent over.
There are already too many people in this quarantine point, and they are living in a crowded place. Infected people are constantly being sent here.
She felt that this was not a solution.
If the problem is not solved at the source and they just treat each case one by one, then I guess these people will never be able to handle it even if they die.
There was no other way but to leave some people at the isolation point to watch over the medicine and continue to boil it.
Xia Tian and Shen Nian took people to check and disinfect every household.
For those families where no one has been infected, they are asked to stay at home and not go out, and disinfect every day.
They were given quicklime to sprinkle in the pigpen, chicken coop, corners and other places, and the house was fumigated with mugwort every day.
I made a medicinal soup, added some spiritual spring water, and let them drink it first.
This will at least ensure that people who have not been infected will not be infected again.
New tents have also been set up at the isolation point to separate patients with severe and mild symptoms, as well as men, women, young and old.
This reduces cross infection.
There were not enough people, so Shen Nian went to mobilize another 200 people.
At the city gate, the emperor has ordered that no one is allowed to enter or leave until the plague is completely cured.
This was also the method that Xia Tian asked Chen Nian to propose to the emperor at that time.
This is to prevent the movement of people and the infection of people in other towns.
That would really be a disaster!
On the third day after arriving in Chengbei, the condition of the people who were initially quarantined was under control and gradually improved.
A smile appeared on everyone's face, which meant that their lives were saved.
Just when Xia Tian thought everything was getting better, an elderly man in a commoner's family suddenly fell ill and died before she could even get to him.
When she and Shen Nian arrived, the man was already dead, and the family members were surrounding the old man and crying.
The doctor who came with him came forward to examine the patient and found that he died of cholera.
Xia Tian was puzzled and asked the man, "Didn't we give every household a dose of the medicine yesterday and have everyone drink it? What's going on?"
This shouldn't happen. She added spiritual spring water to her medicine soup, so anyone who drinks it will not be infected.
Now those who stay at home have never been infected. Even if they were infected before taking the medicine, the disease can be controlled after taking the medicine.
It can't get any worse.
Her spiritual spring water is not an ordinary decoction. It has been tested many times and there will definitely not be such loopholes.
Unless someone didn't take the medicine at all!
The man being asked avoided looking at her, stammered and couldn't answer.
