Shi Shi frowned, looking at the proliferating herpes inside with disgust.
She felt that dying like that would be less satisfying than having her head blown off.
Of course, that's true; nobody wants to be tormented by a virus like that.
This virus looks somewhat like genital warts.
The difference is that the herpes caused by this virus is larger, spreads faster, and has a shorter incubation period.
"Shi Shi, turn on that computer over there, I want to see if there's any data on it."
This room appears to be a temporary laboratory; besides the control panel in front of you, there's a medical pod and a computer in the corner.
The rest of the area is completely exposed, so it's impossible for any items or documents to be found there.
But since it's for research purposes, shouldn't there at least be corresponding diagnostic records on the computer?
At this moment, Jiang Xiao had a vague premonition that the difficulty of this ghost story would surpass that of the previous Pennywise.
Chapter 527 The Terrifying Virus
At the same time, Jiang Xiao's gaze was drawn to the syringes on those robotic arms.
He walked closer and saw a row of different medicine bottles next to him, with labels bearing various technical terms, some of which he couldn't even read.
"Sigh, I've suffered because I'm uneducated."
He was not a doctor and knew nothing about the specific effects of these medications.
But he knew that, faced with such a terrifying viral infection, antibiotics might be the only hope.
He hesitated for a moment, but ultimately decided to take action.
"Brother, don't blame me for being ruthless, but you're definitely not going to survive in this state anyway," Jiang Xiao thought to himself as he selected several bottles of what looked like the most potent antibiotics.
Then, I decisively started operating the robotic arm, aiming the syringes at the medicine bottles one by one and drawing up the liquid.
His operating technique was unprofessional; he didn't know where to aim the robotic arm for the injection, especially since the thing inside the medical pod was practically a pile of rotten flesh.
But in this situation, he couldn't care less about anything else.
He aimed the syringe at the infected person in the medical pod, who was almost unrecognizable as human, and stabbed him in the heart.
The medicine was slowly injected into the infected person's body. Jiang Xiao stared intently at the medical ward, hoping to see some positive changes.
However, as time passed, the infected person's condition did not seem to improve at all; the yellow blisters continued to multiply and spread.
"Dad, how are things going on your end?"
Shi Shi's voice interrupted Jiang Xiao's observation. She had already turned on her computer, and the screen displayed some complex data and records.
However, my computer is a bit slow, so loading is quite slow.
"Nothing has changed yet," Jiang Xiao replied, a hint of disappointment in his eyes.
Shi Shi didn't say much; her attention was completely drawn to the content on the computer screen.
"Hmm? Something's changed!"
The infected person, who had been motionless like a corpse, suddenly began to tremble all over.
The antibiotics must have worked!
Come to think of it, the medicines placed in a medical pod of this level couldn't be ordinary stuff, could they?
"Dad, there are changes, but... they seem to be negative changes to me."
The infected patients already had very little healthy flesh on their bodies; their skin was almost completely covered by herpes.
In some areas, herpes blisters may be starting to fall off naturally due to antibiotic use.
Logically, this should be a good thing.
The problem is that this patient already had so much skin and flesh eroded by herpes.
So, where his herpes detached, half of the rotting tendons and bones were exposed.
There is no blood left in the meridians.
Jiang Xiao finally understood that the reason this guy wasn't dead was most likely because the liquid in the medical pod was maintaining his bodily functions.
Or not
This only treats the symptoms, not the root cause!
Even though the previous blisters are falling off, pus is still oozing from the shed areas, and wherever it flows, blisters will grow back.
Jiang Xiao would not suspect that the problem was that the medicine was counterfeit or substandard.
The fact that this world can produce such a miraculous liquid as that used in medical bays shows that its medical level is definitely no lower than that of Earth.
"This virus is indeed quite frightening, but we don't know how it spreads."
The infectious efficiency of that concentrated fluid is undoubtedly high, and Jiang Xiao is definitely unwilling to touch it.
"It seems that it can most likely be transmitted through bodily fluids, such as saliva, blood, and semen."
"If it could be transmitted through the air, that would be a huge problem."
"Also, we don't know how long the incubation period is. If the symptoms appear immediately after contact, that would be fine."
"I'm afraid that if they lie dormant for another ten days or half a month, the consequences will be absolutely disastrous."
"Dad, you know so much!"
"Well, our generation on Earth has experienced everything. In ancient times, we personally experienced two plagues that were rare, occurring only once every few hundred years, and we survived both. These are common sense."
Regarding the prevention of virus transmission, the Chinese people at least understand some basic logic.
Moreover, Jiang Xiao felt that the incubation period of this virus was definitely not short.
Otherwise, it wouldn't have suddenly erupted, causing the world's national machinery to collapse instantly and abandon rescue efforts for its people.
"The data is out!"
Shi Shi called Jiang Xiao over to watch with her.
As expected, just as Jiang Xiao had thought, the computer contained the treatment and diagnosis records and medical logs of the infected person in front of him.
【June 3】
Patient: Rong Feilong
Age: 24
Sex: Male
Body temperature: 37 degrees
The following information includes height, weight, and blood type.
Based on the information above, we can infer...
This must be what was written in the diary, the day the school was given a holiday and the medical university was allowed to see patients.
The infected person in front of us is most likely the first infected person admitted to the medical university.
The medical log was quite detailed, but unfortunately the names of the drugs were different from those on Blue Star, so Jiang Xiao couldn't make heads or tails of it.
However, it is clear that all the top antibiotics, both domestic and international, were used on this patient, but to no avail!
first day.
The procedure involved routine herpes removal followed by anti-inflammatory and analgesic treatment.
Useless!
the next day.
In desperation, someone suggested using antibiotics directly!
Antibiotics are very strong, but also very dangerous.
People who live in rural areas should know that when they were young, if they had a fever, they could get better by going to a small clinic and getting two IV drips.
It was incredibly effective. As soon as the IV drip was finished, the fever subsided, the headache disappeared, and I had a great appetite!
However, all antibiotics can cause a burden of damage to the human body, especially to the kidneys, which can be very serious.
However, back then, people didn't understand these things.
I only know that there are several clinics in town, so I'll just go to whichever one is the best.
The antibiotics used on this infected person would, if used on a healthy person, cost them twenty years of their life with a single injection.
The effect is there.
The patient probably didn't have as many blisters as they do now.
According to the records in the medical log.
After antibiotics were administered to suppress the spread of the virus, the next main step was to kill all the virus cells in the patient's body and allow them to recover.
but failed.
Just two hours later, the virus routed the antibiotic army and quickly spread throughout the patient's body.
