The county seat is quite far from the town, and Chen Xin’s cousin-in-law had never driven a large vehicle like Chen Xin’s RV, so he drove slowly and carefully, so that they did not arrive at the county seat until the afternoon.
There are more people in the county than in the town. Although there are not many people on the streets, the large swaths of signs of life on the radar screen still allow Chen Xin to deeply feel how crowded the county is now. , or how many people squeezed in.
Because the initial meteorite impact caused a super tsunami, and the subsequent high temperatures caused the melting of the Arctic and Antarctic glaciers, the southeastern coastal areas of Yan State were among the hardest hit areas.
So when Yan Guo received the news that the meteorite was about to hit Blue Star, he had already started a migration plan.
However, three months is still too short. Even with the overall national dispatch and the cooperation of various departments, the population in coastal areas has been mainly moved to neighboring provinces and cities, and only a small part of the population has been moved to the central and northwest regions.
This has also led to provinces like Anhui Province that are close to coastal provinces to move in a large number of immigrants from coastal provinces.
Even this ordinary small county town where Chen Xin’s hometown is located has seen a population increase from two to three hundred thousand people in the past to nearly half a million people. The doubled population almost filled the entire county town.
If the migrant population had not migrated according to the city, and the original municipal, medical, police and other departments were well established and could quickly resume operations after arriving in the local area and coordinate with the local departments, I am afraid that the migrant population alone would not be able to survive. Eating, drinking, and drinking can completely collapse the area you move into.
The impact of the population explosion is also reflected in the strain on medical resources. When Chen Xin and his parents came to the original county hospital, they saw a hospital waiting hall that was even more crowded than before the disaster.
Chen Xin is still very familiar with the county hospital. His grandmother used to live opposite the county hospital and was an infectious disease doctor in the hospital. Chen Xin’s mother’s first job after joining the workforce was also in the county hospital.
Even Chen Xin himself spent most of his childhood here before he left here.
However, for Chen Xin, the familiar clinic building no longer exists, but has become a bunker-like building.
Entering through the open protective door, Chen Xin looked around before he figured out what was going on here.
The county hospital has a very long history, and this area has not been changed for decades since the county hospital was first established. Therefore, there is an underground air-raid shelter dug in the 1970s and 1980s under the county hospital.
Before the disaster, the county government made use of this area, renovated the original air-raid shelter, made it larger and deeper, and connected it to the outpatient and inpatient buildings on the surface. Then it demolished the floors above the first floor of the outpatient building, and then renovated the remaining ones. The surface buildings were reinforced, and finally the demolished construction waste and excavated soil were piled on the surface of the building to act as a buffer layer, which is what Chen Xin sees now.
There are a large number of people coming to see the doctor in the outpatient hall at the moment. It is not only noisy but also extremely crowded. It is obvious that the low temperature and cold have caused a large number of patients.
However, Chen Xin was not greatly affected. Most of these people had colds or colds. There were not many fractures and injuries like Chen Xin, so after queuing up to register, Chen Xin went to the underground department with his parents. .
If it was in the past, Chen Xin’s parents had a lot of acquaintances in the hospital. Although most of their acquaintances have retired after so many years, they can still find many connections with a phone call.
However, it has become very troublesome to find a relationship now, and Chen Xin can only go to the doctor according to the rules.
Fortunately, there are not many people in the orthopedics department. Apart from Chen Xin, there is only one person who broke his leg, like a construction worker.
After the doctor finished examining the injured patient, it was Chen Xin’s turn to go to see the doctor.
The orthopedic surgeon was obviously much more professional than Zeng Liu, the pharmacist who had only studied bone setting. After some questioning and examination, Chen Xin was asked to take a X-ray.
"Don't worry, young man. The person who set your bones is doing a good job. There shouldn't be any big problems. The main purpose of taking a X-ray is to confirm the condition of the bones and their healing. Don't worry." The doctor also comforted Chen Xin.
Hearing what the doctor said, Chen Xin didn't care much, and his parents felt relieved. After all, it was their son, and a fracture was already a serious matter for ordinary people.
After taking a series of X-ray examinations, the doctor also had an understanding of Chen Xin’s arm bones.? Put the X-ray film on the light box and explained to Chen Xin: "The person who set your bones did a good job, but there are still some things that are not in place. It can be seen that the method is very experienced, but the experience is insufficient, so I still have to do it again. Adjust to avoid problems.”
"Do you still need to adjust?" Chen Xin thought of the pain when Zeng Liu adjusted his bones last time, and his face became a little sad.
"Don't worry, the problem is not big. It's just a small adjustment to make your bones reposition more closely. After all, you can see from the X-ray that there is still a gap between your two broken bones." The doctor seemed to be looking at it. Seeing Chen Xin's hesitation, he persuaded him: "Although it's not a big problem to leave it alone, it will still have some impact. Adjusting it can prevent your hands from being the same length in the future!"
Hearing what the doctor said, Chen Xin hesitated for a moment, then gritted his teeth and nodded.
When the doctor saw this, he didn’t waste any time. He quickly removed the bandage and splint on Chen Xin’s arm and adjusted the bones of his arm again according to the X-ray picture.
Fortunately, Zeng Liu had reset his broken bones before, and now the doctor only needed to make some minor adjustments. Although Chen Xin still felt a pain, the pain was less than when Zeng Liu was setting his bones before. Much smaller.
The doctor made some adjustments, gave Chen Xin medicine, re-bandaged and fixed it, and then said to him: "In the past, you could go back and eat more bone soup and milk to speed up bone recovery, but now …Eat more nutritious things.”
The doctor's expression was also very helpless. In the current shortage of supplies, let alone bone soup, even milk has become extinct. The only things that can be called nutritious are rat meat and synthetic vitamin tablets. .
Chen Xin also wrote down the doctor’s instructions and took the medicine list to the pharmacy to prescribe medicine.
I have to say that one good thing after the disaster strikes is that medical care is free. (Remember the website address: www.hlnovel.com - Didn't finish reading?
