Bulgarian Empire

When the Ministry of Health announced the epidemic situation, it happened to be the middle point when the first wave of the epidemic ended and the second wave of the epidemic had not yet erupted. The outbreaks of the epidemic all over the world were subsiding, and even disappeared completely in many places.

At first glance, the governments of various countries found that the situation was very good. Naturally, they did not take the warning from the Bulgarian Ministry of Health to heart. Many people still secretly despise that Bulgaria’s medical technology is still stuck in the Middle Ages. An ordinary flu is scared. Be like this!

The Washington Daily published an article saying: This flu can only bring disaster to areas with backward medical science, but the developed United States of America does not need to pay attention to it. The colonial countries that should be prevented, their colonies are about to have big troubles. Bulgaria Wrong object!

The Sun also claimed: Have we had another April Fool's Day? This is the best joke of this century. The flu is fading all over the world. The Bulgarian Ministry of Health actually reminds everyone to prevent the epidemic?

Could it be that they got the time wrong and sent out the report a few months ago? This is dereliction of duty by the bureaucratic class. It is recommended that the Bulgarian internal affairs department conduct strict investigations to avoid such a situation of fooling the world from happening again!

...

No matter how ridiculed by outside public opinion, Ferdinand pretended not to see it, and domestic newspapers all reminded everyone to prevent the epidemic. It's not that no one wants to attract attention, but Bulgaria's news management laws are too strict!

In a situation like this, once the epidemic occurs, the distorted media will constitute a crime of distorting the facts, and a ten-year start is indispensable.

Unless no casualties are caused, once a patient dies, they constitute a potential murder, and the mine is their final destination!

The predecessors taught them with countless blood lessons that in Bulgaria, you can speak nonsense, but you must not write nonsense in the news, especially the news that is against the government!

In August, the epidemic situation changed again. A deadly flu outbreak occurred on a British ship that had just left the West African country of the Lion Mountain Republic. Before the ship arrived in the UK, 75% of the crew were infected and 7% of the crew died. Something similar happened.

Almost at the same time, an influenza with a high mortality rate also occurred in Ashgabat, Russia, and Meshid, Persia, and it spread rapidly.

Well, the two sources emerged at the same time. Ferdinand didn’t bother to care about where it spread to the whole world. Bulgaria has already done a good job in epidemic prevention. A pot of tea, kowtow melon seeds to watch a joke.

On August 27, influenza was introduced into the United States and spread among dock workers in Boston, while influenza broke out in Brest, France at almost the same time, and then many cities in the eastern United States also had outbreaks.

Beginning in early September in continental Europe and the United States, and spread throughout the world within a few weeks, the flu spread again around the world.

The second wave of influenza is different from the previous influenza. The mortality rate is particularly high among young and middle-aged people aged 20 to 35. In addition to high fever and headache, the symptoms include turning blue and coughing up blood. Influenza often causes complications Deaths are caused by various diseases, with pneumonia being the most common.

Many cities have restricted citizens from going to public places, and movie theaters, dance halls, sports venues, etc. have been closed for more than a year. Seattle tram attendants refuse to board trains for passengers without masks.

October of the same year was the darkest month in American history. 200,000 Americans died in this month, and the average life expectancy in the United States in 1918 was therefore reduced by 12 years than usual.

Seeing that the outbreak of the epidemic around the world did not spread in Bulgaria, Ferdinand was relieved. At the beginning of August, Bulgaria temporarily closed all ports and cut off trade with countries around the world, so this wave of influenza did not spread. Did not spread in Bulgaria.

However, many border cities were still affected. The epidemic from the Austro-Hungarian Empire and Russia still caused some troubles for the Bulgarian government. Fortunately, the isolation was timely and did not spread on a large scale!

Seeing that the epidemic has been initially contained,

Ferdinand summoned the Crown Prince Ferdinand Jr. and asked, "Boy, do you dare to inspect the country now?"

Now is also the time to pave the way for the crown prince. The grown-up Ferdinand should also show his presence in front of the public, and this epidemic is the best opportunity to buy people's hearts!

Ferdinand is no longer needed, his prestige is high enough, and there is nothing that can shake his status now, but little Ferdinand is not enough. In everyone's impression, he is only the eldest son of the king, and he may inherit the king's throne. Some advantages, nothing more!

This little prestige makes it no problem for him to inherit the throne, but there is still a long way to go for everyone to truly recognize him!

Little Ferdinand, who was a newborn calf, naturally wouldn't be afraid, and said without hesitation: "Dare! Why don't you dare? Father, you have said that men should not be afraid! When are you leaving? I'll go back and ask for a leave of absence first. ,get ready!"

Ferdinand said seriously: "This time you are touring the country on behalf of the royal family, so I won't go, how about it? Do you have the ability to do this well?"

Little Ferdinand was shocked. After all, he was still a young man, and he was still stubborn. He said without hesitation, "No problem, I promise to complete the task!"

Ferdinand smiled slightly, as long as he has the courage to go, if he meets a cowardly crown prince, then he will have to cry, if he doesn't know how to take advantage of such a good opportunity, then he will be finished!

Look at how desperate George V was, in order to gain a sense of presence, he was infected with the disease; the Spanish Kingdom Alfonso XIII next door to them also accidentally put himself in it, of course they all survived in the end!

It is not so dangerous to patrol the whole country of Bulgaria. The officials below have already isolated the patients. Even if they are patrolling, they are going to a safe area? Do you still expect the crown prince to visit the sick?

Even if you want to see it, it is to visit a patient who has recovered! In order to prevent the spread of the disease, patients in the isolation area are prohibited from visiting anyone. This is a regulation of the Ministry of Health, and everyone must abide by it!

Ferdinand asked with some concern: "You decide which places to go this time. You don't need to go to the colonies. The epidemic over there has long been out of control. You just need to inspect the Balkan Peninsula, and the epidemic has already broken out. Do not go to the area!"

Don't look at Bulgaria's good epidemic prevention work. It is only aimed at the local area. Only a few residents in the colony have taken measures, and in the vast indigenous living areas, who is full and has nothing to do?

There is no medicine, no medical treatment, no epidemic prevention measures, and the virus is allowed to spread. You can imagine what kind of scene those areas are now!

According to statistics from later generations, there are 1.7 billion people in the world, the number of people infected with influenza virus is as high as 1 billion, and the death rate is between 2.5% and 5% (this is only for some regions). The number of deaths is also different. .

The recorded death population is about 22 million, and the number of deaths in the colonies that has not been counted is about 50 million to 100 million. The exact number cannot be determined!

Anyway, the more backward the medical treatment and the worse the sanitary conditions, the higher the mortality rate!

Little Ferdinand came to his senses, co-authoring is just going out for a show! Tell me earlier, I was taken aback. I thought I was really going to visit the patient?

Looking at little Ferdinand's expression, Ferdinand knew what was going on, but as a father, it was impossible for him to push his son into the fire pit!

Little Ferdinand said hesitantly, "Father, isn't this good? If you don't go to the epidemic area, it doesn't look too bad..."

Ferdinand glared at him, and then said: "Idiot, can't you walk slowly when you are touring the country? Start from Sofia, go to Constantinople, and then walk along Thrace, Macedonia, and the Greek peninsula... , the epidemic is over long ago, you can just go there again!"

Little Ferdinand nodded. Sure enough, Jiang is still old and hot. In terms of this level of showmanship, he is hard to beat. There are so many cities in Bulgaria, even if it is one a day, it will be no problem for two or three years!

As for the traditional diseases, the virus will spread and be contained in winter, and it is already September. Isn't it too easy to delay it until December?

...

After figuring out the purpose, little Ferdinand was not pretentious, and directly embarked on the road of national inspections, but the flu is still ravaging the world, and the gods block and kill the gods and Buddhas, blocking and killing the Buddhas, and the epidemic prevention personnel from all over the world hit the suspicious life!

Since the second major outbreak of influenza began in August, governments around the world have panicked. Don't panic. The death toll is really outrageous!

Every household hangs white sails, crying and crying all over the world!

Due to the large number of deaths, the funeral industry has become the most popular industry in all countries, and coffins have become a commodity in short supply. If there is no other way, just take a few boards and nail them with a nail, and you will be able to use them.

Funerals have become group activities, and the priests have to let the dead form a group to meet God because of their busy business. Of course, it doesn’t work if you don’t form a group, the guests need to send too many others, and they have no skills at all!

Fortunately, Ferdinand still has some integrity, he didn't go to make money from the dead, hoard a pile of coffins and sell them there, otherwise the world would be even more...

Bulgaria, the first country in the world to start epidemic prevention, has become a learning object for various countries. They have chosen to block ports, cut off trade, and designate quarantine areas to prevent the spread of the virus!

It's a pity that it was too late, the flu virus had already spread, and it would not be so easy to contain it. For example, Spain, the worst country in Europe, had 8 million people infected with the virus, including King Alfonso III, and Madrid III. One-third of the citizens were infected, some government departments were forced to close their doors, and there were patients all over the country. How were they isolated?

George V of the United Kingdom was not spared because he was too active. 200,000 people died in England and Wales, and the Royal Fleet could not enter the sea for three weeks; 7 million people died in Mumbai, India; 73 people died from influenza; 20% of Western Samoans died from influenza.

In many countries, there are piles of dead bodies, and there are no passengers on trams; schools, dance theaters, and movie theaters have no lights, and swimming pools and bowling alleys are empty; in a small town in South Africa, due to lack of coffins, corpses wrapped in blankets are buried hastily, funerals are held in the streets during the day, and ambulances are carried out at night. Car shuttle.

There is no harm if there is no comparison. If everyone is unlucky together, then naturally there is nothing to say, but the problem is that no one is unlucky now?

Everyone's heart is not very balanced. At least there are demonstrations and demonstrations on the streets of Paris to protest against the government's inaction. It seems that they are not afraid of death at all!

But the politicians still have a way. They directly transferred the martial law order from Bulgaria, and the ears were cleared at once. Now that we have done it, it can be done, right?

Of course, this is only temporary. If there is no accident, after the epidemic is over, some people will come out to protest against the government depriving them of their freedom of demonstration. Anyway, the competitors will not let the government relax!

This time the capitalists did not hinder the government's anti-epidemic action. Although it also harmed their interests, they were even more afraid of death!

Influenza does not recognize people, even if they have better medical conditions and the survival rate is as high as 99%, everyone still dare not take risks!

The main reason is that the virus announced by the Bulgarian Ministry of Health is still evolving, which really frightened everyone. Now that it is so powerful, if it continues to evolve, isn’t it a replica of the Black Death? No one dares to bet on this!

Medical institutions all over the world are involved in virus research, but it's a pity that this thing is really not the technology of this era, it can be solved!

Viruses are different, how to create specific medicines?

The University of Cambridge organized experts to conduct virus statistics. They were surprised to find that there are more than 300 viruses in 1,000 patients, which means that the average virus overlap is only 3/1000. medicine?

Even if more than 300 kinds of medicines are produced, it is useless. The virus is still unstable and changes at any time. If a medicine is developed today, the virus will mutate tomorrow. What is the use?

This kind of mutation may be on the good side, or it may be on the bad side. If it is a benign development, then congratulations, you can prepare to be discharged from the hospital. If it is a bad side mutation, then you can prepare for the funeral!

Then the British scientific community once again proved the possibility that no specific medicine has been developed in the short term, so everyone should work together to eliminate the virus, otherwise, if one is not good, humans will have to play with it!

Perhaps with the blessing of God, the winter of 1918 came soon, and the epidemic began to subside, and the governments of all countries breathed a sigh of relief.

The last two or three months have been so fucking exciting. In just a few months, the combined death toll in all countries has directly exceeded the sum of the two and a half years of world wars!

The world's economy has entered a state of depression, and the flu has dispelled everyone's enthusiasm for buying. If it is not for the purchase of daily necessities, many people will choose to stay at home and not go anywhere!
