Chapter 222: Mobile visit

Since getting off the plane yesterday, Zhou Wen’s biggest feeling is that Botswana’s population is really small.
Francistown, the second largest city, has sparse pedestrians on the road, just like those rural towns in Europe and America in TV movies.
However, this phenomenon changed after arriving at the hospital.
The city hospital in Francistown is more busy than the domestic top three hospitals. As soon as they arrived at the gate of the hospital, ambulances with alarms came in and out one by one.
At the entrance of a building similar to an outpatient department, there is an endless stream of patients coming for consultation.
It seems that the entire Francistown people have gathered here.
"Wait in the car, don't get off yet..." Wei Dong instructed everyone, and then got off the car with Zhou Wen and two WHO staff.
They came to the administrative department of the hospital and explained the situation to the hospital supervisor.
The supervisor showed...ennnn, not too enthusiastic about their arrival.
The reason is also very simple. Botswana already has a complete social medical security system, and more than 20 of them have no effect on alleviating the local medical pressure, and even to some extent, it has increased. The administrative workload of the hospital is reduced.
and so……
Of course, they were sent by the United Nations World Health Organization, and the supervisor did not dare to neglect them too much.
Send someone to arrange work for them.
The person in charge, Caspar Tobias, led everyone across the long boulevard to the inpatient department.
When Zhou Wen saw the inpatient department of Francistown Municipal Hospital, he was shocked.
What did he see?
A large complex of buildings. The area is very large. It is larger than the entire Jiangzhou First People's Hospital. It is planted with lush trees and various flowers and plants, and it looks like birds and flowers.
Because the buildings in Botswana generally do not exceed three floors, and this complex is the same, the design of the two-story building with high ceilings, with a little lush trees, exceeds the buildings.
Therefore, this complex of buildings looks like...ennn, a domestic cemetery.
"This is... the inpatient department?"
"Yes! Many critically ill HIV patients have been admitted here."
Hearing this, Zhou Wen suddenly remembered that Botswana has the world’s largest number of HIV infections, and nearly half of Francistown’s people are infected with AIDS and other opportunistic diseases. Tens of thousands.
And Francistown has a total population of only 200,000. It is not as large as a major domestic town, and there are no first, second, third, forty and fifth hospitals, as well as various street clinics and black clinics. This is Francistown. In a hospital, all patients are here.
Therefore, it is only natural to construct such a large inpatient department.
Under the leadership of Tobias, they came to the inpatient department.
The rooms here are all four people, the environment is also very good, all kinds of equipment, including air conditioning and TV are not lacking...
In addition, the mental condition of the patients here is different from those in China who are dying and dying after getting AIDS. The AIDS patients here are talking and laughing, and there are people fighting and dancing in the corridor... It's like having a small cold.
What he did.
In this regard, apart from Zhou Wen's surprise, Wei Dong and the people in the World Health Organization are quite calm and calm.
Tobias then arranged work for aid workers.
The main thing is to do some testing work, as well as safety knowledge propaganda, etc... The people in Botswana don't talk about it, and they don't like wearing condoms. It is probably troublesome.
Compared to direct contact with those critically AIDS patients, this is relatively safe.
Just when Zhou Wen thought that three months would pass in the hospital, a system alert sounded in his ear.
Open the task panel and take a look.
【Task: Medical assistance (2)
Explanation: Go out, contact more people, learn more things, and you will have more gains.
Requirements: mobile inspection (not less than 100 hours)
reward:? ? ? ? 】
Zhou Wen immediately closed the task panel and said, "Hello Mr. Tobias, I want to take people to the countryside for mobile inspections. Can you lend me a inspection car?"
Tobias shook his head repeatedly, "nonono~ this won't work. Just stay here, you don't need to do mobile clinics."
Wei Dong also whispered when he heard the words, "Didn't we make the decision last night? If you want to travel, you can go anytime after arrangements are made here. As for the visit, let's forget it!"
Zhou Wen also whispered: "Well...Wei group, the cryptococcosis vaccine I am researching needs some human tests, but if there are some things in China...you know."
Seriously, Wei Dong didn't understand.
Virus testing can also be done in China. There are various types of specimens for testing at the Handa P4 Virus Institute. There is no need to do weird human testing in Botswana.
However, the core data of the cryptococcosis vaccine has not been disclosed so far. It may or may require some tests that I do not understand.
After thinking about it, Wei Dong said, "Alright..."
Wei Dong immediately explained the situation with two WHO staff members. Of course, the WHO people also hope that they will go to the countryside for treatment.
Since they took the initiative, they were naturally happy to help.
Persuaded by WHO staff, Tobias finally agreed.
In addition, in order to ensure their personal safety... Botswana’s domestic security is very good, because almost the whole country believes in religion, everyone is kind, simple, open and...lazy.
This is what Wei Dong told Zhou Wen.
But think about it, the salary is high, the welfare is good, the government also divides the big villa, every day is ten to four work, one word after get off work: engage.
Such a life, who still commits crimes?
However, the gangsters in South Africa and Zimba next door often come to commit crimes, and they are equipped with two security guards just in case. The kind with a gun.
Then Zhou Wen went to the entourage and picked someone to go with him for the rounds.
Everyone thought they were going to visit the mountains and water, and they were scrambling to go.
Zhou Wen picked three people, Li Feng, Dong Wenying, and Lu Weizhi.
Then Wei Dong stuffed him with another person, Yu Xiaohua.
At 9:30 in the morning, with a total of 8 security guides, they set off in a fully equipped American patrol vehicle.
"Pay attention to safety, go early and return early, and don't spend the night outside."
"Know! Don't worry..."
The group drove along the main road in Francistown to the northwest...This place is close to the border of Bojin, and it is easy to encounter Zimba bandits in the east.
Today the weather is very good, the temperature is suitable, the wind is sunny, and the scenery along the way is endless.
Along the way, I saw scattered houses, from ordinary bungalows to European-style country villas, neatly arranged, surrounded by flowers and trees in front of the house, and cars.
It is not a concept at all with the impression that Africans wear animal skins, live in thatched huts, and chase lions and tigers with sharpened wooden spears in their hands.
They stopped in front of one of the houses.
The hostess and children in the house came out after hearing the movement.
The "President Next Door" and the dog also ran over.
Including the dog, their skin is dark black, black and purple, and they are the kind that will never be found when they walk in front of you at night without speaking.
After learning their origin and purpose, the hostess told them frankly that she was AIDS and her two daughters were HIV carriers.
And the next door Pharaoh who came to join in the fun is also a HIV carrier.
According to "Pharaoh", his HIV was transmitted to him by this woman named Evelina. From a drink.
Of course, the old Wang didn't hate her at all, and even felt proud of having the same virus as Evelina. This was a testimony of their love... a strange idea.
Then, as I continued to communicate, I learned something even more stunned.
Evelina and the husband and wife of Lao Wang next door turned out to be HIV carriers and lovers... The two families have been living together amicably for seven or eight years.
"..."
This is not what is common in Europe and America... It's really open to play.
Zhou Wen and the others couldn't bear it, and they didn't ask who passed it to whom in the first place.
Li Feng and Lu Weizhi collected blood. Two girls, Dong Wenying and Yu Xiaohua, distributed drugs to them, and then explained their physiological safety knowledge.
After working for more than an hour, everyone continued on the road.
Before noon, they arrived at a town called "Sebine" 50 kilometers northwest.
According to official records, the population here is about 12,000, but the medical conditions here are much worse than those in Francistown.
In a residential area in the north of the city, they saw a group of people holding a funeral.
After learning, the deceased died of cryptococcal meningitis caused by AIDS.
After the funeral, Zhou Wen and the others conducted publicity and education on sexual hygiene.
But the crowd of onlookers lacked interest in this, and the condoms they got were directly given to the children. The children happily took the condoms and blew bubbles... and soon everyone took a few large bubbles made of condoms.
Despite helplessness, Zhou Wen and the others continued to work.
And to test some people who are willing to take blood tests, and distribute free drugs to those who are diagnosed.
As Zhou Wen and the others were talking, a Prado slowly passed by, and soon the car fell back, the co-pilot's window was lowered, and there were two young men and a woman inside.
The young man sitting in the co-pilot shouted in Chinese: "Hey~EbookFREE.me~Are you Chinese?"
Zhou Wen nodded and said, "Yes!"
The young Prado looked at the condom balloon in the child's hand and smiled: "Don't waste your thoughts, tell you, it's useless."
Zhou Wen: "It may be useless to promote it, but it is certainly useless if it is not promoted."
The young Prado lighted a cigarette and said with a smile: "When I came to Botswana in 2005, the HIV infection rate was 30%.
Fourteen years have passed. Every year, many international medical teams come to promote health knowledge. As a result, the infection rate has not dropped but increased, and now exceeds 40%.
I think it won’t be long before the infection rate will exceed 50%. "
Zhou Wen: "..."
