Vol 5 Chapter 13: Public announcement

The earliest record of Spanish flu appeared in the Finsen barracks in Kansas, U.S. Before lunch on March 11, 1918, a soldier at the barracks felt fever, sore throat, and headache. He went to the army hospital to see a doctor. Cold.
However, what happened next was unexpected: By noon, more than 1oo soldiers had similar symptoms. A few days later on the weekend, there were already more than 5oo "cold" patients in the barracks.
Soon it spread to 3 cities including Detroit, and it quickly spread. In April, some patients brought the virus into Europe, and then spread rapidly.
Influenza entered Bulgaria in June, and Ferdinand declared national martial law and started universal epidemic prevention.
In order to do a good job in epidemic prevention, the Ministry of Health has mandated health regulations as follows:
1. Anyone must take a hot bath at least twice a week, and boil the water first, and then use it after the water has cooled down naturally. It is forbidden to use cold water for bathing;
2, so the drinking water must be boiled, drinking water is prohibited;
3. Wash your hands with disinfectant water before meals, and factories must install faucets;
4. Anti-virus must be carried out daily in public places, and insecticides should be carried out in all residential areas, mainly mosquitoes, flies, cockroaches, etc .;
5. Pets are quarantined, and close contact with animals is prohibited. Feeding must be kept at a distance. The government organizes humans to hunt and kill animals that stray into the city;
6. The government puts on masks for free, and everyone must wear them in public;
7. All schools are closed. Before the epidemic is over, everyone is not allowed to go in and out, and the additional expenses will be borne by the government.
8. Factories and enterprises must organize a comprehensive disinfection once a month to establish a disease isolation room;
9. Temporarily close some entertainment venues. It is recommended that everyone go out without incident;
...
Comprehensive epidemic prevention is the first time by the Bulgarian Ministry of Health. Everyone has no experience. How to control the epidemic?
Bulgaria seems to be back in the World War once again, everything has become more serious, and even more serious, even the colorful entertainment life has been cut across the board.
Not only is the martial law in China, even the palace is no exception, the virus does not recognize people, but how horrible Spanish flu is, Ferdinand knows, how could he not pay attention to it?
It is even more stringent. Everyone in the palace must be examined by a doctor every day. Once they have any symptoms, they can be declared on vacation. At least until the epidemic is not over, they are not used for work.
Constantine stepped into the palace very unaccustomed, and a pungent smell of disinfection water came on his face. Zou frowned and was checked by doctors before being put in the palace.
Yes, he thinks that the Bulgarian government is too big a problem now, although the flu has burst, but the large-scale death has not yet occurred. Like most people, Constantine also thinks that this is just a common virus cold.
Of course, common colds in this era are also dead, but most young and strong can resist the past, and the death rate of the old and weak is higher.
Constantine wanted to persuade Ferdinand to lift the national martial law. Now the epidemic prevention work has severely hindered the normal operation of the Bulgarian economy. Many projects have been terminated, factories have been ordered to ban overtime, and shopping malls have become depressed.
However, after seeing the posture in the palace, he realized that the king's attention to the epidemic was beyond his imagination. No matter how strictly guarded against the outside world, no one would restrict his travel in this phase!
But when he got here, he was checked by a doctor before entering the palace, and then forced to change his clothes. The attendant explained that the clothes may carry viruses. For the safety of the king, please change to more secure clothes. !!
Constantine was a little speechless. Well, the king is the king. This pride is not comparable to others. Everyone who enters the palace must change their sterile clothes.
This is not only for them, including the guards who come in and out every day, and the personnel responsible for delivering supplies, each of them is given a set each day.
Constantine doesn't think that these clothes will be taken back or reused many times. The king's face must not be lost. The cost of tens of thousands of levs per day is indispensable!
Watching the autumn trees and seeing the stern position in the palace, he knew that the matter was big, and now the epidemic has not yet appeared in Sofia?
...
With a depressed mood, Constantine met Ferdinand, who was drinking tea, both wearing masks, and the picture was so full of comedy.
...
Constantine asked in confusion: "Your Majesty, are you too trivial to make a big deal? This is not the Middle Ages where the Black Death spread. Do you need such a big fanfare?
Although the spread of the flu is wide this time, it is not harmful to the human body. Now all over Europe are talking about our epidemic prevention work, this ... "
Ferdinand interrupted: "Are we reduced to laughter again?"
Constantine nodded, although the Bulgarian government has not been ridiculed by the outside world once or twice, but unlike before, most of the previous Bulgarian government's practices have been proven correct!
At present, at least Constantine himself has not yet appeared, what is the reason for doing so!
Ferdinand smiled and said, "Let them laugh a while, and wait for them to cry in the future!
If action is not taken in a timely manner, I am afraid that the death toll caused by this pandemic may not be less than the death toll caused by the Black Death in the Middle Ages! "
Constantine's face changed drastically. As a pure European, he did not listen to the legend of the famous "Black Death". It only caused one-third of the Europeans' death at that time. European civilization directly A hundred years back is enough to scare anyone!
"Your Majesty, isn't this exaggerated? If it is the Black Death, a large number of patients have died now? But there are many places in the world where the flu explodes, and the phenomenon of massive deaths of patients has not occurred? Constantine asked in doubt.
Ferdinand sighed, and then explained: "I was told by a biological expert that the flu virus is mutating this time. In Darwin's words, the virus is evolving. At present, it only has high transmission. Once it and other high The lethal virus has combined, and it is very likely that it will eventually evolve again-Black Death! "
Constantine can't wait to give him a slap now. What's wrong with this example? Let's talk about the Black Death. This time, it's true!
Although this is only a possibility, it must also be taken seriously, otherwise when it may become a reality, everyone is ready to cry!
Seeing Constantine's expression, Ferdinand knew that he was scared. It is estimated that any normal European would be scared when he heard that "the black death is here again"!
Ferdinand comforted: "Don't be so nervous, this is just a possibility, and it is the worst guess!
At our current level of medical care, the Black Death is not completely ineffective, and most patients can be cured. If you are worried, you can also check the information. The Black Death was also born in the East, and they were stopped by them. The damage is much less than we thought!
This flu is at most a smallpox, and it has not yet reached the level of destroying human civilization! "
Well, forgive Ferdinand's ignorance. Although there are not as many casualties caused by smallpox as black death, the influence in European history is not small at all, which directly caused the Eastern Roman Empire to be completed!
Therefore, he thought that he gave an example of fewer deaths, but the impact on Constantine was still huge!
Whether it is smallpox or black death, it is easy to destroy the existence of an empire, and this "big flu" is actually far from reaching this level, after all, the death rate of 5% and the death rate of nearly 100% Rate is two completely different concepts!
After a moment of hard work, Constantine recovered from the shock and said with a bitter smile: "Your Majesty, I understand that even if this situation is only 1 in 10,000, we cannot take risks. Please rest assured that the Cabinet will urge The government is doing a good job in epidemic prevention! "
For Constantine, who has already become famous, any adventure may become a deadly stain in life. Taking Bulgaria to the present place, his historical status is not lower than that of Bismarck!
He was even more successful because Germany was already disabled and Bulgaria was still growing. It was no accident that when he returned to the field, Bulgaria was already the number one industrial power in Europe.
Even Europe's first power is very likely. This is convenient for Bulgaria and Prussia have similarities. Both sides are belligerent nations, and the combat effectiveness of the army is the strongest wave!
Other factors cannot destroy this country, but the "virus" is an exception. History has told him how fragile humans are in the face of disease.
So now the epidemic prevention work must be done well, and even he feels that the current epidemic prevention work is not strict enough and needs to be strengthened!
If the worst is not possible, that's the best. The big deal is that some human, material and financial resources are wasted, which are all within the scope of the Bulgarian government.
At most, it has been criticized by the outside world for being too epidemic-proof. Anyway, for such a highly-transmissible disease, the government must strengthen its epidemic prevention work for the safety of the people and political correctness!
If born, Bulgaria, which has been prepared, can also minimize losses, and even take advantage of this opportunity to other powers!
...
After returning to the cabinet, Constantine convened a cabinet meeting in the name of Xiang, seriously emphasized the epidemic prevention work, and issued a funny command in a very humorous way-declare war on the mice!
Content: Rats are the dirtiest creatures in the world and the greatest enemy of human beings. They are not qualified to live under the same sky as us!
Now on behalf of the Bulgarian government, I have officially declared war on rats. All citizens of Bulgaria, please take up the weapons in your hands and kill our enemies to make the world a better place!
Okay, the sequelae of the Black Death. Who made the Black Death spread that year? In order to prevent micro-duration, Constantine decided to kill the mice first, anyway, no one can scream for the mice!
This can also be regarded as a flavoring agent in Bulgaria's nervous life in 1918, and then a variety of rat killing methods have been staged in Bulgaria. Medicine, pressure, check, shut, pinch, turn, irrigate, dig, stick and shoot The means had debuted first!
It can be said that the mice crossing the street shouted, and the mice disappeared into the sight of the Bulgarian people in the shortest time. Of course, this was only short-term.
In an age of rat poison and rodenticides everywhere, rats are boring, and rats have to make strategic shifts, leaving the city and turning to the enemy's weak mountains to persist in resistance!
In September, Bulgaria, which had been under martial law for more than three months, was waiting for the people to finally wait for the official accurate answer.
The Bulgarian Ministry of Health has publicly announced the epidemic-"Report to the Bulgarian National People's Book", and issued warnings to countries around the world:
It is a pity that human history has once again exploded on a large scale, and now the Ministry of Health once again reminds you to do a good job in epidemic prevention. Although our medicine is very advanced, we are still vulnerable to diseases.
After research by our biologists and medical scientists, the current pandemic flu is not a common virus cold in the past. There is a virus that is more destructive to the human body behind the flu!
At present, this virus is still in the incubation period. Since it has not yet exploded, we cannot clearly say what kind of impact it will cause after the explosion. In short, the result must be catastrophic!
And biologists also show that the virus is constantly recombining during transmission. Each recombination is an increase in toxicity and infectivity, which also means that the virus is not unique, and we have no way to study it in the short term Come out with special effects.
The symptoms of patients after infection are mainly fever, cough, runny nose, myalgia, etc. Most of them are accompanied by severe pneumonia. In severe cases, heart and kidney failure cause death, and the mortality rate is very high.
Now we are calling on medical research institutions around the world to join this research together, so that we can develop drugs that can cure this virus at an early date and contribute to human survival!
At the same time, we also warn governments around the world to be prepared for epidemic prevention to avoid catastrophic consequences after a virus outbreak!
...
Bulgarian scientists are not eating dry rice. Under the strong request of Ferdinand, considerable results have been achieved in the past few months, but no special medicine exists!
Everyone's virus is almost not the same ~ EbookFREE.me ~ Prescribing a special effect in this context is completely ridiculous, so Ferdinand chose to make the news public.
As for whether European and American countries can prescribe vaccines or cure viruses, scientists have clearly told him that it does not exist under the current level of science and technology!
If you just prescribed a cure for a certain patient, they can already do it now, but the drug that is suitable for curing most people still has no way to overcome it!
Ferdinand is neither a Virgin nor a butcher. After the epidemic was made public, he was no longer involved!
This kind of thing is just a matter of destiny, some people believe it, believe it, don't believe it, anyway, the climax of death is coming soon, and now the best time to actually defend has been missed!
