A doctor who travels through two eras

Minister Li, along with a group of deputy ministers and officials from the ministry, drove to the Dongyue Temple outside Chaoyang Gate.

As soon as the car drove out of the moat outside Chaoyang Gate, it was blocked. The horse-drawn carriages, donkey carts, bicycles, etc. in front were all stopped on the road and could not move.

Many people who were in a hurry were cursing. It was estimated that many people were late for work for the first time this morning due to traffic jams. If they told others about it, the factory leaders might not believe it.

Deputy Minister Zhang looked at his watch and found that it was only 8 a.m.:
"This is strange. Although we don't come to the east of the city often, when did the east of the city get stuck in traffic? This is a strange thing."

Minister Li was also a little strange:
"Will there be any unexpected incidents ahead? This will delay things, Xiaofang, go and ask what's going on?"

The female secretary was very smart. She jumped out of the car immediately and ran to a policeman who was directing traffic not far away, then ran back:

"Minister, it's Dongyue Temple. Oh no, it's called the Infectious Disease Hospital. There's a traffic jam in front of it. There are patients coming from all over the country to see a doctor. It is said that there are no less than five or six thousand people at the scene."

Minister Li and Minister Zhang were both shocked when they heard this:
"So many people? This is only the first day of opening. By the way, how many patients were originally designed to be admitted to the infectious disease hospital?"

After all, they are professionals. The leaders of the Ministry of Health immediately saw the contradiction in the problem.

Secretary Xiaofang's mind is full of numbers:
"Director Lin Sanqi originally planned that the infectious disease hospital would receive a maximum of 500 outpatient visits a day, and currently has 300 beds."

Minister Li looked at the crowd outside, and then at the people behind the car who were still rushing towards the Dongyue Temple:
"It's bad. With such a huge number of patients, the infectious disease hospital can't handle it at all. I'm afraid there will be riots. I don't want it to be smashed right after it opens. Everyone get out of the car and go help!"

Vice Minister Zhang also agreed:

"People are already sick and in a bad mood. If they wait in line for a long time but still cannot get treatment, they might smash the hospital. In serious cases, they might even hurt people. We need to take this seriously."

The visiting group from the Ministry of Health got off at Chaoyangmen and quickly ran towards Dongyue Temple under the guidance of the old lady.

When everyone ran to the hospital entrance panting, they found that there were even more people queuing up to watch, and probably quite a few of them were citizens who came to watch the fun.

Then there was a burst of booing from the crowd. Some were fighting, some were cheering, some were trying to stop the fight, and some were swearing.

Li Peichang slapped his thigh and said, "Hurry, hurry, there's a commotion. Ah, everyone go and maintain order. Xiaofang, go to the police station and call for help. We must not allow a mass incident to occur~~~"

Just as the people from the Ministry of Health were squeezed outside the crowd and were anxious, suddenly a loud voice came from the loudspeaker:

"Pull out those who were the first to cut in line."

"Yes, this one, and that one, stop him. If he dares to resist, pull him aside and beat him!"

"People at the back should stop crowding, and the onlookers should stand aside. This is a tuberculosis patient. Do you want to be infected by standing so close to him?"

When Minister Li and his party finally squeezed to the main entrance of the hospital under the protection of the police, they found Lin Sanqi standing on the "Drum Tower" with a microphone, shouting into the microphone and directing people to line up.

In a corner of the hospital gate, a group of security guards were beating and kicking three young men.

The crowd nearby cheered, laughed, and cursed from time to time, making it very lively.

It seemed as if everyone had come to an overpass instead of a hospital.

Minister Li felt that his blood pressure was rising, and he felt dizzy. He shouted angrily to Lin Sanqi who was giving instructions on the Drum Tower:
"Lin Sanqi, get down here. I heard it from the outside. Why did you hit the patient?"

Lin Sanqi looked down and thought, "Oh no! Why is this old lady here?" So he ran down quickly:
"It's a misunderstanding, boss. These three people cut in line, disrupted order, and even beat up the security guards, so I pulled them out to teach them a lesson."

Deputy Minister Zhang also got angry: "Comrade Lin Sanqi, you are a doctor. No matter how badly the patient is treated, we cannot hit him! This is a principled mistake."

Lin Sanqi rolled his eyes in his heart, thinking, I've been busy all morning and you guys don't help me, but instead you act like a judge? Can you please go to BJ Station and buy a ticket to take the train to Kaifeng Mansion?

I can complain in my heart, but I have to pretend to be serious on the surface:

"Minister Li, Deputy Minister Zhang, it's like this. I suspect these three young men are not patients at all, but the Buddha in this city. If they are not Buddhas, they at least have three hands.

You see, the people who really want to see a doctor are queuing up according to the regulations, but these three people are weaving around in the crowd, shouting that they want to see a doctor, inciting the people in the queue to squeeze forward. Judging from their lively appearance, they are definitely not patients. "At this time, some enthusiastic people in the crowd helped to explain:

"That's right, these three people are not good people!"

"These three people are here to stir up trouble, not to queue up. I suspect they are enemy agents!"

"Dean Lin has already set the rules, but they are the only ones who want to cut in line?"

Anyone who can become a minister or deputy minister is a shrewd person and is not so easy to fool. Everyone in the Ministry of Health immediately realized that there was something wrong with these three people.

This has caused public outrage.

But the superficial work must always be done, otherwise what is the point of calling it a "superior inspection team"?

"No matter what, you can't hit people. Forget it this time. Hand these three people over to the police. Don't hit people next time."

Lin Sanqi was a little unconvinced and decided to explain himself:

"Leaders, in troubled times, severe punishments should be used. Look at the situation at the scene. It's like a frying pan, and it will explode at the slightest touch. I'm also afraid. What if a stampede occurs and people die?
So I don’t have time to explain and sort things out slowly, I can only make an example of others. No matter who cuts in line, I will cancel their queuing and number-taking for minor offenses, and I will beat the serious ones, just to show others who disrupt order.”

Lin Sanqi doesn't care about the quality of the common people at all.

Chinese people have a strong herd mentality. If everyone else is queuing, they will follow suit. But as long as one or two people succeed in cutting in line, the people who are queuing honestly behind them will also swarm in to cut in line.

So Lin Sanqi showed no mercy at all. He beat them when they should be beaten, scolded them when they should be scolded, and told them to dig sand if they dared to resist.

Minister Li probably knew what was going on and didn't want to dwell on it any more. He thought that the beating would be done and it would be fine after he pretended to have done it.

"By the way, I just heard that you have some rules for registration here? Tell me about them."

Lin Sanqi smiled and said:
"As you can see, there are thousands of people. Even if I work at full capacity, I can only open 750 tickets a day at most. But there are still many people queuing up behind them. They are unwilling to queue up again the next day. When will it be their turn?
So I registered them in batches, releasing 750 numbers each time, which was equivalent to making an appointment for them in advance. This way, they knew their number and the approximate time they could see the doctor, so they wouldn't have to wait in line overnight like headless flies just to get a number, which was too tiring. "

"Make an appointment in advance?"

Minister Li and a group of health officials nodded their heads after hearing this: "This is a good idea. Patients can freely and reasonably arrange their visit time."

Lin Sanqi pointed to a large blackboard at the door:

"I also plan to make public the remaining appointments for a certain date at any time, so that patients can see which morning or afternoon appointments are available and register in advance. I plan to implement this policy for a long time."

Minister Li smiled and said, "This is a good idea. You can implement it for a while and then summarize the experience. I think it can be promoted to all hospitals across the country."

Deputy Minister Zhang also gave a thumbs up:
"Although making an appointment is a small matter, it also reflects the good purpose of the Capital Infectious Disease Hospital to do everything possible to serve the people wholeheartedly. This should be praised and is worth learning from for everyone."

Lin Sanqi heaved a sigh of relief, it seemed that the incident of beating someone up was over.

"Minister Li, several other ministers and leaders, please come on, everyone please put on your masks first, I will take you to visit the inside of the hospital."

Vice Minister Zhang took the mask and took a look at it, and immediately saw the problem:
"Comrade Sanqi, why is your mask different from ours?"

When Vice Minister Zhang came to inspect the Infectious Disease Hospital, he would of course prepare a mask in advance, but his mask was made of several layers of gauze, so it could be washed and reused if it got dirty.

Lin Sanqi wanted to build a modern medical system in the 1960s, which meant starting from scratch. Even masks had to be completely reformed.

"Leaders, the full name of the masks I gave you is medical protective masks. You can see that the material used is the most advanced melt-blown non-woven fabric, which has not yet been produced in China."

Lin Sanqi suddenly scratched his head when he said this, thinking that if he wanted to produce N95 masks in this era, it seemed that he would have to produce meltblown non-woven fabrics first?
However, to produce meltblown nonwovens, raw materials such as polypropylene particles and additives are required, which are currently not available. (End of this chapter)
