Chapter 2979: with translation of chapter title

Collective poisoning, still middle school students, this is definitely a big deal.

What Zheng Ren remembers is the incident where drinking milk at 422 Yulin caused collective poisoning of 251 students.

The outcome of that incident was fortunately lucky amidst misfortune, the kids were fine. This time… just make sure there are no problems.

Thinking about it, I couldn't care less about the Surgery live broadcast; this post definitely needs the finest forces to go up, to avoid causing a major disaster.

Zheng Ren didn't hesitate, striding toward the Emergency Department.

Now there's no information at all; talking about anything else is nonsense. Better wait until we get to the Emergency Department and contact the Emergency Rescue Service doctors before saying anything.

"How far is Er Zhong from here, Director Lin?" Zheng Ren asked while walking.

Zheng Ren and Su Yun strode with large steps; although they hadn't started running yet, they were anxious at this moment, not considering Lin Ge's feelings. Director Lin, trotting behind them, upon hearing Boss Zheng's inquiry, immediately gasped and said: "Emergency Rescue Service should be able to make a round trip in 15 Minute."

"Hmm." Zheng Ren nodded, heading to the Emergency Department via the Fire Escape.

After exiting the elevator, the lobby of the Emergency Department was still relatively quiet; at this time the children from Emergency Rescue Service had not yet arrived.

"Manager Zhou, how is it? Any new developments?" Su Yun shouted.

"The ambulance hasn't arrived yet; I'm preparing things." Zhou Litao busily tapped the gastric tube, checked the gastric lavage machine, and also the related rescue medicines.

I don't know how many people will be sent to 912 for treatment; you can never have too many rescue medicines.

Saying this, Zhou Litao wrote a note, letting the nurse go to the pharmacy to first borrow some backup rescue medicines.

"Still not here? What's the situation over there?" Su Yun asked.

"It should be soon; several hospitals' ambulances went together." Zhou Litao said hurriedly: "The city's 120 Emergency Rescue Service command center said the children had severe nausea and vomiting."

This time period happens to be lunchtime; it must be food poisoning, Zheng Ren thought to himself.

Severe gastrointestinal reactions, violent nausea and vomiting, tracing the source, symptomatic treatment—after all this is done, today's Shou Bing probably won't happen.

Zheng Ren had no regrets; settling this batch of children's affairs is the Key Point.

"Boss Zheng, phone's coming!" Zhou Litao received the call, immediately waved at Zheng Ren, and said.

Zheng Ren and Su Yun strode after Zhou Litao to a relatively quiet corner; Zhou Litao had no intention of relaying, but directly turned on the speakerphone.

"How is it!" Zhou Litao asked.

"Two vehicles brought back eight children; their nausea and vomiting are quite severe." The Emergency 120 doctor on the other end said anxiously, and at the same time vomiting sounds could be heard.

"Turn sideways, turn sideways, be careful not to aspirate!" the Emergency 120 doctor commanded.

Establish a vein channel, keep the vehicle steadier!

The urgent voice mixed with the violent vomiting sound, making people's adrenaline spike.

"Do the patients have any other symptoms?" Su Yun asked.

"Looks like none for now." The Emergency 120 doctor said, "Xiao Sun, keep a sample of the vomit, label it carefully, don't mix it up!"

The Emergency 120 doctor spoke on both ends, busy as hell. However, everyone has experienced this situation; it's easy to understand which sentences are directed at oneself and which are medical orders.

Zhou Litao glanced at Zheng Ren, then at Su Yun.

"Hang up, we'll talk when they arrive." Su Yun said.

"Mm." Zhou Litao immediately hung up the phone.

"It's definitely acute gastroenteritis, nothing serious." Su Yun said, "Prepare fluids, tell the lab to output the bacterial culture as fast as possible."

"The president will be here soon, I'll report." Zhou Litao said.

Zheng Ren nodded; there's nothing to say about this, fluid therapy prevents ion imbalance complications, then wait for bacterial culture or microscopic examination to identify bacteria, after results come back just give anti-inflammatories.

"I'll report to Director Ye." Lin Ge said.

As they were speaking, a group rushed over, led by Director Yan.

Zheng Ren felt a bit dazed, still remembering the time when Fu Yuan students had collective hysteria, Director Yan got so anxious he had a heart attack.

Would he add to the chaos… Zheng Ren pondered.

Seeing Director Yan leading the team to the Emergency Department, Lin Ge felt compelled, bumped Zheng Ren's back with his shoulder, "Boss Zheng!"

Lin Ge said softly.

"Go pick them up, are you waiting for Director Yan to come pick you up?" Su Yun said contemptuously.

Zheng Ren frowned, looking at Director Yan's flushed System Panel, and strode over.

"Director Yan." Zheng Ren greeted from afar.

"Have the patients been brought in?" Director Yan asked solemnly.

"Not yet." Zheng Ren said, "Director, take care of your health."

After saying that, he shifted slightly, giving up the C position to Zhou Litao.

Director Yan paused, also recalling the previous incident, he gave a wry smile and said: "How much longer until the patients arrive?"

Estimated 5 Minute until they return; I just contacted the Emergency 120 doctor. They said the patients on board have severe nausea and vomiting, no other symptoms." Zhou Litao said, "Preliminary consideration is acute gastroenteritis; gastric lavage and fluid treatment are already ready."

"Mm." Director Yan nodded.

Also, suggest contacting the lab to get bacterial culture or microscopic differentiation results as fast as possible.

Vice President Yuan said behind Director Yan: "Already contacted."

With the sound of the Emergency Rescue Service ambulance coming from afar, the entire Emergency Department was immersed in a solemn atmosphere.

Zhou Litao had medical staff push a stretcher to wait at the entrance of the Emergency passage for the Emergency Rescue Service, saving every second.

Soon, two Emergency 120 vehicles appeared in sight, sirens blaring.

The medical staff coordinated well; one could tell they'd undergone countless drills. The two vehicles brought down eight children, who were successively pushed into the already prepared Emergency Resuscitation Room.

Amidst the hustle, Zheng Ren saw the children's System Panel diagnosis showing the expected acute gastroenteritis, but this wasn't the primary diagnosis, just a symptom. There was also— a copper poisoning diagnosis.

Copper poisoning? Zheng Ren stood outside the Emergency Resuscitation Room, pondering; this diagnosis is not common.

Acute copper poisoning mainly results from inhaling fine copper oxide or carbonate dust or fumes, causing metal fume fever; other rare cases involve ingestion or skin absorption/misuse poisoning.

But a place like Er Zhong definitely wouldn't have heavy industry; every inch of land is precious—whoever opened a smelting factory there would lose their pants.

He estimated that these children had eaten food containing copper, and Zheng Ren made his first judgment.

"Boss, what are you thinking? Go in and help." Su Yun whispered a reminder beside Zheng Ren.

"There's a problem with a child." Zheng Ren strode over to the side of the heaviest 14- or 15-year-old girl and called out, "Help me press her down, don't let her move."
