medical treatment

"Doctor Yu, will you go to Africa for rescue?"

After listening to Yu Zhiming's phone call in English, Sakurai Akemi asked directly.

Yu Zhiming replied simply, "No!"

"why?"

"fear death!"

"Are you afraid of death?" Sakurai Akemi's eyes widened.

Yu Zhiming explained softly: "My body exploration requires close physical contact with the patient. Facing this unknown infectious virus with a high mortality rate, the possibility of being infected is not small."

"I'm so young and I don't have any children yet. Isn't it normal for me to be timid and afraid of death?"

Sakurai Akemi chuckled and said, "Doctor Yu, I like your honesty and directness. I thought you would cite objective difficulties such as not being able to take a long-distance plane trip and the noisy local environment that prevents you from using your abilities."

Yu Zhiming laughed and said, "No matter what kind of objective difficulties there are, there are ways to overcome them."

"As for being timid and afraid of death, no one can force you to do it. After all, whether or not to go to the rescue is a voluntary act."

Facing Yu Zhiming's serious explanation, Gu Qingran rolled his eyes and continued, "Doctor Sakurai, if Doctor Yu really goes to Africa to participate in the rescue activities, in addition to facing the threat of unknown infectious viruses with high mortality rates, he must also beware of assassinations by unfriendly forces."

"To be honest with Dr. Sakurai, even when Dr. Yu was in China, foreign forces had planned more than one operation against him."

Sakurai Akemi let out a sigh of shock and said, "Dr. Yu is a blessing to the people of the world. How could there be such a cruel and ruthless force?!"

Gu Qingran sighed: "If everyone in the world had a basic moral bottom line, there would be no war and killing..."

The banquet in honor of Dr. Sakurai Akemi started at 5:30 p.m. and lasted until 7:30 p.m.

Because the next day was Monday and everyone had work, we didn't plan any other activities and just dispersed.

Yu Zhiming waited until the Phantom was running smoothly, then took out his cell phone and called Qin Jingmo.

Before he could open his mouth, Qin Jingmo's voice came out from the phone.

"Doctor Yu, you're not going to rush into Africa to show your internationalism without thinking about the consequences, are you?"

"You know that too?" Yu Zhiming was a little surprised.

Qin Jingmo said on the other end of the phone: "How could I not know? This news has become a hot topic online."

"I seriously suspect that someone is trying to lead the trend, buy hype, and use public opinion to force you to risk your life."

"Doctor Yu, don't make a rash decision."

Yu Zhiming chuckled and said, "Doctor Qin, don't worry, I am the only man of the second generation of our Yu family."

"If I dare to take the risk, my sisters will tie me up and not let me leave the house."

Qing Ning beside him heard this and whispered, "You sisters don't even need to do anything, I will tie you up."

Yu Zhiming glanced at her and said to the phone, "Doctor Qin, I'm calling to tell you that Doctor Sakurai has an operation scheduled next Tuesday."

"Have the surgical assistant you recommended come over quickly."

Qin Jingmo on the other end of the call let out a sigh and said with joy, "It's done so quickly!"

"As expected of Dr. Yu, he is very efficient and has a very high profile."

Yu Zhiming smiled and said, "Doctor Qin, don't be happy yet. Doctor Sakurai only agreed to give it a try first. If she is not satisfied with it, she can dismiss the patient unconditionally and without reason."

Qin Jingmo laughed and said, "Doctor Yu, I will definitely not recommend a crooked person. I wouldn't say this surgical assistant is so outstanding, but he is outstanding."

"I won't let you down..." When the call ended, Qin Jingmo did not forget to remind him, "Doctor Yu, you can't go to Africa. Your life no longer belongs to you alone."

"To put it bluntly, if something happens to you, many medical projects at Huashan Second Hospital, your hometown teaching hospital, will be suspended..."

Yu Zhiming put away his phone and found that Qingning had opened the gift that Dr. Sakurai had sent her.

It is a set of exquisite silver tea set.

Just as Yu Zhiming was about to pick it up to admire it, his cell phone rang...

It was a call from Teacher Qi Yue.

"Zhiming, you know about the buzz online about you being named to go to Africa for rescue, right?"

Yu Zhiming nodded and was about to speak when Qi Yue's very serious voice came from the phone.

"Zhi Ming, you are absolutely not allowed to go..."

At this moment, Li Yao, who had just finished dinner at home, was also answering the phone.

The caller introduced himself as Zhang, director of the International Exchange and Cooperation Center of the National Health Commission.

"President Li, my country has always maintained very good state relations with most African countries. In addition to my country's adherence to the principle of equal diplomacy, more importantly, my country has been providing them with a lot of assistance over the years."

“In addition to financial assistance, medical assistance is also a very important part of it.”

After a pause, Director Zhang said in a serious tone: "This time, a serious unknown virus outbreak broke out in Africa. At this critical moment, our country cannot be absent."

Hearing this, Li Yao quickly expressed his opinion: "Director Zhang, I will notify the infectious disease department of the hospital and ask them to prepare for emergency departure and wait for the country's call and arrangement."

After three or four seconds of silence, Director Zhang's voice came from the phone again.

"President Li, the World Health Organization specifically mentioned Dr. Yu Zhiming from your hospital, and there is a lot of discussion online about this."

"If this unknown virus epidemic is not quickly and effectively controlled, once it spreads on a large scale, you, me, your family and friends will not be safe."

Director Zhang's tone became excited during the call, "President Li, this is a crisis for all of humanity. This is not the time to be selfish and hold back, or to be afraid and retreat."

Upon hearing this, Li Yao frowned, and his alertness immediately reached its peak.

He turned on the screen of his mobile phone again to confirm that the call was in recording mode.

"Director Zhang, does this call represent your personal opinion, the opinion of the International Exchange and Cooperation Center, or the opinion of the entire National Health Commission?"

"President Li Yao, what do you mean?" Director Zhang's tone on the phone suddenly became stern.

Li Yao said calmly, "I just want to clarify the importance of your call."

"After all, your International Exchange and Cooperation Center is not the superior department of our Huashan Hospital management system."

The next moment, Director Zhang's questioning voice came from the phone, "President Li Yao, in the face of a crisis involving all of humanity, are you still trying to speak in an official tone?"

"Now Dr. Yu Zhiming is highly anticipated by everyone, and those in Africa are even more eagerly waiting for him. We hope he can turn the tide."

"Do you and Dr. Yu Zhiming want to bear the responsibility of destroying the China-Africa friendship that has been hard-won for decades?"

Li Yao said in a deep voice: "I can't bear this responsibility, and neither can Doctor Yu. There's no reason for him to bear it."

After a pause, he slowly said, "Let me remind Director Zhang that going to Africa for rescue is a voluntary act. Even if it is an operation arranged by the country, you and I are not qualified to decide whether Dr. Yu will go."

"You're just wasting your time by calling me. You should just ask your superiors directly..."
