C1901 source of plague (1/2)

”Do you want to do it? We can take this opportunity to encourage the natives to attack the Chinese... ”

”No, no, no. I'm curious as to what these Chinese people can find out about a plague that has nothing to do with them. Why would they waste their energy?”

The person hiding in the window was actually the French Consul General Fei Dinanzijue, who lived in Egypt. He was also the person who managed the entire Canal Company.

This time, in order to deal with the Chinese, he had actually rushed from the comfortable Cairo to Suez Port. However, he didn't expect to encounter this sudden plague even after arriving here for a few days.

”Master, why hesitate? ”Those natives who only acknowledge money have long complained that our deposit is too little. It would be better to take this opportunity to let them make a small fortune first, so that we can ease their hearts …”

”Enough! ”Ignorant thing, what can you tell!” Ferdinand scolded in a low voice, ”Can't you see how professional these people are? Just from the equipment these doctors have, I know that they are not ordinary. Since when did savage Asia have so many high-quality doctors? ”

”This plague not only killed those aboriginals, even our garrison and employees were threatened. Now that there are people who aren't afraid of death and want to find a way out, why not look on coldly? ”Let's wait for them to find out. We have plenty of time …”

Through the window and the open door of the courtyard, Fei Dinanzijue could clearly see all the movements in the courtyard. Especially the row of wooden medicine boxes at the corner, as well as the row of microscopes and other equipment there, it all proved the speciality of this group of people.

One by one, the corpses of the dead were carried out. The vomit and urine that had been extracted were dug into the ground to be buried. The melted samples were placed under the microscope. The main culprit of this plague was slowly brought to the surface of the water.

”There are excess red and white blood cells in the stool samples...”

”Staphylococcus aureus is over the mark... Dysentery Bacteria Excess... ”

”There are a large number of patients with severe symptoms of hematochezia... Three unidentified bacteria have been found in the vomit, and samples have been taken for preservation … ”

”The patient is dehydrated in large quantities and needs to be supplemented with salt and sugar water. Go to the local officials to coordinate with them... ”Prepare to draw blood, test blood samples …” ”No, no

The entire medical team started to work in an orderly manner. Currently, Doctor Ba Ke and Evil Doctor Huang had an 80% confidence that the source of this plague was dysentery, but they had to find the source of the dysentery before they could make their final judgement.

After working busily for two and a half hours, the soldiers who went to the different wells in the port to collect the samples came back one after another. The glass bottle s were filled with turbid well water.

”There are a total of six wells in Suez Port, all of which have been sampled … ”These Egyptians are really something. No one cares if we find them or find them. They just look at us like ghosts …” The horse scolded back in anger.

”Don't be impatient, they don't know anything about the plague. Maybe in their eyes, the plague is just a god's punishment!”

”Found it …” ”Sure enough, five of the six wells contained Escherichia coli and dysentery bacilli, while the other harmful bacteria in the intestines were severely overrated …”

”That's right!” Ba Ke quickly walked out of the courtyard. ”It should be a dysentery attack due to drinking water pollution, this isn't a very serious plague, as long as you teach the locals a way to prevent it, it will be effective. Bring me to the well and let me inspect it, the locals will be your guide immediately …”

”Don't mention it, we met that coward before when we were looking for a well, but he refused to show us the way. He's scared out of his wits!” ”The other locals were all the same. They hid when they saw us, and screamed at the top of their lungs when they knocked on the door. We didn't know if they were scolding us or not …”
