A doctor who travels through two eras

The leader didn't care about Lin Sanqi's blunt words and just laughed:
"So you are still thinking about this matter. I have learned about this matter. The agricultural department's advice is to be cautious, and so do I. Comrade Lin Sanqi, the grain issue has always been a fundamental issue in every dynasty, and no accidents can happen.

Now the domestic food supply is tight due to constant natural disasters, but at least everyone still has something to eat. Although our country is in difficulties, it can still be maintained stable, and what the country needs most is stability.

If there is a problem with the hybridization technology and it is promoted nationwide, resulting in a complete crop failure, then this will affect 600 million ordinary people and will affect the fundamental issue of whether our Chinese nation can survive.

So our advice is to be cautious, but don't rush. We are currently conducting local trials for observation. This observation period may take 10 or 20 years. It will take time to prove whether hybridization technology is a good thing."

Lin Sanqi sighed. At this point, it was no longer something he could solve.

From the leadership's perspective, they have to look at the issue from the standpoint of national survival. They are afraid that hybrid technology is a conspiracy of Western countries. Conspiracies often give you a little sweetness first and then give you a thundering blow in the end.

But from the perspective of ordinary people, people are almost starving to death, so why should they care about health?
I just hope that the government in a few decades will be more cautious and not rush to promote genetically modified foods. Instead, they will observe and study them for a few more years before making any decisions.

While chatting, everyone continued walking towards Baihu Mountain. In the distance, the medical staff of the Tuberculosis Department were already cheering.

After shaking hands with everyone, the leader curiously visited each house...

In the information room, the big boss was quite shocked when he saw two rooms full of files.

“These are the data of 5000 patients?”

Lin Sanqi quickly introduced:
"Yes, we completely file the patients in the order in which they visited the hospital. Among these 5000 medical records, 4650 patients were cured, 294 were not cured, and 56 died."

The big leader was surprised and said:

"The cure rate is really over 90%. I'm not a doctor, but Comrade Lin Sanqi, can you tell me whether this rate means we have conquered tuberculosis, a global problem?"

Lin Sanqi was a little scratching his head:
"Leader, there is no unified calculation right now, but according to the unspoken rules of the international medical community, when the cure rate exceeds 80%, special effective drugs are developed, and a complete set of diagnosis and treatment guidelines are formed, it can be said that the disease has been conquered."

"Have we reached that point?"

Everyone in the room laughed when they heard this, and Lin Sanqi was also very happy:

"We have achieved our goal. The papers and guidelines have been written. The problem now is that we have no way to submit them. Even if we submit them, foreign medical journals may discriminate against or be hostile to New China, so it will be difficult for them to get published."

The leader nodded to Minister Li:
Minister Li has mentioned to me the difficulties you are facing now, and I agree to publish the papers and results directly in official media such as Renzhi Daily and Xinhua News Agency. But the premise is that you must ensure the reliability of the data, and we *** people must seek truth from facts. "

Minister Li interrupted at this time:

"Please rest assured, leaders. We have verified each of these 5000 medical records. We either verified them by phone or sent staff to meet with the patients in person to confirm the authenticity of each medical record. Our Ministry of Health can issue a military order to this effect."

"Okay, then publish it as soon as possible," the leader said with a wave of his hand.
"Since everyone in your health system has given their word, I, an outsider, absolutely support our comrades. We will announce to the world as quickly as possible that China has become the first country to conquer tuberculosis. This is a huge contribution made by our Chinese nation to all mankind!!!"

Everyone in the conference room was excited and applauded.

The leader then said:

"In addition, I agree in principle with Minister Li's suggestion yesterday to set up an infectious disease hospital. Minister Li has already chosen the location, and the comrades below are so resolute in their work, so I can't hold them back.

I promise you that the approval of the infectious disease hospital will be handled on a special basis. However, in order to reduce opposition, Comrade Lin Sanqi, food supply is currently the biggest obstacle. If this problem is solved, I guarantee that all procedures will be completed within two weeks. "

Food coupons were everything in that era. If a person lived in a city without food, he would starve to death.

Of course, you can also trade with smugglers and black market dealers. The price of fine grain in the grain store is 2 yuan per pound, while that in the black market is 4 or 5 yuan. How many pounds can you buy with your monthly salary of more than 30 yuan?
From the perspective of the top leaders, when the whole country is reducing urban staff, they suddenly go against the tide and set up a new hospital, giving it several hundred staff. A few hundred staff are actually a small matter, but once this loophole is opened, all systems and departments will definitely clamor for additional staff and the establishment of new departments. Will the national elimination work be able to proceed?

This is a very serious and realistic problem facing everyone.

Everyone looked at Lin Sanqi nervously, especially Bi Xinglong, Cai Chunhua, Yang Guang, Fu Jinsheng, Zhou Keyang, Zhu Fengzhen and other doctors and nurses from the Digital Hospital of Union Hospital.

This is a matter of life and death for them, and it is not an exaggeration at all. After all, temporary workers have no safety at all.

Becoming a formal employee again means having a regular job and being secure.

Facing the expectant eyes of the crowd, Lin Sanqi agreed without hesitation:
"Leader, I won't talk about the distant future, but for at least the next five years, this newly established infectious disease hospital will be responsible for its own profits and losses and operate independently. We will never cause any trouble to our superiors or the country."

Before 1965, Lin Sanqi dared to guarantee it, but after 1965, well, it was difficult to guarantee, and he didn't dare to make any guarantees.

The big boss didn’t have a God’s perspective and didn’t pay attention to the deep meaning of Lin Sanqi’s 5 years. He muttered another sentence:

"Self-financing and self-management? Interesting. Comrade Lin Sanqi, can you explain to us the meaning of these eight words?"

Just as Lin Sanqi was about to speak, Dean Shen, who was very alert, coughed lightly.

The big boss was also a smart man, he immediately understood and said with a smile:
"Let's just talk casually today. There is no right or wrong. Comrade Lin Sanqi, feel free to speak up. If your words are appropriate, we will adopt them. If they are inappropriate, we will also take them as reference. Don't worry, I will never catch people's faults."

Hehehe~~~
Everyone in the room chuckled, breaking the awkward atmosphere.

Lin Sanqi thought that the credibility of the leader in front of him was guaranteed, and he was not afraid of being held accountable in the future:

"Leaders, you dare not make an opening easily. You have concerns about setting up new units because you are afraid that governments at all levels across the country will take advantage of loopholes, which will affect the work of clearing out the urban population. In the final analysis, it is still a problem of insufficient food.

But the situation in our hospital is rather special. Firstly, ordinary people will always get sick, and they will always need doctors when they are sick. Without food, they will starve to death, and without doctors, they will still die of illness. Therefore, the role of our doctors is irreplaceable, and this is our right and righteousness!

Another special thing is that our hospital charges medical treatment to the general public. Although we do not charge exorbitant or high fees like hospitals in Europe and the United States, our Chinese medicine hospital definitely has a surplus of more than 200,000 to 300,000 yuan a year.

The Chinese Medicine Hospital is the first Chinese Medicine Hospital in the country. It has no shortage of patients and is profitable. However, many hospitals, especially grassroots hospitals and clinics, are losing money and need state subsidies for hospitals and doctors, which has become a heavy burden on the finances.

Minister Li couldn't help but interrupt at this time:
"Yes, the number of hospitals in the country is far from meeting the needs of the people. There are many difficulties, such as a shortage of doctors and medicines, but the main reason is that grassroots hospitals are in serious deficit and need to rely on government subsidies. This is a long-standing problem."

Lin Sanqi laughed at this time:
"So my idea is that the newly established infectious disease hospital does not need any funding from the higher authorities. We will pay for the decoration and medical equipment needed in the initial stage of the hospital construction out of our own pockets."

The big boss laughed and said, "Wait a minute, the hospital hasn't even been established yet, how can you say you're paying out of your own pocket?"

"Leader, the hospital has no money in the early stage. We can borrow as much money as we need from the Chinese Medicine Hospital. President Shen, don't worry, I will definitely pay you back without missing a cent. I will not default on my debt."

Dean Shen smiled and said, "Brother unit, we will definitely help you."

The big boss nodded and said, "That's a solution. Please continue."

Lin Sanqi led several leaders to the office at this time. After everyone sat down, he continued:

"We have the start-up capital. After the infectious disease hospital opens, we will not ask for help from our superiors no matter whether we make a profit or a loss. We do not need food support or financial subsidies. We are self-reliant.

But there is a caveat, that is, if there are many patients and the unit has money, then I, as the director, have the power to distribute more supplies and money. If there are few businesses and patients, and we have no money, we will find a way to solve it ourselves. " (End of this chapter)
