Chapter 375 Wounded
"Hurry up, hurry up!" Just as Liang En was listening to an old man telling the story of hunting seals on the frozen ocean in the patrol office, a big man in a jacket pushed the door open and rushed in. shouted.

"Can anyone help me, my kid has been hurt badly and now he's vomiting blood all the time."

After hearing the cry for help, the boss in front of Liang En immediately stood up with an agility that didn't match his age, then looked at the middle-aged man and asked, "Mir, what's the matter with your child?"

"When we went fishing, a rope on the boat was not fixed properly. As a result, the rope came loose when the boat turned, and then it was pulled directly on his chest." The middle-aged man named Mir quickly Said.

"He keeps complaining of chest pains and coughing up blood, so I want to borrow the patrol plane to send my child to the city for rescue."

"But the plane can't take off in today's weather." Looking at the howling wind outside, the old patrol member said helplessly, "It's not that we don't want to, but we really can't do it."

"Then what should I do?" After hearing what the old patrolman said, Mir squatted on the ground as if he had lost all his strength, and then covered his hair with his hands and let out a sobbing sound.

"Is there no hospital in this town?" Joan of Arc asked a little puzzled after seeing this scene. "Why don't you send the wounded to the hospital as soon as possible?"

"Xiao Mier should already be in the hospital, but the hospital here only has a few volunteer doctors. Common minor illnesses can be treated, but serious illnesses cannot be cured. Injuries like this are completely beyond the scope of treatment."

Speaking of this, the old patrol member shook his head helplessly. The infrastructure in this Canadian aboriginal area is poor, and various staff shortages have become a norm, so they sometimes have to bear this unnecessary loss .

The current situation is mainly caused by the backward and obviously discriminatory policies of the Canadian side towards the aborigines. Leaving aside the notorious boarding schools, the dilapidated buildings in the port where Liang En is now are far beyond his expectations.

And from the previous chat, he learned that although there are 400 houses registered in this area, this is actually a conclusion drawn by including abandoned houses, warehouses, storage rooms and even toilets, and even half of them are not less than.

According to a yacht staff member who came together, they had been to the Far East of Russia before, thinking that the people living in that place were already bad enough, but they never thought that Canada, whose per capita income was several times that of Russia, would be even worse.

Although it is theoretically stipulated that these Inuit people can get a lot of subsidies, in fact, the subsidies have turned around and returned to Canadians.

For example, few people in the entire town can get the 3000-5000 Canadian dollars in unemployment and welfare benefits for the aboriginal people, because the aboriginal fishing and hunting, or even going to the mine to work as a temporary worker will be defined as work by the welfare officer and will not be paid.

In some places, 3000-5000 Canadian dollars may be enough to live for a month, but in this town in the Arctic Circle, the harsh environment greatly increases the cost of survival, and sometimes this money is not even enough to survive .

At the same time, due to discriminatory policies, fewer and fewer aborigines maintain their original lives.This is mainly because the Canadian government exploited various minerals in the local area to wreak havoc on the environment while encouraging environmental groups to criticize the traditional hunting practices of the Aboriginal people.

Because of the attacks from environmental protection organizations, the cost of holding guns and hunting has greatly increased for indigenous people. For example, locals may spend thousands or even tens of thousands of Canadian dollars for these rights, but whites only need a few hundred dollars.

However, since there are no particularly valuable minerals in Yoa Port, this restriction is not serious. If it is placed in places with gold mines and natural gas in the south, it may cost 10,000+ Canadian dollars for these documents.

Even the pollution of the mining industry, which the Canadian media completely ignored, shouted the whitewashing sentence that "the damage to the ecology caused by indigenous hunting is worse than mining a hundred gold mines".

But on the other hand, Canada sells hunting licenses almost unlimitedly. Before Liang En and the others came here, in order to avoid legal problems caused by killing wild animals in the process of self-defense, they specially purchased polar bear hunting licenses. More than [-] yuan, and there is no limit at all.

So under such circumstances, Canadian officials will naturally not invest too much in the medical care of this place.All the hospitals in the city have only two general practitioners and six nurses, and various medical facilities are not perfect.

"I think our ship should be able to provide emergency treatment." Skold, who disembarked together, suddenly said at the side at this time, "I have a small operating room on board, with complete medicines and equipment, and the doctors on board are also good at Dealing with all kinds of trauma."

"Really?" Mir squatted on the side and stood up abruptly, then looked at Mr. Scudder.

"At least it's better than the so-called hospital on your side, so if you trust me, quickly lift the person to my boat, and get ready for blood transfusion."

After speaking, Mr. Scudder immediately reported the current situation to the ship through the walkie-talkie and asked the ship to prepare.And Liang En and Joan of Arc followed Mir into the strong wind outside and prepared to carry the wounded.

Soon, Liang En and the others entered the crude hospital, and carried a stretcher onto the boat together with a nurse trained in surgical care and several patrol members who had followed the patrol team just now.

As soon as they boarded the ship, they followed the crew's instructions to the meeting room and operating room that had been cleaned and disinfected, and then put the wounded on the table.

"Except for the nurse, everyone else is leaving here now." The doctor in surgical gown looked at everyone on the field and said, "The nurse hastened to disinfect and prepare to be my assistant."

When the nurse was preparing, the doctor quickly pulled the X-ray machine over and took a picture, and then said to the ready nurse. "Four broken ribs caused one of the broken bones to insert into the lung and induce a hemothorax, which required a thoracotomy."

This whole set of equipment was prepared by Skold for the expedition. After all, as a rich person, he generally prefers to save his life, so even the expedition method is different from that of ordinary people.

Although it takes a lot of money to prepare such a well-equipped operating room that can even perform many operations and hire corresponding doctors, rich people are willing to pay for this cost for their own lives.

It's just that the medical system on the ship was completely useless during the previous expedition. I didn't expect that the first person to enjoy it was a young patrol member in the Arctic region.

Outside the operating room, Mir turned around anxiously, and from time to time, with his hands stained with the blood that his child had just spat out, he pawed at the door and looked inside anxiously.

"Relax, your son should be able to get through it." Liang En and Joan of Arc pushed the cart at this time, handed the freshly brewed milk tea to everyone waiting here, and then clapped Mill's shoulder.

"That's right, my doctor said it was a hemothorax caused by a broken rib inserted into the lung. It's not too difficult to treat, and your child will be fine." Scudder also walked over with his cup Edge comforted me.
