Chapter 140 Could it be a mutated virus?

Not only Guo Nantian's family of three went to get injections, but Han Jiaoyan also went.

Although she was not bitten by the dog, her legs were scratched.

Dogs can sometimes carry rabies virus on their paws.

While several people were disinfecting and getting injections, the test report about Wu Bin also came out.

The head nurse Liu Jing said in a panic: "Dean, it has been confirmed that Wu Bin is indeed rabid!"

Upon hearing what Liu Jing said, everyone's expressions changed.

After all, the fatality rate of rabies is no joke.

They were still lucky before.

But now that the test reports are out, they can no longer deceive themselves.

Li Guotai immediately ordered: "Isolate this ward immediately. Except for the relevant medical staff, everyone else will go out for disinfection and injection."

"Liu Jing, go and implement some control, report Wu Bin's situation to the Department of Health, and then set up a cordon outside."

"Yes, Dean!"

Under the command of Li Guotai, a group of people began to take action.

He Bingbing and other staff members were also asked to leave the ward.

Although they could stay within the cordon, they could only broadcast live broadcasts of Wu Bin through glass windows.

At the same time, several nurses put on protective clothing and began to disinfect Wu Bin's entire ward.

He Bingbing stood outside and said in confusion: "It's just rabies virus. There shouldn't be any need to be like this, right?"

Yin Yourong said while giving her the injection: "Rabies virus is very scary. After all, there is no specific medicine."

"If you don't get rabies vaccination a few days before being bitten, you will definitely die if you get an attack."

Speaking of this, Yin Yourong looked a little sad.

After this period of getting along, Yin Yourong had a good impression of Wu Bin.

She felt that Wu Bin was a very positive and optimistic boy. At least after experiencing so many illnesses, ordinary people might not want to live long ago.

But Wu Bin not only survived strong, but he was also very happy and confident.

Yin Yourong felt that Wu Bin always had a positive energy that she envied.

But is all this coming to an end after all?

Netizens in the live broadcast room couldn't understand when they saw that the doctors were all wearing protective clothing, and the nurses were moving patients from other wards on the same floor.

"Is this rabies really that powerful? It feels like there is a biochemical weapon in the ward."

"Upstairs, I'm afraid you don't know how powerful the rabies virus is. If it is not strictly controlled, once the virus spreads, it will be no less than a zombie siege."

"There used to be a dog in our village that got rabies, and then people from the Department of Health came and all the cats and dogs in our village were culled and then disposed of harmlessly."

"The main reason is that this thing kills people! The fatality rate is 100%. Do you want to bet the odds with God?"

"A real gambling dog never gives up and starts gambling!"

Yin Yourong and He Bingbing briefly introduce what rabies is.

He Bingbing, who had not paid much attention to it before, instantly became red-eyed.

She never thought that rabies was a terminal disease!
I never thought that people infected with rabies would end up so miserable!
At this moment, Wu Bin, who was tied up in the ward, suddenly pushed away the cloth strip in his mouth.

Wu Bin started shouting and became restless. "Ah! It's so itchy. My whole body is itchy, as if there are bugs crawling around!"

"Let me go, I want to dance, I want to sing, I want to go out for a run!"

Seeing Wu Bin so excited, Professor Zeng stood aside and pushed up his glasses.

"It's basically confirmed that Wu Bin has now fully entered the acute stage, and he has clinical symptoms of encephalitis type."

Rabies is divided into four stages: latent stage, prodromal stage, acute stage, coma and death stage.

The incubation period is easy to understand.

This is the period during which the virus lurks in your body after you are infected by a cat, dog or other animal carrying rabies virus.

During this period, you will not feel any strange, just like a normal person.

This incubation time is generally twenty to sixty days.

But there are also more unlucky cases that have been latent for more than ten years before they occur.

There are many factors that affect the length of the incubation period, so I won’t go into details here.

The second stage is the prodromal stage.

That is, the rabies virus in your body starts to attack your immune system and sets fire everywhere in your body, causing inflammation.

At this stage, patients will experience symptoms such as headache, fatigue, fever, and may feel like there are ants crawling over their body from time to time.

The third stage is the acute stage.

People with better physical fitness at this stage can last for several days.

There are two main symptoms at this stage: encephalitis type and paralysis type.

The encephalitis type is what Wu Bin is like now. He is excited and restless, and feels like there are ants crawling all over his body. He is in unbearable pain.

In the paralytic type, muscle weakness occurs. The whole person gradually becomes paralyzed, unable to speak clearly, loses the ability to swallow, and looks like a fool.

The fourth and final stage is coma and death.

This is also the last stage of the patient's life.

The patient's immune system is completely defeated, the body surrenders, and eventually dies due to respiratory and circulatory failure.

What puzzled Li Guotai and other doctors was that Wu Bin was immediately sent to the hospital after he was bitten by a dog.

The doctors in the hospital didn't even have time to give him the rabies vaccine. As a result, Wu Bin skipped the incubation period and the prodromal period and fell ill on the spot!
Strange, this is so strange!

Professor Zeng asked: "Dean, we have never encountered Wu Bin's situation before. Do you think Wu Bin was infected with a mutated rabies virus this time?"

As soon as Professor Zeng said these words, Li Guotai was suddenly frightened and broke into a cold sweat.

"Although we in the medical field make bold assumptions and are careful to verify them, you are too courageous!"

"If there is such a mutated virus, I can guarantee that it will definitely be a disaster for all mankind!"

The only way to treat rabies in the world now is to use rabies vaccine before the virus attacks to buy time for the body to develop corresponding antibodies.

But if the rabies virus really mutates and skips the first two stages, then the end of mankind is coming soon.

Professor Zeng was also frightened by his words.

He said with some embarrassment: "You can't blame me. In fact, classmate Wu Bin is alive in front of us now. It can't be that his physique is different from ordinary people, so that caused the rabies virus to attack early, right?"
