Doctor Player Chapter 435
Raymond hurried to the hospital.
However, there was a cry for mali.
“No, Your Majesty! Dangerous!”
It was Karim, the new young duke of the Chinell family!
He is determined to become a loyal servant of Raymond, who became the emperor.
“Take care of yourself, because you could catch the plague while caring for the sick! Preserve the jade body!”
It was a fair story.
Because Raymond was now the emperor’s body.
It’s a different position than when you were a member of the royal family. You should value your own body the most.
‘Well, I see. What should I do?’
Raymond hesitated, believing that Karim was right, but soon Raymond’s entourage came forward.
“Gong Karim. You don’t know Your Majesty yet. Your Majesty is the kind of person who would throw himself into the fire of hell for the sake of his people.”
It was Christine.
“but….”
Elmoud Mien also came out.
“Don’t worry about the ball! I will protect Your Majesty’s life even if I die instead!”
“Meow! Meow!”
At Elmud’s solemn cry, Karim made an absurd face.
What do you mean dying instead?
It wouldn’t be possible to get sick instead.
‘His Majesty’s aides. Something is a little strange.’
But finally, Linden, who seemed to be the most normal person, sighed and said,
“…Just give up. Your Majesty can’t stop it anyway. bailout… …No, I’m crazy about patients and beef… …Oh no, he is someone who only knows patients.”
can’t dry
Those words pierced Karim’s brain like an echo.
‘Yeah, according to rumors, I’m not the kind of person who can stop you. My job is to assist him so that he can spread his light.’
“Sorry for being rash, Your Majesty!”
“…no.”
Raymond made a puzzled face.
They left him, the person in charge, and played drums and drums among themselves.
‘Would you give me some options too?’
I grumbled like that, but this time, in fact, it was not something to be afraid of.
If it was a plague, it had to be resolved.
‘If I can’t stop the plague, many people will die.’
The ecliptic here was one of the most densely populated cities on the continent.
The problem is that sanitation is not as good as in the big cities of the modern Earth.
Hundreds of thousands of lives could have died if an infectious disease struck, just like the modern cities of the past.
As a healer, I had to prevent that disaster.
‘It’s the same as the emperor. If the plague spreads in the ecliptic, our army will collapse before we can fight properly.’
As the emperor of the symbolic aspect of the zodiac, he cannot abandon the zodiac.
You have to fight using the ecliptic as the last barrier, but an epidemic is rampant in such an ecliptic?
The war was one mana.
‘Could this plague be the work of the guys from the Kingdom of Gears?’
Raymond’s face stiffened as he recalled a possibility.
Considering their ferocity, it was quite possible!
“Let’s go, Linden.”
“Your Majesty!”
And Raymond’s face went pale as he went and looked at the patients at the treatment center.
‘This…It must be the trick of the Gears Kingdom.’
There was reason to be so sure.
Seeing for the first time in my life.
This is because it was a terrible infectious disease that was difficult to appear naturally.
* * *
‘First of all, this is highly likely to be a droplet spread epidemic.’
Raymond, who quickly grasped the patient’s symptoms and transmission patterns, guessed the transmission method of the epidemic.
‘But why do I have these symptoms?’
Raymond made a puzzled face.
Nasal spray.
It is transmitted through droplets of saliva from the patient. It is more contagious than other methods of transmission.
Since the infectious agent enters through the respiratory tract, the respiratory symptoms that are first encountered are the main ones.
So did these patients.
The main symptoms were respiratory symptoms such as coughing and phlegm. Many patients develop pneumonia.
‘But severe cases of pneumonia are rare. Instead, other complications are causing the main problem.’
Raymond swallowed.
‘It’s causing inflammation in other organs than pneumonia.’
The patients started with respiratory symptoms and were complaining of inflammation in various organs.
peritonitis, hepatitis, meningitis, endocarditis, etc.
‘The infectious agent leaves the respiratory tract and binds to various organs, causing problems.’
The most problematic of these was peritonitis.
The largest number of patients complained of complications, leading to perforation of the intestine, leading to a life-threatening emergency.
‘Endocarditis and meningitis are also fatal complications, but fortunately they are relatively rare.’
Peritonitis was reported by 1-20% of patients.
If left unattended, everyone’s life will be endangered.
‘I need to use my hands right now.’
A plan popped into Raymond’s mind.
The principle was simple.
First, radio waves are blocked.
Contact between people was minimized, and all contacts had to be found, isolated, and treated.
‘I’m glad I became the emperor. Otherwise, there would be limits to forcibly restricting people’s movements.’
Thanks to the emperor’s authority, he was able to issue an assembly restriction order.
And the fact that transportation was less developed than the modern Earth was also a strength in coping with epidemics.
The modern Earth can travel around the world in a day, and once an epidemic spreads, it often spreads around the world in an instant.
However, since Leifentina was moved by horse and carriage at best, it was easy to block the spread of the contagious disease.
‘And I have to treat the patient.’
Like that thought, the second thing to do is to treat the infected patient.
‘It’s difficult to treat fundamentally because we don’t know exactly what type of infectious disease it is.’
It’s probably a virus, but exactly what kind of virus it was was unknown at this time.
It could have been a virus recreated by the Kingdom of Gears through biomagics.
‘Because the DNA structure of a virus is simpler than that of real life, so it is not difficult to manipulate it unexpectedly. It would have been possible to create a new type of virus by combining knowledge of medicine and biomagics.’
So it is impossible to find a cure for the virus right away.
Treatment should be tailored to the patient’s symptoms.
Isolation and conservative treatment for patients with mild symptoms complaining only of a cold and mild pneumonia.
And patients with complications are tailored to the complications.
‘Peritonitis is fatal if left untreated, but fortunately, it is not a complication that is difficult to treat.’
It could be cured with a simple surgery.
‘Let’s start right away.’
While trying to move with such a mind, Raymond hesitated for a moment.
realizing a serious problem.
‘…I don’t have enough hands.’
Close to 50 patients have already been confirmed to have spread.
Among them, more than 10 patients complained of peritonitis.
It was simple for Raymond to operate on each one, but it was impossible to operate on all patients because they had one body.
‘There are only 50 confirmed patients, so if you count the undiscovered patients, the number of patients must already be in the hundreds. We have to find and treat those patients as well.’
And that wasn’t all.
‘Classifying contacts and blocking radio waves should be done by healers with medical knowledge, but I don’t have hands.’
There were at most 10 healers who came to the ecliptic with Raymond.
There was no way it would have been possible to do such a thing with only 10 people.
‘What about this? If I’m a little late, I’ll be out of control.’
There was a golden time for epidemic prevention and control.
If you miss the time, then it is impossible to block radio waves.
A great disaster ensues.
‘How to?’
But the heartbreaking news came.
“Your Majesty is in trouble! The Kingdom of Gears has made a statement about the plague spreading across the ecliptic!”
The contents of the statement were as follows.
< The plague that spread across the ecliptic is heaven's punishment for being angry at the evil deeds of the saint of poverty! >
< If you want to appease the wrath of heaven, offer the head of the saint of poverty right away! >
‘These damn bastards.’
Raymond gritted his teeth.
It was an agitation operation to shake the public sentiment of the emperor!
The problem is that it is very threatening.
No one will be shaken right now, but if the epidemic fails to subside and the number of victims goes out of control, public sentiment will be shaken.
‘We have to deal with this epidemic somehow. But there is a way.’
Raymond was in trouble.
No matter how good he was, there was a limit to what he could do alone.
This is out of bounds.
‘Because Hanson isn’t there.’
Hanson.
Raymond’s most trusted disciple.
Of course, Raymond has equal trust in his three apprentices, Christine Hanson and Linden.
However, the direction of trust was slightly different.
Christine believes in Christine’s individual skills.
Because her medical skills were the most outstanding among the students.
Linden assists Raymond the best. Linden was the most comfortable to be with.
On the other hand, Hanson had excellent abilities as a ‘leader’ leading the healers.
This was the most helpful in this situation.
However, after the grand banquet, he had to go back to the Houston kingdom for work.
‘No, in a situation like this, Hanson alone won’t help. I don’t have enough heads.’
head count.
What is needed now is not the elite few.
I needed a lot of normal healers to move like soldiers.
‘Are you going to mobilize even healers from the Tower of Healing?’
Since he became the emperor, he could ask for help from the Tower of Healing in an emergency.
However, it didn’t seem to be of much help except for relieving the patient’s condition with the heal ability.
A knowledge of basic medical epidemiology was required to help contain the epidemic.
‘How could such healers suddenly appear from the sky… ….’
But Raymond had an idea.
‘there is! Such healers!’
Raymond clenched his fists tightly.
‘Healer corps fostered by Hanson!’
The Houston kingdom was training a large number of healers as the next-generation national food.
Last time Raymond checked, the number was over 1000!
When they come, we will be able to stop this epidemic.
‘But it’s taking too long.’
The Houston kingdom and the ecliptic were far apart.
The straight line distance itself is not far.
A little further across the northern border of the kingdom of Houston was the ecliptic.
However, in the middle was a rugged mountain range that was difficult for people to come and go.
Therefore, to come by land, you had to circle around the Katal Kingdom located in the east, and no matter how fast you ran, it would take at least 15 days.
‘It will take at least a month for more than a thousand people to march. It’s too late then.’
Raymond thought darkly.
No matter how much I struggled, there was no way.
‘Ahhh. what to do Why are you always giving me this ordeal? Should I just run away? Asylum to the Free Cities Association? no. Then what about the tens of millions of penas I owe?’
It was when Raymond came back to being a jerk and was tearing his hair out.
Suddenly, an unexpected call came.
“I got a call from His Majesty Sir Hanson!”
“…What’s going on?”
Raymond asked helplessly.
Perhaps he was calling to help.
The will is appreciated, but unfortunately Hanson won’t be able to help him because of the physical distance we talked about earlier.
But Christine said something unexpected.
