Come on, Dr. Wu

"Yes, these bad guys, no, these rumors, are obviously spread by those unscrupulous merchants, specifically to mislead us and make us buy their products."

"Damn it! I've already bought my plane ticket, and I can't get a full refund."

"You just believe whatever the hospital says. Aren't you afraid that they are deceiving you? If they say it won't be spread, then it won't be spread. What if it happens?"

"But that's true. We can't trust everything these people in the hospital say. We'd better be cautious."

……

As Yu Shifu spoke, the public began to make various voices again, but overall it was better than before. At least the public now was obviously more rational than before.

“It’s Ebola!”

These words were like a thunderclap, exploding in the already tense and depressing atmosphere.

At this time, the Department of Gastroenterology had already become a temporary office of the Infectious Disease Hospital, and it was busy and solemn. Director Li, who was in charge of this incident, held the sample test report that had just been completed with a solemn expression, and announced the final conclusion in a low but firm voice.

Wu Xiaofu, who was standing nearby, was more or less prepared when he heard the news, but when the cruel fact was truly before his eyes, he still felt dizzy, as if he had lost his balance and became a little dazed.

After all, who can remain absolutely calm when facing such a dangerous disease?
It’s not that Wu Xiaofu is not calm enough, but the reputation of the Ebola virus is too horrifying.

Once this deadly virus invades the human body, even the strongest people will find it difficult to escape the death threat it brings.

Thinking of this, Wu Xiaofu couldn't help but shudder, and beads of sweat began to appear on his forehead.

Even though he was regarded as a legend on the operating table, he was somewhat at a loss as to how to deal with the Ebola virus.

Moreover, because the disease is highly contagious, the command authority on the scene no longer belongs to the First Affiliated Hospital.

The municipal government acted quickly and urgently mobilized the city's top and most experienced infectious disease experts to form a professional rescue team to rush into the First Affiliated Hospital.

At the same time, in order to curb the spread of the epidemic to the greatest extent, they decisively took measures of isolation nearby - all people who had close contact with the patient Huang Xiaojiang, including Wu Xiaofu, must undergo strict isolation observation without exception.

Huang Xiaojiang has been hospitalized for nearly half a month, and during this period, countless people have had direct or indirect contact with him.

In order to completely control the spread of the virus, all these contacts must be found without exception and examined in detail one by one.

Anyone who may be carrying the virus must not be spared, otherwise the consequences will be disastrous.

However, the battle against Ebola is by no means easy.

It is destined to be a protracted and extremely difficult battle.

The reason is simple. Currently, no specific drug has been developed for this deadly virus. When facing infected patients, all doctors can do is to provide corresponding treatment according to their specific symptoms and do their best to protect the patient's own immune barrier from being completely defeated by the virus.

Every patient needs to grit his teeth and hold on until the body develops strong enough immunity to completely eliminate the virus in the body.

However, this process is full of variables and challenges. Even the slightest slackness or negligence may lead to worsening of the disease or even loss of life. Such an outcome is obviously something no one wants to see.

The World Health Organization has solemnly included this virus in the list of the most serious hazards to humans. It is the dreaded "Level 4 virus."

Once unfortunately infected with this horrible virus, some patients will reach the end of their lives in just 48 hours, and their way of death is extremely miserable.

Once the Ebola virus invades the human body, it spreads rapidly in the body like a wild horse that has broken free from its reins, and reproduces crazily in large numbers.

This terrible virus is like a ferocious invader, mercilessly attacking multiple important organs in the human body, causing them to undergo irreversible degeneration and necrosis.

Over time, these organs gradually lose their original function and are slowly broken down into pieces.

The first thing the patients suffered was internal bleeding, as if their bodies were experiencing a bloody storm.

Immediately afterwards, blood began to flow out of all the seven orifices uncontrollably, continuously and unstoppably.

Not only that, they would also constantly vomit out necrotic organ tissues from their mouths. The scene was simply horrific.

Ultimately, due to a series of fatal factors including extensive internal bleeding and severe brain damage, the patients helplessly walked into the abyss of death.

Doctors, nurses or family members who are responsible for taking care of patients are very likely to be infected with this demonic virus as long as they have close contact with the patients.

Sometimes, the infection rate is even alarmingly high.

For example, during the outbreak in Sudan, people who shared a room and slept with a patient had a 23% chance of infection.

The infection rate among the staff who are responsible for caring for the patients has soared to a staggering 81%!

Even among people doing experimental work in the hospital, there have been many cases of falling ill due to infection with the virus.

They are undoubtedly fully armed for protection, but even so, they cannot stop the invasion of the Ebola virus, precisely because they know how terrible the virus is.

The medical staff working in the Department of Gastroenterology were so scared at this time.

But not every medical worker lives on faith, they also have families and relatives.

It is normal to feel fear and terror when facing the virus. It is commendable that they can persist in working under such circumstances.

"Director Wu, I'm sorry, we need you to cooperate with us in the quarantine test, but Director Liao has already said that he is willing to give you his director's office for quarantine purposes."

Director Li said to Wu Xiaofu with an apologetic look on his face, which made Wu Xiaofu a little flattered. He didn't think he would be treated preferentially in this regard. After all, Director Li was the expert in infectious diseases.

While telling Director Li that he was willing to cooperate, he looked at Director Liao. Director Liao nodded, and was obviously feeling a little sorry. After all, it was he who called Wu Xiaofu over, making Wu Xiaofu a close contact person.

If Wu Xiaofu was really infected with the Ebola virus, he would be so guilty that he would no longer have any conflicts as before.

Seeing Director Li's expression, Wu Xiaofu gave up. It was just a matter of testing. Once the test results showed that there was nothing wrong, there would be no need for that level of isolation. Area F of the Hepatobiliary Surgery Department was silent, and everyone's eyes were focused on Peng Xia, who was in a daze.

He stared blankly ahead, as if his soul had left his body, and he was unaware of the gazes of the people around him. Everyone looked at each other, and they couldn't help but feel a little puzzled and surprised, because such a distracted state was rare for the usually calm and capable Peng Xia.

In fact, it wasn't just Peng Xia who was like this. Others present also had similar behaviors to a greater or lesser extent.

At this moment, they were like a precision machine running at high speed that suddenly lost power and came to an abrupt stop.

Before this, the surgery schedule in the department was so tight that it was hard to breathe. Of the four medical teams, at least two or three would be scheduled to perform surgeries at the same time, and sometimes all the teams would be fully scheduled to perform surgeries.

In other words, at certain times, this small ward alone can occupy three operating rooms and one interventional room, and it often takes an entire day to be busy.

As doctors here, the pace of life is extremely intense.

They are either on duty or working hard in the operating room all day. They can only handle other work matters after the operation is completed.

They are busy from morning till night, and leaving get off work on time is almost a luxury. It is no exaggeration to say that they are just like tireless robots.

Although this job is full of hardships and fatigue, over time, everyone seems to have gradually adapted to this high-intensity, high-pressure work mode.

However, the sudden pause now made them feel a little at a loss. Once they stopped their busy pace, they felt a little strange and uncomfortable.

Just half an hour ago, an urgent notice suddenly popped up in the hospital's group chat: "All operations currently in progress must proceed as usual; however, all elective surgeries that have been scheduled but not yet carried out must be stopped immediately..."

This news was like a bombshell, instantly causing an uproar in the entire hospital.

Not only surgeries were affected, but also various consultation activities and other related work were required to be suspended without exception.

In short, all medical staff are required to return to their respective departments as quickly as possible and be on standby.

This sudden change has already made people a little overwhelmed, but even more unexpected things are yet to come.

Not long after, another message was sent out in the group: For those medical staff who failed to return to the department in time, isolation measures need to be implemented according to the principle of proximity.

Take Area F for example. Several doctors, such as Feng Lingling and Yuna, were following the director closely as they performed an important operation.

When the first message was sent, they were even still working on the operating table!
As for whether the operation was successfully completed, no one can say for sure. Even if it was successful, I am afraid that at this moment, they can only stay in the operating room and be isolated and observed on the spot.

Let's talk about Peng Xia. He had been anxiously waiting for Wu Xiaofu to arrive, and then the two of them could work together to start a crucial operation.

But after waiting for a long time, Wu Xiaofu never showed up. In the end, all he got was a short message from Wu Xiaofu, which read: "Stop the operation immediately and return to the department as soon as possible."

Almost at the same time, a series of news came one after another in the hospital group.

Today, the fact that Ebola virus exists in gastroenterology is no longer a secret, and Peng Xia is naturally well aware of it.

Moreover, Peng Xia also knew clearly about Wu Xiaofu's visit to the Department of Gastroenterology for a consultation.

Therefore, at this moment, Wu Xiaofu was most likely being isolated in the Department of Gastroenterology. Thinking that the Department of Gastroenterology had become the core area where the virus was rampant, Peng Xia couldn't help but sweat for Wu Xiaofu, and his worry became stronger.

Some people may think that this worry is exaggerated, but it is definitely not the case for Peng Xia. It is no exaggeration to say that in the entire hospital, the only person who can make Peng Xia always worry about is Wu Xiaofu.

Peng Xia has always had a mysterious confidence in Wu Xiaofu. In his eyes, it seems that as long as Wu Xiaofu is there, no matter what kind of problem he encounters, he can easily find a solution in the end.

Especially on the operating table, his ability to handle the operation with ease and control the overall situation is even more amazing. So far, Peng Xia has not witnessed any operation that even Wu Xiaofu cannot successfully complete.

However, the current situation is very different from the past.

Wu Xiaofu has to face the extremely dangerous Ebola virus! This terrible virus will not show mercy to anyone.

If the unfortunate thing really happened and Wu Xiaofu was not spared and unfortunately got infected and fell down, Peng Xia simply didn't dare to think about it any further.

"No way, no way."

Peng Xia quickly shook his head, and at this time Lu Xiaoyue suddenly came in front of everyone.

"Ahem, colleagues, please be quiet for a moment! Next, I want to convey two important things to you.

First of all, I believe everyone has already known about the Ebola virus, right?

Following instructions from superiors, a number of medical personnel need to be drawn from various departments to collaborate with infectious disease experts to carry out virus prevention, control and quarantine work.

This task is very difficult, but it is also our unshirkable responsibility as medical staff. Therefore, I hope everyone can actively respond and voluntarily sign up to participate in this work. If any comrade is willing to take the initiative, you can sign up now. "

At this moment, Wu Xiaofu was not in the department. At this critical moment, Lu Xiaoyue had to step forward.

Especially when she learned that doctors Zhang Xuewen and Chen Zhendong were busy in the operating room, Lu Xiaoyue was even more aware of the heavy burden on her shoulders.

What Lu Xiaoyue announced just now was all the official announcement of the hospital. However, there was one sentence she did not say in public, which was - if no one volunteered to participate, then compulsory measures would have to be taken.

According to regulations, party members must take the lead, leaders at all levels must set an example, and at least five staff members from each department must participate.

Lu Xiaoyue knew clearly that she would definitely be counted as one quota, but in this case, there would still be four people short of meeting the department's minimum requirements.

However, forcibly arranging people to perform tasks is not a pleasant thing after all. Doing so can easily lead to complaints or even being regarded as a bad person.

Therefore, Lu Xiaoyue still hopes to see someone take the initiative to step forward and assume this responsibility out of their own will.

At this moment, Peng Xia suddenly trembled all over, as if he had made up his mind, and stood up abruptly, raised his hand quickly and shouted loudly: "I, I'll go!"

His voice was firm and powerful, causing everyone present to turn their eyes to him. (End of this chapter)
