Chapter 1400: Evolution is Extremely Fast and Destruction is Great!
This scene came too quickly, Zhao Yuan and the others wanted to go over to help, but they couldn't have time. However, the people around, whether it was medical staff or patients, had already seen a lot of dead people, and they didn't even need medical personnel to do it, so some patients took the initiative to turn around and take out a body bag from the tent, and then several people worked together to put the deceased into the body bag, lift it up and walk to the northwest side of the isolation area.
"Where did they carry the bodies?" someone asked curiously.
Professor Kane replied: "In the northwest corner of the quarantine zone, a deep pit was dug. All the people who died, after being sprinkled with lime powder, will spread there. ”
"Why did you choose to bury instead of cremate?" Dr. White said with a frown.
Most patients with infectious diseases are cremated after death. Because the fire can not only burn the corpse to ashes, but also destroy the virus!
Professor Kane shook his head and replied, "In the beginning, we tried cremation. However, among the incinerated corpses, a strange and extremely pungent foul smell will be produced! At the same time, the virus will not be destroyed by the high temperature of the fire, but will become much more active, and spread along with the foul smell! Let all those who smell this foul smell be infected! Dr. Geralt and others were infected with the plague because of this. ”
"What? Dr. Geralt is suffering from the plague, and how is he doing now?" Wu Mingliang and Dr. White were shocked, and from their performance, they could know that this Dr. Geralt should be a very famous and powerful doctor in the medical community.
"He has died, just yesterday. Professor Kane sighed faintly, "When he died, his whole body festered, and there was hardly an inch of intact skin on his body, and the whole person seemed to have been skinned and tortured, and his appearance was miserable and terrifying to the extreme......
Even Professor Kane, when he recalled Dr. Geralt's dying appearance, couldn't help but look horrified and shuddered......
Dr. White was surprised and asked, "Wait, aren't the symptoms of this plague mainly high fever, diarrhea, and their derivative symptoms and complications?
Professor Kane replied, "The one you are talking about is a symptom of the early days of the plague. This damn plague has a strong ability to evolve, and every few days, some new destructive power is born. It is precisely because of this that our treatment has not been able to achieve too good results and progress. ”
Dr. White nodded, his expression serious and solemn for the first time: "I see...... It seems that this damn plague is really a bit tricky. ”
"Tricky......?" Professor Kane shook his head, seemingly unhappy with Dr. White's assessment. But he didn't say much, but led everyone and continued to walk towards the central area of the isolation medical base.
There, there is a red cross tent.
It is where medical teams from all over the world are stationed, and at the same time where they live and work.
On the way in the past, Zhao Yuan and the others saw some patients with ulcers all over their bodies.
As Professor Kane said earlier, all patients who have ulcerated skin are so badly rotten that they don't see a single intact part. The red flesh mixed with yellow-green pus, giving people a strong sense of horror. Even though everyone is an experienced medical worker, after seeing the tragic condition of these patients, they still have a strong feeling of discomfort.
Zhao Yuan didn't say much along the way, but turned on the Qi Observation Technique, looking at the patients who were isolated here.
After some observation, Zhao Yuan made a discovery, but he was still shocked and puzzled: "What accumulates in the bodies of these patients is a kind of fire poison evil qi, but it is different from most fire poison evil gases, there is a big difference, it is really strange......
Zhao Yuan opened the information leaf in his mind, called up Wu Peng's medical case, and searched for the medical records of related symptoms on it, wanting to see if he could get some inspiration and enlightenment from the experience and methods of his predecessors.
No one noticed Zhao Yuan's silence, because after seeing the situation in this isolation medical center, everyone fell into silence, even Dr. White, who was arrogant and extremely confident, frowned and straightened his face, and for the first time in his heart, he had doubts about whether he could cure this new type of plague......
Led by Professor Kane, the group arrived at the Red Cross tent area.
It's a hectic scene compared to the dead air outside.
Doctors and nurses in isolation gowns move from tent to tent, and patients in critical condition are being treated here.
The patients who are sent here are more urgent and more serious than those outside! Here, all kinds of painful moans and screams are mixed and mingled, forming the main tone, so that the medical staff must increase the volume and roar to communicate with each other. At the same time, because the patients who were sent here were the most serious and urgent, from time to time, patients would pass away - in the few minutes that Zhao Yuan and the others had just arrived here, three patients had died!
Wu Mingliang couldn't help but ask, "Professor Kane, how many people have died now because of this new type of plague?"
Professor Kane replied: "It is more than 1,000 people who claim it to the outside world. But in fact, the real death toll is about to exceed 10,000. Because all kinds of treatment methods do not have a good effect on it, at most it is just to delay the deterioration of the condition. So, for now, if you contract this disease, the mortality rate is almost 100%!"
As soon as these words came out, the members of the medical rescue teams in China and the United States were all shocked and shouted:
"What?!"
"There are so many deaths?"
"The SARS epidemic that was in a uproar back then, and the death toll was less than one-tenth of that of this new type of plague! It didn't take long for it to break out, right?!"
"This new type of plague is really terrifying! If we can't find a cure, once it spreads, the damage it will cause will probably be as devastating as the Black Death that swept through Europe in the Middle Ages!"
At this moment, everyone realized that they had come here not only for medical assistance, but for a terrible plague battle that was likely to destroy humanity!
Their expressions were extremely serious, and their hearts were full of fighting spirit.
Professor Kane saw their reactions, and it was rare that he didn't say anything discouraged. Because in his heart, he also expects that someone will stand up and lead everyone to cure this terrible plague that is enough to destroy all mankind!
