Chapter 249

"Due to the recent outbreak of new Legionella pneumonia in our city, martial law will be implemented throughout the city at 19:00 pm on August 3. Please return home as soon as possible, do not panic and wait patiently for evacuation arrangement... "

In the TV screen, the male host's expression is very serious, the voice is solemn and generous, full of confidence to overcome difficulties.

Shanhai City, no matter which TV channel is turned on, the signal is the sudden news report.

The network has been regulated, but mobile phones across the city are receiving such SMS notifications, and a new one will be available every few minutes.

From two o'clock in the afternoon to seven o'clock in the evening, the time was so short that people were both suspicious and afraid.

Some people immediately want to leave Shanhai city. Whether they are from other places or from local families, they all find that all the entrances and exits have been controlled and the whole city has been closed.

Some people want to go to the supermarket to buy goods and materials, but they find that supermarkets and shopping malls are blocked and can't get in.

In the news report, the host actually made it very clear.

Legionella is airborne, produced in the natural environment, and grows in the artificial water supply system such as air conditioning refrigeration device, cold and hot water system. These systems discharge contaminated aerosols, which can infect the human body after inhalation, resulting in fever, sweating, dyspnea, cough, etc.

Therefore, places like supermarkets and gymnasiums are the places where the spread is most serious.

All air conditioners in the city should not be turned on immediately. Shower and humidifier should also be stopped. Further, all artificial water supply systems should be stopped. Water supply in the whole city will be cut off from 0:00 on the 4th. Please store water, but it's better not to drink it. If you want to drink it, you have to leave it for ten hours. If you have water, don't get close to the tap. Please hold on until you evacuate and don't panic.

The prevention and control personnel will take the infected and suspected infected people from the whole city and isolate them one by one, and then evacuate other people.

"Please stay at home patiently." The host repeatedly stressed, "don't panic."

This press release is obviously carefully considered to let the public understand that the situation is serious but not panic. It does not even say "outbreak" but "outbreak".

However, medical students have heard more strange. In the past, the infectious power of Legionella has not been so strong. What does "new Legionella" mean?

Not everyone knows Legionella, but the severity of these emergency measures is felt by everyone.

Li Mingqiu graduated from University for six years, nearly 30 years old, is a programmer of an IT company.

As soon as the city's notice was issued in the afternoon, people in the company were in panic. Everyone wanted to leave immediately. However, the leaders said that the guidance document told them to stay in the company as much as possible to wait for evacuation, while those walking on the street should return home as soon as possible.

"Those who have children can go first. Other people consider that the traffic outside is very chaotic and there are many people. It's easier to get infected if you run around. "

It's true. Looking out from the middle floor window of the office building, pedestrians are in a hurry, and taxis are not stopping at all. They are on the edge of traffic paralysis.

Because Li Mingqiu is not a local, and has no marriage or children, he shares an apartment with others. It is not good to go back, so he chooses to stay in the company.

Half of the colleagues left, not only because of their families, but also because they wanted to rush to buy supplies: "I don't know how long it will take to wait for the evacuation. The bacteria can pollute the water, and the mineral water will be robbed when they go to the late stage." Some people think there is no big deal at all: "scare people, routine."

The central air conditioning was turned off immediately. In the hot August summer, the office was extremely hot, and the windows had to be closed according to instructions.

"This epidemic may be more serious than SARS..."

"Yes, the state must know that it was in a hurry, but it did."

The office was sultry, leaving about a dozen people in their seats. After the initial heated discussion, they were at a loss, saying nothing at all.

At this time, Wei Xiaoru, who was chatting with a doctor, put down her mobile phone and said to the nervous crowd, "my classmate said that there are many kinds of Legionella. This time, it should be a new one, which is different from the previous ones. Prevention of Legionella is to open windows to keep ventilation, not to provide them with an ideal growth environment

"Then we'll close the window?" Zhang Dawei startled, this is also Li Mingqiu and other people's doubts.

Wei Xiaoru recalled: "the most important carrier of Legionella is the aerosol in the news, but generally it can only spread to a space with a radius of 200 meters and survive in tap water for more than an hour. Now I have to close the window and stop the water supply. My classmate said, "there are only three possibilities."

"One is that the new Legionella has more diverse carriers, wider transmission range and longer survival time in the water; the other is that the CDC believes that Shanhai city has been everywhere It's polluted. What's more, the first two may be true. "

People look at each other, although they don't know much about medicine, they all understand how serious this is.

Spread with the wind? Spread with tap water? People have to breathe and drink water."The whole city is polluted?" Zhang Dawei's face was full of anger, "what's the matter? Are you hiding the report? If it's done like this, you have to leave?"

"My classmate said Wei Xiaoru is also very confused, "this epidemic may develop very quickly, even the country is unprepared."

All the people were worried and anxious, but they had to wait. At seven o'clock in the evening, the alarm sounded over the city, and the martial law began.

Looking out of the window of the office, the street has become desolate. Only the disease control vehicles and martial law vehicles that have appeared since the afternoon have been driving on the road from time to time. There are also teams of disease control personnel wearing white protective clothing passing by, catching individual people wandering outside into transport vehicles and taking them away.

But the news has long said that contact with disease control personnel has a greater risk of infection, so don't deliberately go out and be arrested.

And being taken away is not to leave Shanhai City, is to take for examination, once suspected of infection, isolation and treatment.

After the alarm, there was a broadcast over the city: "please return home as soon as possible..."

The news also said that if you find people around you who have cough and other suspected symptoms, please immediately stay away from the suspected patients and call the help line. If you have symptoms, please call the hotline immediately to get treatment as soon as possible.

Why should we remove the patient first and then others?

Li Mingqiu pondered over this problem for an afternoon. The more he thought about it, the more he felt that except for the shortage of manpower, the whole Shanhai city was polluted

There is an incubation period for this disease. It can't be seen that those who carry the bacteria and those who don't have it. One patient can expand the scope of contamination and infect tens of thousands of other people.

Therefore, we can't withdraw randomly, we should use time to let patients show themselves first, so as to determine where Shanhai city is still clean.

Maybe only the healthy people in clean areas will be evacuated in the end

All of a sudden, Lin Mingda, a colleague sitting in his office chair, suddenly coughed: "cough, cough..."

All of a sudden, they all looked around and saw Lin Mingda's face. They didn't know when it had become a little ugly.

After that, Li Mingqiu's heart was tight, and his whole body seemed to collapse. Wei Xiaoru, beside him, also turned pale.

"Ah Zhang Dawei stepped back a few steps and said in a panic, "call someone, call quickly..."

"I, I..." Lin Mingda wanted to say something, but he coughed more violently: "I, cough..."
