Reborn South Africa as a police officer

Chapter 293

Once the plague really broke out, even if Rock wanted to help, he would actually be powerless. After all, even if Johannesburg's medical conditions were better, Johannesburg was too busy to take care of itself in the face of the plague and was unable to provide help to Orange.

After returning to Johannesburg, Rock went to Abramovich immediately, and Abramovich is an expert in this area.

"The first patient was sent to Bigwig Hospital yesterday. Dean Colin Bellamy organized a doctor's consultation and confirmed that the patient was infected with the plague. Now the hospital has been quarantined. All the doctors who have been in contact with the patient and The nurses are all in isolation. Director Dunn has imposed martial law in Bigwig Town and organized the residents to eradicate the rats in the town. The problem here should not be a big problem. The outbreak of the plague is also related to the sanitary conditions. The sanitary conditions of Bigwig Town are top-notch , The chance of plague outbreak is not high. This morning, the hospital organized doctors to check the students of Bigwig Public School, and the results were not bad. No student was infected with the plague. Now Bigwig Public School has been closed, and a checkpoint has been set up at the entrance of the town. During the plague, no one is allowed to enter—" Buck is leading people to disinfect every corner of Bigwig Town, and within Rock's sight range, almost everyone is wearing a mask, and no one dares to take the plague lightly.

"Just disinfection is not enough. We must take this opportunity to carry out a sanitation rectification of the whole town. All garbage must be cleaned out. Residents must be raised in awareness of hygiene. Residents are urged to take a bath and change clothes every day to minimize the danger as much as possible." "Rock's requirements are high. In the past, Rock emphasized hygiene, but some people didn't take it seriously. Fortunately, Rock's attitude is tough, otherwise the situation should be more serious now.

Don’t forget that it is still 1902, and streptomycin, the special drug against plague, could not be invented until 1943. Before the invention of streptomycin, prevention was the most effective means to deal with plague.

Abu said the same thing.

"The best way to deal with the plague is to prevent it. If you find a patient, or a suspected patient, you must be strictly isolated. Visits and interactions between patients must be prohibited. At the same time, attention must be paid to disinfection and treatment of the source of infection. Everything related to the patient must be buried or burned; Plague patients can also be treated. Sanitation should be done for the patients. The wards and rooms should be regularly disinfected, and the patients should be replenished with water in time to facilitate the excretion of toxins. I have sorted out some ways to deal with the plague, and I hope it will be helpful to the plague.” Abu is indeed very professional and has compiled a manual against the plague.

Based on this manual alone, it is worth the money that Rock spent on Abramovich!

"Thank you, Professor, let's go to Johannesburg with me, Mr. Mayor needs your face-to-face report——" Roque is going back to Johannesburg immediately, and Philip is about to hold a meeting that all officials must attend. Roque asked for leave , to come to Abu.

The situation was really serious. On the way back to Johannesburg, Roque saw a corpse truck transporting the corpses out of Johannesburg for processing.

In the past, Roque might not have cared about such a scene, but now he would immediately associate it with the plague.

"What's the situation?" Rock asked the police on duty.

"Plague!" The masked policeman said succinctly.

It is because Europe is too vigilant about the plague. The shadow of the Black Death has loomed over Europe for hundreds of years. Europeans have accumulated a lot of experience in fighting the plague. Therefore, Rock and Philip have not returned to Johannesburg. The city government of Johannesburg has already acted.

Abu's Handbook provides adequate guidance for combating the plague.

After Philip read Abramovich's manual, he immediately ordered all officials to act immediately to bring the plague under control before it broke out on a large scale.

The workload of the police station is also very heavy. Everyone is equal before the plague. Others can stay at home and not go out, but the police have to maintain law and order and continue to patrol the streets. Therefore, after Philip met Abu, Rock still invited Abu to visit The police station gives the police a hygiene lesson.

Speaking of mobilization ability, Johannesburg beat Pretoria and Orange.

In just one day, the entire city of Johannesburg has taken action to completely rectify the dead corners of the city, and eliminate rats and fleas throughout the city. All patients and suspected patients were sent to quarantine areas set up on the outskirts of the city. Outside the quarantine area, there are policemen standing guard. Anyone who walks out of the quarantine area without permission will be directly shot by the police.

The isolation area also needs medical personnel. Within the scope of Johannesburg, only the Big Vegetable Hospital has a strong medical force, so Philip hopes that Rock can send doctors and nurses from the Big Vegetable Hospital into the isolation area to provide treatment for the patients in the isolation area.

"Sorry mayor, I can't let the doctors and nurses of the hospital enter the isolation area." Roque directly rejected Philip's request.

"Then what should we do? Could it be that the people in the quarantine area are left to fend for themselves?" Philip was very angry, saying that there were also Chinese in the quarantine area, and Rock would never give up with those Chinese.

"There is not enough protection for medical staff. Professor Abu and Dean Bellamy are working on a better way. Unless we have a way to ensure that the doctors and nurses entering the isolation area are not infected, otherwise, we can only watch the isolation The people in the district will fend for themselves." Rock insisted that doctors and nurses are also human beings, and Rock can't force those doctors and nurses to die.

It may be too much to say this, but entering the quarantine area without perfect protection is almost the same as sending to death.

"Lock, pay attention to your identity, you are the police chief of Johannesburg!" Philip was furious, and this was the first time someone rejected Philip in person.

"Yes, I know my identity. I not only want to protect the patients in the isolation area, but also protect the people outside the isolation area, especially those doctors and nurses. Each of them is the result of our hard work. If they come out, if they have perfect protection, I will let them enter the isolation area to provide treatment for patients, but not now." Rock is most disgusted with kidnapping others morally, if you want to kidnap morally, then kidnap yourself.

Even if Philip is Phyllis' father, Roque will never compromise.

"Okay, great!" Philip paced back and forth in the office angrily, but there was nothing he could do about Rock.

In fact, there are not many people in the isolation area, and Rock is not willing to die, but just hopes to wait a few days until Abu and Bellamy find the best solution, and then provide treatment services for the patients in the isolation area.

From Philip's standpoint, he certainly hoped that the fewer people would die from the plague, the better. If the death toll in Johannesburg was in single digits after a plague, it would be a miracle, and Philip would become a hero of the British Empire.

"I guarantee that Johannesburg will fare the best of all the Transvaal and Orange in this plague." Rock could not embarrass Philip for long.

"You promise?" Philip was also an old man, and immediately went down the donkey.

"I promise!" Rock vowed.

"Okay, very good!" Although the words were exactly the same, the tone was completely different: "You should return to Bigwig Town immediately, and ensure the safety of Bigwig Public School at all costs."

Only then did Philip think of Phyllis.

"Yes, Bigwig Hospital has checked the bodies of all the students of Bigwig Public School and confirmed that none of the students were infected with the plague. Now Bigwig Town and Bigwig Public School have been closed, Phyllis is safe." Rock knew What was Philip worrying about.

Philip nodded, the expression on his face finally looked better, and he waved his hand to let Rock leave on his own.

Rock didn't rush back to Bigwig Town, but went to Kronstad to find Martin first.

Compared with cities, the situation on farms is much better. Farms around Johannesburg are used to keeping dogs. As the farms enter the normal state, cats to prevent rats are of course essential.

Farmers hate mice as much as biologists. Mice have always been a serious problem in the granary. Since the last potato harvest, almost every farm in Johannesburg has cats, whether mice like potatoes or not. The farm also raised many rats, which effectively reduced the number of rats and objectively curbed the spread of the plague.

Martin has gone door-to-door at farms around Kronstad since the Johannesburg notice.

The results are still very good, at least so far, no plague patients have been found in Kronstad.

"Not one?" Rock felt unbelievable.

"Not a single one!" Martin was full of confidence. This kind of thing is not easy to lie.

"Very good, we must continue to work hard, strengthen health promotion, and ensure that the plague will not break out on a large scale—" Roque must be praising, and Philip must be very happy if he knows the situation in Kronstad: "Pay attention to Bloemfontein's Although the situation here is not bad, the situation in Bloemfontein must be very bad. At this time, we must strictly prevent any Boers from entering Johannesburg."

Rock knew that Bloemfontein's sanitation was not good, so the epidemic in Bloemfontein should be very serious. Now what Rock is most afraid of is that the Boers will bring the plague into Johannesburg, so whether it is a patient or not, Rock refuses any The Boers entered the territory of Johannesburg.

"What if someone breaks in by force?" Martin sneered.

This is the aftermath of the trial of Austin Burns. With the lessons learned from Austin Burns and others, anyone who faces the Boers will have to reconsider again and again. Martin has just returned from Bloemfontein, and he is obviously not exempt.

"Arrest, you can shoot if necessary." Rock is not polite. The current situation is more serious than the day of the conflict. The Governor's Mansion has strictly prohibited population movement during the plague. In other words, the police and the garrison have now obtained immunity from death. Gold medal, even if you shoot, you don't need to bear criminal responsibility.

　It’s almost the end of the month, Yutou needs to save some manuscripts, and prepares to break out at the beginning of next month, to see if he can hit the top ten monthly tickets for history, so four thousand has changed to three thousand, and Yutou has also started to fluctuate——
