Chapter 321 Vaccines
Zang Hongfeng was right.

The research and development of vaccines is based on years, and the mutation rate of this virus is extremely high, so it is difficult to develop a corresponding vaccine in a short period of time.

Vaccines are an important part of the prevention and control of infectious diseases. There is currently no preventive vaccine available for Ebola virus. There are many reasons for this situation.

Ebola virus is a biosafety level [-] pathogen. There are not many countries and regions in the world with laboratories of this level, so it is relatively difficult to carry out research, so people do not know enough about Ebola.

The Chinese government did not expect to develop a vaccine in a short period of time. This is the fifth batch of aid personnel in Africa, and the government hopes that they can obtain more information about the Ebola virus.

"Xiao Ran, I heard from Qiu Yu that your ability is very strong, and you can even be ranked first in some domestic research fields." Zang Hongfeng said, "This is the first time I have seen Qiu Yu admire a young man so much." People. Because of this, there is no need for you to risk Ebola virus in vivo experiments during these three months."

Jing Xiaoran's low profile may be able to hide it from others, but it cannot escape Li Qiuyu who has been watching him grow up.

From the initial research and development of "new oral anticoagulants" to the emergence of immune checkpoint inhibitors, Li Qiuyu has been paying attention to the existence of Jing Xiaoran.

It can be said that Li Qiuyu should be the person who knows Jing Xiaoran's details best at present, including knowing that Jing Xiaoran is the big boss behind the Shenzhou biological drug experiment.

"Director Zang, you're right, but if you stay in the laboratory all the time, doing nothing, it's very boring." Jing Xiaoran sighed.

"A man must endure loneliness." Zang Hongfeng said with a smile, "Three months will pass in a blink of an eye!"

Seeing that Zang Hongfeng said so, Jing Xiaoran can only accept it by default for the time being, and then take a step by step.

"By the way, I heard that you and Jiang Xiaojian are very close?" Zang Hongfeng said suddenly.

Jing Xiaoran nodded: "Well, Brother Jian is very forthright, and he is a very good friend. The two of us can talk quite well."

Hearing this, Zang Hongfeng smiled: "Your luck is really good, and it is right to have a good relationship with Jiang Xiaojian."

Jing Xiaoran looked at Zang Hongfeng with some doubts, but he just smiled and didn't reveal anything.

"Xiao Ran, if you encounter any difficulties in life, you can come to me, and I will try my best to help you if I can."

After instructing Jing Xiaoran a few more words, Director Zang got up and left.

After Director Zang left, Jing Xiaoran immediately sent a WeChat message to Li Qiuyu.

However, Li Qiuyu didn't reply right away. He performed a lot of surgeries on the stage every day, so he probably hasn't left the operating table yet.

"Find a time and thank Teacher Li well." Jing Xiaoran thought to himself.

……

Silent all night, the next morning.

The entire Huaxia medical team officially began to station in Dongka Hospital and temporary laboratories.

As a member of scientific research and medical treatment, Jing Xiaoran came to the temporary laboratory early in the car.

Today's temporary laboratory is different from yesterday, and the temporary laboratory has a new look.

There are some mottled and peeling dirt on the walls, as if they have been repainted.

A red banner was hung on the high eaves, and the banner read "Warmly welcome the arrival of the Huaxia International Medical Team" in Chinese characters!
I don't see you this night, the gap is a bit big.

It seems that face engineering is not unique to Huaxia.

Going upstairs, Jing Xiaoran directly came to his own independent laboratory, which is only a wall away from Huaxia Laboratory.

"Teacher, you are here!"

In the laboratory, Xiao Duan had already arrived.

His face was extremely excited, and his eyes looking at Jing Xiaoran were also full of fire!

This is totally different from yesterday's!
what happened?

Jing Xiaoran was a little puzzled, why did Xiao Duan look at him with "desire" in his eyes after seeing him this night?
"It's early for you too." Jing Xiaoran nodded slightly, and stood a little further away from Xiao Duan calmly.

But Xiao Duan took a big step forward, approached Jing Xiaoran, smiled and said: "Teacher, what is your plan for today?"

Jing Xiaoran was taken aback for a moment, then paused and said: "Then, then you should familiarize yourself with the instruments and equipment in the laboratory first."

"Okay, teacher, I'll go right away!"

After finishing speaking, Xiao Duan walked away in a fart.

Jing Xiaoran looked at Xiao Duan's back, and shook his head inexplicably.

Then he also sat in front of his own laboratory table, and began to search for information about the Ebola virus in his previous life in his mind.

Ebola virus, filoviridae, highly virulent, from the tropics, but the source of transmission is unknown!

All organisms known to man are composed of cells, except viruses.

Biologists regard viruses as "living organisms," but they are not "alive" in the strict sense of the word.Viruses are neither alive nor dead, and exist on the boundary between life and non-life.

They are tiny, simple in structure, and have only one nucleic acid (DNA or RNA). They must parasitize and multiply in living cells by replicating.

Once inside the host cell, it can produce a new generation of viruses just like itself according to the genetic information contained in its own nucleic acid.

Viruses have only one purpose: to replicate!

In previous lives, a total of five Ebola viruses were discovered.

分别是扎伊尔埃博拉病毒(1976年)、苏丹埃博拉病毒(1979年)、雷斯顿埃博拉病毒(2002年发现)、塔伊森林埃博拉病毒(2010)、本迪布焦埃博拉病毒(2012)。

The most terrifying of these is the Zaire Ebola virus, with a staggering [-] out of [-] fatality rates, and [-] out of [-] infected people will die!
Zaire Ebola virus is like a blackboard eraser for human life!
When the Ebola virus is raging in the human body, the entire immune system will fail, as if it has lost the ability to respond to the virus attack.

The pathogenic mechanism of Ebola virus is similar to that of HIV, both of which destroy the immune system, but Ebola is different from HIV's sneak attack, Ebola's attack is explosive!

Ebola can do in ten days what AIDS took ten years to do.

These are all the information that Jing Xiaoran knows, although it is not much, but it has surpassed the current level of knowledge.

And the most critical thing is the development of Ebola vaccine!
Commonly used vaccine strategies include live attenuated vaccines and inactivated vaccines.

These two strategies are not suitable for Ebola virus. Once the virus virulence recovery occurs in the live attenuated vaccine, the consequences will be unimaginable, and the inactivated vaccine is not advisable, because the production of this vaccine first needs to obtain a large amount of Ebola Viruses, the production of so many viruses requires factories with the same level of biosafety as Level [-], and cultivating such a large amount of Ebola virus itself is a very dangerous thing.
