Chapter 278 Serum
Charlotte has become delirious, and the only person between Charles and Margaret is Chen Ling.
“Marburg virus?” Chen Ling asked about this name for the first time, “More powerful than Ebola? Can you cure it?”
Doctor Margaret had a smile on her face, which was blocked by the protective suit, and Chen Ling couldn’t see it.
“Mr. Chen, Marburg virus disease and Ebola virus disease are both powerful infectious diseases. It is hard to say which one is more severe.” Dr. Margaret said, “Marburg virus is relatively rare, so the public is relatively unfamiliar with it. There is also relatively little research on it. Mr. Chen, you may not know that the first person to be infected with Marburg virus disease was a French, also called Shire, who was infected in Mount Ergon, East Africa.”
“Oh… is he dead?” Chen Ling asked.
“He died, and the doctor who treated him was also infected, but he recovered and is still alive.”
Chen Ling’s eyes lit up: “Can you invite him? He should be very experienced.”
“You want to invite him? Our current treatment plan is based on the plan he proposed, and he has treated the patient in his entire life, and he does not explain how he recovered.”
Chen Ling understood, and he took out the cold in his heart.
With this disease, it’s up to fate.
Charlotte’s symptoms are so severe, can you survive it? I am infected too, can I live? Chen Ling closed his eyes in pain.
Charles and Margaret looked at each other, and Charles nodded slightly.
“Mr. Chen…” Margaret had already spoken, and was interrupted by Chen Ling.
“Why do I have no symptoms?” Chen Ling asked, opening his eyes, “I am also infected, but only a little fever, only 38 degrees. This is not a symptom of Marburg virus disease, right?”
Margaret explained: “Mr. Chen, people who have been infected by the virus have different behaviors. Your situation is rare, but it is not impossible. Marburg virus disease has a 90% fatality rate, and the remaining 10% are mostly They all survived by themselves, and a small part of them have very mild symptoms. I think you are such a small part, the chosen son of heaven!”
Chen Ling took a deep breath, then sighed long, and said, “Please save Charlotte, she shouldn’t die like this!”
“We are trying our best to save her. She is still young and in good physical condition. She has a great chance to recover.” Margaret said, “We want to take some samples from her. Send it to Europe for virus isolation, which is conducive to future scientific research.”
“As long as it helps to treat her illness, you can do it.” Chen Ling was depressed, “Can I do anything?”
Unexpectedly, Chen Ling agreed to this and said: “You have to take a good rest. We will regularly take your temperature and replenish electrolytes to keep your body in top condition…”
“What can I do for Charlotte?” Chen Ling asked.
“This… you have done a lot for her. Mr. Chen, it is not our exaggeration. In Africa, and even in Europe, we are absolutely at the forefront of medical institutions that can treat filovirus infectious diseases. Please trust us. ”
Chen Ling said: “You were diagnosed so quickly and found the root cause of Charlotte’s illness. Of course I believe you. Look, is there anything I can use for me? Can I help Charlotte? Some books are With this written, if you feed healthy human blood to a sick person, the patient will heal…”
Drinking blood to treat diseases has no scientific basis and is a kind of superstition. Human blood enters from the mouth, and finally flows into the human stomach. It can only supplement the body with nutrients. It has the same effect as eating duck blood and pig blood, and has no cure effect.
But Chen Ling hadn’t considered these anymore.
Two highly qualified doctors are familiar with this. When people’s lives are threatened, they dare to do everything and think about everything, as long as they can increase the chance of survival a little bit.
“Drinking blood… I’m afraid it won’t work.” Margaret said euphemistically, “However, blood transfusion is possible. Charlotte’s bleeding is serious, we have prepared blood, and we can replenish Charlotte at any time.”
Chen Ling lifted his spirits and asked, “Can I give her blood? I have blood type O.”
Marguerite said: “You are also an infected patient, we are not good at collecting your blood…”
“Margaret!” Charles, who had not spoken all the time, said suddenly, “I want to discuss with you. Mr. Chen, please wait a moment.”
Charles took Margaret to the corner and whispered.
Chen Ling’s security system has always maintained an early warning state, so Chen Ling listened to their conversation clearly.
“Draw my blood to make serum! No problem!” Chen Ling couldn’t wait to say loudly.
The couple did not expect to be heard by Chen Ling, so they turned around and discussed in front of Chen Ling.
“Mr. Chen, this matter still needs to be discussed.” Charles said, “In the past literature and cases, it is possible to inject the serum of convalescent patients into early patients, which may be effective. Now we are not in this situation, so… …”
Chen Ling stood up and said, “Try it! I am infected, but there are no symptoms, indicating that I have antibodies in my body. Draw more blood, make more serum, and inject it into Charlotte!”
“This… there is no precedent, there may be other risks, we have to discuss it!” Dr. Margaret said.
“You have discussed it just now!” Chen Ling blushed.
Dr. Shire said: “Mr. Chen, we have to discuss with colleagues outside the hospital. You will give us some time. Now Charlotte’s symptoms are relatively stable and we must proceed with caution. If you rashly inject your serum into her body, May cause other problems. Please give us some time to discuss!”
Chen Ling already knew that injecting serum was a possible option. He was anxious and helpless, resisting the urge to activate the Ecstasy Array skills, and said: “Discuss quickly! Discuss quickly!”
…
Dr. Mike received the diagnosis information shared by Dr. Shire and immediately passed the information through the Pan-African Medical System, and at the same time notified the World Health Organization and the African Union.
The Marburg virus reappears in the world. This is an incredible event. If it spreads, according to Sierra Leone’s sanitary conditions, there will be countless deaths and injuries.
The Ministry of Health of Sierra Leone was not the first to get the news, with a blank face. In order to save face, it immediately organized experts to the Fulani territory in the Kono region.
However, the experts rushed to the Kono area, only to find that every village and tribe had already taken the initiative to isolate them. This is the survival wisdom of Africans for thousands of years. As long as there is an infectious disease, the best way is to sever contact. When the people in the village or tribe with the infectious disease die or survive, everyone continues to live normally.
The Ministry of Health was slapped again, and the public criticized the corpse-bit vegetarian meal. The fire even burned the President, and the President had to take measures, gritted his teeth, and paid for urgently purchasing a batch of testing and protective equipment.
Soon, several cases of Marburg virus were detected, and then the entire Kono area was sealed off.
At this time, Augustine, Betis, and Liu Ya just finished the transaction procedures, and 60% of the Tangkelili iron ore mining rights officially belonged to Chen Ling.
Augustine obtained the mining rights to the diamond mine, but because of the blockade of the Kono area, he was unable to mine for a short period of time. He wanted to cry without tears.
Betis braved the epidemic to return to his ancestral village. Because she completed the soul-calling that hadn’t been completed for decades and defeated the powerful robbers who came to rob diamonds, she peaked in Fulani’s prestige and status for a time, and her fame spread to all Fulani tribes in Africa.
…
Chen Ling waited for an hour in Ward 4, and Dr. Shire came in with a nurse.
“Mr. Chen, we decided to inject Charlotte with serum. We want to draw 200 ml of your blood.”
“Pump 400ml!” Chen Ling raised his arm.
“200 ml is enough.” Dr. Shire said, “it is useless. We can’t guarantee that it will work, but everyone thinks it’s worth a try.”
