The name Vibrio vulnificus sounds very strange, and the clerks present and several old customers who followed to see it lively are not even sure which four words.

If Zhang Zi'an said that any animal is poisonous, even if the fish that scratched Zhao Welder ’s palm yesterday seemed to be non-toxic, in fact, the genetic mutation was poisoned, Zhao Welder and Wu Dian would surely be convinced, but the bacteria ... sounds like It's too mysterious.

In everyone's knowledge, the most susceptible to infection is tetanus after injury. What is this ghost of Vibrio vulnificus?

Zhang Zi'an knew that if he didn't explain clearly, it would be impossible for Zhao Welder, who was even heavier than a donkey, to go to the hospital obediently, so he patiently explained the ins and outs of Vibrio vulnificus.

There are about ninety species of Vibrio, most of which have no direct harm to the human body, so Zhang Zi'an only knows this type of Vibrio, after all, this Vibrio is closely related to marine life.

Vibrio vulnificus was only taken out as a new pathogen in 1976, and it has only gradually received people's attention since then.

This vibrio can only live in seawater, is halophilic and likes high temperatures. Generally, when the temperature is higher than 30 degrees Celsius, the temperature of the seawater will also be higher than 20 degrees Celsius. Infections occur in temperate summers or most of the year in tropical and subtropical areas.

As long as the temperature is appropriate, the distribution of Vibrio vulnificus in the sea is extremely widespread. Whether it is eating undercooked seafood or a damaged wound comes into contact with seawater, it may be infected with Vibrio vulnificus. Some developed countries have already indicated the relevant on the seafood label. caveat.

Having said that, healthy people have sufficient resistance, but they are not very likely to be infected with Vibrio vulnificus, and the high-risk people are men with chronic liver disease who live by the sea.

That's right, young women are rarely infected with Vibrio vulnificus due to the protection of estrogen in the body. It can only be said that the younger sister is treated preferentially everywhere, and even the bacteria are open to the younger sister network ...

However, when women get older and the level of estrogen in the body drops, the chance of infection will be closer to that of men. This is the so-called ancient bacteria such as beauties.

The reason why it is emphasized is that people living near the sea face greater danger, because only people living near the sea have the opportunity to eat fresh seafood that is just out of the water, and only then can they have the chance to be infected with food by Vibrio vulnificus, especially In the process of handling seafood, such as hurting your hands while scraping the scales and removing your internal organs ... but people living in the Mainland, because the seafood they eat are frozen, there is no possibility of being infected with food by Vibrio vulnificus.

A well-known common sense, no matter how salty the seawater, once it is frozen, it will be desalted into fresh water. The high-temperature and salt-loving Vibrio vulnificus is wrapped in ice and soon freezes to death.

It can only be said that while people living by the sea are enjoying the most delicious natural taste of seafood, they are also at risk of being infected by this terrible bacterium.

As Wu Dianchao said, how many elderly retirees are completely healthy? There are more or less chronic diseases, and young people are basically sub-healthy.

Zhao Welder likes to drink, Zhang Zi'an did not see his medical report, but he is expected to have a certain degree of alcoholic liver, which is more common in middle-aged and elderly men retired at the factory.

Middle-aged and elderly men with unhealthy livers have determined that Zhao Welder belongs to the group most likely to be infected with Vibrio vulnificus.

The terrible part of Vibrio vulnificus is that the onset is fast. It can be fatal within 48 hours from the beginning of the infection. Due to the relatively small number of cases, the mortality rate is generally estimated to be more than 40%. If the treatment is not timely, it will save lives. It is also likely to have to amputate; the second is that this bacterium is too little understood by humans, and humans are not even sure about its pathogenic mechanism, and even the medical school will not even mention this bacterium.

Because little is known about Vibrio vulnificus, infected people are often as indifferent as Zhao Welder after the onset of the disease, and the best treatment time is missed. Even if they go to the hospital for treatment, doctors may adopt the wrong treatment because of their ignorance of the disease. It can even be said that the cases of this disease are rare, not because there are so few infected people, but because some of them are dead without any knowledge.

It makes sense that the lethality of Vibrio vulnificus is so high, not to say how explosive it is. Some bacteria on land are more rampant than it, but humans are animals that live on land. The immune system has almost no orientation to bacteria in the sea. Immunity, unlike the flu, changes the pattern almost every year, because if the flu virus does not change the pattern, the human immune system may not be afraid of the flu.

This is like the first time a cat has lost dog blood ~ www.wuxiaspot.com ~ The cat's immune system is ignorant of dog blood cells, so it does not produce a rejection reaction, but it has quietly marked the characteristics of dog blood cells. If you dare to lose a second time, The immune system is under pressure in minutes.

In summer, everyone likes to go to the beach to play water, cool off the heat, and enjoy the sights. When you have fun, you always forget the terrible sea. There are various dangers hidden in the sea, not only the shark jellyfish on the bright surface. The reef is frenzy, and even the inhabitants of the microcosm, which are invisible to the naked eye, are always ready to invade the human body.

Zhang Zi'an briefly explained the horrors of Vibrio vulnificus. Hearing even the carefree Zhao Welder, his face was bloodless. They always mocked themselves and only half stepped into the coffin, but they really faced When death is in danger, who does not cherish their lives?

"Lao Zhao! Why are you still sitting? Go to the hospital!" Wu Dian first responded, grabbing the welder's arm and pulling it out, "Xiao Zhang, the rest of the work is waiting for me to come and do it later, you don't need to tube……"

"wait!"

Zhang Zi'an ran back to the second floor, and took out a few tablets from the medicine cabinet and handed them to Zhao Welder. The attitude can be tough, otherwise some health care workers may be indifferent because they do not understand the bacteria. "

At this point, Zhao Welder had lost his mind and took medicine with mineral water without thinking. He didn't even ask, and fumbled out his cell phone. "I ... I want to call my wife ..."

"Oh! Usually you are in full swing, at this time your mother-in-law is here!" Wu Dian hated stealing the cell phone, "Go to the hospital first! Let's go!"

Wu Dianyuan dragged and pulled Zhao Welder out of the shop like a dead dog, waved his hand to stop a taxi, and went straight to the nearest hospital.
