A doctor who travels through two eras

Minister Li put away his smile and began to criticize:
"Old Shen, and Old Ji and Xiao Lin, you are all doctors by profession, and your job is to cure diseases and save lives. So think about it, can you exaggerate when saving people? Can you make false claims? Can you be unrealistic?

Some comrades at the local level are being disrespectful and reporting good news at random. Even a layman like me can't help shaking my head when I hear the figures they report.

But I can’t control others. You are all cadres in the health system and my soldiers. I will not allow this kind of evil trend to prevail in the health system.”

Dean Shen and Vice Dean Ji looked calm after hearing this, but Lin Sanqi was speechless.

The old lady had good intentions, and it was right for her to insist on seeking truth from facts, but she was too stubborn and didn't listen to other people's explanations at all, which was not good.

Minister Li thought that after his criticism, the three subordinates should show expressions of shame, embarrassment, and shame.

As a result, she glanced at the faces of the three people one by one, but each one was calmer than the other, and none of them showed the expected self-criticism. What was going on?

No one who can climb to this position is stupid, and the stupid person is now under house arrest in Inoue Hot Spring on an island.

"Lao Shen, Lao Ji, Xiao Lin, what's wrong? Did I criticize wrongly?"

Dean Shen is not afraid of Minister Li. At most, he just shows respect to him as a superior or a subordinate.

After all, President Shen fought from the Northeast all the way to East China, and he walked out of a mountain of corpses and a sea of ​​blood. He has real military achievements.

Minister Li is in her current position simply because she married a good husband.

What's more, Dean Shen is not false, and he didn't falsify the facts. Why should he feel guilty and criticize himself?

"Minister Li, this is what happened. Here is a formal work report submitted by our Chinese Medicine Hospital. Please take a look at it. There is a piece of data on it.

Since June 1960, we have received a total of 6 outpatient and inpatient tuberculosis patients, of which we have successfully cured 9098 so far.

Of course, it does not mean that our cure rate is only half, but the treatment course for tuberculosis takes about 4 to 6 months. For example, the patients we received in November and December have not yet completed the treatment course, so they are still undergoing treatment.

But according to our statistics, among the 92 patients we treated, the cure rate for tuberculosis reached 6%, the improvement rate reached 2%, and the mortality rate was %. "

Minister Li looked at the report and felt like he was dreaming.

There is a famous saying that has been passed down in China for thousands of years: Nine out of ten people with tuberculosis die, which means that the mortality rate after contracting tuberculosis is over 90%.

Now you tell me that the cure rate for tuberculosis has reached over 90%, which is really unbelievable for Minister Li.

"Old Shen, is there anything wrong with your data? I received the latest data from the United States. Their current tuberculosis cure rate is only 30%. This is already the most advanced level in the world. How can you be three times better than them?"

Dean Shen sat up straight and said seriously:
"Yes, our cure rate is more than three times theirs. Even though there is still a 3% improvement rate, it does not mean that it cannot be cured, but that the condition of these patients is more stubborn and requires more than 6 months of treatment. I believe that if we are given a little more time, these 6% of patients can also be cured."

Lin Sanqi quickly said, "That means our cure rate can reach 98%."

Minister Li was silent, but she began to have hope in her heart. If the data from the Chinese medicine hospital was accurate, then her achievements as the top leader of the health system would be enormous.

Tuberculosis was conquered under her leadership, and she will be remembered in history.

Thinking of this, Minister Li raised the report in his hand and asked seriously:
"Shen Guoming, Ji Juqing, and Lin Sanqi, I am here to confirm with you again on behalf of the organization that your report is completely true and not false at all. Can it withstand review and testing?"

Dean Shen, Vice Dean Lin, and Vice Dean Ji all stood up:

"Please rest assured, we guarantee with our integrity and personality that all data and information are true. We have currently preserved a total of 5000 copies of all patients' information.

The 5000 pieces of information include patients’ medical records, no less than three X-rays, no less than three sputum cultures, and original copies of patients’ follow-up visits or letters reporting their medical conditions. All the information can withstand review and all patients can be found.”

Minister Li slammed the table:
"Okay, then I'll give you a chance, Xiaofang, Xiaofang!"

Secretary Xiaofang hurried over: "Minister, you called me?"

"Xiaofang, notify all team members immediately and hold an emergency meeting!"

That afternoon, one director, eight vice-directors, nine ministers, and almost all department- and bureau-level officials from the Ministry of Health all appeared at the Changping branch of the Hospital of Traditional Chinese Medicine.

With so many leaders coming, there were not enough cars, so Lin Sanqi finally "borrowed" a large truck and threw all the directors and secretaries into the back cargo box. Unfortunately, when these secretaries and secretaries got off the truck, they were already frozen and could not even walk steadily.

After getting off the car, Minister Li looked at the environment of the Changping Branch and was somewhat dissatisfied:

"Old Shen, isn't your branch hospital too far away? It takes two hours to drive there, and there's no direct bus. It's really hard for those patients to come and see a doctor."

Shen Guoming smiled and said, "Minister, you may have forgotten that when we were first approved, it was a farm, and medical treatment was originally an incidental service."

Minister Li looked at the bungalows and the waves of yellow sand after the northwest wind blew, and he felt very emotional:

"The country is in a difficult situation, and it is also difficult for you comrades working at the grassroots level. You insist on medical research under such difficult conditions and can still make great achievements. It is truly admirable."

Several department leaders nearby who knew the inside story rolled their eyes when they heard it.

Everyone in the health system knows that life in the Capital Hospital of Traditional Chinese Medicine is very good. They are eating and drinking well. While others are starving, they are eating canned yellow peaches as meals.

If this is considered hardship, then these government officials are just like begging for food.

Of course, no one would say a bad thing about Chinese medicine hospitals. After all, people are grateful for what they have received. So many New Year benefits are not given for free. They need to say a few good words at the critical moment.

"By the way, where is your tuberculosis department?"

Dean Shen pointed to the foot of the mountain not far away:
"Minister, over there, today is the fifth day of the Lunar New Year, the patient has not returned yet, and we have also fully disinfected, so everyone can rest assured to visit, there will be no cross infection."

Minister Li nodded and waved his hand: "Let's go, let's witness a miracle today."

Leaders, when inspecting a place, they must first shake hands with the people, wish them a happy new year, then visit each ward, give important instructions, etc.

Fortunately, there are no TV reporters taking pictures these days, so there are fewer formalistic things.

Dean Shen was proudly introducing himself all the way:

"Minister Li, look, there are two 750 mAh internationally advanced X-ray machines here..."

"This is the laboratory. All the equipment inside was imported from Hong Kong. They are all world-class..."

"This is our pharmacy. We use the ancestral medicine of Comrade Lin Sanqi's family for treatment, and we have obtained a foreign patent..."

Minister Li immediately grasped the key point:

"Is this medicine passed down from the Lin family? It was not invented by your Chinese medicine hospital? Does it count as private or state-owned?"

Everyone's eyes turned to look over. If this medicine could really cure tuberculosis, it would definitely be a miracle drug in the world. If such a miracle drug belonged to an individual, then it would be a matter of discussion.

Lin Sanqi didn't want to give them hope, so he told them the truth:
"Minister Li, this tuberculosis drug is indeed owned by our Lin family, and the patent was also applied for in Xiangjiang, enjoying global patent qualifications. And the patent belongs to Xiangjiang Lingnantang Pharmaceutical Company, which is in the hands of my fifth uncle.

But our Lin family is devoted to patriotism, so my fifth uncle said that the patent can be licensed to the domestic market free of charge, and even if there is a domestic demand, Lingnantang Company can provide domestic pharmaceutical production lines and process formulas. "

When Minister Li heard this, his eyes lit up:
"Hong Kong compatriots? Great, great, we welcome such patriotic compatriots the most, and we will definitely protect the legitimate interests of Hong Kong compatriots, haha."

Lin Sanqi thought it was a good thing. If he had the patent, he would have been asked to hand it over by now.

Dean Shen quickly changed the subject:

"Minister Li, our data room is in front. The data of 5000 patients are all stored here. The department can randomly check or review all of them. Our Chinese medicine hospital will fully cooperate."

When Minister Li walked into the document room and saw the room full of documents, he was secretly surprised and then picked out a piece of document at random.

Complete medical records, complete medical history records, complete examination sheets and X-rays, even in both Chinese and English. Just based on the comprehensiveness and seriousness of this information, Minister Li has already believed it for the most part.

At the same time, I thought, it seems that the Chinese Medicine Hospital has really made a name for itself. (End of this chapter)
