Chapter 222: How to vaccinate against cowpox!

After reading, Qin Chi, who was also standing in the morning class, was secretly shocked! !

He was confused when he heard it. Isn't this smallpox? !

He was well aware of the seriousness of smallpox, an ancient disease that had left a mark in history books.

Now, it is really surprising that this evil disease is raging on the way back from the Great Qin soldiers!

Zu Long took the emergency military report from Li Si and read the description of the smallpox epidemic with a focused gaze.

His face gradually became serious, and a look of shock flashed in his eyes.

There was silence for a moment in the court hall.

Some officials looked at each other and whispered, seeming to confirm the authenticity of the news.

Some frowned, thinking deeply about how to deal with this sudden disaster.

Some officials had a look of panic on their faces, worried that the disease would quickly spread throughout the Qin Dynasty and endanger the lives of countless people.

The ministers are helpless!

"Your Majesty, this is a smallpox epidemic!"

At this moment, Qin Chi took a deep breath, stood up from the court class, and said in a deep voice, "This disease spreads very quickly and is dangerous. If it is not controlled in time, it may cause a catastrophe!!"

Above the court, Qin Chi's words were like a huge stone thrown into the calm lake, causing ripples! !

Zulong's eyes were focused, and he looked straight at Qin Chi with a majestic appearance!

Qin Chi was seen standing above the court, his voice steady and powerful, describing the horror of smallpox.

He said: "Smallpox is an ancient evil disease that once ravaged the Central Plains. It is recorded in history books and can be traced!"

"This epidemic has a sudden onset, with high fever that does not go away, red rashes all over the place, and the patient is in unbearable pain."

"And this disease spreads very quickly. Once it breaks out, it will be like a prairie fire and difficult to extinguish."

"It is recorded in the history books of later generations that wherever smallpox was prevalent, nine out of ten houses were empty, and the people were displaced and miserable!"

He paused, glanced at everyone, and continued: "Now, this evil disease has come to our country. The horror of smallpox cannot be described in words. We must take immediate action and go all out to curb the spread of the epidemic!"

Above the court, there was silence!

Everyone was deeply shocked by Qin Chi's words, with looks of fear and worry on their faces!

They seemed to have seen the horrific scenes of smallpox raging and felt the huge threat posed by the epidemic.

An old minister said in a trembling voice: "Your Majesty, if it is as Lord Tingwei said, then the smallpox epidemic is no small matter!"

"We must take measures as soon as possible to protect the safety of the people!"

Everyone was confused and uneasy, looking at each other with panic in their hearts. It was like dark clouds pressing over their heads, and the atmosphere suddenly became solemn.

Qin Chi took a deep breath, knowing that he must stabilize people's hearts at this moment to prevent panic from spreading.

He said solemnly: "Gentlemen, smallpox is certainly scary, but it is not an incurable disease. We must take immediate action to block the news to prevent unnecessary panic!"

His eyes were firm, scanning the faces of every official, and continued: "According to previous experience in treating plagues, we must strictly implement protective measures and isolate patients to avoid further spread of the epidemic. At the same time, the Tai Hospital must immediately start research and treatment. method to provide strong support to frontline soldiers.”

As soon as Qin Chi finished speaking, Xia Wuji and other imperial doctors stepped forward one after another, with firm expressions and piercing eyes. Xia Wuji took a step forward, bowed his hands and saluted, with a sonorous and powerful voice: "Your Majesty, I am willing to go to the front line and try the new method for the sake of the people of the world! Although the smallpox epidemic is fierce, I am confident that with the help of the cowpox cultivation method, we will be able to Contain this epidemic and bring peace to our people in Great Qin."

All the imperial doctors also echoed in unison, with a firm voice: "I would like to go with Imperial Physician Xia to fight the smallpox epidemic together. Please give me your permission!"

Their faces were full of determination and responsibility, as if they had seen the dawn of victory.

Qin Chi smiled slightly, nodded and said: "With the kindness and benevolence of Imperial Doctor Xia, this trip will be safe. Don't worry, I have a method here called the 'Vaccinium Pox Planting Method', which may be able to help you!"

He stood in the court hall, facing many imperial doctors and courtiers, took a deep breath, and began to explain in detail the principles and methods of cowpox cultivation.

"Everyone," his voice was steady and powerful, "the smallpox epidemic is certainly terrible, but it is not an incurable disease. The cowpox cultivation method I talked about today may bring a glimmer of hope to the people of our country in Great Qin."

He paused and continued: "The so-called cowpox inoculation method is to inoculate the human body with cowpox sores to make the human body develop resistance to smallpox. This method originated from overseas and has been proven effective after many tests. , as long as we master this method, the smallpox epidemic will no longer be a nightmare for the people of our Great Qin."

The imperial doctors listened with great interest, and a glimmer of hope flashed in their eyes.

Tingwei's words seemed to point out a way for them to defeat smallpox and let them see the dawn of victory.

"Of course," Qin Chi added, "this method needs to be implemented with extreme caution. We must send experienced and skilled doctors to the epidemic area to conduct tests to ensure that it is foolproof."

His words revealed determination and confidence, as if he had seen the dawn of victory.

Under the leadership of Qin Chi, the officials in the court gradually regained their calm and confidence.

Seeing this, Qin Chi's confidence doubled. He knew that although this battle with smallpox was difficult, it was not without a chance of winning.

Xia Wuqi and other imperial doctors shouldered the heavy responsibility and traveled through the starry night, finally arriving at the land of Baiyue.

Without taking any time to rest, they immediately began experimenting with methods of cultivating cowpox.

On the vast grounds of the military camp, Xia Wuqie, dressed in a plain medical uniform, faced a group of soldiers and explained the secrets of cowpox cultivation in a loud and clear voice.

He said: "My fellow soldiers, the smallpox epidemic is a serious concern for us! But today, we are fortunate to have a method of prevention and treatment, called 'Vaccinium Pox Planting'! This method is taken from cow pox and planted in the human body. People develop immunity to smallpox and thus avoid its harm.”

When the soldiers heard this, they all looked surprised. They whispered to each other and talked a lot.

A general who had experienced many battles stepped forward and asked excitedly: "Mr. Xia, are you serious about this? Can this method of growing cowpox really prevent and cure the smallpox epidemic?"

Xia Wuji nodded and affirmed: "It is absolutely true. This method was recommended by Master Tingwei, saying that it has been successful overseas. We have also tested it many times and confirmed that it is effective!"

"I came to the military camp today because I hope to test this method with all the soldiers and fight the smallpox epidemic together!!"

When the soldiers heard this, they all rejoiced and shouted in unison: "I am willing to follow Imperial Doctor Xia to test new methods and fight the smallpox epidemic together!"

Their voices were loud and full of determination and confidence.

Xia Wuji looked at the group of brave and fearless soldiers in front of him, and a warm current surged in his heart.

He nodded with a smile and said loudly: "Okay! In that case, we will start the experiment immediately. May God bless the Qin Dynasty, and may God bless our soldiers!"

Following Xia Wuji's order, the soldiers lined up in an orderly manner to wait for vaccination.
