Chapter 790 The Truth
There were not many words in the fax report, and the content was extremely simple. “At about 0:40 in the morning today, Niu Erwa and Zhang Dazhuang, the patients in w.a.n.gshan Village, suddenly lost their minds and broke the handcuffs and shackles, causing the expert Dong Anna to die on the spot.
“Later, the two rushed into the nearby Daw.a.n.g Village, causing many villagers to be injured. They were already killed by the armed police who had arrived. However, 18 bitten villagers have been infected with the zombie virus…”
After reading the report, all the people present took a deep breath. It was no wonder that Gao Haiming had asked them to attend a meeting overnight. The situation was too serious.
At first, only infected Niu Erwa had been infected, but now they had already suffered such a serious loss. If the 18 villagers couldn’t get effective treatment and all of them turned into zombies, the consequences would be unimaginable.
A small spark can start a great fire. If these viruses could not be cured, it would affect the entire Huaxia and even the whole world.
Seeing that everyone had finished reading the report, Gao Haiming said, “Everyone, you have seen that this emergency is very serious. It has already put a severe test on health and medical system.”
Sitting next to Gao Haiming was the new first deputy minister of the Ministry of Health, Zhang Lianqi. He was also the one who had just taken over the position from Shao Weimin yesterday.
He said, “Minister Gao, this matter looks very serious, but it’s actually very simple to deal with.
“The reason why such a serious situation happened was that we didn’t have a deep understanding of the second stage of this disease, so the isolation facilities were not strong enough. That was why such a tragedy happened.
“But it doesn’t matter now. Two patients in the second stage have been killed, and the remaining 18 patients are in the early stage. As long as Zhuo Bufan’s specialist team can cure them all, the problems will be solved.”
The others around him nodded frequently when they heard that. They felt that Zhang Lianqi’s words made sense.
As high-level officials of the Ministry of Health, it was impossible for them to have not seen Zhuo Bufan’s interview. They knew that the expert from M Country had developed a Super Antiviral Capsule, which had special effects on the initial state of the zombie virus.
Unexpectedly, Gao Haiming still shook his head with a heavy expression and said, “I have something to tell you. Zhuo Bufan has just treated the injured villagers. Unfortunately, the Super Antiviral Capsule in his hands has been ineffective, and the treatment has had no effect.”
This matter surprised him, and it was also a heavy blow.
“What? How could this be? Why is it ineffective?”
“That’s impossible. Yesterday, he said that it is 100% effective against this kind of zombie virus. Why did it suddenly stop working?”
Everyone was extremely surprised. If Zhuo Bufan’s medicine lost its effect, they would only have three days left.
According to the previous process of Niu Erwa’s illness, the 18 patients would enter the state of madness in the second stage in three days. At that time, it would be difficult to control.
Zhang Lianqi said, “Minister Gao, how could this be? Didn’t Zhuo Bufan just cure all the villagers who were infected yesterday? How could the medicine be ineffective so quickly? Could it be that the virus has mutated again?”
The higher-ups next to him felt that Zhang Lianqi’s speculation was somewhat reasonable. There would always be a mutation in the virus. However, such a big change in such a short period of time would put extremely heavy pressure on the future treatment and prevention.
Gao Haiming said, “I don’t know the exact reason yet…”
While he was talking, the secretary rushed in from the outside. “Minister Gao, there’s a call from the Huaxia Government Affairs Council just now. Let’s have a look at the top search videos.”
Gao Haiming was stunned. At this time, the high-level officials called him and asked him to watch a video. There must be something extraordinary about it.
He said to the secretary, “Since it’s an order from the Government Affairs Council, show it on the big screen and let everyone have a look.”
“Okay.”
The secretary answered and then began to operate it skillfully on the projector. Soon, the video was played on the big screen.
This video happened in the observation room of w.a.n.gshan Village. It was the process of Zhuo Bufan, Zhao Meng, and others treating Zhang Dazhuang.
The quality of the video was very good, and the sound was very clear. It could be seen that the recording equipment was very advanced. After boasting for a while, Zhuo Bufan injected the pink liquid into Zhang Dazhuang’s body.
Soon, Zhang Dazhuang woke up from his state of sleep, but he was not cured. Instead, he went crazy. Then the video violently vibrated, and the people in the isolation room fled out together.
Seeing this, Gao Haiming suddenly stood up from his seat and then sat down on the chair in low spirits.
Although the previous doc.u.ments were signed and approved by him, the contents were all written by Zhao Meng and Zhuo Bufan. At the same time, the materials from the Biological and Microbiology Research Center gave him sufficient evidence.
But now it seemed that things were not like that. At least the patient named Zhang Dazhuang went crazy because of Zhuo Bufan’s mistaken treatment.
Not only him, but everyone was confused. Didn’t Zhang Dazhuang go crazy because of Qin Haodong’s incorrect treatment? Why was the video in front of them completely different from that?
The video on the big screen changed and the second video began. In the video, Qin Haodong fed the Sanbao Blood-Cleansing Pill to a patient, and then the video sped up.
According to the expected time, after 25 minutes, the patient suddenly sat up from the bed and completely returned to normal.
“This… this doesn’t seem right. Didn’t Zhuo Bufan say that he cured these patients? Why is it this young doctor?”
“I know this young man. He is Qin Haodong, the doctor whose Physician’s Qualification Certificate was revoked. It seems that the reality is different from the report!”
Seeing this, many people looked at Gao Haiming in confusion. It was obvious that the previous decision of the Ministry of Health was wrong.
Gao Haiming’s face became more and more gloomy. He knew that he had been completely deceived by Zhao Meng and the others.
The screen switched again and the third video started, which was the video of Zhuo Bufan, Zhao Meng, and others discussing how to invert black and white and how to frame Qin Haodong.
After listening to the conversation of the three people, Gao Haiming slammed the table, and his face turned green with anger. He didn’t expect that his nephew didn’t tell the truth. The whole thing was reversed.
It was Zhuo Bufan who had caused Zhang Dazhuang’s illness again, and Qin Haodong was the one who had really cured the zombie virus.
Soon, the video was played. Although it was only seven or eight minutes, the truth of the whole thing was clearly expressed.
Everyone stopped talking and looked at Gao Haiming.
Gao Haiming sighed. At that moment, he seemed to have aged dozens of years.
He had always worked hard for the health industry, and he had strict self-restraint. He had a strong sense of justice. Otherwise, he would not have asked Zhao Meng to keep his ident.i.ty secret. He did not want his nephew to enjoy a little privilege because of their relations.h.i.+p.
Because of this, when he heard Zhao Meng’s lies, he almost exploded with anger, so he removed all of Qin Haodong’s t.i.tles and withdrew his Physician’s Qualification Certificate.
In his opinion, this kind of person didn’t deserve to be a doctor at all, but he didn’t expect that all of this was a scam. It was all made up by his good nephew.
For a moment, the whole conference room was silent. After a long time, Gao Haiming sighed again and said to Shao Weimin, “Shao, I was wrong this time. I thought that you appointed people through favoritism. I didn’t expect that I was being deceived.”
Shao Weimin said, “Minister Gao, everything else is a small matter. Now the most important thing is to ask Doctor Qin to go back and cure the villagers who are infected there.”
“You’re right. Since I’ve done something wrong, I should face it.” Gao Haiming then said to the secretary beside him, “Remember my words and do it right away.
“First, I will write an apology letter to Doctor Qin. Post it on the Internet and other media. I made such a big mistake because I was careless.”
After he said this, Shao Weimin and the others present were full of admiration in their hearts. He admitted his mistakes as soon as he found out about them. Although it was easy to say, there were not many people who could really do it.
Gao Haiming continued, “Second, release the notice in the name of the Ministry of Health: we will correct the previous mistakes and have decided to restore the t.i.tle of the National Grand Master of traditional Chinese medicine to Qin Haodong as well as his Physician’s Qualification Certificate.
“Third, all the t.i.tles that Zhuo Bufan has been granted are canceled and the prize money is to be taken back. At the same time, in addition to the one million yuan in prize money given by the Ministry of Health, I will pay 100,000 yuan as compensation to Doctor Qin.”
After that, he turned to Shao Weimin and said, “Minister Shao, I did make the wrong decision before. You are the most suitable person to be in charge of the medical department. From now on, you can take the position again.”
Shao Weimin said, “Don’t worry, Minister Gao. I will definitely do this job well.”
“You have to communicate with Doctor Qin well. No matter what, you have to let him help w.a.n.gshan Village get through this.”
Shao Weimin said, “Doctor Qin is broad-minded and a rare good doctor for the country and the people. I believe he won’t mind.”
Gao Haiming sighed and said, “I was wrong. I misunderstood such a good doctor. I’m going to the Government Administration Council now. I’ll tell my superiors about my mistakes and wait for them to deal with it.”
Shao Weimin said, “Minister Gao, everyone makes mistakes. Besides, you were deceived by others.”
This reminded Gao Haiming. He then turned to the secretary behind him and said, “Zhuo Bufan, Zhao Meng, Guo Tao, and Dong Anna… these four people made up the lie and turned the truth upside down. They framed Doctor Qin Haodong, which has already caused serious consequences.
“Dong Anna is dead, but the other three have to be handed over to the public security department to be dealt with. They must be punished severely.”
“I know, minister.” The secretary continued, “Minister, what about these videos on the Internet? Shall we contact the publicity department to get rid of them?”
Gao Haiming shook his head and said, “No, these are the truth. We should let the people in Huaxia know that. This is respect for the truth and for Doctor Qin.”
He then said to Shao Weimin, “Minister Shao, you should pay more attention to the matter of w.a.n.gshan Village. I’ll go to the Government Affairs Council to admit my mistakes now.”
An hour later, Gao Haiming’s personal apology letter and the report of the Ministry of Health of Huaxia appeared on the Internet. The truth was revealed.
After the treatment, everyone knew that it was Qin Haodong who had cured the special infectious diseases in Yundian Province. At the same time, the reputation of traditional Chinese medicine and the Medical Sage became famous again in Huaxia.
In Western countries, the result of the interview was also made public, so that people all over the world saw the magic of traditional Chinese medicine.
Zhuo Bufan and Zhao Meng had been in a state of panic ever since they realized that their Super Antiviral Capsule was ineffective. They did not stop until the police had put the cold handcuffs on their wrists.
It could be said that they were responsible for the deaths of Niu Erwa, Zhang Dazhuang, and Dong Anna. And they were especially to blame for the 18 patients who were still in a coma.
According to what they did and what the consequences were of that, they would most likely spend the rest of their lives in prison.
