At 4 pm, the Ministry of Health will officially release the registration information of organizing a medical team to Harbin to every veteran. Registration will start early tomorrow morning and you can think carefully today for a night.

At 5 o'clock, the epidemic situation in the Northeast was reported today. Today, 27 patients with plague were found, 34 suspected patients, 50 patients with confirmed symptoms and 53 suspected patients. In addition to Manzhouli, Harbin, Qiqihar, and Aihui, two counties in Nenjiang and Mudanjiang were added, which also indicated that the plague had spread from Heilongjiang Province to Jilin Province.

In addition, today, three deaths occurred in Harbin. Two of them were confirmed cases yesterday, and one death was found to have died at home, and the disease occurred at least for more than 3 days. Among his family, two confirmed cases were also found, which were obviously infected by this person. The incubation period of the plague is not long, usually 3-4 days, and rarely reach 7 or 8 days. Therefore, this person is at least 7 days old, and his whereabouts cannot be found. I don’t know how many people it will be transmitted to.

Although the major cities that the East China government has worked hard to build a modern medical system, due to the concept, most people in this era do not go to the hospital for treatment when they get sick. They still ask doctors to come to the hospital for treatment when their family is in good condition, while families without conditions endure it at home. Although under the governance of the East China government, the income of urban residents has increased greatly and there will be some extra money, the Chinese people's frugal habits and general headaches and fevers do not ask doctors to get medicine. They would rather find some folk remedies or ask witches to exorcise the demons.

Although the East China government is not allowed to deceive people, and professional witches are basically gone, there are still some semi-professional or amateur witches. They have their own legitimate professions, doing small business, and some even work in factories. However, they also do some exorcisms and ask gods to cure diseases in private. Their services are mainly acquaintances, and the price is not high. The reputation is passed down by oral transmission. There is a considerable market among the people, and it is impossible to completely ban them.

So Zhou Ping immediately ordered the dead patient's home and surrounding areas to be completely blocked, and his family and neighbors were isolated and inspected. At the same time, he issued a document to the Northeast provinces again. While paying attention to the shelter or suspected illness, he should also pay attention to removing patients who did not report to the hospital but died at home.

After dealing with these things, Zhou Ping came home from get off work. When she got home, the supper had been prepared. Qin Zheng, Luo Yue, Zhou Weiying and the children sat around the table, waiting for her to come back to have dinner.

Zhou Ping smiled and said, "What are you waiting for me? Eat yourself first, don't starve the children."

Luo Yue said: "It doesn't matter if you ask them to wait for a while, you won't be hungry."

Zhou Ping changed her clothes, washed her hands, sat down in front of the table, and said, "Let's have dinner, let's have dinner."

The family started to move, and Zhou Ping said again: "I'm probably very busy during this period. I may come back very late every day, and I may not come back for dinner, so don't wait for me for dinner. You can have it yourself when the time comes."

Qin Zheng also nodded and said, "It is true that the current situation is not optimistic! We are still discussing how many veterans will sign up to Harbin."

Zhou Ping said: "I have thought about this too. If no one really signs up, then I will lead the team to Harbin."

Qin Zheng shook his head and said, "If you are an old man like you, this is not the result we hope to see! We hope to see the elders of the Mesozoic era still have enterprising spirit, so if you are the only one who leads the team to Harbin in the end, then we will have no hope."

Zhou Ping said: "I don't care about so many political considerations for you. I am a doctor. It is my job to save and treat patients. So if no one goes, then I will go, it's that simple."

At this time, Zhou Weiying said, "Dad, mom, look at what you said, it seems that no one really goes, I'll go."

Zhou Ping was stunned and said, "Xiaoying, you are going to Harbin!"

Zhou Weiying nodded and said, "I am the director of the People's Army General Hospital, and I am studying breathing and infectious diseases. I am not very old. Just like what my father said about the Middle Ages. Who will not go to at this time?"

Zhou Ping looked at Luo Yue and said, "Have you discussed it with Xiao Luo!"

Luo Yue said: "She told me about this when she came back. Since she had made a decision, then I respect her decision."

At this time, Qin Zheng said: "Okay, Xiaoying is not a child anymore. You can decide what you want to do. We should all respect it. However, when you come to Harbin, you should be more careful and pay attention to safety."

Zhou Weiying said: "Don't worry, I will."

In fact, Zhou Weiying was not old, only 31 years old. When she came to this era, she was only 20 years old and was just a nurse. However, Qin Zheng and Zhou Ping had arranged the road for her at that time. At that time, Zhou Weiying participated in the evacuation mission to increase her qualifications. After the evacuation mission was over, she entered university to further her studies and could formally practice medicine after graduation. Of course, Zhou Weiying chose to study for graduate school or study abroad.

After this era, it is definitely impossible to go to college to further study. Moreover, due to the lack of medical staff, all the nurses who traveled through time were upgraded to doctors, who practiced and studied in depth. After all, among the veterans, there were many experienced doctors, and there were also a large number of teaching videos, which were enough for all nurses to study. At the same time, a large number of foreign medical works were purchased. Zhou Weiying's major was respiratory and infectious diseases. This is because in this era, due to poor hygiene conditions and hygiene habits, the most common diseases were various infectious diseases, such as influenza, plague, malaria, smallpox, schistosomiasis, etc., and medical staff in this area were urgently needed.

In recent years, Zhou Weiying has been serious about completing her job, while also working hard to learn new knowledge. At the same time, she has also learned a large number of foreign medical works. With the guidance of Qin Zheng and Zhou Ping, Zhou Weiying has also developed quite well in the medical field. She has been the director of the People's Army General Hospital. This hospital is the longest-established hospital with the richest medical resources in the East China Government, and is also the designated hospital for the veterans of Qingdao. And just last year, Zhou Weiying was officially designated as a doctorate in medicine by Qingdao Medical University and hired as a professor. She has to teach classes twice a week at the school. She is the backbone of the veterans and middle-aged medical staff.

So the next day, as soon as Zhou Weiying went to work, she signed up for the Ministry of Health and was willing to participate in the medical team and lead the team to Harbin. Moreover, the registration situation was more optimistic than the Executive Yuan expected. On this day, there were a total of 9 veterans, three more than the planned team led by the team. There were actually two non-Chinese veterans. On the second day, six veterans signed up, which made the Executive Yuan feel very pleased, and at least there were quite a few veterans with enterprising spirit.

However, the epidemic on the third day was even more severe. A total of 103 patients were found on this day, and more than 100 patients were found in a single day for the first time. Of course, 36 of them were from confirmed cases in suspected cases. 51 suspected patients were found; 12 died, which was also the death toll exceeded the single digits. Five of them died at home, and two of them died at home, but were carried out by their families at night and threw them by the river. The families of the two deceased were currently being tracked down. The areas where the epidemic occurred have expanded to 10. In addition to Harbin, there are also Manzhouli and Qiqihar.

In addition, starting today, the number of people quarantined and the number of closed areas has been reported. The number of people quarantined and observed is now 534, and the closed areas are 6. The area with the worst epidemic is still Harbin.

A total of 153 patients with confirmed symptoms, 68 suspected patients, and 15 deaths.

The Ministry of Health also realized that the epidemic in the Northeast is getting worse and cannot be delayed anymore, so it decided to set up a medical team to Harbin immediately. Although there are more veterans who have registered than planned, this time, only 6 veterans will be sent to lead the team according to the original plan. Other veterans who have registered are preparing to participate in the second and third batches of medical teams, because judging from the current situation, it is definitely impossible to send only one medical team to the Northeast.

Finally, according to the registration order, the veterans participating in the medical team were: Zhou Weiying, Tang Youting, Zhang Yuan, Zhao Fanxue, Liu Xueming, and Italian veteran Parotini, as well as 12 naturalized medical staff. At the same time, the Ministry of Health also made a decision to have Zhou Weiying as the team leader and Liu Xueming as the deputy team leader, who is fully responsible for the management of the medical team and epidemic prevention and control.

This arrangement is because among these six veterans, Zhou Weiying has the highest administrative level and position, and she is a doctor in respiratory infectious diseases, so it is natural to lead her team.

There is another factor that cannot be said, but everyone is tacitly aware of. Due to the different sites of the epidemic prevention, the medical team has a higher chance of conflict with the local government. After all, the medical team only considers the most effective and fastest means, and controls it at all costs and extinguishes the epidemic. Local governments need to consider factors such as economy, finance, local people's conditions, manpower and material resources.

After all, the medical team is just professional and technical personnel, so it is necessary to cooperate fully by the local government to achieve success. The leader of the medical team must be a person of weight. Although Zhou Weiying is not old, her administrative level is not low. Her parents are one of the five giants, one is the Minister of Health, and her husband is the commander of the Marine Corps and the rank of lieutenant general. This long background, no matter which local officials dare not underestimate her, as the leader of the group, naturally, the medical team can carry out their work better without having to coordinate in everything.
