Chen Mo and the other two arrived at the other party's home.
The family was very hospitable and prepared a table full of food.
Not to mention today's matter, but also Chen Mo's previous help to their family in seeing a doctor at the hospital had made them very grateful.
After the meal, Chen Mo and the other two noticed that it was getting late and bid farewell, returning to the hospital.
By the time they arrived at the hospital, it was almost time for work.
After changing into their white coats, the three of them walked towards the consultation rooms.
Seeing the long queue outside Chen Wenbin's door again, Yang Lan felt a pang of jealousy. She then looked at her own empty consultation room door.
"He's just a doctoral graduate from a top medical university, what's so great about that? If he wasn't riding on Director Chen's coattails, he wouldn't be this popular!" Yang Lan said sourly.
Chen Mo smiled helplessly. In reality, this didn't matter much to him, as he didn't care about such things.
However, at that moment.
"Cough, cough, cough!"
A young woman, appearing somewhat weak, walked out of Chen Wenbin's consultation room, still coughing incessantly.
"Wife, how is it? What did the doctor say?" a young man quickly stepped forward to support the woman and asked.
"Cough, cough, cough!"
The woman coughed violently a few more times before speaking, "The doctor said it's nothing, just a common cold. He prescribed some imported anti-inflammatory drugs, saying they are very effective."
"That's good, that's good. Wife, I'll go get the medicine. You wait here for a moment, and then we'll go home." The young man finally breathed a sigh of relief, holding the prescription slip and about to leave.
"Wait a moment!"
Just as the young man was about to leave, Chen Mo suddenly stopped him.
The young man and the woman were both taken aback.
Seeing Chen Mo wearing a white coat, the young man asked doubtfully, "Doctor, is there a problem?"
Chen Mo looked at the prescription slip in the young man's hand, "Sir, could I see the prescription slip you're holding?"
The young man looked puzzled but still handed the slip to Chen Mo.
Tian Mengyao and Yang Lan, who were beside him, also leaned in.
However, when the two of them saw the names of the medications on the prescription, they exchanged glances, both looking surprised.
"Director Chen, he actually prescribed Faropenem Sodium tablets. This is considered the most expensive anti-inflammatory drug. How could such a medicine be used for a common cold?" Yang Lan asked incredulously.
After all, a box of Faropenem Sodium tablets cost nearly three hundred yuan.
"Cough, cough, cough!"
"Doctor, is there something wrong with this medicine?" the woman asked, coughing dryly.
Chen Mo did not conceal anything, "This medicine is considered the most expensive anti-inflammatory drug."
"The most expensive anti-inflammatory drug? Could it be that it's more effective? My wife has been coughing so badly these past few days, and yesterday she even coughed up blood!" the young man asked urgently.
"What did you say? She coughed up blood?" Chen Mo looked at the woman in surprise.
"Yes, I asked Dr. Chen just now, and he said it was normal, possibly due to damaged airways from excessive coughing." the woman replied.
However, Chen Mo's expression gradually turned grim.
He quickly reached out and grabbed the woman's wrist, carefully taking her pulse.
The couple was startled by Chen Mo's actions.
But seeing that Chen Mo was merely taking her pulse, they relaxed.
However, Chen Mo's expression grew increasingly troubled!
"Director Chen, what's wrong?" Yang Lan asked, noticing Chen Mo's expression.
Chen Mo released the woman's hand, observed her demeanor, and said solemnly, "Sir, Madam, I'm afraid you two cannot leave the hospital today."
"Ah? Why?"
"Yes, we still have to go to work!"
Both of them were clearly stunned and looked at Chen Mo questioningly.
Chen Mo did not rush to explain, but instead looked at Tian Mengyao and Yang Lan, "Mengyao, go inform the hospital to seal off all areas on this floor and prohibit anyone from entering or leaving!"
"Yang Lan, notify the Tuberculosis Control Office and have them quarantine everyone who has come into contact with them."
Yang Lan and Tian Mengyao were shocked.
"Tuberculosis Control Office?"
"Director Chen, are you saying she has tuberculosis?"
Chen Mo nodded.
He had already taken the woman's pulse, and all the symptoms pointed towards tuberculosis.
"Good heavens, I'll go notify the hospital right away!" Yang Lan nodded quickly and ran towards the hospital's Tuberculosis Control Office.
Tian Mengyao did not dare to delay, and as per Chen Mo's instructions, gathered all the patients waiting outside into Chen Mo's consultation room for isolation.
"Doctor, you're not joking, are you? How could my wife have tuberculosis?!" At this point, the young man finally reacted and asked Chen Mo with a look of disbelief.
Chen Mo replied, "Your wife's symptoms strongly suggest tuberculosis, so please cooperate patiently with our work."
"No, the expert doctor inside said my wife only has a common cold, but you're saying it's tuberculosis? That's ridiculous!"
"Kid, get out of the way immediately, or I'll call the police!"
The young man was also angered and tried to push Chen Mo aside.
As the director of the respiratory department, Chen Mo was well aware of the severity of tuberculosis and would certainly not allow the young man to leave.
Chen Mo used a grappling technique and pinned the young man to the ground.
"Sir, please calm down. Untreated tuberculosis can be fatal!" Chen Mo reprimanded in a low voice.
"You're talking nonsense! You clearly misdiagnosed. Are you better than Dr. Chen?" the young man retorted.
"Cough, cough, cough!"
"Doctor, please don't fight!"
The woman beside him was also very anxious.
The situation of a tuberculosis patient appearing in the respiratory department was immediately reported to the hospital's senior management.
To prevent panic, even Jiang Hongwen put on a protective suit and personally headed to the scene.
Meanwhile, Chen Wenbin, who was seeing patients in his consultation room, was unaware of what was happening outside.
"Alright, after you go back, take this medicine for a week and come back for a follow-up examination." Chen Wenbin handed a prescription slip to the patient.
"Thank you, Dr. Chen!" the patient expressed his gratitude.
"It's nothing, you can go now. Call the next patient in," Chen Wenbin said, taking a sip of tea and waving his hand.
Chen Wenbin greatly enjoyed this feeling of being a savior.
However, after the patient left, Chen Wenbin frowned slightly.
Previously, as soon as one patient left, another would quickly come in.
But this time, why had the patient been gone for a full five minutes, and no one had come in yet?
"Chang Wei, what are you standing there for? Go, call the next person in to see the doctor." Chen Wenbin glanced at Chang Wei, who was busy, and instructed him.
"Yes, Dr. Chen." Chang Wei responded.
Despite his reluctance, he had to go to the door.
However, as Chang Wei opened the consultation room door and looked outside, he was stunned.
Suddenly, several doctors in protective suits appeared at the doorway.
And looking at the corridor outside, there wasn't a single patient in sight.
