University Doctor and His Fragile Patients-Chapter 306 - 253: Tuberculosis? The Secretary Sends Two More Buses!

Chapter 306: Chapter 253: Tuberculosis? The Secretary Sends Two More Buses!

Chen Mu started to have a headache: "Student, someone will take you for a lung CT in a while. Once the CT results are out and tuberculosis is confirmed."

"I will issue you a School Hospital Referral Form, and have the school ambulance send you to the infectious disease hospital."

Jia Yan nodded, "Okay..."

As soon as he nodded halfway.

Jia Yan suddenly looked up: "Infectious disease hospital? Dr. Chen, is my tuberculosis considered an infectious disease?"

Chen Mu gritted his teeth: "What do you think!"

"Do you and your roommates usually use the same utensils?"

Jia Yan began to feel guilty: "Well, you know, guys are a bit rough..."

"Sometimes our own takeout hasn’t arrived yet, but a roommate’s has, and it’s normal to take their chopsticks and have a couple of bites, right."

Chen Mu held his forehead: "Normal..."

"It just depends on how robust your roommates’ bodies are. If they’re unlucky, once you’re at the infectious disease hospital, you might all continue being roommates there."

—

"It’s undeniable, the infection rate of tuberculosis is quite high."

"Our school had a similar case years ago, and the school was so worried that they sent all the students in the entire dormitory building for CT scans!"

"School: You crazy kids! The school’s budget is already tight, can’t you be less reckless..."

"If I were in the same dorm building as him, I’d probably already have the urge to hit someone!"

"Thinking of how cocky he was at the school health office door just now makes me want to laugh. In a few days, he could be the butt of jokes all over school!"

"Being potentially infectious to others, and still so arrogant! Even the stray dogs at school might spit at him!"

"..."

—

"Is it that serious..."

Listening to Chen Mu’s explanation.

Jia Yan couldn’t help but shrink his neck, belatedly starting to wimp out.

Chen Mu, however, couldn’t be bothered to continue communicating with this guy.

He waved his hand impatiently.

He pointed to the group of white coats in front, "Find one that looks pleasing to you, and let them take you for a lung CT."

Jia Yan had just started walking in one direction.

When he saw.

The group of white coats in front of him all simultaneously reached into their white coat pockets and took out masks, putting them on!

Jia Yan: "..."

Was he that scary?

Alright!

His tuberculosis is an infectious disease, it might really be that scary...

—

Seeing Jia Yan being taken by a white coat to do a basic check-up.

Chen Mu found Secretary Lu’s number in his phone book.

As soon as the call connected.

Secretary Lu’s somewhat irritable voice came through the phone’s speaker.

"Dr. Chen! Whenever you call me, it’s never good news!"

"Don’t tell me! Something happened at the school again!"

"Forget it, I should just head to the hospital now!"

"Let me see if the ICU next to the principal is empty, I’ll go be his neighbor!"

Facing a room full of amused glances, Chen Mu was also quite helpless.

He sighed lightly: "Secretary, how about this, if you help me get this resolved, I’ll personally take you to the ICU?"

Upon finishing his sentence.

On the other end of the phone, Secretary Lu exploded, "Pah, pah, pah! Say ’pah, pah, pah’ quickly for me!"

"It’s so inauspicious, I’m still very fit, why would I need to go to the ICU!"

Chen Mu, as if coaxing a child, said, "Pah, pah, pah!"

Upon hearing Secretary Lu’s cold snort on the other end.

Chen Mu’s expression also became more serious, "Secretary Lu, the school hospital just received a patient suspected of having tuberculosis."

As soon as Secretary Lu heard the words "tuberculosis," his tone became more solemn, "How far is your suspicion from confirmation?"

Chen Mu: "Once the lung CT results are out, it can be confirmed."

"Hiss!" From Secretary Lu’s side came a sharp intake of breath.

A moment later.

Secretary Lu’s voice rang out again from the phone, "I remember years ago, a neighboring school had a case. They emptied the entire building of students and sent them all to the hospital for checks at that time."

"In addition, during the period the students were sent for checks, the school also hired a specialized team to disinfect the entire building."

At this point in the conversation.

Secretary Lu earnestly asked, "Dr. Chen, from a professional doctor’s perspective, does our school also need to take it to this extent?"

Chen Mu nodded, "It is necessary! My suggestion is that the patient’s roommates and classmates, as well as some students who usually have close contact, all be sent to the infectious disease hospital for thorough checks."

"For other students in the dorm building, liaise with the community hospital to organize their personnel, and quickly have these students undergo comprehensive checks."

With every sentence Chen Mu said.

Secretary Lu would reply with an "Hmm," indicating his approval for what Chen Mu said.

Chen Mu rubbed his forehead, "The biggest issue is that we currently do not know if other students at the school have already been infected with tuberculosis."

"If any have, we don’t know how many more they might infect."

"Secretary Lu, to play it safe, I have a small suggestion."

Upon hearing Chen Mu’s familiar opening.

On the phone, Secretary Lu felt his heart almost stop beating.

He said irritably, "What small suggestion? Just say you have a costly suggestion!"

Chen Mu chuckled awkwardly.

Secretary Lu’s impatient voice sounded again, "Go ahead with your suggestion, and I’ll consider it..."

Chen Mu: "Starting today, for the next three days, the school hospital will offer lung CT scans to all students unconditionally."

"Whether to undergo the scan is entirely voluntary."

Secretary Lu: "Approved, I’ll communicate with the teachers at the school, you organize the personnel at the school hospital, and I’ll arrange for supplies to be sent to the school hospital."

"As for the funds, I’ll think of a way."

Chen Mu: "Thank you, Secretary."

Secretary Lu: "Don’t thank me. Just make sure you don’t call me in the future, and I’ll thank you!"

—

"Secretary Lu: So annoying, whenever you call it’s never anything good!"

"What! Is Hai City University making such a huge gesture, giving lung CTs to all students?"

"Stop being surprised, do you know how our Hai University teachers persuade those fragile students in the group to go to the school hospital for CTs?"

"Our counselor said a lung CT done in a hospital costs three to four hundred bucks!"

"They said when it comes to health checks, fragile students don’t even pay attention."

"But when it comes to getting a bargain, I’m lining up right away!"

"Wow! Hai University’s teachers really have those fragile students in the palm of their hand..."

"..."

—

Seeing many white coats still looking at him in the room.

Chen Mu said, "All the medical students from Hai City Medical University, go and help out at the CT room."

A white coat raised their hand slightly, "Dr. Chen, there’s not enough space at the CT room for so many people."

Chen Mu was speechless, "Can’t you move a table, sit at the entrance, and explain the students’ lung CTs to them?"

"With the lung CT scans for the whole school, there will be at least tens of thousands of them."

"Do you think you can learn something from reviewing so many lung CT scans?"

Listening to Chen Mu’s words.

The white coat who just raised their hand almost stood at attention and saluted, "Dr. Chen, I understand, I’ll go act on it now!"

In less than a minute.

All the white coats from Hai City Medical University disappeared from the school health office.

Leaving behind a group of students of traditional Chinese medicine, enviously watching others leave happily.

They turned their hopeful eyes to Chen Mu: "Dr. Chen, I think if we go to see the lung CTs, we could learn something new too."

Chen Mu didn’t even bother to respond.

He pointed at Shen Ting, who was sitting there, now completely behaved, "Those who have taken the pulse, go find a piece of paper and pen each, and write down your diagnosis of her."

Moments later.

A group of white coats handed over their "assignments" to Chen Mu.

Chen Mu looked through each piece.

"Everyone submitted similar answers, thinking there is a problem with Shen Ting’s liver based on her pulse."

"Then in your opinion, how should the issue with Shen Ting’s liver damage be resolved?"

A white coat enthusiastically raised their hand: "Dr. Chen, I think we could prescribe traditional Chinese medicine to regulate it!"

Hearing this. 𝙛𝓻𝒆𝒆𝒘𝙚𝓫𝙣𝙤𝒗𝙚𝓵.𝙘𝙤𝙢

Chen Mu almost couldn’t hold it in, "That’s a great answer! Then can you guess how the issue with her liver damage occurred?"
