Chapter 1636: Keep a Close Watch

"Alright then." Chen Yu pondered for a moment, and he nodded slightly: "Time is of the essence, let's go now. By the way, how are those few patients at the hospital?"

"They are still under observation at the hospital. I have my trusted aides keeping a close watch on them, so you can rest assured about that side; there won't be any problems," Chuan Naizi said.

"Keep a close watch. You must know that your aunt's investigation hasn't ended yet, and Yamamoto Masao could look for trouble at any time," Chen Yu cautioned.

"I know, don't worry. My people have been watching there the whole time, and I guarantee there won't be any issues," Chuan Naizi nodded.

Chen Yu arrived at Datian Town and saw that many temporary isolation pods had already been built there, and an aid team of over thirty people had already arrived and set up camp.

The team leader was named Zhou Qi, a woman in her thirties who worked at a domestic virus research institute and possessed very rich clinical experience.

"Hello, Mr. Chen. My name is Zhou Qi, and I am here from the country to assist you. Before we set off, our leadership instructed me to follow your arrangements here," Zhou Qi extended her hand and shook hands with Chen Yu.

"Good, thank you, Ms. Zhou, for coming here in a time of crisis. What I want to say is that this matter is very serious; if there is the slightest carelessness, it is highly likely to bring disaster to the country," Chen Yu said earnestly: "So, since you have come here, we should set aside our prejudices."

"I understand," Zhou Qi nodded slightly and said: "I came here specifically to solve the problem, and I will set aside national prejudices."

"That's good. Has the laboratory been set up?" Chen Yu asked.

"The laboratory has been set up, and all the preliminary preparations are in place. We have already begun research on the activity of the virus. If Mr. Chen has any needs, please let us know immediately."

"Good, don't worry about the virus activity research; there's nothing worth studying. Traditional Chinese Medicine can completely cure it. The virus is not that mature; the virus released here by the Yuanyang Society is just an Experimental Subject," Chen Yu said: "What you need to do now is find all the infected people and gather them here; I will treat them."

"A solution has already been found?" Zhou Qi was stunned. She looked at Chen Yu with some disbelief. She had come here with such a grand display, determined to make a big impact, but she had not expected that Chen Yu had already solved it.

"There are already three cases about to recover and be discharged, treated with Traditional Chinese Medicine," Chen Yu said: "It's just that this side involves some high-level disputes, so this matter cannot be made public for the time being, but you must believe that this matter can be completely resolved."

"Alright then," Zhou Qi completely lost her temper: "My superior said that upon arriving here, everything must be listened to from Mr. Chen, so I have no objections to Mr. Chen's work distribution."

"Saying it like that means you do have objections," Chen Yu glanced at Zhou Qi, and he couldn't help but smile: "Do you feel like you punched a cotton ball and have no strength left?"

"I suppose so," Zhou Qi said somewhat listlessly.

Truth be told, she had gathered all her energy and rushed here so boldly just to fight a beautiful battle, but she hadn't expected that just as she arrived and before she could even set up her stance, Chen Yu would tell her the fire had already been extinguished?

"Things aren't that simple. Some people, I'm afraid, don't want these things to disappear," Chen Yu said: "And we are not in the country; the political situation here is also quite chaotic, so you must be prepared to face both overt and covert schemes."

"I understand," Zhou Qi nodded.

"Professor Zhou, one case has already been sent over," just at this moment, one of Zhou Qi's assistants said: "Her condition is extremely serious. It has already been 24 hours, and I feel there is a possibility of the disease breaking out and causing death at any time."

"Let's go over and take a look," Chen Yu turned and followed Zhou Qi over.

Inside the isolation room, a patient had been sent over. Her breathing was very heavy; even with a ventilator on, her breathing was still extremely rapid.

Moreover, her eyes were filled with bloodshot veins, looking extremely terrifying.

"Doctor Chen, why aren't you wearing a protective suit?" Zhou Qi, who had already prepared herself, couldn't help but be shocked when she saw that Chen Yu had no protection on his body.

One must know that the contagiousness of this thing is extremely strong, and she and her assistant felt terrified even while wearing hazmat suits.

But Chen Yu actually didn't take any precautions and came straight here. Was he really not afraid at all?

"It's fine, this kind of virus cannot hurt me. Don't worry, let's go in," Chen Yu said indifferently, then walked in first.

Zhou Qi was stunned, and she couldn't help but shake her head secretly. There really are people in this world who aren't afraid of death; she was impressed.

Chen Yu walked in and began to observe the patient's condition. This patient was in her thirties, a housewife.

She lived apart from her husband, had no children, and had been to the seaside before the onset of the disease; it should have been transmitted at that time.

"Has the source of infection been clarified?" Chen Yu asked.

"It has been clarified. Her trajectory is all recorded here," Zhou Qi handed over a folder: "It's all recorded inside. She went to a restricted area before being infected, and many people caught the disease in that place."

"The source of infection is confirmed. Her condition is considered moderate, not critical," Chen Yu closed the folder: "Next, I will treat her."

"Do you need to use antibiotic-type drugs?" Zhou Qi asked.

She felt that if this kind of illness were treated with Traditional Chinese Medicine, it would be somewhat unbelievable.

Because this is not a simple matter; after all, this is a viral infection. In her understanding, these conditions require treatment with Western antibiotic-type drugs.

As for Traditional Chinese Medicine... she didn't think it would have any effect on this kind of viral disease.

Of course, it wasn't that she wasn't patriotic, but whether domestically or internationally, there had never been any precedent for this, which is why she brought up whether to use antibiotics.

"Do you think these things are useful?" Chen Yu took out his needles and said indifferently: "If they were useful, this would just be an ordinary infectious disease and wouldn't need to be blown out of proportion like this."

Zhou Qi was stunned. Chen Yu was absolutely right; if this matter were a simple viral infection that could be solved with antibiotics, it wouldn't be a matter at all.

Now that the Fusang side is making such a big fuss and elevating this matter to a critical level, it shows that it must be very tricky. She realized that the authorities must have already thought that using antibiotics is impractical.

"Do you feel that Traditional Chinese Medicine is not good at treating viruses?" Chen Yu said while beginning to perform Acupuncture.
