Chapter 499: Dawn of Victory

? Hughes Medical Institute.

Led by world-renowned immunologists such as Qiu Xiang and Judson, everyone is waiting for the medication situation in the isolation room.

Now that the epidemic of Reedman virus is serious and the situation is special, the WHO and the CDC of various countries have issued a notice that the medical team studying the special drug of Reedman can seek the consent of the family members of sober patients, and directly adopt the method for the unconscious patients. Tested non-toxic and slightly toxic drugs.

This notification is very important. It saves them from the process of testing new drugs on animals, which can greatly shorten the development cycle of drugs.

All their medicines are now administered directly to demented patients. If they don't get treatment, they will surely die, and if they are treated with new drugs, there is still a chance of recovery.

This is the 32nd attempt and all members are praying for it to pass. They were divided into eight groups and carried out drug discovery research from nine different directions. Until now, there has not been much progress.

The Reedman virus is too overbearing.

During the onset of the disease, apart from mental hallucinations, all other body functions of the patient are much stronger than those of healthy people. After half a month, the patient will experience internal bleeding and eventually die.

Except for the improved HX3 agent, no other method has been found for the time being.

And the improved HX3 agent continues to research in the direction of in-depth research, and they are also doing it. After one month, the virus can no longer be suppressed.

The hearts of all the researchers lifted after seeing the doctors in the isolation room inject new drugs into the patients. Ten minutes passed, and everyone was disappointed when they saw the patient who was still struggling on the bed in the isolation room and was babbling nonsense.

"Failed again."

Another failure made all medical scientists feel sad. A few old medical scientists, their eyes are already red, in the face of this kind of disaster, they feel their powerlessness.

"According to incomplete statistics from WHO, the number of direct and indirect deaths caused by the 'death virus' has exceeded 50,000, the number of infected and confirmed cases has exceeded 90,000, and the number of people in quarantine around the world is close to 2.5 million. In the next month, if Without a cure, the death toll is expected to exceed 100,000. This is the largest man-made biological disaster in human history.”

"Los Angeles reported that yesterday, a medical staff in Los Angeles accidentally contracted the 'death virus' while handling the body.

"Reuters news,

In the centralized isolation area of ​​France, a patient broke free from the fixed rope, killed a medical staff and escaped from the isolation room, and released 60 people infected with the virus, causing riots in the isolation area, trying to escape from the isolation area.

The riot caused the death of 3 medical staff, 7 medical staff and 1 anti-chemical soldier infected with the death virus, and 9 infected people died. The French military's chemical defense unit has arrested all the patients, and no infected people have fled the quarantine area. "

In the past two months, news from the hardest-hit areas in the world has weighed heavily on the hearts of the international community. When going out to do any activity, one must be careful, for fear of contracting the 'death virus', and the global economic losses will be immeasurable. .

Capital Tangshan Hospital.

Chen Mo and Wu Bing, as well as a group of team members wearing protective clothing, were walking quickly to the isolation room in the test area.

The expressions on each person's face were different, either anxious or expectant, only Chen Mo and Wu Bing's expressions were relatively calm. They were conducting research and were notified that a patient they had received with the experimental vaccine had an abnormal reaction today.

With the support of Chen Mo's complete technical data and the help of team members, the research and development of the vaccine is developing in the direction expected by Chen Mo, and the accuracy is very fast.

Wu Bing's group successfully found the protective antigen gene of the virus, and Chen Mo led the team to find a suitable mRNA as the vaccine system platform.

The drug has been tested several times, all of which have ended in failure, and the vaccine system platform has been re-improved several times. This is the 8th trial of their customized vaccine.

A reaction is a good thing.

At this time, the most frightening thing is that the drug does not respond.

So after receiving the news, everyone gave up the research in their hands and rushed to the experimental area.

"pain."

"it hurts."

"Doctor, I'm in so much pain, so uncomfortable."

When Chen Mo and Wu Bing entered the isolation room, they heard the patient's voice mixed with pain. The voice was not loud, but to the two of them, it was like the sound of heaven.

When the Reedman virus hits, the patient is like a madman, and there is no such clear voice at all.

This shows that their vaccine has begun to have a little effect.

"Sir, why are you uncomfortable?" Wu Bing leaned down and asked.

"The body hurts, and the brain hurts too." The patient seemed to hear Wu Bing's question and began to answer, as if talking in a sleep, but with a cry in his voice, obviously suffering great pain.

This answer made all the team members ecstatic.

There is an answer, indicating that the patient's consciousness has become somewhat awake, and the injected vaccine may have played a role.

Wu Bing asked a few more questions, but apart from the pain, there was no accurate answer to the other questions, like a half-dreaming drunk.

"A full body check, you give him a blood test."

Chen Mo motioned to the team members who came over to start taking blood tests on the patients on the fixed bed. The other two team members took off the patient's hospital gown, and the bruised purple on the skin immediately attracted everyone's attention.

This kind of silt purple, all over the skin of the body.

It's not a symptom of the Reedman virus, they've been dealing with the virus for months, that's for sure.

"It's like allergies, and it's like poisoning." Wu Bing said.

Chen Mo nodded, agreeing with Wu Bing's statement: "Have the patient used other drugs besides the injection tube vaccine?"

"No, I strictly inspect the glucose injected by the patient. No other medical staff has contacted the patient." The team member in charge of the guard must shake his head.

"Maybe it has something to do with the vaccine. Let's test the patient's blood first." Wu Bing said.

Twenty minutes later, when no results were found, Chen Mo and Wu Bing came out of the isolation room. As soon as the two came out, Shi Hongtu and others who were outside the isolation room couldn't wait to gather around.

They heard that the patient here in Chen Mo had an abnormal reaction, and immediately put down the research in their hands. It's just that Chen Mo and Wu Bing are in the isolation room, they are not easy to get in, they are all waiting outside.

"How is it? Is your research progressing?"

Shi Hongtu and several other immunology experts looked forward to the goggles.

The group that Chen Mo and Wu Bing belonged to had little hope because of their research on customized vaccines. But after a few times, the group's progress was beyond his imagination.

Now the patient has responded, and other groups, after injecting the experimental new drug, either go to nothing or die directly, and the progress is not great, so they also hope that Chen Mo can create a miracle.

"The vaccine was injected three days ago. Depending on the situation, it should have played a role. The patient's nonsense is no longer the same as before." Wu Bing said.

As soon as these words came out, Shi Hongtu and several other immunology experts were ecstatic.

The improvement of the patient's mental state means that the research is progressing. This is definitely the news they most want to hear now.

"However, the patient's body is abnormal, and it is uncertain whether it is allergy or poisoning. It is necessary to see the results of the blood test." Wu Bing added.

"Okay, okay, let's wait for the blood test results." Shi Hongtu said with some surprise.

Chen Mo and Wu Bing said goodbye to Shi Hongtu and entered the laboratory.

The team leaders of the other groups learned that Chen Mo's group had made progress and lost the mind to study, so they came and waited with a few people. The waiting time is always very long, more than two hours, which makes several people feel that several months have passed.

When several people were about to sit still, Wu Bing and Chen Mo came out of the laboratory.

Shi Hongtu's three steps turned into two, and he immediately walked up.

"The result is out?"

"Tell me." Wu Bing looked at Chen Mo, and his voice could not hear joy or sorrow.

"In the patient's blood, antibodies to the virus were detected, and these antibodies have an effect on the virus and can clear the virus."

Chen Mo's words, like a fairy tale of Tianyin, made everyone on the field ecstatic. Shi Hongtu was so excited that the wrinkles on his old face were shaking, and he almost didn't cry.

"But the vaccine didn't work out."

This sentence made everyone's joy disappear, and they all looked at Chen Mo, waiting for his explanation.

"We detected two toxic proteins in the patient's blood. It should be the potential toxic protein gene in the mRNA of the vaccine platform system. If this problem is not solved, the toxic protein will accumulate in the patient's body until a certain concentration, and the patient will die. "

"Then next?" Shi Hongtu asked.

"Next, we need to find these two toxic protein genes in the mRNA of the vaccine system platform, and find a way to replace these two toxic protein genes to relieve the toxicity of the vaccine, and the vaccine can be considered a success."

"Okay, I will immediately apply to the above, and call a few more genetic engineering experts to help you find the poison protein gene." Shi Hongtu said without hesitation, and his voice was extremely excited.

As long as these two toxic proteins are found and the vaccine is successfully detoxified, they will be able to put an end to this global bioterrorism.

They have seen the light of victory.
