With the coordination of both the Lucia officials and the "Revolutionary Army," several critically infected individuals and a still-living "zombie" were sent to the temporary camp in the Fla Country.
The critically infected naturally didn’t require further ntion; after undergoing admission procedures, they were sent to a negative pressure ward. Only after receiving routine treatnt to stabilize their condition would they be sent to undergo treatnt in the dical chamber.
As for the "zombie," both the team of experts and Chen Xin were quite interested.
"It looks remarkably aggressive!" The team leader comnted, looking at the "zombie" whose face was still full of ferociousness and a desire to bite sothing despite being firmly restrained. The sight warranted his exclamation.
Although he had encountered countless infected individuals in his lifeti, with infection symptoms in various grotesque forms—to the point where so scenarios made him lose his appetite for days—this "zombie" type was indeed a first for the team leader.
This both surprised and unnerved him sowhat, simply because the virus had naturally mutated to this extent, leading him to worry about whether the terrifying bioweapons from films could also manifest in the real world.
After all, the virus this "zombie" was infected with, after so engineering modifications, was already infinitely close to those biological viruses seen in movies.
The difference between the two was rely that one existed in reality, while the other, in movies, broke the constraint of conservation of energy.
If realizing it in reality was the premise, using the virus currently infecting the "zombie" as the foundation, it was indeed possible to develop a virus capable of widespread dissemination, turning people into such "zombies."
Thinking of this, the team leader’s heart tightened abruptly. Although it was contrary to international conventions and the basal morals of humanity, even before the disaster, countries worldwide privately researched biological weapons. Who could guarantee that in the current situation, no one would explore this seemingly "invincible" bioweapon?
The dreadful potentiality made the team leader resolute to hasten vaccine developnt.
Even if the ergence of bioweapons couldn’t be entirely avoided, it was essential to ensure the virus was preventable and controllable.
Chen Xin was unaware of the multitude of thoughts running through the team leader’s mind upon seeing the "zombie" in just that short ti. He rely looked at the "zombie" ahead, inquiring the Lucia representatives who delivered it: "Are there many ’zombie’-type infected like this?"
"According to the ’Revolutionary Army,’ they erged in the quarantine zone, with dozens turning into these monsters. So were shot on the spot, only a few dozen remained alive, a few were sent to our dical research institutes, and the rest were separately confined. This one is specifically sent for you." The Lucia representative explained to Chen Xin, also asking with concern, "Can they... really be cured?"
"Theoretically, yes, but we need to conduct so tests." Chen Xin nodded, then glanced at the team leader, saying, "Let’s use this one to test the efficacy of the dical chamber."
"Okay, you’re in charge, Chen Academician." The team leader delegated the task to Chen Xin, as the dical chamber was his research achievent.
Chen Xin nodded, instructing the person next to him, "Clean and disinfect the individual, then bring them to the aircraft. I’ll go start the machine."
After saying this, he headed out.
——————————————
On the aircraft, the dical chamber was now unfolded, and Chen Xin was performing an inspection on it.
The dical chamber was previously installed vertically against the aircraft wall, kept folded to save space. When not in use, it stood vertical next to the cabin wall.
However, when required for use, the dical chamber’s supporting fra would flip it over, turning it to a horizontal position to allow patient treatnt inside the dical chamber.
"Is this the dical chamber? It looks a bit like a cof..." Little Li, assigned by the team leader to assist Chen Xin, couldn’t help blurting out his thoughts while looking at the dical chamber, although he quickly stopped himself. Regardless, Chen Xin heard what he was attempting to say.
Glancing at Little Li, Chen Xin didn’t scold him but thought the man truly did not articulate well.
After pondering, Chen Xin said to him, "Little Li, go check if the patient has been brought over, and ensure the restraints are securely fastened to prevent any struggling."
"Got it, I’m on it." Aware of his earlier faux pas, Little Li gladly accepted the task, promptly leaving at a brisk pace.
Watching Little Li leave, Chen Xin shook his head slightly, feeling this person was sowhat incautious.
However, this didn’t concern Chen Xin. As long as the person arrived, the dical chamber could heal them, rendering other detailed issues insignificant.
He didn’t have to wait long; soon, the "zombie," cleaned and changed into surgical attire, was brought over.
"Are they sedated?" Upon seeing the "zombie," significantly calr than before, Chen Xin asked the nearby doctor.
The doctor nodded, confirming with, "Previously they were too aggressive; we couldn’t even clean or disinfect them, so a sedative was administered. It shouldn’t affect the treatnt, right?"
"No worries, it actually makes it easier. I didn’t design restraining belts in the dical chamber, so if they’re overly active, I’m worried they’d damage the equipnt." Chen Xin chuckled, gesturing for them to place the individual in the dical chamber.
Watching the "zombie" being carried into the dical chamber, Chen Xin couldn’t help but raise an eyebrow. After calming down and being cleaned of bloodstains and filth, this "zombie" was quite attractive, a young woman with the typical features of a Lucia native, though her torn lip sowhat affected her appearance.
Moreover, this "zombie" appeared emaciated, likely not having eaten well for an extended period, showing signs of malnutrition.
This prompted Chen Xin to frown slightly, thinking he remarked to the doctor, "Her body may be quite weak. The upcoming treatnt will be physically taxing, better supplent her with so nutrients and fluids to avoid issues during treatnt."
"Sure, I’ll arrange an intravenous glucose infusion imdiately." Hearing Chen Xin’s suggestion, the doctor promptly organized the preparation of the infusion set and glucose.
Administering nutrients via infusion was the quickest way for soone like this "zombie," suffering long-term malnutrition, as food would take much longer to show effects.
Quickly, the glucose and infusion set were fetched, and the "zombie" was administered with the solution.
Once a full bag of glucose had been infused into the "zombie," Chen Xin instructed them to place her in the dical chamber, closing the lid and initiating the treatnt program.
