Walking to the side of the critically ill patient, Li Haoyu examined his condition and quickly took out a few silver needles to try to reduce his temperature.

In fact, he could have cured the pneumonia epidemic directly. After all, it is not a difficult disease to cure, but the terrifying thing is that it is very contagious and develops very quickly. Most doctors are helpless against early pneumonia, which causes the disease to deteriorate rapidly and is difficult to treat until the patient dies.

After having a basic understanding of the two people's conditions, Li Haoyu examined several patients with mild to moderate conditions, and then immediately wrote out four prescriptions and gave them to Wang Yuyan, Ding Qiunan and others, and handed over an extra 100 yuan, reminding them: "Remember to ask for a receipt, the expenses need to be reimbursed."

"Okay, Master."

"Cai Xiaohui, what about us?" she asked.

"You come with us. We'll need a lot of medicinal herbs, so you have to help carry them," Li Haoyu instructed.

"no problem."

Li Haoyu called the factory director's office again and called Wang Xiushan. "Hello, senior, this is Li Haoyu."

"Li Haoyu, how's the progress over there?" Wang Xiushan asked as soon as he heard Li Haoyu speak.

"I'm fine, but I urgently need a large amount of medicinal materials. I have written four prescriptions for severe, moderate and mild symptoms, one of which is for preventive use. I hope you can purchase them quickly. This pneumonia is extremely serious, and the virus has spread to the entire capital. You should immediately contact your superiors to obtain large quantities of medicines from other places, otherwise it will cause a greater crisis." Li Haoyu said seriously.

Wang Xiushan nodded repeatedly and wrote down the prescriptions. After a brief study, Wang Xiushan understood the uniqueness of these prescriptions.

After the call, Li Haoyu immediately contacted Dean Nie again, told him about the pharmacy, and asked him to inform major medical institutions and, if possible, even release the news through official channels.

"I cannot agree. We are currently in a critical period of production. If we stop production and business, how will we complete the steelmaking task? Who will be responsible?" When Deputy Director Li heard Director Yang's decision to seal off the factory in the conference room, he immediately stood up to object.

"In the face of possible deaths caused by the epidemic, do you think you can take on this responsibility?" Director Yang asked.

"Can we make such a hasty decision based on just one diagnosis and treatment by Li Haoyu? What if something goes wrong?" Li Huaide questioned, believing that Director Yang handled the matter improperly and this was a chance to bring him down.

"Yes, Director Yang, we can't make a decision so casually. The factory has nearly 10,000 employees. If production stops, it will bring huge economic losses," another supervisor interrupted.

Li Huaide then suggested: "I think we should decide by voting, and those who agree to stop production should vote by raising their hands." He said with a sarcastic smile.

But in the end, only Director Yang and a few of his confidants supported closing the factory, while most people did not participate.

Deputy Director Li then said: "In this case, we will continue to operate the factory as usual. We can't let a minor cold cause panic."

In the infirmary, Ding Qiunan and his team had already purchased medicinal materials, spending a total of more than 100 yuan. Li Haoyu immediately prepared a decoction for the patients waiting there.

The preventive medicine provided by Li Haoyu was distributed to medical staff for drinking, and the seven or eight workers with more serious conditions were given medicine.

At noon, Li Haoyu wanted to know about the factory closure, but when he saw the crowds of people entering and leaving the gate, his anger was instantly ignited.

Li Haoyu rushed to Director Yang's office and said angrily: "Didn't I ask for the factory to be closed? What's the situation now? Why didn't you execute my order?"

Director Yang responded with an innocent look: "Comrade Li, I have organized a discussion among the cadres. Most of the cadres and Deputy Director Li disagree, and I can't force you. Your liver problem has not yet fully recovered, and I don't want to be too tough. After all, your life is still in my concern."

Hearing this, Li Haoyu became more resolute in his attitude: "Since the factory director doesn't care, there's nothing I can do. When your whole factory is infected, don't expect to come to me!" He slammed the door and left, muttering to himself in frustration.

Director Yang listened to Li Haoyu's words quietly, and was quite angry at the disrespect of this young man. Li Haoyu's behavior clearly showed no respect for him.

The door was pushed open again. Li Haoyu handed over the medical expense receipt and said to Director Yang, "This is the money for the workers' medical treatment. Please reimburse me." Taking the paper and pen, Director Yang wrote a reimbursement form and signaled Li Haoyu to go to the finance department for reimbursement.

After Li Haoyu received the money, he returned to the infirmary and returned the excess to Wang Yuyan, Ding Qiunan and others.

Wang Yuyan asked worriedly: "What should we do now? Do we have to work overtime?"

Li Haoyu said sarcastically: "What's the point of staying here? Those guys are turning a deaf ear to me and will never stop working. If the plague spreads, someone will surely suffer. It's better to get off work on time tonight."

Ding Qiunan was puzzled and asked, "How can you be so indifferent? This concerns the lives of countless people."

Nie Xiaoqian said solemnly: "It's not just thousands. If it spreads, the entire capital will face a serious epidemic."

"There's no need to worry about so much. Doctors can only do their best to treat the patient. Remember, doctors never ask others for help unless they are powerless. Instead, doctors will feel pity for patients who come to them for help." Li Haoyu reminded them firmly.

The patient looked at Li Haoyu, his eyes revealing worry and expectation as he asked: "Doctor, what should we do next?"

"You have already taken the medicine I prescribed for you. Don't be nervous. You see, their fevers have gone down, right? Take this prescription away and get the medicine according to the dosage above." Li Haoyu comforted them.

"Thank you so much, Dr. Li." people said gratefully.

"Doctor Li, my cough has stopped after taking your medicine. It's a miracle!" another person exclaimed.

"I just feel a little sleepy, and I don't feel the same discomfort as before," added another patient.

At the same time, people in several factories, units and schools in the city began to cough and have fever, and the situation spread rapidly.

Many patients have gone to hospitals, which are overcrowded.

As soon as he heard the bell for the end of get off work, Li Haoyu asked the patients to go home directly. He prepared extra medicine for the two seriously ill patients and pointed out that according to the instructions of the medicine, there would be no major problems.

After escorting Ding Qiunan home, he found that she had no bicycle. Although he wanted to buy one for her, she refused.

After leaving a few doses of preventive medicine for her parents, Li Haoyu returned to Yard 95.

When I returned to the hospital, I found He Yushui with a worried look on his face: "Brother Li Haoyu, the school may be temporarily closed due to the flu. Many students are sick. It seems to be pneumonia, and it may be contagious."

"Don't worry about this. The elixir I gave you yesterday should be able to prevent virus infection. But you should stay at home now. It may not be safe to go out." Li Haoyu explained.

"Is it so serious?" He Yushui looked surprised.

"It is quite serious. But we have already reported the case to the higher authorities and it's up to them to handle it," he said.

This is all he can do for now, and he can do nothing about the rest. Sometimes good words of persuasion don’t get the right people to act. He thought that closing the steel mill would help control the epidemic, solve the problem, and wrap things up as soon as possible.

The next day, the steel plant employees' coughing and fever became more severe, and many people were unable to go to work.

A group of people rushed into the infirmary early in the morning, several of whom had severe fever.

"Master, what should we do? There are more and more sick people now, and our small infirmary can't cope with it at all." Ding Qiunan said worriedly.

Li Haoyu stood up, looked at the team, and said, "People with a mild cough can go to the hospital. They have special decoctions prepared there. Those with a high fever can stay. The rest can go to the door of the medical room to get the prescription and prepare the medicine themselves or go to the pharmacy to buy decoctions."

"Doctor Li, please treat them. Li Si and the others were cured yesterday. We went to the hospital specially but we may not be cured and it would be a waste of money." A worker pleaded.

Others agreed with this suggestion.

"Please keep quiet. There are not enough medicinal materials and the space is narrow. We medical staff are overwhelmed. There are hundreds of people here and we won't be able to see them all until dark. Why can they stay but we can't?" At this time, someone in the crowd questioned, and a man named Jia Dongxu was coughing.

Yi Zhonghai was also infected and kept coughing.

Sha Zhu was not sick. Yesterday, He Yushui asked Li Haoyu for several doses of medicine and gave them to Sha Zhu's family. Li Chunhua followed He Yushui's instructions and quickly boiled the medicine for the whole family, and each family member took a mouthful.

"Please calm down, continuing to make noise will not help." Li Haoyu scolded.

At this time, Director Yang and Secretary Li walked into the infirmary wearing masks.

Director Yang strode forward and asked, "Doctor Li, what's the situation now?"

Li Haoyu replied unhappily: "Can't you see clearly now? I have already told you to close the factory and conduct inspections. It is because of the improper decision-making of the top management that the epidemic has spread. We are now in urgent need of a large number of drugs, and the factory needs to purchase them at its own expense."

"What should we do now?" Director Yang was very worried.

Li Haoyu said: "Immediately announce a full suspension of production and a holiday, and notify the Ministry of Industry to send people over to form a professional medical team for isolation and treatment."

"This..." The people in the factory were a little hesitant.

"You can call the Ministry of Industry to confirm their opinions. As a doctor, this is all I can do. By the way, I have posted the prescriptions at the door. Please copy them and take them home to prepare the medicine. It should be okay for you to notify them to take a holiday," he added.

Director Yang suddenly became happy and shouted: "Dear colleagues, listen carefully! Doctor Li's prescription has been posted at the door. Please copy it down and prepare the medicine according to his instructions. Let's take a rest today."

After saying this, Director Yang hurried back to his office and quickly contacted the Ministry of Industry.

The Ministry of Health had already given instructions and immediately agreed to and supported the arrangement of stopping work for treatment. Immediately afterwards, the Propaganda Department also announced the news to all employees. Work inside and outside the factory was quickly carried out, and workers flocked to the infirmary and lined up to receive prescriptions.

The prescription quickly spread, and Li Haoyu treated several seriously ill patients with high temperatures, feeding them specially prepared soups and medicines, which allowed them to sleep peacefully.

With the full cooperation of Director Yang, the situation became much more orderly. However, all pharmacies in downtown Beijing cleared out their stocks of medicinal materials in just a few days.

The number of inpatients in the hospital continued to increase, and a large number of people recovered after receiving Li Haoyu's prescription. The secondary infection rate of the cured patients was greatly reduced, which verified the effectiveness of the prescription. Immediately, the Ministry of Health widely distributed Li Haoyu's prescription and required street offices at all levels to publish it publicly.

The department immediately dispatched large quantities of medicinal materials from other regions to supplement the supply in Beijing. Although some people died due to their old age and the epidemic could not be controlled in time, the overall situation was stabilized due to Li Haoyu's medicine.

In order to avoid being disturbed, Li Haoyu turned off the system's sound prompts. Merit points continued to flow in, but he no longer paid attention to the number.

The popularity of masks has effectively suppressed pneumonia. Over the past two weeks, the epidemic situation has gradually improved, and the decision-makers have breathed a sigh of relief. Li Haoyu's quick response, prescriptions and reminders saved many lives, for which he won recognition from the Ministry of Health and the Ministry of Industry, as well as a bonus of 200 yuan and various commendation certificates.
