Reborn in Brazil As a Plutocrat

  Chapter 280 Visiting the Hospital

  If you want to solve the spread of the disease, it is of course not enough to rely on medical examination and treatment within the army.

  Outside sources of transmission should of course also be rectified.

  Early the next morning, Fang Lang asked Mayor Ewald Dursley to inspect the medical and health facilities in Natal.

   Driving through the streets of downtown Natal again, Fang Lang was very surprised.

   No wonder Mr. President praised the construction of Natal last time.

   During the current period of Natal and Fang Lang's military administration, there have indeed been huge changes.

  The main street has been turned into a four-lane concrete road, and tall landscape trees have been planted on the side of the road, and the muddy and dilapidated appearance can no longer be seen.

There is only one hospital in Natal, which is on the main street in the city center. When Fang Lang and Mayor Ewald Dursley came to the entrance of the hospital, they found that the hospital was a little deserted, and it was not as crowded as Fang Lang expected scene.

  The arrival of the two did not attract the attention of the hospital staff.

   "Your Excellency, this is our only hospital in Natal. It was established by Dr. Basco Tapia. After nearly 30 years of development, it has reached its current scale."

  Fang Lang carefully looked at the hospital in front of him, which was about the same size as the township hospital in his previous life. It consisted of four rows of bungalows forming a small courtyard.

  There are four or five tall trees in the yard, and there are some low shrubs scattered under the trees, which seem to be well-groomed.

  There is a bench under each big tree, and there are four or five men and women who look like sick patients scattered on the bench, looking at Fang Lang and his party boredly.

  Hearing Mayor Ewald Dursley's introduction, Fang Lang didn't express any opinion, just nodded, and continued to walk inside.

  After entering the gate of the hospital, there is a registered toll office on the left, where a middle-aged Caucasian woman is sorting out the receipts in her hand.

   On the right is a place that looks like a pharmacy, but the area is less than ten square meters. A white man in his thirties is holding a book and reading.

   Walking through the room, you can see the corridors on the left and right sides near the yard. Along the corridors, you can see rooms one by one. Some people's names are pasted on the rooms, which seem to be the names of doctors.

  But Fang Lang couldn't see the name of the department, which surprised Fang Lang. Could it be that the current Natal Hospital doesn't even have divisions?

  Walking all the way, Fang Lang counted ten doctors' offices in total.

   It seems that this is all the doctors in this hospital. No wonder there were not enough manpower to arrange a physical examination.

   Fortunately, although the conditions of this hospital are simple, the hygienic environment is well managed.

  The ground and the house are hardened with cement.

  The last row of houses has more than ten rooms, and each room has three beds. It seems that this is the inpatient department of the hospital.

   There are thirty beds in total.

   After everyone walked around the hospital, Mayor Ewald Dursley took Fang Lang and knocked on the door of a room with the dean's office.

   A slightly old voice came from inside and said:

   "Come in!"

  Mayor Ewald Dursley pushed open the door, went in and greeted the other party with a smile:

   "Long time no see Dr. Basco Tapia."

  Following the opened door, Fang Lang saw an old white man in his sixties with gray hair.

  The old man is not tall, with a pair of glasses on the bridge of his nose, he looks like a scholar.

   "Mr. Mayor, is there something uncomfortable?"

  The old man pushed his eyes on the bridge of his nose and said.

  Mayor Ewald Dursley waved his hands again and again:

   "Dr. Basco Tapia, I don't have any discomfort. Today I mainly accompany General Fang to come to your side to have a look."

   Said and moved away.

  Fang Lang hurried forward, nodded to the old man and said:

   "Hello, Doctor Basco Tapia, I'm Fang Lang!"

  The old man looked Fang Lang up and down and said:

   "Are you Director Fang from the naval base?"

   Fang Lang didn't expect that the other party had heard of him.

   Hastily smiled and nodded:

   "Yes, Dr. Basco Tapia, I am the chief of the Natal Naval Base."

  After hearing Fang Lang's answer, the old man stood up directly from the stool, stretched out his right hand, and was about to shake hands with Fang Lang.

   With a trembling mouth, he said:

   "General Fang, thank you! Thank you for avenging my granddaughter.

  If it weren't for you, I'm afraid I would never find the murderer who killed my granddaughter in my life. "

  Fang Lang was taken aback by these words, and even Mayor Ewald Dursley was at a loss.

  Dr. Basco Tapia saw the reaction of the two, and quickly explained:

  “My granddaughter disappeared when he was sixteen years old, and we called the police to search for it, but nothing came of it.

  A few months after the general in front arrested the Yakubu family, I only learned about it from a policeman.

  My granddaughter was also harmed by that old **** Yakubu.

  My poor granddaughter! Only sixteen years old!

  That **** who should go to hell, how did he do it! "

   While talking, the old man started to cry.

   Fang Lang was at a loss for a while, and hurriedly comforted the elderly with Mayor Ewald Dursley.

  After a long while, Dr. Basco Tapia finally stopped his excitement.

   said with a trembling voice:

   "General Fang, did you feel uncomfortable when you came here today?"

  It seems that the first reaction of a doctor when seeing a person is to ask if there is something wrong with the body!

  Fang Lang shook his head with a smile and said:

   "Dr. Tapia, I came here today mainly to learn about the medical strength of our hospital, especially the ability to diagnose and treat infectious diseases.

   Recently my military medical officer told me that many of my men were infected with syphilis and gonorrhea.

  This will have a very serious impact on the combat effectiveness of our troops.

  Our army has already arranged for everyone to undergo medical examinations, and treated all infected persons intensively.

  However, the infected people outside must also be controlled and treated. As the only hospital in Natal, I want to come to understand the situation. "

  As soon as he heard Fang Lang's words, Dr. Basco Tapia understood what Fang Lang meant.

   directly opened the mouth and said:

   "General Fang is here for those sick girls!

  According to what I have learned, the number of girls infected is very large. Fortunately, the government now arranges for girls to go to the hospital for regular checkups, so we found out in a timely manner.

  Have started treatment for all the girls.

   If the girls have not recovered, we will not issue health certificates to them.

please do not worry! "

  Fang Lang always felt something was wrong when he heard what the other party said. What do you mean I came here for the sick girls.

   This is not my infection! Why is it so awkward in my ears!

   After thinking about it, it was not time to worry about these details, so he nodded and continued to ask:

   "Are there any difficulties with treatment?"

  Dr. Basco Tapia nodded and said:

   "The best drug to treat these diseases is penicillin, but the price of this drug is too expensive.

   So, some girls can't afford the treatment at all.

  You can only choose to use the old treatment plan for treatment, which may take a little longer. "

  This is considered normal. The Fangyuan Group manufactures penicillin itself, so it is clear that the production of penicillin was difficult in the absence of chemical synthesis, and the high price is also a normal phenomenon.

  Fang Lang is not a saint. It is impossible for him to provide penicillin to these girls for free when he heard that some girls could not pay for penicillin.

  The doctor said that the old treatment plan can still be cured, so there is no problem.

  Soldiers are of course using penicillin directly. After all, the cost of medicine is paid by the military expenditure of the Ministry of Defense. This is also a business!

"Ah That's good.

  Are there many people other than these girls infected? "

   After all, it's not just soldiers who take care of the girl's business, there are also many guests outside!

  Dr. Basco Tapia thought for a while before saying:

   "As far as the current situation is concerned, not many other people come to the hospital for medical treatment.

  I guess it hasn't attracted attention yet.

   It is also possible that someone has no money for medical treatment. "

  Hearing this, Fang Lang hurriedly said to Mayor Ewald Dursley:

   "This is not acceptable, it is easy to cause repeated infection.

  Maybe we should spread the word to everyone about the dangers of these diseases, and let these girls learn to use safety measures.

   Post some reminder notices on the entertainment street, so that the public can pay attention to it and seek medical treatment in time.

   Avoid further spread of the disease. "

  Mayor Ewald Dursley can be said to obey Fang Lang's words now. After all, this is Mr. President's guest, so he still has to curry favor with him.

   hurriedly said:

   "No problem, I asked the health department to post notices on Entertainment Street, and spread the dangers of these diseases and early symptoms in newspapers, so that more people can be detected and treated early."

   These things are originally the work of government departments. Fang Lang discovered the situation in the army and reported it to the government, even if he had completed his task.

  Today, he and Mayor Ewald Dursley met to visit the hospital together. Of course, it was not purely for the purpose of investigating the spread and treatment of diseases outside.

  The more important purpose is to investigate the medical market and see after the establishment of a military hospital in Natal.

   Is there room for other hospitals to survive.

  If it is not suitable, after Lilith graduates, she will have to consider whether to let her work in a military hospital or find another place to build a hospital.

   "Dr. Basco Tapia, Mr. Mayor told me that you are the only hospital in Natal, but when I first came in, I found that there were not many patients in the hospital. Why is that?"

  In Fang Lang's perception, the hospital has never been short of patients, but today he did not see many patients in Tapia Hospital.

  Even if Natal is just a small city with a population of less than 200,000, there should not be only such a few patients!

   Could it be that the locals in Brazil believe in witch doctors more?

  If this is the case, I have to consider whether it is necessary for me to let the military hospital open to the outside world.

   It's not that they are afraid of competing with Tapia Hospital for patients, but that such a small source of disease is simply not enough to support the development of a large hospital.

  After hearing what Fang Lang said, Dr. Basco Tapia glanced at Fang Lang with a strange expression and said:

   "General Fang, it takes a lot of money to see a doctor in the hospital.

  Our hospital has been operating in Natal for thirty years.

   At the beginning, it was just my private clinic. The scale has never been large, and the people who can come to the hospital to see a doctor are also some dignitaries.

   Even within the first two years of opening, not a single non-Caucasian patient visited my clinic.

   In recent years, after everyone's economic conditions have improved, the number of patients who can come to the hospital to see a doctor has gradually increased.

   It was four years ago that my hospital expanded to its current size! "

   Such an answer is reasonable and unexpected.

   "Where will other people go for treatment when they are sick?"
