Surgeons dressed as poor people in the Republic of China

"Selling newspapers and selling newspapers, various departments jointly issued a "Report to Hangzhou Residents", hoping to tide over the difficulties with the people."

"Selling newspapers and selling newspapers, various departments jointly issued a "Report to the Residents of Hangzhou". There is a cluster of plague infections in Dongxian County. I hope the public will not go there in the near future."

In the early morning of the next day, with the sound of the first rooster crowing, the city in the south of the Yangtze River started another busy day. The breakfast shops on both sides of the street were filled with white mist, and newsboys shouted loudly, running from the street to the end of the alley.

"Plague? Hangzhou also has it? Newsboy, give me a copy."

"There's a plague in Dongxian County? Isn't this thing happening in the north? Why is it happening in Hangzhou? Give me a copy too." The customers who had breakfast in the breakfast shop stopped the little newsboy one after another.

"Okay!" The newsboy responded quickly, trotting all the way over, the heat in the breakfast shop made his face slightly numb after being frozen all morning, the feeling of numbness after being frozen was not good, and the little newsboy He wiped his face with the newspaper.

This breakfast shop is economical, whether it is a company employee in a suit or a hard worker, they are all willing to solve their breakfast here.

"Mr. Zhou, what did you read to us in the newspaper? It doesn't mean that the Shilaozi plague has spread to our city." A man in a short jacket drank the noodle juice in one gulp. He turned to look at the young man in a Chinese tunic suit and glasses on the table next to him.

"Okay, then I'll read it." The young man readily agreed and opened the newspaper he just bought.

"The "Letter to the Residents of Hangzhou", the New Year is approaching, it should be a time for family reunion and joy, but the plague is rampant in the north, and some people who have the plague go down the railway to Hangzhou. In the east county of our city, more than [-] people are infected with the plague today. Panic.

This disease started from the north and spread thousands of miles at every turn. No matter men, women, old or young, they will get sick when they touch it. Now that Hangzhou is infected with the disease, we have thought about it for a long time and finally wrote this book. Hangzhou is a city of 55 people. If you are born here and grow up here, you don't want your homeland to be ravaged by the disease..."

Following the reading aloud by Mr. Zhou, many customers in the breakfast shop put down their bowls and chopsticks and stood up, and even many passers-by stopped to listen.

"There are the following points, I hope you will abide by them. First, cooperate with the self-examination. The plague is the king of the plague. There is no medicine and stone, and there are almost no survivors. One person is infected, and it is ten miles away. Ten rooms and nine diseases... The second... "

"We really have the plague here..." The passers-by listened blankly, first they were afraid and panicked, and the photos of the piles of corpses in Changgang in the newspapers were still vivid in their eyes, and then the newspapers told them that the plague was a thing of the past. There are also in the city, and it is still in Dongxian County?

Many people showed obvious panic on their faces, and those who were a little older and experienced the catastrophe 20 years ago would only repeat, "This is what to do, what to do."

As said in the letter to the residents, those people in Hangzhou were born and grew up here, and now they don’t have convenient transportation for future generations. Most of the people at this time have never even gone out of the small village they live in. escape?where to escape?

"Establish Huaning Hospital as the quarantine point for the urban plague. If any citizens find a person suffering from plague, they will be sent to Huaning Hospital for treatment..." Mr. Zhou couldn't help but patted the table hard after reading this.

"Those who eat public food, this time they are courageous. Huaning Hospital is still a new hospital area that has not yet been opened. This is the best hospital in Hangzhou. It takes more than a month to wait for an account. My salary is small. Those who are so sick that they dare not go in, but they are actually used to isolate and treat plague patients, it seems that they really want to save people, not just lock them up and let them fend for themselves.” Mr. Zhou sighed.

The common people started to discuss in a rustling manner. They had naturally heard the name of Huaning Hospital, but just like the 30s when transportation was inconvenient, many people had never taken a train in their lives. Similarly, in a place where medical resources were scarce In the 30s, many ordinary people had never been to a hospital in their lifetime.

The medical expenses that cost a few silver dollars are not something ordinary people can afford.

Now the newspapers are actually saying that the hospital that can handle the plague will treat them for free and provide them with food. This suddenly gave many people the illusion that the plague is nothing to be afraid of.

Didn’t the newspaper also say that the plague spreads through the mouth and nose, and as long as they wear a mask to cover their mouth and nose, they will not be infected? The newspaper also drew a picture of how to make a mask.

"The plague is terrible, but it is even more terrible when people are confused. Rumors and rumors are spreading, which is the most dangerous image. Everyone should know that my city is rich and rich, and medicine and other resources are abundant. Containing the spread of the plague is the most important thing. Hangzhou is a city of 55 Hangzhou people, and we are few in strength. We need everyone to work together, unite sincerely, and seek stability together..."

The young man's voice was loud, drifting around with the winter breeze.

This kind of scene happened not only in this breakfast shop, but also in various companies and schools. Following the newsboys' hawking, literate people in the streets and alleys spontaneously explained the "Letter to the Residents of Hangzhou City" in the newspaper to the surrounding people.

There are more than two thousand words, eloquent, from the current situation of the plague to the preventive measures, and almost swearing that they will never let the people who suffer from the plague commit suicide, they will do their best to treat them, and list specific countermeasures one by one, so as to calm people's hearts At the same time, he also asked the people that if anyone has a good suggestion, they can send the letter to the newspaper office and work together to save their hometown.

This report to the residents is sincere and practical, and the flustered hearts of many people seem to settle down at once.They think, yes, Hangzhou is rich and has abundant medical resources. As long as everyone works together, there is no need to worry about the plague. It survived 20 years ago. Now it is much better than it was 20 years ago. 20 years ago How can you not do what you could do before?

"Liang's cloth industry sells medical gauze and masks!" Outside the door of a Liang's cloth shop, a worker moved a chair and pasted a large "Letter to Hangzhou Residents" at the door, "In order to support the epidemic, masks and medical gauze are Selling at cost price, each person can only buy one mask and one piece of medical gauze per day, don’t hoard it!”

In Huaning Hospital, Tang Chuanfang and others cleared out the new hospital area overnight, and the black uniforms of the police station surrounded it with a cordon, leaving only one place to enter and exit.

The whole city of Hangzhou is like an orderly machine, running slowly but firmly.

At the same time, since the "Letter to the Residents of Hangzhou" was published and won a lot of applause, the literati in Hangzhou seemed unwilling to be lonely. The "Plague Proposal", "On the Plague" and other articles were more talented than the other. It is more inspiring than one, and the articles in the major newspapers in Hangzhou are very lively.

At this time, Ye Yibai had already rushed to Dong County with the temporary medical team.

"Doctor Ye, take a moment, it will take more than two hours to reach Dong County." Xu Yuanhe turned his head from the passenger seat and said to Ye Yibai.

Ye Yibai looked out of the car window sideways. Today's sun was mostly covered by clouds in the sky, and the winter without sunshine seemed extraordinarily cold. The road from downtown Hangzhou to Dongxian County was not easy. Behind the cement road outside the urban area is a large area of ​​road compacted with soil. Some small stones will be paved in good places, but more of it is bare soil. It probably rained yesterday, and the wheels splashed from time to time. When muddy water came, the whole car wobbled.

"It's okay, I'm not tired." Ye Yibai turned his head and smiled at Xu Yuanhe. Speaking of which, Director Xu is still an old acquaintance, the director of surgery at Huaning Hospital, and they had surgery together when they came to Hangzhou last time , "I didn't expect that Director Xu would take the initiative to invite Ying to come to Dong County."

Xu Yuanhe chuckled when he heard the words, "Doctor Ye, don't tell me about Director Xu, just call me by my name. The dean in the urban area can handle it well. I won't be too many, but the task in Dongxian County is hard. , I came from Dong County, and I also want to do my part for my hometown."

The car moved slowly on the road.

Twenty kilometers away, in Pengcun and Yangcun, Dongxian County, many villagers confronted a group of black uniforms with hoes and poles in their hands.

"Let Er Niu and the others go, and we'll leave." The leading villager tried his best to put on a fierce look, but his sunken eye circles and chapped lips due to not sleeping well for many days made his words not as powerful as he imagined .

The police officers of the police station are also full of anger. Who in this world does not cherish life. Since the plague began, they have been sent to this wilderness. They can't eat well, sleep well, and have to Worried about whether he would be infected, two of them have already been sent away, he still remembers the look in the eyes of one of his colleagues when he was sent away, it was so empty and hopeless, next month is the Spring Festival, but his A colleague may never see his family again.

But even so, these unscrupulous people are still not satisfied.

"He has the plague and must be sent to the isolation point. You are not afraid of death, but we are. If you don't want to die, just go back and stay obediently. Don't gather together. God knows if any of you have the plague." Wearing a mask, he wrapped himself tightly with clothes all over his body, and his voice came out from behind the mask, with a strong nasal voice.

A young man next to the leading villager heard the words and rushed out, "I don't want to die, I don't want to die, please, let me out, let me out, please, I'm not sick, I'm really not sick." We are about to rush to the cordon.

The police officers retreated again and again, "Don't come over!"

"Don't come over."

"Last warning, don't come here."

The young man with a crazy expression didn't listen to the policeman's warning at all. He only saw the cordon line getting closer and closer to freedom.

Subsequently

There was a sudden "bang", and the surroundings fell silent in an instant.
