Chapter 1648 High-risk groups
The name Vibrio trauma sounds very unfamiliar. The clerks present and the old customers who followed up to watch the fun were not even sure which four words it was.
If Zhang Zian said that animals are poisonous, even if the fish that scratched Zhao Welder's palm yesterday seemed not poisonous, in fact, the gene mutation was poisonous, Zhao Welder and Wu Electric will definitely believe it, but the bacteria... sounds too mysterious.
In everyone's understanding, the most susceptible infection after injury is tetanus. What the hell is this Vibrio?
Zhang Zian knew that if he didn't explain clearly, it would be impossible for him to let this stubborn man Zhao welder go to the hospital obediently, so he patiently told the whole story of Vibrio trauma.
There are about ninety Vibrio, most of which have no direct harm to the human body. Therefore, Zhang Zian only knows this Vibrio. After all, this Vibrio is closely related to marine organisms.
Vitiligo was taken out alone in 1976 as a brand new pathogen, and it was only then that people gradually paid attention to it.
This Vibrio can only survive in seawater, is salt-benefiting and likes high temperatures. Generally, when the temperature is higher than 30 degrees Celsius, the temperature of the seawater will also be higher than 20 degrees Celsius. At this time, this Vibrio begins to become active, so people are often infected in temperate summers, or in tropical and subtropical areas for most of the year.
As long as the temperature is appropriate, Vibrio trauma is very wide distributed in the sea. Whether it is eaten uncooked seafood or damaged wounds that come into contact with seawater, they may be infected with Vibrio trauma. Some developed countries have already prompted relevant warnings on seafood labels.
Having said that, healthy people have sufficient resistance and are actually not very prone to infection with Vibrio trauma. High-risk people are men with chronic liver disease living by the beach.
That’s right, young women rarely get infected with Vibrio due to the protection of estrogen in their bodies. I can only say that the young lady is indeed treated preferentially everywhere, and even the bacteria are given to the young lady...
However, when women get older and their estrogen levels drop, the chance of infection will be close to that of men. This is what is called the so-called bacteria since ancient times, and they are not allowed to see white hair on earth.
The reason why it is emphasized is that people living by the seaside face greater dangers, because only people living by the seaside have the opportunity to eat fresh seafood that is freshly produced. Only in this way can they have the chance to be infected with Vibrio trauma by food, especially in the process of processing seafood, such as when scraping scales and removing internal organs, people living in the mainland, because the seafood they eat is frozen, there is no possibility of Vibrio trauma by food.
As a well-known common sense, no matter how salty sea water is, once it is frozen, it will desalinate and become fresh water. Vibrio, which likes high temperatures and is halophilus, is wrapped in ice and will soon freeze to death.
It can only be said that while people living by the sea enjoy the most delicious and natural taste of seafood, they also face the possibility of being infected by this terrible bacteria.
As Wu Diangong complained, how many elderly retired people are completely healthy? More or less they have some chronic diseases, and young people are basically sub-healthy.
Welder Zhao likes to drink, but Zhang Zian didn't see his physical examination report, but expected that he had a certain degree of alcoholic liver, which is more common among middle-aged and elderly men who retired in factories.
For middle-aged and elderly men with unhealthy liver, this determines that Zhao Welder is among the group of people who are most likely to be infected with Vibrio trauma.
The terrible thing about Vibrio trauma is that it occurs quickly. From the beginning of infection, it may cause death within 48 hours. Since there are relatively few cases, the mortality rate is generally estimated to be above 40%. If treatment is not timely, even if your life is saved, you may have to be amputated. Second, it is that this bacteria has been understood too little by humans. Humans are not even sure about its pathogenic mechanism, and this bacteria will not even mention it in medical schools.
Because I know very little about Vibrio trauma, the infected people are often as indifferent as Zhao Welder after the onset, and miss the best treatment time. Even if I go to the hospital for treatment, the doctor may adopt the wrong treatment plan due to ignorance of the disease, and even... It can be asserted that the reason why the cases of this disease are rare is not because there are so few infected people, but because some of the infected people have died in an unknown way.
To be honest, the mortality rate of Vibrio is so high, not that it is so amazing. Some bacteria on land are more powerful than it. However, humans are animals living on land. The immune system has almost no directional immunity to the bacteria in the sea. Unlike influenza, they are used in different ways almost every year, because if the influenza virus does not mutate in different ways, the human immune system may have been no longer afraid of the flu.
This is like the first time a cat has given dog blood. The cat's immune system is ignorant of dog blood cells, so it does not have a rejection reaction. However, it has actually quietly marked the characteristics of dog blood cells. If you dare to give it a second time, the immune system will be in a big way in minutes.
In summer, everyone likes to go to the beach to play in water, relieve the heat and cool down, and can also feast your eyes. When having fun, they always forget the terror of the sea. There are various dangers hidden in the sea. Not only the shark jellyfish reef frenzy on the surface, but even the microscopic residents who are invisible to the naked eye are always ready to invade the human body.
Zhang Zi'an briefly explained the horror of Vibrio. Even the careless Welder Zhao was so careless that he lost his face. They always laughed at themselves and stepped into the coffin with half of their feet, but when they were in the danger of death, who wouldn't cherish their lives?
"Old Zhao! Why are you still sitting? Go to the hospital quickly!" Wu Dinggong reacted first, grabbed Zhao Welder's arm and pulled it out, "Xiao Zhang, wait for me to find someone to do the rest of the work, you don't have to worry about..."
"Wait!"
Zhang Zi'an ran back to the second floor and took out a few pills from the medicine cabinet and handed them to Zhao Welder, "Take some medicine first and go to the emergency room when you go to the hospital and say that you have been infected with Vibrio trauma and must be treated immediately. The attitude can be tougher, otherwise some medical staff may be negligent because they do not understand this bacteria."
At this time, the Welder Zhao was sober that he took the medicine without thinking. Without even asking, he took out his cell phone in panic, "I...I want to call my wife..."
"Oh! You are usually in a hurry, but when you arrive, your mother-in-law will be mother-in-law!" Wu Xinggong snatched his phone with a terrible affair, "Go to the hospital first! Let's go!"
Wu led the Welder Zhao out of the shop like a dead dog, waved his hand to stop a taxi and headed straight to the nearest hospital.
