Text 1199 Traditional Skills

"In October 1985, in Ashford, a small town in Kent in southeastern England, a farmer discovered that a dairy cow numbered 113 in his cattle pen became sickly and his body size was obviously thinner."

"Then the 113th cow started to get sick, and the farmer went to the vet to see it... You know there is an old saying-the family has a lot of money, and the hairy ones don't count." Wu Mian said, "It is very likely that a plague will come down. Dead light."

"Yeah." Li Qiong nodded, indicating that he knew.

"Later, a veterinarian judged that this cow numbered 113 had a brain tumor. So he was slaughtered and the carcass was dissected. After he carefully opened the cow's skull, he was surprised by the sight in front of him."

"The brain tissue of a dead cow is filled with countless small holes, like a lump of rotten meat, filled with a large number of vacuoles caused by tissue necrosis, and a lot of signs of cell fiber proliferation...like a piece full of holes. Sponge."

"After confirmation by the British Central Veterinary Laboratory, the disease was named bovine spongiform encephalopathy, which is what we call mad cow disease."

"I won’t talk about the symptoms, but prion was discovered later. Prion protein is not a virus. It does not require DNA or RNA to replicate, and it cannot be eliminated with antibiotics. Prion protein does not cause brain inflammation, but only causes it. Chronic damage to the brain."

"In the 1980s and 1990s, agriculture was a very important part of the British economy. If there is a food safety problem, it will be a huge loss of money for the entire country. So at that time, the British government issued a statement prohibiting research on mad cow disease. ."

"So far, Li Qiong, do you think these two things look like?" Wu Mian asked with a smile.

"But... this is a new type of pneumonia virus. It is not cows, but humans." Li Qiong replied in surprise.

"Hehe, we think human life is important, they don't think so." Wu Mian said, "Is it tested once a week, you can wait for other countries to find out, there are more chicken thieves. And the data from a week ago, who would care about it? What if things Seriously, they also have enough time to correct the data."

"..." Li Qiong was speechless.

"In the past, the British government, which had received 46 reports of mad cow disease cases in 1987, still chose to remain silent.

In August of the same year, the number of cases reached 120.

In 1988, there were more than 200 cases of mad cow disease, which in turn involved more than 5,000 local farms in the UK.

In 1990, the Minister of Agriculture in the UK personally fed his daughter a beef burger on live television to show that it is safe to eat beef. A few days ago, the New York boss just went to take the subway. This is the traditional way. "

"Subway?"

"Yesterday the New York boss went to take the subway, indicating that the subway is safe. These are all traditional skills. Remember that the more you lack, the more anxious you are to prove it." Wu Mian said with a smile.

"Uh..." It is still difficult for Li Qiong to accept this kind of ruining three views in an instant.

She has had contact with medical staff in Cambridge, and especially envied the high salaries and high treatment of foreign nurses.

"It wasn't until a child named Stephen died of mad cow disease that they made an announcement with shame."

"The first report to the public appeared in a tabloid column on March 20, 1996. At that time, 10 people died as a result. In the following years, hundreds of people died as a result in the UK.

All these reasons are caused by the inaction of the authorities' acceptance of the report. If Downing Street puts the safety of hits first, respects scientists, and takes reasonable precautions, these tragedies can be avoided. "

"This time is different, brother." Chu Zhixi said with a serious expression.

Wu Mian smiled, "It's nothing different, it's said in a British drama.

The first step: We say nothing will happen.

Step 2: We say that maybe something is going to happen, but we should do nothing.

Step 3: We said maybe we should do something, but we can't do anything.

Step 4: We said maybe we should have done something long ago, but it is too late now. "

"..."

"Now that it is between the first step and the second step, traditional skills, don't be surprised." Wu Mian and Chu Zhixi said, "Next they can say they can't do anything."

"But this is..."

"It doesn't matter what it is, really, believe me, only we care, they don't care at all." Wu Mian said, "Now they can only pray, don't have an ade effect."

"San Antonio and the Dallas area have declared a state of emergency."

"It's useless." Wu Mian said, "Their state of emergency can't contain the flow of people and the spread of the virus. What it does is just delay the spread of the virus for 24 hours. Perhaps, a delay of 24 hours can't do it. "

"Italy has closed down dozens of villages and towns, and the North Island of Japan has closed down cities. The epidemic in South Korea is spread due to Xintiandi."

"South Korea has gone to the magic capital to learn from it. Director Zhang will definitely provide corresponding advice. There will be no major issues." Wu Mian said, "As for Italy, I think the curve is not optimistic. What's the use of dozens of small villages."

"Will the epidemic get worse?"

"It's getting worse~www.wuxiaspot.com~ You shouldn't ask this."

While talking, everyone got into the car.

Wu Mian took the phone to look through it, and said with a smile after a while, "The pressure is too much, the CDC has already been counseled."

Insert an app: Perfectly reproduce the old version of the book-chasing artifact that can be replaced with the source app-Mimi Reading.

"Oh?"

Chu Zhixi took Wu Mian's phone and turned it over.

"How could Dr. Nancy Messonier say that!" Chu Zhixi had difficulty accepting those top experts in the professional field to talk nonsense.

"What if you don't say that?" Wu Mian said, "Let them come to fight the epidemic? They are all private hospitals. Who will sell their lives without giving money? Don't always listen to the propaganda of the American emperor, when the relationship between people changes. When it becomes money, it will always be a little more cool. And it looks good, in fact, an underwater crocodile like Owen will devour everyone."

"Will you eat us too?"

"It won't be possible for the time being, because we still have use value." Wu Mian said, "Owen pointed at me to help him fly up mechanically."

"Hahaha, it's impossible. Machinery soars, that is the field of materials science and mechanics, we are doctors."

"Who knows, I will study human science after the epidemic is over. I will catch Zheng Linyuan and Mr. Chu and do a few radiographs first."

The term “Mechanical Ascent” is too weird and sounds like a fantasy novel, but Wu Mian said it very formally and seriously.

"I don't know what major event Owen is talking about, and I'm becoming more and more curious." Chu Zhixi said eagerly.

"Look at it, I think it should be the kind that can be recorded in the annals of history."
