Chapter 639 - Legionella and Anton

"Sir, did you find anything?" As Grigory walked out of the isolation room, the doctor, who had been waiting outside, immediately askedβ€”judging by Gregory's suddenly relaxed expression, he must have found the answer. "Well, but I still need some additional information, can you help me retrieve it?" Grigory nodded, and said so solemnly.

"We've got all the relevant information for you?" The doctor was stunned. "It should all be in that kid's hands now."

"No, I'm going to call up the medical results of all your doctors who have taken over these patients," Gregory said lightly. "It's not these patients who need to be diagnosed now, because their symptoms are already obvious – just give erythromycin. The problem lies in my diagnosis of you. ”

"To us?" The doctor didn't know why.

"The patient's home has an air conditioner that has not been cleaned for a long time, there is no definite dominant flora of Gram stains, extrapulmonary symptoms are extremely abundant, there are psychiatric disorders, penicillins, and eonβ€”" said Grigory, the doctor suddenly looked rather embarrassed. "Look, don't you already get the answer?"

"You mean, Legionnaires' disease?" The doctor hurriedly confirmed.

"Or else?" When Gregory saw that he had come up with this answer, he walked from his side to Chiba, who was holding a large lump of information. "Treat the symptoms and let them go home when they are cured. And then...... Further testing of the infected doctor. ”

"Didn't you say it's Legionnaires' disease?" The doctor felt that his brain was completely insufficient.

"The medical records say that you confirmed that the reason for his infection was the same sense of humor as the patients, but you ignored the details - he did not have a cough and did not have the same high fever as the patients. In other words, he may not have the exact same illness as these three people, and may even just be ......" Grigory said this, suddenly with a rather subtle expression. "I would venture to ask, did you test him for drugs? Even though you guys are infectious disease hospitals, I guess marijuana can explain it. Looking at the report closely, his carboxyhemoglobin is the same as that of the three patients, but I don't think he should have been like those patients may have done, because he turned on the air conditioner every day without opening the window, which led to a natural gas leak and then mild carbon monoxide poisoning. In that case, either he's a smoker, or he's smoking marijuana. And marijuana, it happens to be high in carboxyhemoglobin, the lungs are clouded and overexcited. ”

Doctor ...... and Qian Yu were a little silent at this time, because such a diagnosis based on a doctor smoking marijuana was a bit too shocking.

"Don't worry, it's just a guess," Grigory said, glancing at the former doctor in the isolation ward not far away. "Can I call him Patient D? The fourth patient, and the doctor...... Anyway, go and take D's temperature, and then take a blood test. Although what I just said is a wise saying, the simplest possibility is to check if his temperature also rises then I don't say anything. ”

……

"Marijuana? No. D, who had already clamped the prepared electronic thermometer, took the blood collection equipment from the retrieval passage of the isolation ward, and said as he sat back on the edge of the bed and began to operate. I am a law-abiding citizen, and I am a doctor with professional ethics, how could I do such a thing. ”

"Well, though I'd say everybody lies," Gregory shrugged, looking at D's gait. "But I'm still willing to wait until your test results are in."

"Well, can I see my test results?" After inserting the lancing device into his wrist, D said.

"No problem, I'll put the porter right away...... No, the porter can't come in, so I'll have to have the setter bring the piece in. Grigory glanced in Chiha's direction, and finally decided to use a gesture to order the doctor who could wear a hazmat suit to bring in the CT film in Chiha's hand.

About a minute and a half later, the physician walked outside the isolation chamber with the storage bag for the CT film, and D had already walked to the exchange tunnel with a thermometer and a sealed tube with enough blood.

"What's the temperature?" Gregory took the bag from the doctor's hand and stared at the electronic thermometer in D's hand.

"37.1 degrees, normal body temperature," D replied easily, sticking the side of the thermometer with the number on the glass. "It's not a big problem."

Gregory, on the other hand, suddenly looked like he had seen a ghost, and then frowned in thought.

"What's wrong?" D felt a little strange. "Won't you show me a CT?"

"......" Grigory finally gave the doctor a silent gesture, and then paced lightly to the side about a meter or so. And in the process, D just stood there and didn't react to it.

"yes!" Gregory suddenly made a loud noise, and even the doctors outside the other wards looked at him curiously, and D immediately turned his head to look at Grigory.

"Well, now that you've seen it, I'd like to think about it......" Gregory pouted, and stuck the bag with the CT scan to the glass like this - the bag was opaque and impossible for anyone to see the film.

"Huh?" The Medic had a puzzled look, but D was still very calm.

"Okay, let's look at this film," Gregory also didn't seem to realize that he hadn't taken it out, but instead talked about the CT chest X-ray that he couldn't even see. "It's similar to other patients, as you can see, you have similar shadows in your lungs, so even though you're a little bit further behind them, I think it's the same symptoms, you're just getting infected by one of them. Do you have any thoughts on this? ”

"Possibly, or rather, I think this should be the case," D nodded. "Considering that my body temperature is still normal, I think I will have a high fever for the next few days...... It's weird, I think I'm a little dizzy right now, but my body temperature is normal, only 37.1. ”

"Oh, that's what you think, so ......" Gregory narrowed his eyes slightly, looking carefully at the electronic thermometer in D's hand. So, please give us a little time next, because we may need to do some necessary tests and pathological judgments. ”

On the electronic thermometer, the displayed temperature is very clear 39.7 degrees Celsius.
