Emperor Liu Hong

"What happened?"

Seeing the flustered appearance of the palace maid, Liu Hong knew that the matter was definitely serious.

"Your Majesty, there is a plague in the capital. The Prime Minister and the Minister of the Ministry of Health are here, and they are waiting for your summoning."

"Plague, there is a plague in the capital!" Hearing the news, Liu Hong didn't care about those photos anymore, and walked outside.

The plague, let alone in ancient times, is also a major event in the 21st century, and it is extremely difficult to prevent it.Now we can only hope that this epidemic will not be too serious.

"Uncle Huang, what's the situation now?" Seeing Liu Shu and Zhang Zhongjing circling anxiously in the hall, Liu Hong felt that things were not very good.

"Your Majesty, the situation is very serious." As he spoke, he said to Zhang Zhongjing, "Zhang Shangshu, you have a detailed report there, and you should report it to Your Majesty."

Zhang Zhongjing was not polite, and said directly: "Your Majesty, it has been confirmed that the epidemic originated in Jizhou. Several Jizhou people who went to work in the capital brought the epidemic to the capital. Although there are not many cases found in the capital, but the people in Jizhou The epidemic is already very serious, making the local people panic."

"Then how did you deal with it?"

"Your Majesty, I have ordered all the doctors to stand by and treat the confirmed cases in a centralized manner and isolate them for treatment."

Hearing this arrangement, Liu Hong shook his head, "It's just that it won't work, it's too incomplete and not enough to control the development of the epidemic."

"Then what can your majesty do?" Zhang Zhongjing didn't dare to interrupt, but Liu Shu didn't have any worries.

"For confirmed cases, centralized treatment and isolation treatment are correct, but it is not comprehensive. Those suspected patients should also be isolated and observed until they are confirmed."

Hearing this, both Liu Shu and Zhang Zhongjing nodded.

"To prevent the plague, the most important thing is to cut off its transmission route. It is not enough to isolate the patients. It is also necessary to delineate the epidemic spots and epidemic areas, and disinfect the epidemic spots and epidemic areas in time. It is best to block the epidemic areas."

When Liu Shu and Zhang Zhongjing heard this, they also agreed.

"Attention must be paid to the sanitary conditions and personal hygiene in the epidemic area. Drinking water must be boiled. Human and animal manure must be disinfected with quicklime before being buried deeply. There are many diseases, which are caused by germs produced by the decay of animal corpses. For human beings, it is best to cremate animal corpses and patients who died of illness, if not, they should be buried deeply, so that they cannot become new sources of infection.”

"Your Majesty, what you said is too comprehensive. With these measures, the epidemic can be easily controlled in the future." Zhang Zhongjing admired Liu Hong's supplement.

"These measures seem to be very comprehensive, but I am not a medical worker, and it is inevitable that there will be unexpected things. You professionals must carefully summarize, find out the best defense measures against the epidemic, and form a complete regulation so that our The people are safe from the danger of disease."

"Yes, His Majesty said so."

"Zhongjing, although you are not very old, you are also a famous doctor in the world. Is the epidemic that happened this time good or not?"

"Your Majesty, the disease that occurred this time is smallpox, commonly known as pockmarked disease. It is best to prevent this disease in advance. Once you get this disease, the possibility of cure is very small. Basically, you can only resign yourself to fate."

Hearing that the epidemic was caused by smallpox, Liu Hong relaxed his nervousness.For other epidemics, he really has nothing to do, but he knows that smallpox can be prevented by vaccination.

"Zhongjing, I know about the smallpox disease. I have read how to prevent it from an ancient book."

"Ah, how to prevent it?" Hearing this, Liu Shu and Zhang Zhongjing asked excitedly at the same time.

"The book said that once you get smallpox once, you will never get it again. So as long as people are slightly infected, after self-healing, they will have resistance to smallpox and will never get it again. Holy shit."

"But how to make people slightly infected? This kind of thing is not easy to control. If people are not careful, if people get seriously infected, it will kill them." Zhang Zhongjing was very curious about this.

"The answer given in the book is to breed vaccinia." Liu Hong explained: "Smallpox is not only a disease that can be contracted by humans, but also by animals. Cows are the easiest to infect. Liquid, when applied to human wounds, it can cause a slight infection, and after self-healing, it can resist smallpox."

"Can this work?" Zhang Zhongjing had some doubts about this.

"I don't know if it will work or not. But since the predecessors have proposed a solution, even if we can't confirm whether it is true or not, it is not difficult to test it."

"Yes, what Your Majesty said is that I will arrange it now." After speaking, Zhang Zhongjing left in a hurry.

"Uncle Emperor, once the epidemic occurs, people will inevitably panic. And once the epidemic area is sealed off, the people's panic will intensify. At this time, it is easy to be exploited by people with intentions. The imperial court must guide it."

Although after Liu Hong's reminder, Liu Shu made arrangements.However, due to the entire blockade of Wei County in Jizhou, it still caused a lot of panic among the people. No matter what the court explained, the people did not believe it.

"It won't work like this. If it goes on like this, it will be a big deal."

The experiment with cowpox has just begun, and it will take longer to inoculate the common people after it is confirmed.Now people are panicking because of Wei County's blockade. If such a long time has passed, they may not know what will happen.

"The most important thing now is to stabilize people's hearts, let people know that there is nothing wrong with the people in the epidemic area, and let them not believe the rumors of people with ulterior motives. But the blockade cannot be lifted, otherwise all previous efforts will be wasted, so how can we break through those rumors What about it?" Liu Hong kept pondering, "It's really not possible, I'll go to Wei County to visit the people there, so those rumors will be self-defeating."

"Your Majesty, you have to go to Wei County in person, no, it's too dangerous."

"Damn, you think I'd like to go there. It's an epidemic area. I don't know if the vaccine I got in my previous life will still work in this life. It's a big risk." Liu Hong slandered for a while, and then said "Uncle Huang, the situation is urgent now. If I don't go there in person, what else can I do to stop the rumors?"

After hearing this, Liu Su was speechless.

"Uncle Emperor, I have great confidence in cowpox. As long as I get inoculated with cowpox, the epidemic area will pose no risk to me, so you can rest assured." This is also Liu Hong's real thought. Never go to such a dangerous place.

The news spread that the emperor was going to visit the affected area in person, which was quite powerful. Before Liu Hong made the trip, those rumors disappeared.After all, no one is a fool. If the epidemic area is as rumored, it is absolutely impossible for the emperor to go there.

But the people also know that even if it is different from what the rumors say, it is an epidemic area after all, and it must be very dangerous.And the emperor went there in person regardless of the danger, and Liu Hong's already high prestige immediately increased many times.
