Chapter 595: Bacteria Warrior, Successfully Learned to Treat Febrile Diseases
There have been many successful cases of using poison to fight poison in the history of traditional Chinese medicine.
Strictly speaking, this unknown fungus is also a kind of life, but it is a microorganism, a bit like mayflies, born in the morning and dead in the evening, and has a short life span.
Of course, the individual life cycle of fungi is many times longer than that of mayflies.
In a suitable temperature and humid environment, some scientists have even discovered that fungi can survive for more than 100,000 years.
The expert proposed using poison to kill the unknown fungi. This treatment concept is not uncommon. Chemotherapy for leukemia and cancer is somewhat similar to fighting poison with poison.
"Expert Shui Zhenqing proposed a treatment plan of using poison to fight poison, which is very good. However, this needs to be tested in the laboratory first to make sure it will not threaten the patient's life before it can be used clinically. I wonder if Expert Shui Zhenqing has done the corresponding experiment?"
Leader He is quite optimistic about the strategy of fighting poison with poison.
"I... haven't yet. But I can provide some drugs and corresponding safe doses to the CDC and let the CDC staff conduct experiments on my behalf."
Expert Shui Zhenqing's eyes flashed.
Almost everyone avoids this terrible unknown fungus . These experts are all of high status, so they are more or less reluctant to conduct experiments themselves and come into contact with unknown fungi.
You should know that this unknown fungus can be transmitted through contact.
After all, the safety performance of protective clothing is not 100% effective.
Even if its protection capability is as high as 99.99%, there is still a certain risk of infection.
At present, no effective treatment plan has been developed, and once infected, it is almost certain to die.
So we can’t blame this Shui Zhenqing expert for being cunning and deceitful.
In this world, not everyone is fearless about life and death. The vast majority of people are afraid of death.
"Expert Shui Zhenqing, I will now officially appoint you as the leader of the poison-to-poison test team. You will lead the scientific research team to conduct experiments on which drugs can be safely used in patients and what dosage can effectively kill the unknown fungi floating in the blood."
Leader He handed the task to Shui Zhenqing with a serious face.
"Well...thank you for your trust, Leader He. I will do my best." Expert Shui Zhenqing agreed reluctantly.
It’s just that the country usually supports these people with high salaries, and now that the time has come to hire people, he has no way to refuse.
Train your soldiers for a thousand days and use them in one moment.
If they are afraid to stand up at critical moments and have no sense of responsibility, then why keep them?
"I also have a treatment idea for your reference."
Another expert spoke up.
All the people present here are professionals, and those who can become experts are basically quite capable and have real knowledge.
"Expert Zhao Haitang, please speak!" Leader He looked at this person.
"There was once an area in the island country that was infested with mosquitoes because of humidity and temperature. For a period of time, a large number of blood-sucking flower-legged mosquitoes suddenly appeared in the area.
They carry multiple viruses and spread a variety of diseases crazily.
The spread of malaria and dengue fever is particularly severe.
In order to protect the lives of the people, local public health agencies have come up with many ways to kill mosquitoes, but the results have not met expectations because mosquitoes have a particularly strong reproductive capacity.
It is especially terrible in warm and humid environments.
Using pesticides to kill them not only creates a lot of pesticide residues and pollutes the local environment, but also makes them inexhaustible.
If you kill one batch, several more batches will immediately reproduce.
Later, there was really no other way but to issue a reward and invite some private scientific research institutions in the society to come up with ideas and find ways to eliminate mosquitoes.
With the incentive of huge sums of money, a microbiology research institute actually came up with a good idea.
They captured a group of local mosquitoes and brought them back for research, and then bred a type of male mosquito that was not capable of second-generation reproduction.
Once a female mosquito mates with this type of male mosquito, the mosquitoes she gives birth to will not be able to reproduce again.
It almost means extinction of the entire race.
As many as one million special male mosquitoes were released in batches, allowing them to survive in the wild and freely find suitable female mosquitoes to mate with. In the end, even the mosquitoes that could not be eliminated by large-scale use of pesticides were wiped out by these one million male mosquitoes.
Because the life cycle of mosquitoes is generally only about ten days.
Even some powerful female mosquitoes can only survive for about a hundred days at most.
When wild female mosquitoes mate with the special male mosquitoes bred by scientists, the young mosquitoes they produce are infertile. It is conceivable that the huge mosquito family has been wiped out without anyone noticing.
The treatment ideas proposed by this expert named Zhao Haitang made everyone present shine.
This method of breeding special male mosquitoes in large quantities and then releasing them into the wild to allow them to find female mosquitoes on their own saves time and effort and is also particularly environmentally friendly.
"Expert Zhao, do you mean to find a way to cultivate a strain that can make this unknown fungus extinct?" asked a scholar.
"Fungi generally reproduce on their own, there is no such thing as seeding." Zhao Haitang's face twitched twice. The scholar who asked the question was probably thinking with his feet.
Where do male and female fungi come from?
It is undeniable that there are experts among the experts.
Just like there is a beast in the professor.
"So what do you mean?"
The scholar's old face was slightly smoked.
Scholars are generally very dignified and have a strong sense of self-esteem. This scholar was somewhat embarrassed when he was scolded by expert Zhao in public.
"What I mean is to find a beneficial fungus or bacteria that can kill this unknown fungus, inject them into the human body, let them become our warriors, and help us eliminate these unknown fungi."
Zhao Haitang expressed his treatment ideas with a little complacency.
This approach is extremely feasible.
Even better than fighting fire with fire.
"This is a really good suggestion, with a unique and original idea. It would be great if we could really find a fungus or bacteria that can kill unknown fungi. Expert Zhao Haitang, I wonder if you have made any further research progress?"
Leader He rarely smiled.
"To be honest, I have indeed carried out some experiments with my research team. We have made some progress, but we have not found a particularly good fungus fighter, or microbe fighter."
Expert Zhao Haitang is obviously a man of action.
He had already led the team to carry out experimental research. In this respect, he was much more responsible than the Shui Zhenqing expert.
"Very good! Please continue your research with your team. If you need any resources, you can apply to me and I will allocate them directly." Leader He expressed his attitude and said he would fully support the research of Zhao Haitang's team.
Leaders are not stupid. They know clearly in their minds who is loyal and who is treacherous, who is working seriously, and who is most likely to achieve results.
…
This urgently convened research meeting lasted for more than seven hours.
Experts and scholars rushed to speak and provided many useful treatment plans or suggestions.
The fact that so many medical experts, scholars, and professors have worked together for so many days and still have not been able to come up with a practical treatment plan does not mean that their level is poor.
It is even more impossible to say that they are all fools.
But this unknown fungus is really too terrifying.
Intense research is ongoing.
Many experts are leading their teams to conduct further research.
What we need most now is time.
I believe that as long as we study for a year or two, we will definitely make some significant progress.
In human history, the number of viruses, fungi, and bacteria that have been conquered is actually countless.
Although humans have only a 6 million year history, we have become the top species on this blue planet.
It can dominate almost all living things on this planet.
Whether it is a whale that is thirty meters long and weighs twenty or thirty tons in the ocean, or a ferocious lion or tiger on land, or bacteria and viruses that are so small that they are invisible to the naked eye, we humans have ways to eliminate them.
In the isolation ward, Li Quan woke up again.
As soon as he woke up, he felt as if his skin was cut by a knife, and the pain was so severe that even his breathing was trembling.
Li Quan gritted his teeth, forced himself to sit up, and lowered his head to check the skin on his arms, back of his hands and other parts of his body.
There is no need for a magnifying glass, you can directly see cracks ranging from a few microns to a few millimeters. You can see bright red tender flesh under the cracked skin.
No blood came out.
This unknown fungus seems to only damage the skin and does not attack the body's blood vessels.
Perhaps this is the reason why the patient does not die immediately.
Instead, they will be skinned and flayed alive.
"Ouch... It hurts so much. Will I die?"
Ye Ru was crying there and shouting in pain.
After all, Li Quan practiced the Five Animal Exercises breathing method, so his physique was much better than that of ordinary people.
Professor Hawking, Ye Ru and others are now in a state of extreme weakness and pain. Apart from feeling a tingling sensation on the skin, Li Quan's breathing, vision, thinking, etc. have not been greatly affected.
When he woke up, the first thing he did was go to the toilet.
Eat and drink as quickly as possible, and then take the time to read Wu Tang's "Treatise on Febrile Diseases".
After learning Ye Gui's two miraculous medical skills, his efficiency and speed in reading Wu Tang's medical book increased dozens of times.
In the ward, apart from the painful crying and shouting of Professor Hawking's daughter-in-law, granddaughter, Ye Ru and others, the only sound was Li Quan turning pages of a book.
It won't be long before you turn the page.
Li Quan is racing against death.
He wanted to use his last moments of consciousness to finish reading the medical book, saving himself while also fulfilling the promise he made to Ye Ru to cure her.
…
Time flies by so fast.
Only at the end of life can we realize how precious time is.
In the past, Li Quan used days, months and years to calculate time. Now, he uses seconds to calculate time.
Every second that passed was a second less of his wakefulness.
It was almost three forty in the morning when Li Quan finally finished reading the last page.
According to experience, he will fall into a coma in twenty minutes at most.
Then, when he wakes up tomorrow, he will need to be tied up like Professor Hawking and others.
Because they cannot bear the inhuman pain, they will go crazy.
[You have successfully finished reading Wu Tang's original work "Treatise on Febrile Diseases", favorability +100. ]
“It’s the original indeed!”
A look of joy appeared on Li Quan's face.
This smile made the cracks on his face a little bigger, and he felt the piercing pain again.
“Hiss~!”
He gasped in pain.
Li Quan quickly stopped smiling.
"I must hurry up and see if there is any medical skill that specifically treats febrile diseases. I hope that the Buddhas and Taoist immortals will bless me so that I can learn how to treat febrile diseases this time."
Li Quan, who usually never believed in these things, was now muttering like a fortune teller.
Trembling inwardly, he opened the list of redemption for Miracle Healing Skills.
List of Wu Tang's medical skills.
[Specialized in treating febrile diseases, can treat most plagues, requires 100 points of favorability, can be exchanged. ]
There is only one medical skill, and it is extremely expensive.
When Li Quan saw clearly that this medical skill was what he urgently needed, he could no longer hold back and laughed out loud, with tears streaming down his face.
Crying and laughing, maybe this refers to him now.
When he tilted his head back, the skin on his neck and other parts of his body was stretched, the cracks widened, and he gasped in pain again.
Ye Ru and others in the ward, including the medical staff, all looked at Li Quan as if he were a fool.
Everyone had only one thought: Li Quan must be crazy.
Because this kind of inhuman pain is really not something that ordinary people can endure.
It is normal for people to suffer from mental disorders.
"Dean, you must hold on. Didn't you promise me that you would persevere to the end and successfully find a way to treat this unknown fungus?"
"You have always been my idol. I don't want to see your will collapse before I die. I like you to be like a god, as omnipotent as ever. Is that okay?"
Ye Ru turned to look at Li Quan with tears in her eyes.
At this moment, she was tied to the hospital bed.
The medical staff did this to prevent her from harming herself.
Even in extreme pain, Ye Ru was still able to turn around and comfort Li Quan. What a deep love this is.
Li Quan felt a warm feeling in his heart.
It was not in vain that I accepted this female disciple.
Li Quan did not speak, and did not even look at Ye Ru. He had little time left, so he had to hurry up and learn the treatment of febrile diseases first, and then learn the treatment of grave diseases.
Until now he still couldn't understand why the treatment of grave diseases seemed to be more advanced than the treatment of warm diseases?
It is obvious that grave diseases are also caused by bacteria, fungi, and viruses.
The same is true for febrile diseases.
There shouldn't be much difference between the two.
【exchange.】
Li Quan exchanged for the medicine for treating febrile diseases without hesitation.
After learning it, many plague treatment methods, cases, experiences, etc. appeared in his mind.
He remembered that it was not enough to just learn the treatment of warm diseases. He had to improve this miraculous medical skill to a minor level before he could learn the treatment of grave diseases.
This is really terrible.
In his current condition, where can he find some patients infected with the plague to treat him?
[Because you have successfully learned Ye Gui's two medical skills, febrile disease differentiation and epidemic treatment, and Ye Gui is Wu Tang's master, so your febrile disease treatment skill has skill points +100. ]
Just when Li Quan was worried, he was pleasantly surprised to find that his expertise in treating febrile diseases had been upgraded.
Every sip and every bite is determined by fate.
At that time, Li Quan was very disappointed when he failed to find the special treatment for febrile diseases he needed while learning Ye Gui's miraculous medical skills.
I didn't expect to reap so many benefits unexpectedly.
