"Easier said than done..." The medical soldiers also looked embarrassed.

"Isn't this a virus? We can definitely detect who is currently infected and who is not infected. As long as we separate the two and prevent them from spreading further, won't we be able to control it better?" Lao Yang didn't understand the hesitation of the medical soldier and was puzzled.

asked.

"There are several aspects to the examination of prions. The first is the cerebrospinal fluid examination. The routine and biochemistry of cerebrospinal fluid are basically normal, but a specific protein can be found. Not to mention whether there are conditions for cerebrospinal fluid examination here, even if the cerebrospinal fluid examination results come out

Yes, the mutated protein was detected, and this positive result will also appear in non-prion patients."

"Then there is no other way?"

"There is also an electroencephalogram test. A specific brain wave pattern will appear in Creutzfeldt-Jakob disease caused by prions, but if it is caused by other diseases, such as kuru disease, fatal familial insomnia, Gus

Terman syndrome, etc., it is a bit difficult. Finally, imaging examination is required. A cranial MRI can find local lesions with enhanced signal, which has identification significance."

"Xi Yuan, are there any of the medical equipment they are talking about here?" Lao Yang asked me.

I thought hard, but the key is that I don't even know what equipment the medic is talking about...

"Electroencephalography equipment and imaging examination equipment are available, we have seen them before." Wen Na said.

By the way, Wen Na did perform an endoscope on me before to remove the magnetic material that the people from the shelter put into my body. It should be those devices.

"However," the medical soldier still had concerns, "these two methods can only have a certain identification significance and cannot be used as the final test results. There are only two gold standards for diagnosing prions."

"Which two? Time is urgent, don't be pretentious!" Lao Yang was also impatient and urged impatiently.

"Autopsy or biopsy of brain tissue for observation."

"Craniotomy?!" Lao Yang's tone suddenly became louder.

Another medical soldier also said, "Only these two methods can detect vacuoles, neuron loss, keratinocyte proliferation, etc. By staining and checking the presence of prpsc in the brain tissue, you can truly diagnose whether you are infected with prions."

"Let me think about it... You guys go ahead and do your work... By the way! No one is allowed to tell anyone about this virus, do you hear me?"

Everyone nodded. I also know the serious relationship between this. There are so many people in this desert camp. Once the panic spreads, even if the virus does not spread, things will be out of control...

"Xiao Liu, please stay for a moment. I have something else to ask you. Xiyuan, don't leave either. We are just three cobblers who can stand up to Zhuge Liang and see if we can come up with a solution."

I nodded, Wen Na, Xiwu and Chaoyang also stayed with me, and everyone else went about their business.

"Xiao Liu, what you just said, biopsy of brain tissue, do you think this is feasible?" "Hey... Let's not talk about why we should find a reason to do this examination to appease everyone. It's just an imaging examination. Our

We don’t even have enough manpower.”

"Just tell me that you can't do this brain tissue section, and don't think about anything else."

"Difficult to do."

“Can it be done even if it’s difficult?”

"Well..." Xiao Liu was still evasive. The iron door was opened, and a medical soldier who was testing the samples of the corpse just ran out.

"Dr. Lin fainted!"

"What happened..." Lao Yang and the medical soldier he called Xiao Liu ran in immediately.

Sure enough, there was a medical soldier wearing an isolation suit lying on the ground, his legs still shaking.

"Just now we were observing the samples, and then Dr. Lin's hands seemed to have cramps, and then he was shaking all over, and he fell to the ground."

"Xiao Lin? Xiao Lin?"

Lao Yang gently patted the fainted medical soldier, and he gradually woke up. His mouth opened and closed, but no words came out.

"Hel him up first." Xiao Liu said.

Then, Lao Yang and Xiao Liu tried to help Dr. Lin up, who had just woken up. They saw that Dr. Lin had just stood up, and Lao Yang's hand had not been released yet. Dr. Lin's legs were as if they were borrowed, completely untouched.

He controlled it and branched in two directions...

"Let him lie down first!"

Wen Na found a piece of plastic film from the side and threw it on the ground, and then Lao Yang and the others put Dr. Lin on it.

"It's impossible..." Xiao Liu muttered to himself.

"What's impossible?" Lao Yang asked.

"Even if you are infected with prions and cause disease, there is still an incubation period and an onset period. Dr. Lin has always been healthy before, and..." Xiao Liu looked at Dr. Lin's palms. "He has no blood transmission. How could this be possible?"

Are you going to have such symptoms soon? Unless... this virus has synthesized a new virus with other highly contagious viruses, and it can be spread by just contact!"

"What?!"

Everyone present had their eyes widened in disbelief.

It was previously said that as long as one has not experienced cannibalism, one will not be infected, but now it is said that anyone with contact may be infected, isn't that...

"Where are the medical equipment you mentioned before? Take me there now. I need to perform a biopsy on Dr. Lin immediately!"

"Follow me." Wen Na led me in front, and a few of us worked together to carry Dr. Lin and followed Wen Na to the room filled with plastic films, where ECG monitoring equipment and other instruments were all available.

It's perfect for use as an operating room right now.

Xiao Liu looked at the surrounding environment and said, "It's too dark..."

Lao Yang immediately used the intercom to call people outside to bring in the searchlight, "You put the light downstairs and I'll get it myself."

After a while, Lao Yang came in huffing and puffing with something the size of a TV in his arms. His head and face were covered with sweat. When the switch was turned on, the whole room was instantly illuminated like daylight.

I saw Xiao Liu's hands shaking slightly, "I haven't had this kind of surgery for a long time... I'm a little nervous..."

Big beads of sweat flowed down his cheeks...

"You can do it!" Lao Yang encouraged him, and then we all retreated behind the film and waited quietly.

Time passed by, and those of us waiting outside didn't dare to say a word. During this period, Lao Yang's intercom rang, as if there was something that needed him to deal with, and he went out.

"Boom!" A loud noise came from inside, followed by the sound of the collision of metal utensils.

We lifted the film and found that the wound on Dr. Lin's scalp on the operating table had not yet been sutured... The two surgeons fell to the ground...

"What the hell is going on..." Xiwu looked at the situation in front of her and didn't know for a moment whether to deal with Dr. Lin's wounds first or to help the two people on the ground first...

"You guys lift them aside first, and I'll sew them up." Wen Na calmly distributed the tasks.

The brain tissue slices nearby have been taken out and placed on a glass dish. Dr. Lin's heart rate is also very stable. So what is the condition of these two people?

"It suddenly occurred to me that there is a person who is very good at making fuss about people's heads..." Wen Na said while suturing the wound.

"Who?" I just asked, and soon realized who Wen Na was talking about.

"Will he help us?"

"I don't know...but now these medical soldiers are all fainting one after another. Is there any other way we can do?"

"You mean, release that shadow and ask him to help us?!" Yugiri quickly realized who we were talking about.

"I think you two are crazy. We can't control that thing when it is released. Besides, how can you be sure that he will listen to us and help us?"

"But we really have no choice... If what Dr. Xiao Liu said comes true, and this virus has mutated and the disease is extremely rapid, we are very likely to have been infected by now, and everyone in this yard will be infected."

Everyone may be infected... He can drive steel nails into the heads of so many puppets and still make these people immortal. His ability is definitely above all of us. As for whether he will listen to us.

..I’ll figure this out!”

"I'm going to find Lao Yang now!" After saying that, I was about to get up.

"Why are you looking for me?" Lao Yang pushed open the door and entered. It seemed that he had finished handling the matters outside.

"Dr. Xiao Liu and the others also fainted..." Wen Na was putting her hand on Dr. Xiao Liu's wrist and counting his pulse.

"Ah?! Xiao Liu is the director of the medical department. If even he is tricked..." Lao Yang clenched his fists, and there was confusion in his eyes...
