Reborn Brazil as a Plutocrat

To solve the problem of the spread of disease, it is certainly not enough to rely solely on physical examination and treatment within the military.

Of course, external sources of transmission must also be rectified.

Early the next morning, Fang Lang made an appointment with Mayor Ewald Dursley to inspect Natal's medical and health facilities.

Fang Lang was very surprised when he drove through the streets of downtown Natal again.

No wonder the President praised the construction of Natal last time.

During the current period of military control in Natal and Fanglang, there have indeed been huge changes.

The main street has been turned into a four-lane cement road, and tall landscape trees have been planted on the roadside. The original muddy and dilapidated appearance is no longer visible.

There is only one hospital in Natal, which is on the main street in the city center. When Fang Lang and Mayor Ewald Dursley came to the door of the hospital, they found that the hospital was a little deserted and not as busy as Fang Lang expected.

Scenery.

The arrival of the two did not attract the attention of the hospital staff.

"Your Excellency, General, this is our only hospital in Natal. It was established by Dr. Pasco Tapia. It took nearly thirty years of development to reach today's scale."

Fang Lang carefully looked at the hospital in front of him, which was similar in size to the hospital in his hometown in his previous life. It consisted of four rows of bungalows forming a small courtyard.

There are four or five tall trees in the yard, and there are some low shrubs under the trees. They look like they have been carefully taken care of.

There is a bench under every big tree, and there are four or five sick-looking men and women on the benches, looking at Fang Lang and his party in boredom.

After hearing Mayor Ewald Dursley's introduction, Fang Lang didn't express any opinions, just nodded and continued walking inside.

After entering the hospital gate, there is a registration and payment office on the left, where a white middle-aged woman is sorting out the documents in her hand.

On the right is a place that looks like a pharmacy, but the area is less than ten square meters. A white man in his thirties is holding a book and reading.

After walking through the room, you can see corridors on both sides near the courtyard. Along the corridors, you can see rooms one after another. There are some names on the rooms, which seem to be the names of doctors.

But he couldn't see the name of the department, which surprised Fang Lang. Could it be that the current Natal Hospital doesn't even have divisions into departments?

Along the way, Fang Lang counted ten doctors' offices in total.

It seems that these are all the doctors in this hospital. No wonder there was not enough manpower to arrange a physical examination.

Fortunately, although the conditions of this hospital are simple, the sanitary environment is very well maintained.

The ground and houses are hardened with cement.

The row of houses at the back has more than ten rooms, each with three beds. It seems that this is the inpatient department of the hospital.

There are thirty beds in total.

After everyone walked around the hospital, Mayor Ewald Dursley led Fang Lang and knocked on the door of a room where the director's office was hung.

A slightly older voice came from inside:

"Come in!"

Mayor Ewald Dursley opened the door, went in and greeted the other party with a smile:

"Long time no see Dr. Pasco Tapia."

Following the open door, Fang Lang saw an old white man in his sixties with gray hair inside.

The old man is not tall. He wears glasses on the bridge of his nose and looks like a scholar.

"Mr. Mayor, are you feeling uncomfortable somewhere?"

The old man pushed his eyes on the bridge of his nose and said.

Mayor Ewald Dursley waved his hands repeatedly and said:

"Doctor Pasco Tapia, I don't feel uncomfortable at all. Today I mainly accompany General Fang to your place for a visit."

Saying that, get out of the way.

Fang Lang quickly stepped forward, nodded to the old man and said:

"Hello Dr. Pasco Tapia, I am Fang Lang!"

The old man looked Fang Lang up and down and said:

"Are you Commander Fang of the naval base?"

Fang Lang didn't expect that the other party had heard of him.

He smiled quickly and nodded:

"Yes, Dr. Basco Tapia, I am the commander of the Natal Naval Base."

After hearing Fang Lang's answer, the old man stood up from the stool and stretched out his right hand to shake hands with Fang Lang.

His mouth trembled a little as he said:

"General Fang, thank you! Thank you for avenging my granddaughter.

If it weren't for you, I might never be able to find the murderer of my granddaughter in my life."

Fang Lang was stunned by these words, and even Mayor Ewald Dursley was confused.

Dr. Basco Tapia saw the two people's reactions and quickly explained:

"My granddaughter disappeared when she was 16 years old. We called the police to search but found nothing.

A few months after the general arrested the Yakub family, I learned about it from a policeman.

My granddaughter was also harmed by that old bastard Yakub.

My poor granddaughter! She’s only sixteen years old!

How did you get rid of that bastard who deserves to go to hell!"

As he talked, the old man started to cry loudly.

Fang Lang was at a loss for a moment, and he quickly comforted the old man with Mayor Ewald Dursley.

After a long while, Dr. Pasco Tapia finally stopped his excitement.

He said with a trembling voice:

"General Fang, are you feeling uncomfortable in any way when you came here today?"

It seems that the first reaction of a doctor when seeing a person is to ask if there is anything wrong with the body!

Fang Lang smiled and shook his head:

"Dr. Tapia, I came here today mainly to learn about our hospital's medical capabilities, especially its ability to diagnose and treat infectious diseases.

Recently my military medical officer told me that many of my subordinates are infected with syphilis and gonorrhea.

This will have a very serious impact on the combat effectiveness of our troops.

Our army has begun arranging physical examinations for everyone and centralized treatment of all infected personnel.

However, the infected people outside must also be controlled and treated. As the only hospital in Natal, I want to come and understand the situation."

As soon as he heard Fang Lang's words, Dr. Pasco Tapia understood what Fang Lang meant.

He said directly:

"General Fang is here for those girls who are sick!

According to what I know now, a very large number of girls are infected. Fortunately, the government now arranges for girls to go to the hospital for regular check-ups, so we discovered it in a timely manner.

Treatment has begun for all the girls.

If the girls have not recovered, we will not issue them health certificates.

Please rest assured!"

When Fang Lang heard what the other party said, he felt something was wrong. What do you mean, I am here for the girls who are infected.

This is not something I contracted! Why does it sound so awkward to my ears!

Thinking about it, it was not the time to worry about these minutiae, so he nodded and continued to ask:

"Are there any difficulties in treatment?"

Dr. Basco Tapia nodded and said:

"The best drug to treat these diseases now is penicillin, but the price of this drug is too expensive.

Therefore, some girls simply cannot afford treatment.

The only option is to use the old treatment plan, which may take a little longer."

This is considered normal. Fangyuan Group manufactures penicillin itself, so it is clear that the production of penicillin was difficult and the price was high before chemical synthesis.

Fang Lang is not a saint. It is impossible for him to provide penicillin for free to these girls after hearing that some girls cannot afford it.

The doctors have said that it can be cured by using the old treatment plan, so there will be no problem.

Of course, the soldiers use penicillin directly. After all, the cost of the drug is paid for by the Ministry of National Defense’s military expenditures. This is also a business!

"Yeah! That's good.

Are there many other people besides these girls who are infected?"

After all, it’s not just the soldiers who take care of the girl’s business, there are also many customers outside!

Dr. Basco Tapia thought for a moment before saying:

"Judging from the current situation, not many other people come to the hospital for medical treatment.

I guess I haven’t paid attention to it yet.

There may also be people who don’t have money for medical treatment.”

Upon hearing this, Fang Lang quickly said to Mayor Ewald Dursley:

"This is not okay, it can easily cause repeated infections.

Maybe we should educate everyone about the dangers of these diseases and let these girls learn to use safety measures.

Post some reminder notices in the entertainment street so that people can pay attention and seek medical treatment in time.

To avoid further spread of the disease."

Mayor Ewald Dursley can now be said to obey Fang Lang's words. After all, this is Mr. President's guest, so he still has to fawn over him.

He quickly said:

"No problem, I asked the health department to post notices on the entertainment street and spread the dangers of these diseases and early symptoms in newspapers, so that more people can detect and treat them early."

These matters are originally the work of government departments. If Fang Lang discovers the situation in the army and reports it to the government, he has completed his task.

Today he and Mayor Ewald Dursley made an appointment to visit the hospital. Of course, it was not just to investigate the spread and treatment of diseases outside.

The more important purpose is to investigate the medical market and see after the establishment of a military hospital in Natal.

Is there room for other hospitals to survive?

If it is not suitable, after Lilith graduates, she will have to consider whether to let her work in a military hospital or find another place to build a hospital.

"Dr. Basco Tapia, Mr. Mayor told me that you are the only hospital in Natal, but when I first came in, I found that there didn't seem to be many patients in the hospital. Why is that?"

p>

In Fang Lang's knowledge, the hospital has always had no shortage of patients, but today there were not many patients in Tapia Hospital.

Even if Natal is just a small town with a population of less than 200,000, it shouldn’t have only such a few patients!

Do the locals in Brazil believe in witch doctors more?

If this is the case, you will have to consider whether it is necessary for you to open the military hospital to the outside world.

It’s not that they are afraid of competing with Tapia Hospital for patients, but that such a small number of disease sources is simply not enough to support the development of a large hospital.

After hearing what Fang Lang said, Dr. Pasco Tapia glanced at Fang Lang with a strange expression and said:

"General Fang, it costs a lot of money to see a doctor in the hospital.

Our hospital has been open in Natal for thirty years.

In the beginning, it was just my private clinic. The scale was never large, and the only people who could come to the hospital for treatment were dignitaries.

Even within the first two years of opening, not a single patient other than Caucasian came to my clinic for treatment.

In recent years, as everyone's economic conditions have improved, more and more patients have been able to go to the hospital for treatment.

It was only four years ago that my hospital expanded to its current size!"

Such an answer is reasonable and unexpected.

"Then when other people are sick, where will they go for treatment?"
