As soon as Ma Bihe left, Xiao Lingchuan frowned and came back from the camp in the north of the city. After he entered, he didn''t look at his son''s bean bag, but opened Li Haitang''s medicine box and found the disinfectant inside to clean his hands.
This series of actions surprised Li Haitang, "Husband..."
She stepped forward, held Xiao Lingchuan''s hand, and looked carefully, there was no wound on it.
"Nurse Yu, take the bean bag away!"
After Xiao Lingchuan finished speaking, he dragged his wife out, and the two of them walked to the gate of Qinghetang on foot.
I saw that at the door, there were people making noise.
Li Haitang raised her eyebrows. Recently, she has been distributing medicine and porridge in the border town. Two days have passed, howe there are still so many sick people?
The couple walked in through the back door, only to see old man He sitting on a chair without saying a word, and the waiters who followed him did not dare to say anything, their expressions were extremely nervous.
"Haitang, you are here, did you get the news?"
When old man He saw Li Haitang and his wife, he was not surprised at all. He waved his hand and asked them to sit down.
Know? what do you know? Li Haitang was confused, she was brought by her husband, seeing that Qing and the entrance of the hall were full ofmon people, so she went to the back door to have a look.
"Master, it''s just a small area of ??flooding. A few people contracted a cold, and the medicinal materials have been distributed. Why are you still surrounding the medical center?"
Li Haitang saw that there was a difference in old man He''s expression, so she sat up straight, "What''s the matter?"
Ma Bihe just came to see her, and when she mentioned the Majia Vige, she only felt that it had something to do with infectious diseases.
"Haitang, I''ll test you."
Old man He heard that many people in the town had symptoms of varying degrees, dizziness, nausea, vomiting, skin hymosis, bleeding, and swollen lymph nodes.
He went to apply the medicine, and he saw that one of the lymph nodes festered and festered, and the skin turned ck.
Although he didn''t have a pulse, such arge-scale illness reminded him of a terrible infectious disease.
"Is it the gue?"
Li Haitang stood up abruptly, clenched his fists with a nervous expression.
gue, also known as the ck Death, can be transmitted through rat flea bites, droplets, wound infections, etc., especially human-to-human breathing, talking, coughing, etc., which is very terrible.
The death cycle is short, sometimes only three to five days.
There were records in the history of Daqi that more than a hundred years ago, arge-scale gue broke out in the southwest, and more than a million people died in just a few months.
"Hai Tang, maybe I guessed wrong for my teacher."
Old Man He opened his mouth, and finally squeezed out a few dry words offort.
Li Haitang was heartbroken. Judging from the symptoms mentioned, it must be the gue.
Xiao Lingchuan should also have noticed that it was not easy, and the infectious disease wasing fiercely, so he went into the house to wash his hands, and took her directly to Qinghetang.
"I have to go to the magistrate. If the gue urs in a border town, immediately notify the city gate to close!"
As long as one person goes out, most people will be infected and spread, and the epidemic will not be controlled, and the consequences will be very serious!
Li Haitang''s heart was immediately tangled in one ce, and she was even worried that in the vige below, there were more people infected with the disease.
Small? Baozi is still young, and her resistance is not as good as that of an adult. She must takeprehensive protective measures.
This? For her, it was another difficult time. After all, the previous smallpox was already a nightmare.
The people have not had a good life for a long time. If there is anotherrge-scale gue, I am afraid that people will panic again.
Old man He is also worried. Judging from the current situation, there are more bad luck than good luck.
Sure enough, their worries became reality.
In just a few days, the main residences in the border town and the medical clinics in the neighborhood were crowded with arge number of people. Everyone had the same symptoms, all apanied by varying degrees of fever and nausea.
The magistrate of the border city received the news sent by Li Haitang, and at first he was extremely hesitant. If it wasn''t as serious as he imagined, closing the city gate privately would have a huge impact.
It''s not winter now, there are many merchants traveling from north to south, bartering from north to south, if it is food and other items, if they can''t be delivered, they will be broken when the weather is hot.
But???? If the gue really breaks out, the border town will be an isted and empty city. As a parent official, how can he watch the people wait to die?
Dilemma between left and right, the magistrate thought about the smallpox, if Lucheng hadn''t closed the city gate in time, many people in the border town would have been affected.
After the city gate was closed, the people in the city panicked and cried for their fathers and mothers. Within a few days, the death toll increased sharply.
Arge number of city people flocked to the countryside to seek refuge with their rtives, which resulted in the expansion of the area of ??infection.
Ma Dashan in Majia Vige is not a source of infection. Because of the gue, many people in Majia Vige have died.
"Wu Fu, have you sent out all the letters?"
Before the city gate was closed, Li Haitang sent a letter to Zhang Ruyi in Kyoto, and Chunniang, who was looking for rtives in other ces, informing them that the situation in the north was serious, and asked them to stay in the south temporarily ande back when things improved.
"Ma''am, all the letters have been delivered."
Wufu nodded. She had just returned home to take a look at the vige. Although there were no symptoms of infection in the vige, the vigers were very panicked and hid at home on Sunday, not daring to go out.
"Wu Fu, how is your family doing?"
Li Haitang saw that although Wu Fu looked nervous, but he was in good condition, he guessed that everything was safe at home.
However, there are too many ways for the gue to spread, even if it does note into contact with people, it can also be transmitted through rat fleas.
"Everything is fine at home, and so is the vige, but when the people in the vige saw meing back, they kept away from me as if they were guarding against thieves."
Wu Fu curled his lips, thinking of the expressions of the vigers, he was still a little bit suffocated.
She went back to do good deeds, and distributed the rat-killing powder to each family, but the result was so good that she didn''t even enter the door.
"They let me throw it in from outside the courtyard."
It''s really hard to be a good person, and still be guarded against by people as the source of infection, get rejected, and have to face the cold faces of the vigers.
For a moment, Wu Fu wanted to turn around and leave, but then she thought about it, if the people in the vige really got the gue, it would soon infect her parents.
Being convenient with others is convenient for herself, she endured it.
Although my own vige was fine, many people died in the neighboring vige, most of them had high fever and vomiting blood, and there was no room for turning around when they were discovered.
By the fourth month of the lunar calendar, the weather became hotter and the high temperature continued, aggravating the spread of the gue.
gue is not the same as smallpox. The vines needed are all chemical preparations. In Daqi, the conditions are limited, and Li Haitang is helpless.
On the day of his diagnosis in Majia Vige with his master He Laotou, after Li Haitang calmed down, he did a lot of things.
Communicate with the yamen, discuss ways to treat gue patients, and call on themon people to make hats, masks, gloves and other things for the most basic protection.
The door of the house is closed. Unless there is something important, it is best for the family not to go out. ???? Every morning and evening, the room should be cleaned, and the master He Laotou specially made anti-mosquito bite medicinal materials to remove mice and fleas.
