Dengue Fever
"It was transmitted by Aedes mosquitoes."
Hearing Lin Chen's words of certainty, everyone present was stunned.
Lin Chen did not do anything. He only took her pulse. How could he be so sure?
Xia Lan, in particular, looked at Lin Chen with anger.
She had thought that if Lin Chen dared to say that he had used his pulse to eliminate the possibility of mosquito infection, she would teach him a lesson.
But now, this guy had actually confirmed it.
He told himself that it was a disease transmitted by Aedes mosquitoes.
"What makes you so sure?"
After asking, Xia Lan added,""Don't try to fool me. The pulse feeling of traditional Chinese medicine doesn't have the function of determining the route of infection.”
"It doesn't have this function."
Lin Chen admitted frankly,"But it can tell me your physical condition and let me know what illness you have."”
" You've confirmed the disease?"
Xia Lan's eyes widened as she looked at Lin Chen suspiciously.
It wasn't like she hadn't seen outstanding military doctors before. For example, Shi Dafan, the medic from Lone Wolf Group B, was also a Chinese medicine practitioner and his medical skills were quite good.
Not only did he know first-aid methods, but he also knew how to treat many other diseases.
However, she had never seen someone like Lin Chen who could determine the plague in just half a minute.
Not to mention military doctors, even those old Chinese doctors outside might not be able to do it.
Plague was not a single disease, but a combination of many diseases. There would be many different reactions.
A doctor with excellent medical skills would definitely not make a hasty conclusion like Lin Chen.
Lin Chen's gaze was calm. He still did not choose to answer Xia Lan's question. Instead, he asked again,"Did you have a high fever two days ago? Also, did he bleed from different parts of his body in the past two days? His gums, nostrils, and below?”
Xia Lan was a little stunned. She had never been asked such a straightforward question before.
Fire Phoenix and the others were also a little stunned. They only knew that Lin Chen's medical skills were brilliant when he cured Tang Xiaoxiao's snake venom.
However, he did not expect Lin Chen to ask such a question…ferociously!
Tian Guo and An Ran were still calm. They had seen this scene when they accompanied Ye Cunxin to treat her menstrual cramps.
Especially An Ran, who had been asked similar questions by Lin Chen alone.
After recovering from her daze, Xia Lan looked at Lin Chen with shock.
Then, under the shocked gazes of the Fire Phoenix ladies, Xia Lan nodded at Lin Chen.""You're right. There are indeed these problems.”
She did not want to admit that there was something wrong with her lower body in front of the Fire Phoenix and the others.
However, she was not the only one who was sick. All the villagers in Lande Village were sick as well.
She could not deny Lin Chen's words just because of her shyness and deny the villagers 'hope of getting treatment.
Lin Chen's gaze did not change at all. Before he came, he had already predicted that the villagers of Round Stronghold might suffer from several kinds of diseases.
Now, he was just confirming his thoughts.
"Then is our illness serious? How long would it take to die from the infection? Can you cure it?"
Xia Lan fired off three questions in a row. However, this time, there was no doubt in her eyes when she looked at Lin Chen. Instead, she was a little nervous.
After all, this was a plague.
In terms of treating the plague, almost all countries chose western medicine to use antibiotics.
As for Lin Chen, he was only a Chinese doctor. Even if he knew about the plague, he might not be able to cure it.
Looking at Xia Lan, who no longer showed off her sharpness and had a feminine expression, Lin Chen calmly comforted her,"
"You are infected with the Dengue virus, a sub-tropical virus transmitted by Aedes mosquitoes. The peak season of infection is from July to September.”
" The clinical features are sudden onset, high fever, pain in the muscles, bone marrow, and joints all over the body, and extreme fatigue. Rashes and bleeding symptoms will appear in the middle and later stages of the illness. It feels very scary, but the mortality rate is very low, less than one in ten thousand.”
Hearing this, Xia Lan heaved a sigh of relief. The death rate was less than one in ten thousand. The death rate of such a plague was indeed very low.
Moreover, this way, she would not have to make things difficult for Lin Chen, a traditional Chinese medicine doctor. She could wait with the villagers for the medical expert team to arrive or for the country to send the vaccine directly.
However, just as she was thinking about this, Lin Chen happened to answer her third question,""Dengue fever is very simple to treat. I just need to go to the village to check on the situation and determine the amount of herbs I need to collect.”
Although he had already confirmed the condition of Lande Village and considered this mission completed, Lin Chen did not want to go back just like that.
Putting aside the fact that he was a doctor with medical ethics, he also wanted to see what kind of reward the system would give him for curing Lande Village with traditional Chinese medicine.
