Chapter 311: Chapter 311: Deadly Virus
"Actually, this wave of virus can be deadly, and our hospital has already seen over a dozen deaths in just two short days. I never expected Mr. Liu to miraculously save them, let alone cure them. Initially, we had no means of treatment here, and were quite anxious."
"But thankfully, knowing of Doctor Liu’s existence made a difference, otherwise, I’m afraid more patients would have succumbed to their illness."
"Yes, we really were in great distress, completely unsure of what to do. We had never encountered such a virus before."
"All thanks to Mr. Liu."
...
As these directors shared these words, the patients in front of them felt even more astonished; they had never imagined that this was the reason.
Because from the beginning, they didn’t think their symptoms were all that severe.
They didn’t think it was any big deal.
They assumed it was just an ordinary flu.
That’s why so many people frequently visited the clinic.
And there were no patient deaths.
In fact, many had recovered in just one day.
So they really did not feel it was serious, although sometimes they did feel quite painful, but their symptoms were gradually easing.
Now, after hearing the directors describe the situation as so serious, they simply couldn’t believe it.
It took them a while to finally start reacting within their own minds.
"My God, is what you’re saying true? Is the virus really that serious?"
"Yes, we really hadn’t realized, I thought it was just a common cold."
"Right, right, what on earth is going on?"
When the directors saw the patients’ flurry of questions, they realized that they might have spoken out of turn, appearing unaware of the situation.
They opened their mouths, somewhat embarrassed but unsure of what to say or how to explain.
Naturally, the patients next to them were also more curious, very much wanting to understand what all of this was about.
Just then, Liu Zheng happened to arrive to check on the patients’ current conditions.
He overheard their conversation and realized that the directors had informed the patients of the true situation.
Seeing Liu Zheng approach, the patients started to question him in turn.
"Oh my God, Doctor Liu, is it really as serious as he says? That’s truly terrifying."
"Yes, yes, but haven’t many of us here already recovered?"
Liu Zheng himself hadn’t known about the severity of the situation before.
Because none of his staff had died.
It was only after learning of the many deaths in the hospital that he realized things were indeed complicated.
However, even after becoming aware, he initially chose not to inform the patients, seeing no need to worry them.
Because under his care, no one would die.
But now that they knew, he couldn’t keep anything hidden from them and immediately began to speak.
"They’re telling the truth, but you need not worry, under my care, such things won’t occur."
After hearing this, everyone finally took a deep breath of relief.
Although the situation sounded scary, they knew the conditions of those around them.
Everyone was indeed improving, and many had recovered, so what was there to fear?
At this moment, they truly felt more grateful to Liu Zheng.
And they admired him even more.
They never thought he could achieve such a feat; it was something completely unexpected.
"My goodness, Doctor Liu, you really are amazing. We never thought it was so serious before, it seems you saved their lives."
"Yes, yes, if it weren’t for you, we wouldn’t have known what to do."
"Gosh, to think it could be this frightening. We are so thankful for you."
...
Seeing everyone speaking up, Liu Zheng didn’t think what he did was a big deal, for they were all neighbors after all, and it was right to help each other out.
He couldn’t just stand by idly anyway.
Now that he had the ability, he would certainly use it well and not ignore the situation.
So he spoke up readily.
"Alright, alright, no need to be so formal, we’ve known each other for so many years, we’re friends, no need for such politeness."
And even though that was the case, everyone was indeed very thankful. Without anticipating such a dangerous virus, he not only treated everyone quickly but charged very little.
From the beginning,
the reason everyone didn’t go to the hospital straight away was simply because Liu Zheng was conveniently nearby, and his fees were cheaper.
They hadn’t imagined that their choice would turn out to be the right one.
Those who went to the hospital hadn’t expected to end up that way.
It truly left them shaken.
If they had made the wrong decision at that time, everything could have been even more terrifying, and everything might have been ruined.
"Alright, don’t worry too much, keep your spirits up, that’s also very important."
Hearing these words, how could anyone not know what to do?
Soon afterward, Liu Zheng also approached the directors and the dean.
"I have already settled those patients you just sent over, administered medicine, and given them IV fluids. I expect they will gradually improve. I’m short on staff here, so I might need a few of you to come over and lend a hand."
How could anyone refuse upon hearing such a request?
They immediately nodded without hesitation and agreed to help.
"Of course, no problem, we will arrange for some professional staff to come over immediately."
"We are extremely grateful to Mr. Liu, otherwise we would not have known what to do."
After Liu Zheng heard this, he simply raised his hand and gestured.
"Alright, enough of the thanks. Let’s focus on their conditions and get them to recover quickly."
