Chapter 827 People in the Future Can Take Cheap Medicine
Xu Qiu nodded calmly.
Wu Yuegui, however, could not calm down... Since she became ill, she had heard this name from her fellow patients more than once.
Some time ago, she even saw Xu Qiu on the news broadcast.
He developed the Seven Star Tablets, priced at 57 yuan, but the effect is much better than Gan An Ning!
In the eyes of patients like Wu Yuegui, this kind of person is no different from the God of Medicine.
"Doctor Xu, Doctor Xu..." Wu Yuegui was speechless. She stood up excitedly and held Xu Qiu's hand tightly. Her old eyes could not help but moisten.
Xu Qiu held Wu Yuegui with both hands and said, "The Seven Star Tablets are still in the clinical trial stage. Except for the volunteers, they cannot be taken by other patients, and it is even more impossible for them to appear on the market as a drug..."
He explained why he brought generic drugs instead of the self-developed Seven Star Tablets.
Wu Yuegui asked with hope: "Doing experiments, I know, I heard from the group members..."
After that, she took out a smartphone with a broken screen.
Mo Wan recognized the phone. A brand new one only cost more than 400 yuan. A phone of this quality might cost at most a few dozen yuan... But despite this, it was one of the most valuable items on the old man's body.
Wu Yuegui hadn't spoken to anyone for a long time. When she saw Xu Qiu, she started to mutter.
"This phone was given to me by an old sister in the village. I also added her WeChat account, but she passed away at the end of last year and I can't talk to her anymore."
After that, she showed everyone the WeChat account interface.
Xu Qiu took a look.
The broken screen showed the chat interface.
The font of the phone was very large, and there were several short conversations.
The other party's note was "Sister Xiuying".
Sister Xiuying: Good sister, I may have to leave.
Wu Yuegui: I can't bear it.
There was no response after that. Wu Yuegui's "sister" was forgotten.
Everyone present was silent.
For the older generation, the term "sister" is very important. The two said goodbye with thousands of words, and the last word was "I can't bear to leave."
When Wu Yuegui exited the chat interface, Xu Qiu and others even saw Wu Yuegui saying goodbye to many old friends.
The words they sent were almost the same, nothing more than "I have cancer, I will die soon", there was no fear of death, only calmness.
"Look, the patient group is still discussing you." Wu Yuegui happily showed the content in the group, with an expression like a child.
Xu Qiu also saw that in addition to some encouraging words in the group, there were people asking for specific information about the Seven Star Tablets from time to time.
But more people expressed sadness.
"It's a pity that I can't take it anymore..."
"I heard from the volunteers who got the drug trial qualification that this drug is very effective and only costs 57 yuan, but by the time it passes the clinical trial, we will be dead."
"Why can't it be faster? I believe in Dr. Xu's character. I want to take Qixing Tablets!"
"Alas, it's so good for patients in the future. Living in the era when Dr. Xu develops new drugs, they can take cheap liver cancer drugs, but I never see the future opportunities."
"..."
After reading the chat records, Xu Qiu felt very heavy.
Even in the hospital, there are deaths and rebirths, and ordinary people don't need to face death directly.
But in this group, death has become a daily routine and something that can be discussed at any time.
This is just the current situation of the patient group.
A large number of patients don't even have smartphones, and can't find people with the same disease to comfort each other. They can only curl up in a corner of a village and wait for death alone.
"Are these people taking Gan Anning?" Xu Qiu asked.
Wu Yuegui sighed and said, "If we don't take Liver Anning, we can only wait for death... And Liver Anning is not something you can take whenever you want. I and many others haven't taken the medicine for more than half a month. Liver Anning is also expensive, one dollar and five cents per piece, and it only lasts for half a day at a time. If it hurts a lot, it will stop hurting. I am most afraid of the pain from time to time."
Mo Wan and Gao Pei'an were stunned for a moment, feeling unbelievable.
Liver cancer is a malignant tumor of the digestive system. In the middle and late stages, the pain will be very severe.
Even the most powerful opioid painkillers will not have a particularly great effect. The root cause is still to attack the liver tumor itself.
They always thought that Wu Yuegui was taking Liver Anning on time.
But now it seems that she didn't take the medicine at all. During so many visits, she seemed to be calm, but she was enduring severe pain?
Cancer pain...
Xu Qiu wanted to help Wu Yuegui, but he was powerless.
The drugs that can work are all controlled drugs, and it is impossible to prescribe them to Wu Yuegui casually.
All he can do is to provide generic drugs.
"Try this medicine first. If it works, I will send two boxes every month."
After chatting for more than ten minutes, Xu Qiu got to know the basic situation and was ready to leave.
Wu Yuegui was stunned and said hurriedly: "Doctor Xu, are you leaving now?"
Xu Qiu said: "People in the patient group can apply to Linyi and designated tertiary hospitals in various places. I will also open as many places as possible for the trial of Qixing Tablets... for free."
Hearing this, Wu Yuegui's face showed a happy expression and repeated: "Great, great!"
Xu Qiu smiled and turned to leave, but Wu Yuegui stopped him again.
"Doctor Xu, do you want me to testify for you?"
Xu Qiu paused and said, "It's not to testify for us, but to let Gan An Ning receive the punishment it deserves. The sequelae are irreversible, but we should at least give them a chance to get compensation."
Wu Yuegui lowered her head and said, "They said they would give me two million and provide free medicine to all my patients... Doctor Xu, only you can let everyone take medicine, I believe you."
Xu Qiu felt that the burden on him was heavy all of a sudden.
He said seriously, "Okay, I will not disappoint you and many other patients."
"Doctor Xu, will people in the future be able to take cheap medicine?"
"After the Qixing tablets complete clinical trials, there will no longer be sky-high-priced medicines of thousands or tens of thousands of yuan. Ordinary people who have liver cancer no longer need to sell their houses and cars, and can live well."
"I really envy people in the future..."
...
On the way back, there was silence in the car.
Mo Wan, Tong Yan and Shi Lian all lowered their heads, thinking.
The three of them have different identities and statuses. Except for Tong Yan, the other two have very good family conditions.
However, even for Tong Yan, she only interacted with various elites in society and rarely saw these hidden corners.
It turned out that in the same world, some people bought a house just because they were in a good mood, while some people were worried about a pill of 1.5 yuan per pill. That pill might require him to exchange it for a full meal.
