Liu Xuzhi looked at Boss Zheng with a bitter face. Although surgery was work, for Liu Xuzhi, it was not only work but also a means to maintain his life.
Living in the Imperial Capital and raising a family, which one of them didn't need money?
Recuperation? That was impossible.
If he did not work for a day, he would not have any income.
For Liu Xuzhi, the best medicine was the stacks of cash that Lin Jiaojiao took out after the surgery every day.
There was nothing in the world that smelled better than the smell of cash.
Now that he was not allowed to perform the surgery … Boss Zheng … In an instant, Liu Xuzhi felt that his heart attack was about to flare up again.
Liu Xuzhi's face turned pale as he felt a wave of pain in his heart under his sternum.
"Boss Zheng, is Old Liu alright?" Lin Jiaojiao took a closer look at Liu Xuzhi's fingers. There was not even a wound. It was just red and swollen. In addition, Liu Xuzhi had a low fever.
It should be a cold. Boss Zheng must be making a big fuss over a minor issue, Lin Jiaojiao thought to herself.
"It doesn't look like a flesh-eating fungus infection." Su Yun picked up Liu Xuzhi's right hand and looked at it against the light in the operating room, as if he was looking at the watermark in the middle of the RMB.
Seeing Su Yun's frivolous look, Zheng Ren did not know whether to laugh or cry.
"The symptoms can match. It's good to be careful. This is a disease that can kill people," Zheng Ren said very cautiously.
Dead people … This sentence shocked Liu Xuzhi.
"The boss is not scaring you. It doesn't look like it. I think he's too nervous," Su Yun said. "Flesh-Eating fungus is not a single bacterium. It refers to necrotizing fasciitis caused by different bacteria. It's a general term for streptococcus or fungi that can cause muscle tissue damage."
"Yes, Staphylococcus aureus and streptococcus are both types of flesh-eating fungus," Zheng Ren said. "Because these bacteria infect the subcutaneous fascia and cause inflammation, the clinical course is rapid and serious, and the mortality rate is high, so they are collectively known as flesh-eating fungus."
The previous patient was sent down, and the next patient came up. Zheng Ren stood up. "I'm going to perform the surgery. Su Yun, tell Old Liu about the flesh-eating fungus."
After saying that, he looked at Liu Xuzhi very seriously and said in a deep voice, "Don't be careless. It will cost your life."
"See, the boss is so cautious. Doesn't it make people feel disgusted?" Su Yun asked with a smile.
Liu Xuzhi moved his mouth, but he didn't know how to answer Su Yun's words.
"Old Liu, we're not in Pengxi Village now. If there's a problem, we still have to treat it. Your health is the key to performing surgery. If your body collapses and you die, your wife and children will have to pack up and go back to their hometown. "
Su Yun described a scene. Liu Xuzhi heard the sound of the cold northwest wind whistling in his hometown in the cold winter. The wind swept up the pure white snow and slapped it on his face. His heart was cold.
"Brother Yun, isn't it just Staphylococcus aureus? It doesn't seem like a big deal in the hospital, right?" Lin Jiaojiao asked.
She watched Boss Zheng go in and set up his position. Then, he put on his lead apron and washed his hands. She felt a little conflicted.
If Boss Zheng could come here to perform surgery every day, how great would that be? If that was the case, Liu Xuzhi's illness seemed to be a good thing.
However, Boss Zheng said that after finishing the patient in front of him, he would take a break and not accept any more patients. Although it had an impact on short-term profits, from another perspective, it seemed to be a type of hunger marketing.
As Lin Jiaojiao spoke to Su Yun, her thoughts ran wild.
"Sister Lin, you don't know how powerful it is," Su Yun said. "In the hospital, once a problem is discovered, it will definitely be controlled with drugs early. That's why you think Staphylococcus aureus isn't that powerful."
"But that's the bacteria that the human body comes into contact with and produces through the respiratory tract and other means. Old Liu's … Let's assume that it's a flesh-eating fungus, then … By the way, Old Liu, do you eat raw or cooked fish? "
Su Yun's thoughts changed very quickly. With one sentence, he changed his thoughts two or three times.
"Raw," Liu Xuzhi answered blankly.
"Look at you. Just use chopsticks to pick up the best pieces and eat them. Why are you biting on the shell of the prawns?" Su Yun complained.
"I've never eaten such fresh seafood in my hometown …" Liu Xuzhi argued in a low voice.
"Ask the waiter to serve another serving. If it's not enough, we'll order all the prawns in the shop," Su Yun said heroically. "Next time, remember to call the waiter directly and ask her to serve another serving according to the menu."
Liu Xuzhi was speechless.
Serve another serving? He could not say such words.
"The temperature for inactivation of Staphylococcus aureus and Streptococcus is basically around 70 degrees Celsius. There's definitely no problem with cooking them. If you eat them raw, there's a real possibility of infection. The flesh-eating fungus carried on the seafood directly enters the fascia. Once necrotizing fasciitis occurs, it'll be troublesome. "
"A few days ago, the boss and I met a patient with Salmonella infection in the emergency department. That kind of bacteria isn't a big problem. The onset is slow, so there's plenty of time to deal with it. Yours is different. The onset is urgent. Every year, people die from flesh-eating fungus infection. "
Lin Jiaojiao saw that Su Yun sounded reasonable, so she asked in a low voice, "Brother Yun, people will really die."
"The flesh-eating fungus can enter the human body through some small wounds on the skin, and it's very toxic, so people with weak immunity can't resist it at all," Su Yun said. "Old Liu does interventional surgery every day. The X-rays cause his body's immunity to be low, so after being pricked yesterday, he started to have a low fever today. His body is actually starting to react."
"Although it's more likely that the boss is making a mountain out of a molehill, it's still better to rest for two days. Sister Lin, you can't skin him in public and exploit the remaining value of industrial workers. "
Lin Jiaojiao knew that Su Yun was joking. Although her heart ached, she knew that she had no room to refuse. Boss Zheng and Brother Yun had both talked about this matter very seriously. If she still disagreed, could she fall out with them just because of the number of surgeries in a few days?
"Old Liu, I know you don't want to, but there's no room for discussion," Su Yun said with certainty. "Young people cry for love, but you cry for poverty. The boss knows this, but it doesn't matter. Rest for a while and don't go on the surgery. I'm telling you. "
"Oh." Liu Xuzhi nodded. He was worried about how to talk to Chief Zhu about this matter.
"But I don't think it looks like it, but I still have to observe it. Old Liu, you have to pay attention to whether your fingers hurt. "
"It doesn't hurt."
"I'm not talking about you now. In the next few days, you have to pay attention if you feel any pain. You have to bite the shell when eating prawns. A few days ago, I met a small patient who ate juice and licked the bottle. In the end, the boss pumped air into it and got the bottle off. His tongue was stuck black. Fortunately, it was early. If it was a few hours later, it would have died. "
"Look at you, why are you like a child?"
Su Yun's words were a little messy, and his thoughts changed very quickly. Liu Xuzhi couldn't keep up with his rhythm.
