Master Doctor in the City

Chapter 4253: :Source of infection

It belongs to western Sichuan, and the temperature is still relatively cold, especially the surrounding mountains are high mountains.

In this weather, it may snow from time to time?

However, Ye Chen knew that it was impossible for this kind of germs to really be wiped out if it was snowing in this weather.

After Ye Chen fed the ointments made from camellia medicine to those severe patients, he still had to see how effective they were after taking them.

Now Ye Chen wants to do something else, but he can't do it.

I chatted with the old lady in the room and learned that the old lady had never lived in Zhaojia Village in her life.

The old lady didn’t want to get married back then, but because she was married to a man in the next village, but she didn’t come back when she heard that she went out. Others thought she would not marry again when she got older. Five guarantee households in the village.

However, she is physically strong. In addition to the minimum income, she also receives rice and oil from the village, and then she can go out to collect firewood for burning. This kind of life is still passable.

"It's been like this for the rest of my life, but it's nothing." The old lady said in the air.

When Ye Chen wanted to ask if this kind of plague had occurred in the village before, the old Chinese medicine doctor Wang hurried over to look for him.

"Doctor Ye, something has happened."

"Director Wang, what happened?"

Ye Chen thought it was the patients he was treating.

"It was a villager in the next village who also contracted similar symptoms."

The village next door?

"how far?"

"It's only two or three kilometers away."

Two or three kilometers away, it's actually very close. It should be the nearest mountain.

"Similar symptoms?"

Ye Chen said to the old lady, then stood up.

Xia Qi and Liao Bingxue also followed.

"What is the situation with Director Wang?"

Could it be that the epidemic has really spread? If it is really like that, then it will be in trouble.

This kind of plague is most afraid of spreading. If it spreads to places with many people, it will be more troublesome.

In addition, it is now during the Spring Festival. If those people move around or even bring them to the city, it will be even more troublesome.

"I just heard about it, now let you go over and take a look."

Liao Bingxue and Xia Qi did not follow. Ye Chen followed a western doctor in a military vehicle to a nearby village called Gelang Village.

While there, Ye Chen quickly learned that besides Han, there are other ethnic minorities living here.

Therefore, when Ye Chen came here, he realized that the situation was a little different.

This is happening in one of the village doctors. The village doctor is a Miao doctor. He has already seen it and cannot be cured. He also heard that the situation in the neighboring village was reported immediately. When they came over, Ye Chen and Na A western doctor took a look.

A young woman with a red face, who looked like her in her twenties, was lying on the bed, and she seemed to be in the same condition as the villagers in Liujia Village.

"When did it start?"

"It was yesterday."

It should be earlier, but neither the patient nor the others found it.

Soon, Ye Chen learned that this young woman was Zhuoma, a villager in this village, and she usually herd sheep.

However, it still snows occasionally, and of course I don’t go out to herd sheep. I usually contact those flocks. Moreover, the food the flocks eat is also fed by Zhuoma.

"She always feeds the sheep? Is there anything wrong with the flock?"

They don't know that sheep can also be used as a source of infection, and can even spread to humans. Now that Zhuoma has an accident, is there an accident with those sheep?

When Ye Chen followed to watch, he quickly saw that there were hundreds of goats in a group of goats, but none of them seemed to be a problem.

What Ye Chen didn't expect was that he actually saw a cute looking animal here.

"This is a groundhog?"

Ye Chen asked.

He remembered seeing it on the Mongolian Plateau.

"It's a groundhog."

In fact, there are groundhogs here, and those people did not harm them, instead they usually feed them.

It looks harmless to humans and animals.

However, Ye Chen knew that this groundhog also carried the virus.

Suddenly, Ye Chen thought of a little.

"Dolma had been in contact with these groundhogs before?"

"Yes, it was cold, Zhuoma brought it back here to raise it."

Zhuoma's family introduced.

Ye Chen's expression changed even more.

After returning to Zhuoma's room, Zhuoma now has a high fever, cough, sputum production, and difficulty breathing. Although he has taken some antipyretics, it is of no use.

Ye Chen directly inspected Zhuoma's arm and found that there were multiple wounds on her arm, which seemed to have been bitten by something sharp.

"Doctor Ye, what are you looking at?"

"Do you think this has been bitten by something?"

"It should be, there are tooth prints on it."

The western doctor also noticed it.

At this time, Ye Chen even more guessed that it was probably related to groundhogs.

"Zolma should have been bitten by a woodchuck, and the woodchuck carries the plague virus. Now I suspect that Zhuoma's situation is infected with the plague. In addition, the villagers in Liujia Village are probably also like this."

plague?

When I heard that it was a plague, the western doctor's expression naturally changed.

He knew that Ye Chen didn't say it casually.

It may be true.

Plague like this has always been there. Although there has not been a large-scale outbreak, it has occurred almost every year, and there have been cases of death.

Like this time, several old people died in Liujiacun.

If it is really the plague, then they found that the symptoms of the villagers in Liujia Village are indeed very similar to those of the plague.

However, there seems to be something different.

"Isolate immediately. Villagers in the village must take a bath frequently."

In the cold weather here, many villagers may not take a bath for many days, and the plague is mainly transmitted through the bite of rodents and fleas, which can transmit pathogens from animals to humans, forming rodents to fleas and then to humans. Way of spreading.

Many seem to be explained clearly now.

Moreover, it can be known that the source of infection is probably the plague, or even the spread of those groundhogs.

"Doctor Ye, it might really be like that."

The western doctor became more excited as he thought about it.

If it is really plague, it is easy to treat.

However, Ye Chen was not so optimistic, but said: "Even if it is related to the plague, it is likely to be a variant of the plague. I suggest that your western doctor immediately treat the patients on the basis of the original plague."

The Western doctor nodded, feeling that it was exactly the same.

As for Zhuoma, she is now experiencing similar symptoms in Gelang Village, but it is not known whether other villagers have an incubation period.

However, Ye Chen knew that those villagers did need to take a bath to clean up their own bodies, including clothing, and even bed covers.

Ye Chen also thought about why the old lady in Liujiacun was okay?

One is that the old lady probably loves cleaning, and the other is that the camellia soaked by the other party has a good effect.
