Francistown is located in the east of Botswana, near the border with Zimbabwe... Yes, it is the country of Zimbabwe currency.
It used to be the earliest gold rush center in Africa, and now has a population of about 200,000. The officially registered AIDS number is as high as 85,000, as high as 42.5%, which is terrifying.
I don’t know if it’s more chaotic because of its proximity to Zimbabwe.
Francistown is about 450㎞ from Gaborone, the capital, and Zhou Wen and the others depart at 12 noon.
The bus goes all the way east.
After passing through the British country house-style buildings in the capital, the scenery along the way becomes majestic and beautiful.
When the vast grassland appeared in the eyes, most of the young people in the car who had never been to Africa all leaned over to the window to watch.
Others couldn't help but exclaimed.
Botswana is like a country with filters, it is simply beautiful.
Everything is as beautiful as the photos under the photographer's lens.
Of course, the country's good natural environment protection has a lot to do with its small population.
Botswana covers an area of 580,000 square kilometers, which is larger than one Sichuan province + one Tianfu in China, but its population is only 2.2 million.
And how many people in Sichuan Province and Tianfu together?
In 2019, the permanent population of Sichuan Province was 83.75 million, and Tianfu was 3124.
The two add up to 114.99 million people.
The fraction of a fraction of 4.99 million is more than double that of Botswana.
So when there are more people, some things are naturally difficult to manage.
Zhou Wen and Wei Dong sat at the back.
Wei Dong has led a team to Africa many times to provide international assistance. He is very familiar with the local customs here and introduced Zhou Wen to Zhou Wen along the way.
"In addition to AIDS, Botswana's tuberculosis rate is also one of the highest rates of tuberculosis in the world.
Because it has a high incidence of AIDS, and once the immune system is severely weakened, tuberculosis, an infectious bacterial infection, begins to spread and eventually leads to death..."
After a pause, Wei Dong followed: "In addition, cryptococcal meningitis induced by HIV is also very serious in Botswana. According to incomplete statistics, in 2018, Botswana died of patients with cryptococcal meningitis. There are about 47,000, accounting for 7.9% of all deaths from this disease in Africa."
"There are so many..."
Zhou Wen was shocked when he heard this.
He has seen relevant data and literature before. Cryptococcosis has about 1 million new infections worldwide every year, and in sub-Saharan Africa, about 600,000 people die from the disease every year.
However, data is always data. When all of this is in front of your eyes, and the touch is timely, the shock is unparalleled.
Wei Dong nodded: "This data is official statistics, the actual number of deaths should be more than that."
Zhou Wen didn't know what to say for a while.
"You can successfully clone cryptococcosis serum cells, it's really amazing, just like artemisinin was to malaria back then." Wei Dong said with emotion.
Zhou Wen said modestly: "You've been rewarded!"
"It's not an award! This is a fact. Many people will be grateful for your invention in the future." Wei Dong said and followed: "By the way, when will the vaccine be put on the market?"
Zhou Wen: "Uh, it will take about a year, mainly because the technical equipment requirements for mass production are relatively high."
"Ok, I know……"
The two talked all the way.
The bus driver should always take the same route and drive fast and steady.
There are not many high-rise buildings along the way. They are all neatly planned buildings. They are very beautiful and can be imagined. They must be colorful at night.
Exotic style, swing first.
Before six o'clock in the afternoon, they came to Francistown.
They live in a large house in the southern suburbs, surrounded by rows of country houses that resemble Britain.
It can be seen from the houses that this place should be the residence of the rich in Francistown...No, although the gap between the rich and the poor in Botswana is very large, the average person only costs five to six hundred dollars a month, but they seem to live It's all such a mansion of hundreds of square meters.
The house really can't tell the rich and the poor.
Then came arrangements for accommodation, dinner, etc...noisy.
Everyone is very excited.
After dinner, some members proposed to walk nearby, but Wei Dong strictly forbade them.
No one is allowed not only to act without permission.
Someone in the team was dissatisfied with this and issued a low beep.
Wei Dong turned a deaf ear and walked towards his bedroom.
Zhou Wen followed, "Wait a minute...Professor Wei."
Wei Dong seemed to know that Zhou Wen would come, and when Zhou Wen came in, he said, "Close the door."
Upon hearing this, Zhou Wen closed the door behind him.
Wei Dong walked to the window and pulled up the glass... The glass was upward, and there was a dense forest outside, which was blue and barking under the shining of the incandescent lamps around.
The urban agglomerations in the distance are as he expected, very beautiful, and the skyscrapers located in them exude a dazzling brilliance, which is simply indescribable.
Wei Dong took out the hardcover big front door from his pocket, took out one and threw it to Zhou Wen, "Sit down."
When Zhou Wen saw this, he sat down and wanted to light Wei Dong, but when he touched his pocket, he remembered that the lighter was given to Wang Wu before boarding the plane, and he did not buy it after landing. It was borrowed from other people's fire in Gaborone before.
Wei Dong smiled, took out a disposable lighter, and helped Zhou Wen light it up.
"Ahem..." Wei Dong cleared his throat after taking a puff of cigarette, and said, "Why do you think we came to Botswana?"
"Uh..." Zhou Wen froze for a moment, wanting to say that Botswana has the most AIDS patients, so naturally he must come here to help.
But when I think it’s wrong, Botswana’s AIDS patients are indeed number one in the world... But what does this have to do with them?
The country has money, and the actual per capita GDP far exceeds that of China. Everyone lives in a countryhouse. When it comes to aid, Botswana aids them.
Seeing that Zhou Wen was silent, Wei Dong said: "This assistance operation is not planned, and many things are relatively hasty... Let's come here just for a cutscene."
"what do you mean……"
Zhou Wen thought of the performance of the players just now, and suddenly understood something. A large part of the players might have come to gilded.
It is precisely because of this that the top leaders chose Botswana, a politically stable and well-secured country for assistance, just in case.
Even his personal safety is also within the consideration of upper-level leaders.
Thinking of this, Zhou Wen couldn't laugh or cry for a while.
Wei Dong smiled and said: "Yes! I mean what you mean, and you only need to understand what I mean."
"But..." Zhou Wen wanted to say something, but he swallowed it when he reached his mouth and nodded, "I know, I think it's a tourist."
...
Had breakfast the next morning~EbookFREE.me~ The group, led by Wei Dong, went to the Municipal Hospital in Francistown.
On the way, Zhou Wen noticed that, except for Li Feng and Dong Wenying he had brought, the expressions of the others seemed very relaxed. They were talking and laughing along the way, and many people took out their phones to take pictures.
It doesn't look like coming to Africa for aid, it's just like traveling.
Zhou Wen finally understood why he went to Africa to aid such a major task, and the time span was as long as 3 months, and the system only gave a reward of 50,000 experience points.
Come and play around, give 50,000 experience points, it's really a conscience system.
But in any case, it is always a good thing not to venture into those dangerous areas.
