Chapter 97 Construction of Affiliated Areas (4)
To be fair, Nantie Company has spent a lot of effort on the construction of its affiliated areas, and has adopted a large number of domestic latest technologies, latest scientific research results and cutting-edge equipment, especially in the medical field that is crucial to people's well-being and population growth. The resources invested are even huge. "If converted into per capita medical resources, it will even exceed the local area, which makes people sigh at the company's emphasis on medical industry and medical development.
In the more than two years since its establishment, Nantel has not only achieved remarkable achievements in infrastructure construction, but also spent a lot of energy on health and culture. This is undoubtedly the result of the strong personal will of the helmsman of the Nantel, because no rational leader will invest a large amount of valuable resources in "relatively unimportant" aspects such as health and culture at the beginning of the company. From this perspective, Mo Ming, the current helmsman of Nantel, is indeed "irrational".
Where was he "irrational"? First, he put down his old face and ran to the east coast. He dug a group of graduates from Dayuhe Medical College, Nursing and Technical College and other schools to work in Nantik, and gave them extremely high treatment. After these people arrived at the railway affiliation, they set up outpatient clinics in seven settlements including Xingnangang, including Xingnangang, and provided medical services to immigrants. In addition, through the relationship between the Ministry of Health, he invited local doctors and doctors from time to time to form a circuit clinic to provide temporary medical services to local residents, and were widely welcomed by 20,000 to 30,000 residents in the railway affiliation.
Don’t underestimate the role of these outpatient departments. They may not be able to treat many diseases, but they are doing quite well in sanitation prevention, endemic disease investigation and health knowledge publicity. To put it bluntly. At present, the East Coast local area has no conditions to equip every settlement with township clinics. Many places are fooled by village doctors. It is far inferior to Nantiet.
If the above is nothing, then President Mo Da will have even more "crazy" things, that is, he still put out a large part of the funds that are not very sufficient, and personally donated 2,000 yuan to establish a health research institution called "Nan Railway Institute of Health" in Xingnan Port. The research institution was just completed in the first half of this year, covering an area of 38,000 square meters, with a total of about 40 buildings, divided into six major research departments: bacteria, pathology, chemistry, hygiene, serum, and bacteria. But don't be fooled by these professional names. In fact, due to various reasons, some basic research has been carried out in these fields, and the results have been limited.
"Don't be embarrassed to admit that the current health conditions of our residents - especially those of the affiliated areas of Nantie Railway - are still above an extremely low level. To fundamentally reverse this situation, we must vigorously invest in medical research and education and cultivate a capable, ethical and large-scale medical team." This passage was what Mo Ming said at the establishment ceremony of the Nantie Railway Institute of Health. Within one month after its establishment, this medical research institution has successively recruited 20 East Coast students and 1 naturalized Patagonian student to enroll. Of course, this student must first go to preparatory course to study Chinese - acting as an assistant to medical researchers.
As soon as the Nantie Institute of Health was established a while ago, it immediately carried out a number of sanitation tests, water quality drug inspections and other tasks. Among them, scientific research tasks include: prevention and control of infectious diseases that have been rampant on the east coast for a long time, research on the nutritional components of major food resources in the east coast, nutritional components of Chinese food (special Chinese food in the Ming Dynasty) and how to make Chinese food more suitable for people on the east coast; solutions to malnutrition problems of some children, etc. In addition, there are some entrusted experimental projects of the Ministry of Health, such as water quality surveys, drug tests (using Tverche people to test), etc.
At the same time, as a country where Eastern and Western cultures meet fiercely, the East Coast has also conducted in-depth research on the medicine of Ming Dynasty. The local area has gone far in this area and has made certain progress in herbal medicine. The newly established Nantie Institute of Health will certainly not give up on the research on Oriental Medicine. It even has a "pharmacy specialty" branch under the chemistry research department, specializing in the study of traditional Chinese medicine and herbal medicine. At the same time, it vigorously collects the prescriptions from the doctor of Ming Dynasty, and then organizes people to conduct research and analysis together.
There are currently 18 researchers in this branch, almost all of whom were from the Ming Dynasty. They rely on more than 1,500 books of traditional Chinese medicine in the library (collected by the Hei Shui Development Team, and are still continuing to enrich the traditional Chinese medicine library) to repeatedly verify and study various ancient Chinese medicine books and prescriptions, and at the same time conduct scientific discussions on the prescriptions used in ancient times. For this reason, they do not hesitate to conduct a large number of human experiments, and also need to examine the details.
In any case, this is a very pragmatic behavior. Currently, more than half of the medical staff in the East Coast, 90% of the experienced doctors are from traditional Chinese medicine. Many of them once opened pharmacies in the Ming Dynasty to take pulses and prescribe prescriptions for patients. They have a lot of experience. At present, they can only believe and make the most of their personal abilities. After all, in the extreme lack of modern medical equipment and modern medicines, people in the East Coast can only find ways from the massive collection of Chinese ancient medical books, to remove the degeneration and preserve the essence of various Chinese medical methods, theories, and prescriptions, and try to find something useful to the medical industry.
The traditional Chinese medicine practitioners who came from the Ming Dynasty also gained great gains in this process. Some people even put forward pioneering ideas. For example, the method for treating tuberculosis (vaccine vaccination) that Nantie Hospital is currently experimenting with vaccination, which was proposed by a traditional Chinese medicine practitioner who has experience in raising vaccination, which is extremely surprising.
The Nantie Institute of Health plans to add more personnel in the future to conduct comprehensive examinations of various ancient medical books, and then compile them to form a medical catalog, called "Ming Medical Books", which echoes the "Song Medical Books" that is being studied and demonstrated locally.
At the same time, the Nantec Institute of Health has also conducted targeted research on the "endemic diseases" in the Southern Patagonia region - of course, it has just started and only a few people have a handicap. These researchers conducted basic research on local frequent tuberculosis (cold winters and long indoors), black fever (very prevalent in Shandong), goiter (more prevalent in Hebei), marrow disease (more prevalent in North Korea and Shandan immigrants), malnutrition (more prevalent among dock laborers and coal miners, and these Ming people immigrants are unwilling to spend money to buy a large amount of side food, so although they ate a lot of grains in one meal, they are still prone to malnutrition). Although there is no idea yet, I believe that as time goes by, research results will eventually come out and begin to benefit thousands of people in the country.
In addition to these adult diseases, as an immigrant country with a very short population, the Nantie Institute of Health has undoubtedly conducted a lot of research on parenting, pregnancy and gynecological diseases. At present, this part of the knowledge mainly comes from doctors accused from the Ming Dynasty. Their experience in early childhood and gynecological diseases is quite reliable - at least it is much better than those Western witch doctors who have transferred from carpenters and only know how to amputate and bleed - it is not a problem to provide some advice to ordinary people.
A while ago, there were even rumors in Xingnan Port that President Mo Mingmo's wife, Lola, a shipbuilding designer from France, planned to invest 2,000 yuan in private to set up a separate gynecological and early childhood hospital in Xingnan Port to provide medical services for women and young children. She really didn't want to see the new children in the East Coast Republic die on a large scale due to an unexpected epidemic. However, it seems that there is a shortage of talents and it can't be opened for a while, so she can only build it slowly.
In short, Nantie has invested hugely in medical care, and its determination to solve diseases that threaten the health of residents of the affiliated areas (introduced by foreign immigrants). Judging from the current measures, their ideas are very clear, that is, to carry out basic research on diseases, promote the prevention of various infectious diseases (although the effect is not good, it must be persisted), and to cultivate a large number of health care, epidemic prevention and medical staff. The short-term focus is to eliminate tuberculosis and protect weak women and young children.
Researchers from the Southern Railway Institute of Health have always believed that reducing disease deaths is more important than encouraging birth. The Eastern Coast Republic is a country built on a wilderness, and the wild virgin land means it is not livable, or the land has not been transformed in the environment and is full of various pathogenic factors. This can be seen from the fact that a large number of people die from epidemics almost every month in the East Coast. The grassland areas in the south of the Republic (drier and cooler than the north) are better, while the Duck Lake Basin and the Geral Mountains in the north are much more serious.
In those places, only two or three hundred people died from indigenous harassment in a certain settlement, but the number of deaths from various epidemics and even unknown diseases is often twice as many as it is, which is shocking - no wonder the Dutch people, the Portuguese immigrated vigorously in Brazil for so long, but there are still only so many people. The mortality rate is too high; Virginia and New England in North America are also very similar, and a large number of people died from various diseases when they were initially opened up, which is really a headache. In other words, if there is no better medical system and health prevention knowledge, the work of pioneering wilderness will become extremely dangerous. Especially in the East Coast, a place where most adult men need to travel from the Far East, their desire for a good health system and medical system is even far more than that of colonial countries in the old continent - they do not have so many gray animals for decontamination.
