Chapter 865 prehistoric viruses
During the meal, Chen Qun knew what had happened from Zhao Xue, who was well-informed. There were five patients from the Antarctic scientific research ship, a young couple and three middle-aged people, all of whom were scientists and engineers. After a glacier sampling in Antarctica, all of them had the same symptoms. They were first sent to the Cape of good hope hospital in South Africa. After the test failed, they were sent back to China by chartered plane. Recently, Xiangyun hospital was arranged as a designated hospital.
At the same time, a joint expert group from the capital and Lujiang came by plane for a joint consultation. Liu Yang led the major departments of the hospital to meet the patients. Although the condition of five patients has not yet appeared fatal symptoms, it has been deteriorating. It may be delayed for a few days and they will die.
While swallowing the food, Miss Dongfang blurted out a sentence.
"Is this a virus infection? Don't forget that there are many infectious diseases in Africa. "
Chen Qun knocked her head and pointed to the information from Zhao Xue.
"You just don't use your head. If the virus is infected, the whole scientific research station will be hit. They didn't show symptoms until three or four days after they came back, but none of the other researchers they came into contact with had similar symptoms, which almost ruled out the possibility of virus infection. "
Miss Dongfang immediately raised her hand.
"That's not necessarily. Who knows how many ancient viruses and prehistoric viruses are buried in the Antarctic glaciers. If prehistoric viruses are infected and don't spread among people, you can't find out."
Miss Dongfang puts her mobile phone in front of Chen Qun. With a gentle pull, the small and exquisite mobile phone immediately separates from the inside and turns into two pieces. With a gentle combination, it immediately turns into a small tablet computer and puts it in front of Chen Qun.
"Wow, have you changed your cell phone again? Isn't this foldable mobile phone out of date? Why is it fashionable again? "
Chen Qun's attention is obviously not on the channel of the first lady, but it makes the first lady happy. Knowing that Chen Qun's wood is intentional, so as not to be scolded by her, he flatters her a little, which shows that his boyfriend is considerate of her from all aspects.
"Be professional, Dr. Chen. You can watch it yourself. There are dozens of inspection results. We have done almost all the tests we can do, including negative for amoeba infection, negative for botulism, negative for naguiasis, negative for insect borne conventional virus and negative for rabies. So I think it's an ancient pathogen that's resurrected. We never recorded it, we don't have any information, let alone how to treat it. "
This girl just likes to be curious. Chen Qun teases her to see how many diseases she knows.
"Maybe it's just vasculitis?"
As soon as the young lady listened, she directly clicked on the screen and said with a smile to Chen Qunying.
"Doctor Yun, tell the brother the test results."
An electronic tone answers immediately.
"Patients with normal kidney, excluding vasculitis!"
"Carbon monoxide poisoning?"
"Several patients have epilepsy symptoms, carbon monoxide poisoning can not explain."
As soon as this sentence was uttered, Chen Qun immediately aroused a little vigilance. Is this... A sign of the refinement of telephone or the formation of artificial intelligence? What kind of computer program can give the most appropriate explanation of the disease one by one?
Chen Qun's mind moved, and immediately said another hypothesis.
"What about non bacterial thrombotic endocarditis?"
"There is no vegetation on the CT image, which is not correct."
"What about Xueba syndrome?"
The electronic voice stopped for a moment, and immediately changed to Qi Hong's voice.
"Chen Qun, I'm familiar with you. If you want to slander me, I'll accuse you of slandering me for suffering from a false disease and asking for compensation for my mental loss."
The young lady also pinched Chen Qun and threatened him fiercely.
"You bastard, when did you know it was wrong? How do you know it's Qi Hong? Can't it be a little apple? "
Chen Qun turned off his girlfriend's cool and beautiful new mobile phone, then gently shaved her nose and explained with a smile.
"No matter how smart your computer program is, it's impossible to retrieve my keywords and give tit for tat answers. The first answer I think is impossible. The second answer is completely certain that a real person is coming up with a computer program. Finally, Qi Hong's personal style of talking back is very obvious, and I have a lot of arguments with her, Naturally, I can guess that she is posing as a computer. "
Miss Dongfang stares at Chen Qun and asks."What style is Qi Hong?"
Chen Qun answered in a low voice.
"She's a person. She doesn't talk much. A few key words summed up all the answers. No matter how smart a computer is, it's not as smart as this. It's impossible to answer everything in one way. "
Chen Qun says here, suddenly something rings. He turns on the young lady's mobile phone again and is preparing to search for information, but he sees that the mobile phone is locked. Chen Qun is a bit impolite, directly put the mobile phone close to the beautiful eyes of the young lady, glanced at it, and opened the electronic lock of the mobile phone.
The young lady looked at Chen Qun in surprise, "how do you know that my mobile phone is equipped with retinal scanning?"
"Guess. Maybe my simple answer is more likely to be in line with the situation of several patients. You search for mercury poisoning to see if it's exactly the same as their condition? "
Chen Qun said, while always impolitely on the mobile phone to search for mercury poisoning, put the results in front of the young lady, explained.
"Maybe all the doctors complicate things, but I read a report. In the permafrost of the north and south poles, there is pure mercury in about 50 swimming pools. When the surface ice melts, mercury is exposed and enters the ecosystem. These scientists are there sampling, exposure to these harmful mercury, leading to all symptoms
At this point, Chen Qun showed a dignified look and said with a pause.
"I hope your statement is alarmist, but I think so, too. Maybe what we are encountering now is a kind of prehistoric material. If we want to detect it, a week or two is not enough. So, when I see the patient, I will come up with a risk-taking plan to treat mercury poisoning first. "
Miss Dongfang looked up at Chen Qun and asked a simple question.
"Can't toxicology test detect the existence of mercury?"
Chen Qun rubbed his forehead in some distress and gave an explanation.
"This is about two aspects. The first is micro mercury poisoning. It takes a week or two to confirm the test, but the patient can't wait that long. The second is the problem of quantity. If the equivalent is small enough to cause disease, but it can't be detected, it will be ignored. The truth is just as we now detect pregnancy and blood type, are using a circumstantial means, will lead to some inaccuracy
Of course, Chen Qun did not say that breaking the system in this incident may also bring nothing! Because breaking the system won't cure diseases it doesn't know.
