4542 The Other Side 511
Little Yichen knew too, that his condition was worsening.
Every time he saw the medical staff hurrying into his ward fully armed to take care of him and give him injections and infusions, and that his mask was getting thicker and thicker, he gradually understood that his condition did not seem as optimistic as he had imagined.
However, he did not want his mother to worry. Even though he was light-headed from the high fever, he still held on to his spirit and talked to her for more than ten minutes every day.
After one of these calls, he actually passed out from exhaustion and was on the verge of shock. In the end, the medical staff used a defibrillator to save him.
All these, he did not dare to mention to his mother.
…
“What?! The influenza is spreading all over the world?”
Hua Jin nervously gripped Alice’s shoulder. “Is the influenza virus serious this time round?! I spoke with Shishi on the phone and she said that all the hospitals are already overloaded. Moreover, all international borders have been tightened so it’s difficult to travel.”
Even if one had a fever or a cold for a day, the person would be isolated and observed.
The entire world was on high alert.
“The flu has spread like wildfire all over the world. According to research, the first case was a person who accidentally ate the meat of an infected pig and went overseas for a trip. This flu is the most contagious among children. Adults with poor immunity are not spared.” Hua Jin continued with lingering fear, “At first, I thought it was just an ordinary cold. Later, I heard that there were already deaths. Now, I’m hearing that Little Yichen’s condition is very serious, and Yueyao and Yichen are still in quarantine in the hospital. I wonder how they’re doing?”
When he found out that the three little guys had been infected with the flu virus, he had hurriedly made a trip back. However, the necessary approvals from the customs took a long time. Moreover, customs clearance was extremely strict. A person with any signs of a cold would be isolated at once.
Even someone who appeared to be in good health had to go through a series of health procedures.
The global tourism industry was facing a terrifying downturn.
Because of this influenza, all industries around the world were facing huge losses.
“To date, there have been hundreds of deaths worldwide. Among them, there have been many doctors who ahve died in the line of duty.”
The actor fidgeted uneasily. “By the way, has there been any news from Gong Jie lately?”
Alice shook her head. “Thanks to the flu, there’s been no news from him. We don’t have any news about him yet.”
“Could he be trapped in another country?”
“It’s not impossible.” Alice was also a little worried. “But don’t worry too much.”
“Do you think he’ll accidentally catch the flu virus? After all, it’s rampant all over the world now, and many people have been caught off guard.”
“…How would I know! I’m not an immune cell in his body!” Alice narrowed her eyes and changed the subject. “You seem very concerned about him?”
“Aren’t you worried?”
Alice replied truthfully, “Worried… of course”
How could she be not be worried?! It was just that she didn’t look to be so.
The actor was unimpressed. “Shouldn’t you be worried?”
Alice replied, “Don’t worry. With his health condition, he’ll definitely…”
Before she could finish, the actor covered her mouth nervously.
