The next day, at dawn, Qing Cang was exercising outside the main city.
A large number of powerful self-made equipment were like nothing in his hands.
Although he had been fighting continuously during this period, he did not waste his exercise.
This was his A habit developed over the years.
"Commander, I have something important to report."
I heard that this voice belonged to Guan Xiaofeng.
If she came here now, there must be something big going on.
Ever since she took charge of the medical department, she rarely came to him, indicating that this matter was very important.
He stopped and wiped the sweat from his forehead.
It was a cold day and he was only wearing a short t-shirt, so he didn't feel cold.
When he saw Guan Xiaofeng coming over, he put on a coat.
"What does Minister Guan want from me?"
"About the large number of patients appearing in the hospital recently."
As soon as she opened her mouth, Qingcang felt something was wrong.
Generally speaking, Guan Xiaofeng would not come to him about patients.
Now that it was dawn, he clearly felt a crisis.
"What's wrong with the patient?"
“Recently, a large number of patients have been pouring in from outside the city and come to our medical center for medical treatment.
However, many of them have already died on the way before arriving at the medical center, and their characteristics are all surprisingly the same, including sore throat and cough, and general discomfort. , fatigue, and high fever.
Some people who came into contact with them also became ill, and we diagnosed their illness as plague."
From ancient times to the present, mankind has encountered countless plagues, some of which are particularly serious and have had a huge impact on future generations of mankind: SARS, plague, smallpox, influenza, etc.
Generally speaking, plague is an infectious disease caused by some highly pathogenic microorganisms, such as bacteria and viruses.
It is usually caused by poor environmental sanitation after natural disasters.
Every time the plague breaks out, countless people die, and it can reduce the population of an area by 90% in an instant.
Countless major plagues broke out throughout ancient history, especially the several major plagues in the late Eastern Han Dynasty.
Their historical impact was the rise of talk and metaphysics, which led to the extreme popularity of religion and the large number of believers.
This led to the Yellow Turban Army finally using religion as a The famous uprising had a considerable impact on the formation of the Three Kingdoms pattern.
Now that the Yellow Turban Rebellion had just been put down, another plague came.
As soon as he heard Guan Xiaofeng's description, he was basically sure that the disease should be typhoid fever.
In ancient times, no one knew how to treat typhoid fever unless they were medical experts.
One of his men had suffered from typhoid fever before.
He had medicine, but the quantity of these medicines was not large.
It was only enough to treat hundreds of people.
What would happen to more people?
When a plague comes, even a small one will die.
It could be as small as 100,000 people or as large as tens of millions of people.
Even if all his life is consumed, it will not be enough to treat these people, and he is not a savior.
He can save them within the scope of his ability, such as using some resources.
Once it exceeds, there is nothing he can do.
All I can think about is self-preservation.
According to historical records, there were three major epidemics during the reign of Emperor Huan of the Eastern Han Dynasty, five during the reign of Emperor Ling, and the epidemic was even more severe during the reign of Emperor Xian and Jian'an.
Thousands of people were devoured by the disease, causing an unprecedented disaster with ten houses and nine empty houses.
Among them, the largest epidemics occurred in 171, 173, 179, 182, and 185 AD during the years from 168 to 188 AD of Emperor Ling of the Eastern Han Dynasty.
According to the record in Volume 58 of Zizhi Tongjian: In the spring of Yichou AD 185, in the first month of the year, plague spread everywhere.
It happens to be this year, and the timing is right.

He happened to be bumped into by Qing Cang.
He felt that these people must be desperate, so he thought of entering Huaxia City to seek treatment.
Some people should have died on the way.
All this is too sudden and will inevitably bring a large number of sources of infection.
Therefore, from now on, the entire Huaxia City is in danger.
"Can the number of people be counted?"
"I didn't know it was this kind of disease a few days ago.
It infected more than a hundred people and killed more than ninety people.
This plague is also very contagious.
Now there are more than three hundred people with the same symptoms.
I follow ancient books The prescribed medicines have not been effective in stopping its spread.”
If they were allowed to spread, it would be absolutely fatal to a city.
It was possible that the population of Huaxia City, which had finally developed with great difficulty, would be completely depleted.
He had to control the epidemic and could not allow them to spread.
In fact, it has spread and seems to be spreading.
"Comer" "exist" "Passing on hundreds of civil and military personnel" "yes" "This matter is important.
Minister, I will ask you to count the people who have been in contact with the patients.
Isolate them all.
No patient can be allowed to leave the hospital.
Let all the people who died along the way be cremated and not buried.
Also, Have people transport a large amount of quicklime to disinfect the remains of the patient's body fluids, and also disinfect all water sources."
The main component of quicklime is calcium oxide.
Disinfection relies on calcium oxide dissolving in water to form calcium hydroxide and releasing a large amount of heat.
Calcium hydroxide is a strong base, which will increase the H of the objects to be disinfected and destroy the growth environment of bacteria.
At the same time, a large amount of heat release will cause local high temperatures and have a sterilizing effect.
In ancient times, this was the only thing you could get, so disinfectant was a no-brainer.
Qingcang had experienced the SARS outbreak, so his first reaction was very clear, which was to isolate and disinfect.
The last step is treatment.
This type of typhoid usually takes about ten days from infection to outbreak.
He must control the epidemic within these ten days and not let it become serious.
"this" "Do as I say, otherwise the entire Huaxia City will be in danger."
His expression was very firm.
If he didn't handle it well, the whole city might be in danger.
He didn't expect that the plague would spread here.
Guan Xiaofeng was frightened when she heard what he said.
She accepted the order and was about to go out to make arrangements.
"etc" Qingcang took out a large number of medical masks from nowhere and said: "Put this on, everyone in the medical department must wear it like this."
He gestured and put on a mask.
Guan Xiaofeng didn't understand why he did this.
He said: "With this, at least there is an extra guarantee to reduce infection and protect the safety of medical personnel."
"yes" She held the mask and headed to the medical center.
And Qing Cang suddenly remembered something.
"Comer" Another guard came forward to answer the order.
"exist" "Give the order to all citizens to go out as little as possible, and at the same time close the four city gates, prohibiting all people from entering and exiting.
And notify the intelligence department to inquire about where this plague started and in what direction it is developing."

He must understand the direction of the spread of the plague and prepare in advance.
If it comes from the south, then he must place the two armies of the Flying Dragon Army and the Tiger Army outside and do not return.
If it comes from the north, then They must be brought back as quickly as possible to prevent soldiers from being infected and not receiving treatment.
"yes" The guard went straight down to deliver the order.
Next, he will call everyone together to discuss countermeasures.
If he has medicine, he must also have a priority principle.
The generals must come first, and then the soldiers.
But there were so many soldiers that he felt scared
