4528 The Other Side 497

“Quarantined?” She immediately became nervous. “Is it that serious? Then, what about Yueyao? Will she catch the bug?”

“It’s said that a few suspected cases have appeared in this hospital. Of course, this is also internal news. The Ministry of Health doesn’t dare to make a big fuss and is still analyzing the infection level, for fear of causing public panic. Of course, regardless of whether it’s true or not, in short, other than the wards, don’t go anywhere else.”

“Oh, okay.” Yun Shishi nodded.

For the past two days, Yueyao had been obedient. Initially, she had wanted to go to the back garden with Jing Yang, but because Yun Shishi was worried about the flu, she told the children not to wander around outside the ward.

Yueyao flipped through many fairy tales that night. Although she was still young, she had already begun to read. In addition, comic books all had pinyin, so she learned many new stories and told them to Jing Yang.

Youyou had become even more depressed over the past few days and finally fell ill. It wasn’t because he was too sad that he fell ill, but because he had caught a cold.

Wary, Yun Shishi asked the doctor what the reason was. Because it was sudden, the doctor was not sure. Hence, he had taken a blood sample and said that it would take two to three days for the results to be released.

Within two to three days, Little Yichen fell ill as well.

Other than that, another child that Yun Shishi had not expected to see was sent to the hospital too.

“It’s you…” Standing in the hallway, Yun Shishi found herself face to face with Chu He, who was carrying a hot kettle. She was surprised beyond words.

Chu He was also surprised to see her. “Why are you here?”

“Uh…” Frowning, Yun Shishi said, “The three children are down with colds. All of them have been hospitalized now.”

Chu He grew nervous when she heard this. “The three children are sick? Are they all suffering from a cold?”

“Uh huh.”

Yun Shishi asked again, “How about you?”

“I… Baby Chu caught a cold and was hospitalized. The doctor said that he might have contracted a new type of influenza. He’s in semi-quarantine now.”

“That bad?”

“Yes. Haven’t you noticed that many children have inexplicably caught a cold and are hospitalized?”

The four major children’s hospitals in the capital city were all overcrowded and facing a bed crunch.

“To begin with, the season is transitioning. With the recent weather fluctuating between hot and cold, I didn’t take Baby Chu’s cold seriously. I kept asking the family doctor to give him injections and medicine. But after a week, he suddenly had a fever. I was really worried, so I wanted to send him to an authoritative hospital to take a look. I didn’t expect the doctor to say that he might have contracted a new type of influenza. I heard that another children’s hospital has already had a death case.”

Death cases…

Yun Shishi was shocked. She had been following the news, but she had not heard about any deaths.

“Why haven’t I heard of this before? I’ve been paying attention to this news.”

“It’s news from early this morning. It’ll probably be reported tonight!” Chu He asked with concern, “How are the three kids?”

“They’ve already taken a blood sample and submitted it for testing. Because the hospitals have been overcrowded recently, many doctors have been temporarily transferred to other hospitals. The laboratory report will probably take a few days to be ready. So we’re not sure if they’re infected with the influenza.”

Chu He said, “Baby Chu’s already in semi-quarantine. Besides, the doctor asked me to bring Linxi over because he’s been taking care of Baby Chu recently and shows signs of coming down with a cold.”
