Chapter 1129: : Leprosy

Leprosy, in Western medicine, is a chronic infectious disease caused by the bacillus leprosy. The main lesions are the surrounding skin and nerves.
The clinical manifestations are numb skin damage, enlarged nerves, and even severe disability. The disease is widespread in the world, but my country is prevalent in Guangdong, Guangxi, Yunnan, Sichuan, Qinghai and other provinces and autonomous regions. After the founding of the People's Republic of China, this disease has been effectively controlled by combining Chinese and Western medicine.
The source of infection of leprosy is untreated leprosy patients, but it has direct and indirect infections. For example, the saliva of a carrier can easily cause infection.
Therefore, when I heard that I was going to visit leprosy patients in Leprosy Village, some people at the scene naturally changed their expressions.
For Leprosy Village, in fact, there are also many such villages in China. The main reason was that it was relatively backward in all aspects that year, and after a large-scale infection of this leprosy, they had to be isolated for treatment.
Later, even if some patients were cured, their bodies were already disabled, and in the eyes of ordinary people, even if they were cured, they still felt that they would still be contagious.
Under such circumstances, these former patients have suffered a lot of discrimination, so they can usually only be in a separate place, which becomes a leprosy village.
Leprosy villages are all infected patients. Some have not been completely cured, and some have been cured, but they have lost labor. In this situation, not only are they physically and mentally disabled, they can only rely on the absence of labor. The government and society help to live.
There are still several provinces in the country that have such leprosy villages, but before, Ye Chen had heard from his grandfather that he had not personally seen the patients.
As for the environment here in Vietnam, in fact, many places are similar to those in Guangxi and Yunnan in China. It is humid, with a large population concentration, poor and backward. If someone is infected with leprosy, they are often easily infected.
Therefore, the emergence of leprosy villages here in Vietnam is actually also learning from China. Those patients who have suffered leprosy are concentrated in one place to live, receive treatment, and after they have fully recovered, if there is still a labor force, they should be raised by themselves or their relatives. Therefore, if you lose labor, you can only rely on the government to feed it.
However, the patients who are participating in the finals now have to go to Leprosy Village. If they quit now, it means that they have given up the competition.
This not only means losing a large amount of bonuses, but also embarrassing people from all over the world.
Ye Chen saw that Huang Xiaowei's expression was not good. Ye Chen looked at Liao Bingxue and said, "Sister Bingxue, why don't you stay here with her. I will come here to pick you up when I finish the competition."
Ye Chen felt that he brought these two women here, maybe the little gangsters in Hanoi would not follow here.
"I'll go with you to see." Liao Bingxue insisted.
In this case, Ye Chen could only take her over.
Like last time, when there was a large-scale plague outbreak in Xiaowang Village, Liao Bingxue still followed.
Now it's just going to Leprosy Village, how could Liao Bingxue be scared?
Liao Bingxue followed, Huang Xiaowei naturally couldn't stay here, but could only follow.
The person in charge of the organizer confirms that everyone here will be there, so naturally they need to prepare a new white coat, mask and gloves for the individual, so as not to infect those leprosy bacteria as much as possible.
Moreover, when they finish participating in the game, they will have to disinfect all aspects.
Ye Chen and the others waited there for about half an hour, and after the organizer was ready, they got into the car again.
When getting into the car, Ye Chen still sat in the middle seat, with Liao Bingxue and Huang Xiaowei sitting on both sides, so that when Huang Xiaowei was dizzy in the car, Ye Chen could give her a massage to relieve her.
After a ride for about an hour, when it finally stopped at the foot of an endless mountain, there were already people waiting there.
Those who are waiting are not the people in the Leprosy Village, but other people who brought white coats, masks, gloves, and when they came, besides visiting the leprosy patients, they brought a lot of food, oil and salt to distribute to them. People living in Leprosy Village.
Because all the people living in it were originally infected with leprosy, some have been cured, and some have not been cured.
Therefore, when they lose their labor, the government and related social organizations will send people to send rice, oil and salt. Otherwise, if they don't eat or drink, they can only starve to death in it.
Now when the organizers are distributing white coats, masks, and gloves to everyone in the village, Ye Chen took three sets, one for himself, Liao Bingxue and Huang Xiaowei.
Ye Chen could see that these white coats were all new, and there was no other peculiar smell after putting them on.
Soon, they all dressed up, and then put on masks and gloves. They didn't look much different from the doctors in the hospital.
Of course, the villagers inside, in fact, are the same as those in the Leprosy villages in China. If they see doctors in white coats coming in, they are still scared if they see other people coming in.
Because they are afraid of being discriminated against, they are also afraid of spreading the disease to others.
Now when these doctors and other people came in, someone at the entrance of the village first noticed that when they shouted in Vietnamese, many villagers who could walk came out.
These villagers looked like other Vietnamese people, black and thin, but they looked even worse. Many of their limbs did not look like normal human limbs, and their faces looked crooked.
At this point, Ye Chen had long thought that Huang Xiaowei and Liao Bingxue had seen it for the first time, and they were afraid to look over.
Ye Chen and Liao Bingxue followed the group of people. The organizer first distributed oil, salt and rice to every household inside, and then summoned these contestants to a simple square in the village.
There are chairs and stools now, but not many people sit down.
While Ye Chen and He Qimingna and other contestants were standing there, the person in charge of the organizer said: "The village chief here just said that there is a villager in Leprosy Village here with a leprosy patient who has a very serious attack again. The previous effective The medicine has no effect now, see your doctors, how can he cure him?"
Ye Chen didn't understand Vietnamese, but when the female translator next to her translated the Vietnamese, Ye Chen already understood.
The other party meant that they wanted them to treat the leprosy patient. If anyone had a good treatment effect, then the ranking of the results of the Eastern Medicine Competition would naturally come out.
