Pet King Chapter 1639

1648 High-risk group

The name “vibro fiend” sounded very unfamiliar. The shop assistants and the few regular customers who came in to watch the fun weren’t even sure what it was.

If Zhang Zian said that any animal was poisonous, even if the fish that cut welder Zhao’s palm yesterday didn’t seem to be poisonous, but was actually poisonous because of genetic mutation, welder Zhao and electrician Wu would definitely believe it without a doubt. But regarding bacteria … It sounded too mysterious.

In everyone’s knowledge, the easiest thing to get infected after an injury was tetanus. What the hell was this bacteria of yours?

Zhang Zian knew that if he didn’t explain it clearly, it would be impossible to make welder Zhao, who was more stubborn than a donkey, go to the hospital obediently, so he patiently explained the ins and outs of the virus.

There were about 90 types of Vipers, most of which were not directly harmful to the human body, so Zhang Zian only knew this one type of Vipers. After all, this type of Vipers was closely related to marine life.

It was only in 1976 that Vipera Vulture was identified as a completely new pathogen. From then on, people started to pay attention to it.

This type of Viola could only survive in seawater. It was salt-thirsty and liked high temperatures. Generally, when the temperature was above 30 degrees Celsius, the temperature of the seawater would also be above 20 degrees Celsius. At this time, this type of Viola would start to become active. Therefore, people would often be infected in the summer of the temperate zone, or during most of the year in the tropical and subtropical regions.

As long as the temperature was right, the bacteria was widely distributed in the sea. Whether it was eating uncooked seafood or a damaged wound coming into contact with seawater, it was possible to be infected with the bacteria. Some developed countries had already given relevant warnings on the labels of seafood.

Having said that, healthy people had enough resistance and were not easy to be infected with the virus. The high-risk group was men with chronic liver disease living by the sea.

That’s right, due to the protection of the estrogen in the body, it was very rare for young women to be infected with the virus. It could only be said that young ladies were indeed treated well everywhere. Even the bacteria were lenient on young ladies …

However, when women got older, their estrogen levels would decrease, and the probability of infection would be close to that of men. This was the so-called “since ancient times, bacteria was like a beauty, and no one could see white hair in the world.”

The reason why it was emphasized that people living by the sea faced greater danger was that only people living by the sea had the opportunity to eat fresh seafood, and only then could they have the chance to be infected by the food with the bacteria, especially in the process of processing seafood, such as injuring their hands when they were scraping the scales and removing the internal organs … On the contrary, people living in the mainland, because the seafood they ate was frozen, had no possibility of being infected by the bacteria.

It was common knowledge that no matter how salty the seawater was, once it was frozen, it would desalinate into fresh water. The salt-loving and high temperature-loving bacteria, v. Nihila, was covered in ice and soon froze to death.

It could only be said that while people living by the sea enjoyed the most delicious and natural taste of seafood, they also faced the possibility of being infected by this terrible bacteria.

Just as electrician Wu had said, how many retired people were completely healthy? They more or less had some chronic diseases, and young people were basically in a sub-healthy state.

Welder Zhao liked to drink. Zhang Zian didn’t see his medical report, but he guessed that he had an alcoholic liver, which was more common among middle-aged and elderly men who retired from factories.

A middle-aged man with an unhealthy liver determined that welder Zhao was the most likely person to be infected with the Vulture.

The scary thing about the bacteria was that it attacked quickly. From the moment of infection, it was possible to die within 48 hours. Due to the low number of cases, the estimated death rate was more than 40%. If treatment was not timely, even if one’s life was saved, it was likely that one would have to amputate. The second reason was that humans knew too little about this bacteria. Humans were not even sure about its pathogenic mechanism, and medical schools would not even mention this bacteria.

Due to the lack of knowledge on the virus, infected people often didn’t care about it, just like welder Zhao, and missed the best time for treatment. Even if they went to the hospital for treatment, the doctors might use the wrong treatment plan due to their ignorance of the disease. It could even be said that the reason why this disease was rare was not because there were so few infected people, but because some of the infected people had already died without knowing why.

Logically speaking, the reason why the fatal rate of the virus was so high wasn’t because it was super awesome. Some bacteria on land were even more awesome than it. However, humans were animals that lived on land. Their immune system had almost no fixed immunity to bacteria from the sea. It was unlike the flu, which came in a different form almost every year. If the flu virus didn’t mutate in a different form, the human immune system might not be afraid of the flu.

It was like a cat’s first transfusion of dog blood. The cat’s immune system was ignorant of dog blood cells, so there was no rejection reaction, but in fact, it had secretly marked the characteristics of dog blood cells. If it dared to transfuse dog blood a second time, the immune system would be able to suppress it in minutes.

In the summer, everyone liked to go to the beach to play in the water to relieve the summer heat and lower the temperature. They could also feast their eyes. When they had fun, they would always forget the horror of the sea and the various dangers hidden in it. Not only were there sharks and jellyfish on the surface, but even the invisible residents of the microworld were also ready to invade the human body at any time.

Zhang Zian briefly explained the scariness of the bacteria. Even welder Zhao, who had always been loud, became listless, and his face turned pale. They usually laughed at themselves for having one foot in the grave, but when they were really facing the danger of death, who didn’t treasure their own life?

“Old Zhao! Why are you still sitting there? Hurry to the hospital!” Electrician Wu was the first to react. He grabbed welder Zhao’s arm and pulled him out.”Xiao Zhang, I’ll get someone to do the rest of the work. You don’t have to worry about it …”

“Wait!”

Zhang Zian ran back to the second floor, took out a few pills from the medicine cabinet, and handed them to welder Zhao.”Take some medicine first. When you get to the hospital, go directly to the emergency department and say that you’ve been infected with vibro fiend and must get treatment immediately. You can be tougher. Otherwise, some medical staff may neglect you because they don’t know this type of bacteria.”

At this time, welder Zhao was out of his wits. Without thinking, he took the medicine with mineral water. Without even asking, he took out his phone in a panic.”I … I want to call my wife …”

“Aiya! You’re usually so hot-headed, but you’re so wishy-washy now!” Electrician Wu snatched the phone away in exasperation.”Let’s go to the hospital first!” Let’s go!”

Electrician Wu dragged welder Zhao out of the shop like he was dragging a dead dog. He waved his hand to stop a taxi and went straight to the nearest hospital.
