Traveling back to 1977

Chapter 314 This is called professionalism

Believe it or not, I've already bought everything, what else can I do?
Bicycles and sewing machines are both large items, and motorcycles are not easy to pull, so Chen Fan spent another 5 cents to ask a secondhand shop to help deliver them to the health department's guesthouse by handcart.

Zhang Juemin and Zhang Wenliang were furious that the secondhand shop charged 5 cents for such a small amount of goods, and they wanted to curse the merchant as a profiteer. Unfortunately, the secondhand shop was also state-owned, so they had no choice but to give up.

After shopping, I returned to the guesthouse, and the morning was over just like that.

In the afternoon, Chen Fan did not participate in the discussion with the expert group.

He has said everything he can now. If the discussion continues, his persona of "only knowing basic medical skills" will crumble, and the consequences that will follow are anyone's guess.

In fact, almost all first aid methods are very common, so common that any ordinary person can learn them after a few serious studies. This is why no one has any doubts about Chen Fan.

It's just that they have a lot of first aid experience and can come up with unique treatment ideas.

Young people are naturally quick-witted, and besides, he has martial arts training and a good understanding of the human body, so what's there to doubt?

These days, there are quite a few people who have a special skill and are praised by major newspapers, and then become famous throughout the country.

Chen Fan is just one of many. He has some talent and deserves praise, but ultimately, he still needs the organization's support to be effective!

Therefore, it is not worth paying special attention to.

However, if one were to reveal their TCM skills, which are close to level 4, such medical expertise would be sufficient to open a clinic and take on apprentices at the prefectural TCM hospital.

If he were ten years older, everything would be easier to discuss. After all, there are plenty of people in their twenties and thirties who have mastered excellent medical skills, and everyone would just consider him to be exceptionally gifted.

But you're only 16? Have you recognized all 1,000+ herbs? Have you memorized 100 commonly used herbs? Have you learned how to process them? Do you understand pulse diagnosis? Are you ready to open a clinic then?

Those experts will definitely delve deeper into the matter.

Who is his master? How many years did he study medicine? Which school or lineage did he belong to?
Only if everything is perfect will I praise him as a "genius! A young national champion!"

After all, with the young barefoot doctor in "Red Rain" already having achieved such fame, no one would dare to drag him to dissect and study him.

However, if Chen Fan wanted to run back by then, it would be extremely difficult.

Moreover, even if he manages to run back to Lujiawan and stay there, he won't have any peace and quiet. He won't have to do anything else every day; all his time will be spent dealing with people seeking medical advice and medicine.

Therefore, he absolutely could not be exposed at this time, and all the editing work of the First Aid Manual was now completely unrelated to him.

However, he did not waste his time. Hao Liyang invited him over to teach emergency room doctors from other hospitals several new first aid methods.

Chen Fan was happy to do so and happily went to the hospital to gain experience points.

Having visited all the hospitals directly under the Municipal Health Bureau, and finding no need to go to the infectious disease hospital, Yan Liyuan contacted another district hospital that was no less capable than several People's Hospitals.

Coincidentally, it was the "new urban area" they had just visited, called Hongxing Hospital, which is dedicated to serving employees of enterprises and institutions. Its facilities, personnel, and other aspects are second to none in the entire Yunhu area.

After all, the surrounding area is full of wealthy companies and institutions with good benefits. The hospital itself is also well-funded and offers good benefits, attracting countless talented individuals.

If we disregard the convention of "prioritizing one's own son," Chen Fan should actually go to this hospital, because the area is full of factories and the frequency of accidents is far higher than in other areas. The emergency department of Hongxing Hospital is also the busiest and faces the most problems.

Unfortunately, he wasn't her biological child, and there was a district health department between them, so he could only be placed at the back.

Now that the directly affiliated hospitals have been inspected, Hao Liyang no longer hesitated to let Yan Liyuan bring Chen Fan here to take up his post, thus silencing the director of the district health department.

Okay, and I'll also get some perks in return.

Like several other hospitals, the president and director of the emergency department of Hongxing Hospital warmly welcomed Chen Fan's arrival.

In the past few days, Chen Fan's name has become a household name in the Yunhu City health system. At a young age, he has mastered excellent emergency medical skills and even created his own "airway foreign body removal method," which has been very effective.

What is most admirable is that he disregarded personal gain and loss, imparted his treatment experience without reservation, and decisively refused the cadre position in the health department, willingly becoming an ordinary barefoot doctor in the countryside.

Otherwise, when he does promotional work in the future, whether he goes to the provincial capital or even the capital, his name will definitely be on the list.

But now the name is vacant, waiting for a new candidate.

With no conflict of interest and the opportunity to learn new medical techniques, which hospital wouldn't like someone like that?
So Chen Fan settled down at Red Star Hospital that afternoon.

As usual, I first explained the "airway foreign body removal method" to all the doctors and nurses in the emergency department, and then briefly talked about the innovations in the original emergency treatment methods that I had developed "with many experts" in the past few days.

After finishing his routine tasks, Chen Fan put on a white coat, hat, and mask, and began to gain experience points in the hospital.

Unfortunately, there were no special cases here, so the results were far less effective than at the previous hospitals.

As Chen Fan rushed from the emergency department to the outpatient department and then to the inpatient department, constantly absorbing experience points, he thought about going to the central hospital again sometime to try to see all the cases he hadn't seen before.

However, this place also has its advantages, namely, there are a lot of workplace injuries!
Before he knew it, most of the afternoon had passed. He had gone through all sorts of strange and unusual workplace injuries, and his surgical experience points had increased considerably.

It was almost 6 o'clock when he returned to the emergency department, ready to leave for the day. Just then, a commotion suddenly broke out at the hospital entrance.

But nobody took it seriously.

The hospital may not have much else, but it has no shortage of patients and their families crying and wailing. Chen Fan encountered more than a dozen such incidents in just one afternoon, and he was already used to it.

But habits may be habits, the work still needs to be done.

Nurses had already rushed out pushing flatbeds, and Chen Fan and the head of the emergency department walked quickly to the lobby. Soon, they saw two beds being pushed in, each with a person lying on it, moaning and groaning, surrounded by a number of people.

The head of the emergency department immediately rushed over, asking, "What's wrong?"

Then two voices rang out at the same time.

"Doctor, please help me! I've been bitten by rats! There are so many rats!" "Doctor, please take a look at me first. I've been bitten several times on my hands and face, and I also have scratches. My legs have been bitten too."

Upon hearing this, the head of the emergency department immediately took two steps back without saying a word, and the nurse next to him shouted, "The rat may carry the plague. You may get infected if you are bitten by rat fleas. The patient's droplets can also be transmitted to people. Everyone stay away!"

The crowd that had just brought them over, practically glued to them, immediately scattered, their faces filled with terror, revealing the two "victims" in the middle.

At this moment, Chen Fan also confirmed the patient's identity. He had recognized the voice from that Liu Jie earlier, but the scream had distorted the sound, so he couldn't be sure at first. Now that he saw her, well, he was sure, it was her!
Chen Fan found it a bit strange. He and Brother Mouse had discussed it carefully and agreed to launch the attack at night, when all the good doctors would be off duty and only a few cats in the emergency department would still be on duty, allowing them to enjoy themselves a little longer.

Why did we act ahead of schedule?
The head of the emergency department, unaware that the culprit was right behind him, immediately responded calmly, "Everyone put on your masks and protective suits, then put the masks back on them before treating the wounds. Security department, keep a close watch on everyone here; none of the people who brought the patient here are allowed to leave."

Those who had helped immediately became unhappy.

"I'm on the night shift tonight. If I can't make it, you'll have to pay me my wages."

"The company is very busy, with a huge amount of production tasks. Can you take responsibility if it's delayed?"

Some people don't say a word at all, they just charge forward headfirst.

But what came towards them were several rifles.

Everyone immediately stopped in their tracks, huddled together, and dared not move.

The head of the emergency department didn't even bother to look at them, and turned to point to a nurse on the outermost edge, "Report to the health department immediately that there are patients who have been bitten or scratched by rats. Ask the infectious disease hospital to be prepared and conduct tests for hemorrhagic fever, plague, and rabies."

The people on the perimeter immediately responded and ran quickly into the hospital.

The two people lying on the flatbed were terrified when they heard the words of the head of the emergency department.

Sister Liu collapsed onto the bed and rolled her eyes.

Plague! People can die!

Another man in his thirties burst into tears and snot, crying out, "Help! Doctor, you have to save me! I can't die..."

Several security personnel quickly put on protective suits and masks, grabbed white cloths, and rushed over to cover the two of them, while simultaneously tying them up tightly with ropes.

Chen Fan, watching from the corner, couldn't help but shiver.

So rude!
At this moment, the head of the emergency department turned around and said to Chen Fan, "Teacher Chen, you are wearing a mask and are so far away, you should not be affected, so please do not come over. You should leave immediately. Everyone who has been in contact with patients here needs to be temporarily isolated and can only leave after the examination is completed."

Chen Fan immediately raised his hand to acknowledge the visit, saying, "Thank you for your hard work, goodbye!"

After saying that, he turned and ran without hesitation.

The head of the emergency department paused for a moment, then nodded slightly and said to those around him, "See? That's what professionalism is. In an emergency, don't waste time talking nonsense. Following the rules is the most appropriate way! Got it?"

The people around responded in unison, "We've got it!"

Then they glared at the two people on the flatbed. If it weren't for them, this wouldn't have happened. They wouldn't be able to leave the house for at least three days!
……

Chen Fan took off his white coat, hat, and mask, and left the hospital with a light step.

plague?

That's impossible!

Plague is usually spread by fleas. He tricked those rats into taking a bath in alcohol, which eliminated all viruses and fleas, so they were not afraid at all.

The alcohol came from that man's house, and even the rice and candy he traded with the rats belonged to them. Since they were both the deputy director's sons, they shouldn't be short of these things.

However, the rabies virus inside the teeth was not within his consideration. After all, rabies is only a Class B infectious disease, right? If you are not bitten, you don't need to worry.

Well, I still hope it's not rabies; that's so uncomfortable. I wish them good health!

Humming a little tune, Chen Fan happily got into the tricycle and left the chaotic Red Star Hospital.

As the car drove out of the hospital gate, he looked back and thought to himself, "After all this trouble, I wonder how long this will last?"
……

The next morning, Chen Fan got up very early as usual.

I had breakfast with many experts in the guesthouse canteen.

While drinking his porridge, Hao Liyang said, "Xiao Chen, yesterday Hongxing Hospital admitted two patients who had been bitten by rats. Were you there at the time?"

Chen Fan immediately said embarrassedly, "Yes, yes, and I saw the patient with my own eyes. It's just that the head of the emergency department asked me to leave, but I thought I had to give a lecture at the health school today, so I deserted."

Hao Liyang turned to look at him, smiled and waved his hand, "We followed the emergency regulations, and it was Lao Zhao who gave the order, so what kind of deserter are we?"

An elderly expert with gray hair across from me smiled and said, "That's right. When I went to Hongxing Hospital yesterday to inquire about the situation, Old Zhao specifically praised you."

Chen Fan was a little confused. "You even praised me?"

The old expert laughed and said, "That's right. Not showing off or acting like a hero, but resolutely obeying orders and following hygiene standards are very standard doctor behaviors. He even called on all doctors to learn from you."

Chen Fan was stunned. After a two-second pause, he quickly raised his hands and said, "Please spare me, I can't bear the embarrassment."

If this gets out, it's hard to say whether he'll be seen as a role model or a negative example.

However, given his current level of fame within the healthcare system, it's probably already out in the news, right?
Chen Fan listened to the cheerful laughter and teasing around him, but his heart was ice-cold.

He pretended not to hear the teasing, and when the laughter subsided, he asked curiously, "How are those two doing? Have they tested positive for the plague?"

Yan Liyuan shook his head and then said, "Both of them have been transferred to the infectious disease hospital for observation. Other people who had close contact with them have also been required to be quarantined at Hongxing Hospital. From the current situation, no trace of the virus has been found."

However, the incubation period for the plague virus is 2 to 6 days, and can be as long as 9 days. Yesterday, we gave the hospital a strict order that these people must be isolated in the hospital for a week. In addition, the cotton mill dormitory area must be thoroughly disinfected and close contacts must be isolated to ensure that nothing goes wrong.

my country has suffered from the plague before. When the country was first established, a major plague broke out in the north. It was under the personal command of Mr. Li that the plague was eradicated in two months.

Even decades later, we cannot say that the plague has been eradicated; we can only say that it has been put in a cage. However, cases of plague still occasionally occur.

It's no wonder they were on high alert.

Chen Fan silently made the sign of the cross in his mind, Amitabha!
It seems we should be more careful with rats in the future; next time, we should use snakes instead.
