Chapter 93: Drug shortage crisis, external exchange

What is lacking in the apocalyptic plane is not only food and daily necessities, but there is also a huge gap in medicine.

However, there had never been a large-scale epidemic before, and most people were hiding at home to avoid the disaster, so few people went to the hospital to see a doctor, so the problem in this regard did not seem so urgent.

The emergence of new epidemics is a bad omen.

There are only more than 300 patients at present, but the hospital has begun to face a drug shortage crisis.

Yun Zhen was worried that a plague might come, so he quickly discussed with the Pei family:

"Shall I give you some skin medicine? Also prepare a batch of basic supplies for sterilization and disinfection."

Pei Hao nodded immediately: "Thank you, we need these now."

It's 4:30 in the afternoon, so there's still plenty of time.

Yunzhen hurried out of the house and rode a shared bicycle to look for a pharmacy along the way.

The drug control in Xia Country is very strict. Even if it is just the most common medicine, purchasing it in large quantities will arouse the vigilance of the pharmacy.

If the other party called the police, she wouldn't know what excuse to make to get away with it.

Alcohol, iodine, hydrogen peroxide, dermatitis cream, erythromycin ointment, etc., anything related to skin or sterilization and disinfection, I buy several bottles in every store.

You can buy a whole box of basic supplies such as masks, cotton swabs, bandages, and Band-Aids.

I went to almost all the pharmacies in the central city and bought so much that I couldn't take it all back home, so I rented a small truck to transport it.

After arriving home and making sure that her parents were not at home, she dared to have the truck deliver the dowry to the door of the building.

Unload quickly and then quickly transfer to the doomsday plane.

A small portion was left to the Pei family, and the rest was handed over to the Central Hospital of Beidu.

The quantity of medicine is small, so it is more cost-effective to give the giant version directly.

Items such as masks have been shrunk to make them easier to use.

After doing all this, Yunzhen still felt uneasy.

"I don't know if these medicines can work..."

Pei Hao felt that this batch of medicine came at a very timely moment:

"Raw materials are in serious shortage right now. We are lucky to have medicine. It doesn't matter if it's not suitable for the disease. We can modify and process it here. There is no such thing as useless medicine."

Yun Zhen felt relieved after hearing this and was about to ask about the epidemic situation when he saw Pei Yan and Director Ye walk in.

At the same time, it brought a very special news.

"My lord, countries M, Y, and R have contacted us, saying they want to exchange cultural relics for food and clean water. We held a meeting to discuss it and think it's feasible. I wonder if you are willing to do so?"

Yun Zhen was surprised: "Exchange cultural relics for food? Are they the ones that were stolen during the war?"

Director Ye smiled and said, "Not only that, they are also ready to exchange their own products."

It seems that other countries have reached the end of their rope and are having to empty out their last bit of savings to save themselves.

It's a pity that the system has not yet unlocked foreign maps, otherwise I would really like to go and see how the situation outside has evolved.

Using the stolen goods to negotiate business with the robbed country sounds like typical pirate logic.

Universal concepts at home and abroad have always been different. Foreigners do not value benevolence, righteousness, propriety, wisdom and trustworthiness, and we cannot demand too much from them.

It would be great if the lost treasure could be recovered one day.

Yun Zhen happily agreed: "Let's exchange! You guys discuss the specific exchange rules, and then tell me how much supplies you need."

After getting the approval, Director Ye was also very excited. He said that he would give her the exact news in two days, and then rushed back to the Government Building to work overtime in the meeting.

Everyone in the room dispersed and went back to their work.

Yun Zhen held his chin and switched the scene to various hospitals in Beidu, intending to see the current situation with his own eyes.

This sight gave me a shock.

She discovered that the new epidemic was more difficult to deal with than she had imagined.

The patient not only had red spots all over his body and a high fever, but he also looked pale and weak, with almost no strength left.

They lay in bed without moving much, but looked extremely tired.

I couldn't eat, I couldn't sleep well, and I was losing weight very quickly.

It looked as if the vitality had been sucked away by a monster, and in some cases they were even as shriveled as mummies.

There was no significant improvement after treatment, the condition was just barely under control and he was hanging on in agony.

Yunzhen paced back and forth in the study, and it took him a while to calm down his anxious mood.

Switch the scene and continue to observe other departments, listening to doctors and nurses talking about the current situation of the hospital.

"We have almost used up all the cold medicine, cough medicine and antipyretic medicine. If we don't restock, we will suffer. The shortage of medicine in the pediatric department is particularly severe. The number of conflicts between parents and doctors has increased."

"The intensive care unit is even worse off. Many drugs are fatal if they are out of supply. The number of deaths each week is almost higher than the number of hospital admissions."

"The dean has already submitted the application, but we don't know when the approval will come. We can only wait. Sigh!"

"The existing medicines should be used for children first. The dosage should be halved, and adults can just rely on their immunity to endure. All supplies are in short supply right now, and we are not the only ones waiting for approval."

After reading it, Yunzhen felt a little heavy-hearted. This situation was too serious.

The medicines she could buy were limited in both variety and quantity, and were far from meeting the needs of the apocalyptic plane.

Even if it is a giant version, it must have the stock of at least a large pharmacy.

She couldn't do it on her own, so she had to find someone she could trust to help her.

Yun Zhen urgently summoned the Pei Yan brothers and asked them:

"Do you have the latest drugs developed in the past 50 years, especially those that are effective for serious diseases and emergencies?"

"If you are willing to provide this kind of prescriptions and treatment techniques, I can take them to other worlds to exchange for more medicine for you."

Pei Yan had just come from the conference room in the government building and had some understanding of the situation in the hospital.

He immediately stood up and said, "No problem. Tianzhou Group has a specialized biopharmaceutical company and has patents for many new drugs."

"For common lung cancer, liver cancer, intestinal cancer and stomach cancer, we have precise targeted drugs with a cure rate of up to 95%. Even for the most serious advanced patients, we can use a liquid medicine called 'Resurrection Water' to extend the life of dying people by 1-5 years."

"These drugs are very effective. Patients can recover from their diseases in a very relaxed state. It is not like chemotherapy more than a hundred years ago, which made patients suffer so much that they could not even eat."

"There are two patents for emergency treatments, both for injections."

"One is for viral and bacterial infections, called universal anti-inflammatory injection, which can block the invasion of viruses and bacteria in time. If it is symptomatic, it will be cured in half an hour. If it is not symptomatic, it can also delay the time, leaving time for patients with acute infections to be checked and treated symptomatically, thus improving the survival rate."

"The other is for biological toxins, such as bites and stings from venomous snakes and other poisonous creatures. It's called universal anti-venom, which can greatly reduce the toxicity of biological organisms. Usually one shot can detoxify. If it can't completely detoxify, it will also leave the injured with ample time for medical examination."

Pei Yan introduced several star products of Tianzhou Biological in detail, hoping to satisfy the goddess and exchange them for more medicines.

The emergence of new epidemics is alarming.

If the situation gets worse, they will need to have sufficient drug reserves to deal with it.
