Chapter 2987: : Rodent Control

Not long after, Secretary Liu and two western medical researchers went to the entrance of Yamato Hospital, and people from Han Wenshan had sent the mice over.
The mice are still living in the cage now, and there is no evidence of infection with this plague virus.
The two Western medical researchers took the cage to the research room, and then tested the mouse cells by extracting cells from the mice.
What surprised the staff in the laboratory was that these mice really carried the plague virus genes.
Originally, these western doctors used mice to conduct research, but now they have discovered that the mice actually carry the plague virus.
It shows that this kind of mouse can spread this plague virus to other people, and these researchers can also test drugs through these mice.
However, it is certain that the rats in Chinatown and even Yokohama may have carried such a large number of plague viruses.
Therefore, the two Western medical researchers hope that the government will take anti-rodent actions to prevent the rats from spreading the virus to more patients.
And now, what can be confirmed is that this virus can not only mutate, but there are even dead people infected with this virus.
Now Ye Chen and Yizi had returned to the separate ward to rest. Even though the inside had been cleaned up, Ye Chen still smelled an unpleasant smell of western medicine.
After Ye Chen opened the window, turned on the air conditioner, and asked Yizi to take a bath first, Ye Chen sat in the living room and watched TV.
After Yizi came out of the bath, Ye Chen asked Yizi to rest early, and he was going to see the patients again.
When he came out of the high-level ward and went to see Secretary Liu, he quickly learned from Secretary Liu that the rats over China Street did carry a large amount of plague virus.
Under such circumstances, if these mice spread the virus to humans through the food in restaurants in Chinatown, then it is very likely.
Of course, the most direct thing is that if this kind of rat bites, the wound is likely to be quickly infected with this plague virus.
This is correct to Ye Chen's guess. The Chinese old man who was the first to be infected with this plague virus was bitten and spread by the mouse that was infected with the plague virus.
However, where did the plague virus carried by these mice come from? This makes Ye Chen even more strange?
Only by finding the source of the spread of the plague can we control the spread of the plague. However, these things were done by the Japanese government's health department, and Ye Chen couldn't do it no matter how personally capable. What's more, compared with the plague area in Xiaowang Village where Ye Chen was now, in fact, he knew that he might not be as desperate as before.
However, since he came here to treat these Chinese and overseas Chinese compatriots, he didn't think about charging a penny, he just thought of doing his best to cure these patients.
After seeing the patients, Ye Chen went back to the superior ward, then took a hot bath, changed into the pajamas Yizi brought him, came out to dry his hair, and when he entered the room, he saw Yizi has lain down to rest.
However, when Ye Chen just came in, Yizi was hugging Ye Chen.
This is a hospital after all, and in this ward, people may have died before. Yizi has never slept in this environment before.
In the case of one person, Yizi was a little scared. However, when she saw Ye Chen, she no longer felt scared.
"I knew I told you not to come."
Ye Chen said.
"If I don't come, I don't know when I can see you again? What's more, I know how to translate and can help you."
Yizi said.
When Yizi was shrinking in Ye Chen’s arms, Ye Chen said,
One of the killers of this plague has been found. It’s the rats. But where did these rats get the plague virus and let them carry those viruses? For the plague virus, I still don’t know for the time being."
"Those disgusting mice?"
"It's them, maybe more than that. I don't know if those cockroaches and mosquitoes also carry this plague virus?"
At the beginning, in Xiaowang Village, and even other plague viruses, in addition to rats as the main plague spreader and carrier, like some mosquitoes, cockroaches are also likely to carry them.
Moreover, it is summer, and there are more mosquitoes in Japan. If someone carries this plague virus, it is likely to spread this plague virus to humans during the process of sucking blood.
As for those cockroaches, they often appear in any corner of the toilet, kitchen, or room. If they touch the food and the food is eaten by people, it is also possible that the cockroach also carries the plague virus. Belongs to a way of transmission.
Of course, in Ye Chen's view, the most important thing is the mice.
The next day, when Ye Chen woke up, it was around 7 o’clock in the morning. When he got up to wash, he was going to have breakfast with Yizi first, and then he went to visit the patients. Now both Ye Chen and Yizi changed to provide new His white coat, with a mask on, looks no different from the doctors here.
However, when Ye Chen just came out of the room, Secretary Liu and a person in charge of the Yamato Hospital came to look for him.
Ye Chen's discovery last night was undoubtedly very important for finding the way for the spread of the plague virus this time.
"Doctor Ye, the researchers have discovered that for the time being in Yokohama, they have found that these mice carry the plague virus, but they have not been found elsewhere in Japan."
Secretary Liu said.
"Then those cockroaches and mosquitoes have been studied?"
"These are not there yet."
Secretary Liu said.
However, when he heard Ye Chen say that, he felt that these mosquitoes and cockroaches were also likely to spread.
"In addition, there is a lot of tap water and other foods. I recommend that you first sterilize it before eating and drinking. Otherwise, it will still be dangerous."
The tap water in Japan is relatively clean, and those Japanese people can drink it directly. Unlike in China, it is hot to drink in China.
Therefore, Ye Chen also reminded that if the tap water also has this plague virus, then ordinary people will only be infected with this plague virus if they drink it.
"Yes, it is very likely that this virus exists in tap water."
The person in charge of the Yamato Hospital did not expect that Ye Chen made so many good suggestions. He felt that Ye Chen had very rich experience in this area. He learned from Secretary Liu that Ye Chen had rescued many patients in a plague area. When the time, the other party also understands.
However, large-scale rodent control operations have begun in Japan, especially in Yokohama. The Yokohama City Government has proposed that as long as a citizen kills a rat, one hundred yen will be rewarded, and the killed rat will be given a uniform high temperature fever Get rid of it to prevent the large-scale spread of those plague viruses.
