When Fang Chen heard this probability, he was so frightened that he trembled!
It’s so scary!
In other words, half of the people in Yanghuafang will die, and many of the remaining half will have different sequelae.
Is it really over this time?
Everyone at the scene fell into silence, and the atmosphere was very depressing.
As doctors, when there is a plague or an incurable disease, doctors have a parental heart, and they feel the most uncomfortable.
A doctor on the side screamed with tears on his face: "This disease is mainly caused by inflammation of the lungs. As long as the inflammation can be controlled and eliminated, the problem can be solved, but we don't have this kind of medicine!"
Another doctor's eyes were red: "This is an order issued by His Majesty himself. If we cannot stop this plague, we will all die..."
No one wants to die.
The people here are very senior and have superb medical skills. It is not worth dying here.
Inflammation?
Fang Chen's brain was racing rapidly.
If this disease were treated now, it would definitely be curable.
However, ancient medicine was relatively backward and there was no solution at all.
Fang Chen is not a doctor, but he only understands basic medical principles. Pneumonia is generally divided into viral and bacterial causes.
Based on the current symptoms, Fang Chen determined that this was a type of bacterial pneumonia.
To deal with bacteria, the most powerful thing is definitely antibiotics, but there were no antibiotics in ancient times.
If not, make antibiotics.
However, Fang Chen did not do any research on this aspect.
Got it!
Fang Chen watched a lot of TV series before he traveled through time. He likes to follow those time-traveling dramas the most. There are many doctors who traveled to ancient times and made penicillin.
Compared with other antibiotics, penicillin is the easiest to make and is also the first generation antibiotic.
"Master Li, I know there is a medicine that can cure pneumonia!"
"But this requires a large number of doctors to come and study together. As long as we create this drug, we can definitely cure everyone's disease!"
As soon as Fang Chen finished speaking, Li Zhong and the doctors on site were stunned.
But Luo Longyu's heart was not disturbed. He had already guessed that Fang Chen had a solution.
Li Zhong looked at Fang Chen in confusion: "Master Fang, are you kidding?"
"There is no cure for this disease. We can only use existing drugs to fight inflammation and prolong the probability of onset. There is no drug that can completely cure it!"
Fang Chen looked serious: "Master Li, do you think I'm joking? Would I joke about the lives of everyone in Yanghuafang?"
"I really remembered that there is a medicine that can cure the plague."
An accompanying doctor next to Li Zhong looked surprised: "Master Fang, you don't seem to be a doctor, right? How can you prepare an antidote if you are not a doctor?"
Another person also said: "We have heard a little bit about Mr. Fang's talents in other areas. Is it possible that Mr. Fang has also made achievements in medicine?"
Someone else said: "To develop a new drug, it can take anywhere from a few years to decades. It will take several generations of hard work to develop a formula."
"Master Fang actually said that he wants to study the formula now. Isn't this just a sharpening of skills before the battle? Is it too late?"
The doctors at the scene didn't believe Fang Chen.
After all, if a layman suddenly said that he could make a new medicine to treat the plague, no one at the scene would believe it.
Luo Longyu spoke again: "Since Lord Fang said there is a way, we'd better listen to Lord Fang to finish his words."
Fang Chen explained to everyone: "The drug I know is called penicillin, which can eliminate most inflammations. I vaguely remember the preparation method, but I need everyone's help to study it together."
"I believe that as long as everyone works together, we can definitely figure it out!"
No one at the scene had heard of these three words, penicillin.
Li Zhong looked surprised: "Does Master Fang know some ancient prescriptions and ancient secrets?"
Others also asked: "Does Mr. Fang really have a way to cure this lung disease?"
Fang Chen affirmed again: "I did see some ancient recipes and production methods from ancient books. I need everyone to help me."
Everyone finally believed in Fang Chen.
Because there is no other way.
Furthermore, if you stay, you will most likely get infected and die here.
Now that they heard that Fang Chen had a solution, everyone saw hope.
Li Zhong assured Fang Chen: "As long as Mr. Fang can create an antidote, everyone in Tai Hospital will fully cooperate."
Other doctors agreed.
"Okay!" As long as he convinced these doctors, Fang Chen was confident that he would be able to develop penicillin.
"Everyone, I will take out the prescription for the antidote tomorrow morning at the latest, and then we can all make the medicine together!"
Afterwards, Fang Chen left. He took the medicine and hurried to Ye Xue'e's side.
He brought medicines prepared by the Imperial Hospital to Ye Xue'e and Hongyou.
This medicine is several times better than the medicine previously prepared by Dr. Yang Huafang.
Fang Chen asked the two women to rest, and he began to boil the fire and boil the medicine. After boiling it, he brought it to the two women.
After drinking the medicine, the two women went to rest again.
After dinner, Fang Chen began to write prescriptions.
Fang Chen tried hard to think about the details of making penicillin on TV, and he wrote while thinking about it.
Especially a TV series called Renyi, which has been remade in many countries.
Fang Chen has watched this TV series many times. The protagonist used his own technology to make penicillin many times.
First, you need to collect a large amount of Penicillium. The method of collection is to use moldy food, such as steamed buns, buns, fruits, etc. Once the mold turns green, it can be used.
This is very easy to do. People have a lot of food at home, and it is very easy to prevent food from becoming moldy. As long as there is a certain amount of moisture and humidity, it will become moldy within a few hours of being sealed.
Then prepare a culture solution, which is a mixture of juice made from ground rice and juice made from boiled potatoes, or corn juice, and then put Penicillium into the culture solution and wait for seven days.
During these seven days, prepare activated carbon.
The method of making activated charcoal is not difficult. Put hardwood or fruit shells into a metal container with pores and dry-burn over an open flame until no more smoke comes out of the pot.
Wait for the carbonized hardwood to cool down, then wash away the dust and impurities with cold water, drain the water, grind the charcoal into powder, and then air-dry the carbon powder to complete the production of activated carbon.
Next, there is the penicillin extraction step. Take a clean glass container, place a piece of cotton at the mouth of the funnel, and filter the culture solution into the container through the funnel.
Pour three times the amount of rapeseed oil into the container, and start stirring until the liquid in the container is divided into three layers. Then carefully scoop out the top two layers of liquid, leaving only the watery substance at the bottom.
Then add the pre-prepared toner until the toner absorbs all the liquid.
Wash the carbon with distilled water, then inject acidic water, and then inject alkaline water. The resulting liquid is filtered through a funnel filled with cotton. The resulting liquid is penicillin solution.
Drop the penicillin solution into the pre-prepared Petri dish, cover it and wait for a few days.
If a circle appears around the solution, it means the penicillin extraction was successful.
