Chapter 470: The Great Influenza of the Century
The second wave of influenza is different from the first wave. This wave of influenza is very contagious, and its mortality rate is nearly fifty times higher than that of ordinary influenza, especially among young adults aged 20 to 35.
The rate is particularly high. In addition to high fever and headache, symptoms include turning blue and coughing up blood. Many people go to work normally in the morning, get sick at noon, and die in the evening.
Faced with the sudden outbreak of disaster, governments around the world began to work hard to isolate patients and disinfect all public places. Almost all countries announced restrictions on citizens' access to public places, including cinemas, dance halls, gymnasiums and other places to be closed.
Everyone should stay at home as much as possible to avoid cross-infection, but they are limited to isolation and prevention. Since there is no specific medicine and the medical level of the entire Wangxiang planet is not high, there is no good way to eliminate these terrible influenzas in various countries.
Virus.
Among all countries, the Chinese Empire was the earliest to start prevention and its methods were the most thorough. Fang Xiaoyu had experience with SARS in his previous life and made many regulations.
First, the country was called upon to start a major sanitation clean-up campaign to eliminate dead spots and reduce disease transmission routes. Second, chemical plants affiliated with the China Consortium produced hypochlorous acid and peracetic acid in large quantities and distributed them to local governments on a regular basis.
Cleaning teams from various places regularly disinfect all public places. Third, in addition to requiring residents to stay at home as much as possible, they are also required to wear masks as much as possible, avoid eating raw food as much as possible, and boil water for five minutes before drinking.
In addition to these regulations, Fang Xiaoyu collected pathological plants from infected soldiers as early as after the first influenza appeared and gave them to the medical school to study specific drugs. Even Xiaofeng scanned the pathological plants into the chip and compared them in a simulated environment.
And research. However, the development of any kind of drug requires long-term research and clinical verification, which cannot be completed in one or two years.
In May 1909, two months after the second wave of influenza began, cases finally appeared in the Chinese Empire. Even among Chinese soldiers on the island of Madagascar, the number of cases began to increase significantly, and even deaths occurred.
Fang Xiaoyu attached great importance to these cases. He immediately asked the Minister of Health, Sun Xiaomei, to open a hospital to accommodate these patients and provide free treatment. Sun Xiaomei also attached great importance to it and personally led people to formulate treatment plans for these people. As a result, during the treatment, Sun Xiaomei unexpectedly discovered that Chinese
The imperial specialty penicillin and sulfa drugs have a suppressive effect on this type of influenza. Although they cannot completely cure it, they can quickly reduce the symptoms.
The Chinese Empire soon announced this result to the world. At the same time, the major pharmaceutical factories in the Chinese Empire began to work overtime to produce medicines. In addition to supplying the first batch of medicines for domestic use, Fang Xiaoyu began to supply them to the ASEAN allies at a fair price, allowing
Domestic people in various countries saw the hope of cure, and the local situation quickly stabilized. In addition, Fang Xiaoyu also began to implement various prevention experiences of the Chinese Empire in allied countries, so that the disease in these countries was effectively controlled and the number of deaths plummeted.
Seeing that the condition of the ASEAN countries had been effectively alleviated, various countries such as the Yaman Empire immediately made requests to the Chinese Empire to purchase medicines. Fang Xiaoyu would not sit idly by and ignore the requests of these countries. He announced that he would impose restrictions on medicines from various countries.
Demand, the Chinese Empire is open to supply, whether it is sulfonamides, penicillin, or hypochlorous acid and peracetic acid used for disinfection. The Chinese Empire’s unscrupulous behavior makes all countries happy, and the Chinese Empire is popular among the people of all countries.
The image in him suddenly grew taller.
Although the Chinese consortium has slightly lowered the prices of various drugs, it is still making a lot of money. However, Fang Xiaoyu is not happy because the drugs are making money. What he is most anxious about is the 100,000 Chinese soldiers on the island of Madagascar. For this reason, Fang Xiaoyu
Enter Chip again to discuss the development of special drugs with Xiaofeng.
"Xiao Feng, why is it so difficult to develop special medicines?" Fang Xiaoyu's mind entered Xiao Feng's control hall.
Xiaofeng showed his physical form and replied: "Master, this is a normal situation. The development of any kind of specific medicine is a very complicated process, not to mention that the medical level in this world is very low and the development speed is also slow."
Fang Xiaoyu nodded: "Indeed, I have also neglected the medical aspect. I also think that in this era without antibiotics, with penicillin, we can sit back and relax for a long time. Even traditional Chinese medicine is not a concern."
Xiaofeng said: "One medicine cannot cure all diseases. This is very normal. Master, you don't have to blame yourself. In fact, I have been conducting research on biomedicine, and I really don't do much research on Chinese herbal medicine and antibiotics."
Fang Xiaoyu said: "What I am most worried about now are the army soldiers in Madagascar. I wonder if there is any way to prevent me from getting infected."
Xiaofeng said: "Why do you have such an idea?"
Fang Xiaoyu said: "I want to go to Madagascar to visit those soldiers and boost their morale."
Xiaofeng said: "Your body has been modified by the chip and has partially acquired the powerful physique of future generations of Earthlings. You are completely immune to such low-level infectious diseases."
"Ah? Then you didn't tell me earlier." Fang Xiaoyu said, "I'm going to Madagascar first. You have to hurry up and develop a special medicine." After saying that, he left the chip space.
Xiaofeng said to himself: "If it weren't for the research on those special medicines, why would it have been delayed for so long? It seems that I have to pay attention to the development of special medicines for this low-level infectious disease."
In early June, Fang Xiaoyu ignored the advice of many officials and decided to take a boat to Madagascar to visit the soldiers of the expeditionary force who had lived there for more than half a year. The news shocked the world, and people began to speculate about the fate of the most powerful emperor in the world.
, was he going to make a show around the island, or was he really going to visit the soldiers? As a result, Fang Xiaoyu’s actions shocked the world. He actually left all the guards on the ship off the coast of Madagascar and transferred alone.
Zodiac landed on the island of Madagascar.
Fang Xiaoyu's approach not only shocked Lieutenant General Wan Yong, who was the commander of the escort fleet, but also shocked the army officers and soldiers stationed on the island of Madagascar. When they learned that Fang Xiaoyu came to the island in a single boat,
When he arrived, many officers and soldiers immediately went to greet him.
