After thinking it through, Su Wanqiao said, "I remember that many of the protective clothing and masks produced by major brands like Lannuo, Feisite, and Yingshi's during the pandemic were substandard. Some of these companies also had serious illegal business practices. As for other smaller brands, they probably had similar practices, but I don't know the details. You'll have to investigate for yourself."
The man nodded slightly, listening very attentively to Su Wanqiao's words.
"Also, there are high-priced drugs like acetaminophen, ibuprofen, and aspirin. These drugs are expensive and hard to find. You just need to prepare in advance. As long as prevention and control measures are done well in advance, there won't be any speculation on exorbitantly priced drugs."
Su Wanqiao felt that with the Fu Family's current capabilities, developing a specific antiviral drug for the flu ahead of schedule wouldn't be a problem. Compared to such a drug, other cold medicines would only be supplementary, and wouldn't be subject to the frenzy of panic buying like in the drama. The reason people were hoarding medicine was because they were desperate and would try anything, not knowing which medicines would be effective for their condition, and could only use antipyretics and cold medicines to relieve symptoms.
She knew that some patients were completely unresponsive to ordinary medications and could only endure the torment of the flu, eventually recovering on their own.
Folk remedies, traditional prescriptions, and Chinese medicine—anything that people hear will be effective in the future—will be willing to give it a try, with the sole purpose of saving their lives.
It's heartbreaking to see.
The current situation is definitely different. They also have the advantage of time; knowing the plot in advance gives them a much greater chance of controlling the overall situation.
Fu Huaiyan heard these sentiments clearly and could empathize with them.
The best course of action now is to develop a specific and effective drug.
Because Su Wanqiao had given her a heads-up: Dr. Luo and his team had previously developed a vaccine project that was forced to be discontinued because it was unprofitable and resulted in significant losses.
It's also a coincidence that this undeveloped vaccine happens to be able to prevent the F1 Virus.
Dr. Luo and his team have now restarted the development of this vaccine, and are studying a wider range of viruses than in the original experiments.
While this vaccine wasn't specifically developed to target the F1A Virus, the F1A Strain is a mutation of a traditional circulating virus strain, so everything is traceable. Even if this vaccine isn't 100% effective, it still provides 80% protection. Moreover, the Fa1 Virus underwent 4-5 mutations during the pandemic, which is sufficient for nationwide prevention and control.
The main focus is on effective drugs for influenza.
No matter how many times the virus strain mutates, how many times a patient is infected, or how many antibodies they have in their body, there are always effective flu medications.
Moreover, this medicine helps patients reduce fever immediately, minimizing the damage the virus causes to the body.
This is the problem that Fu Huaiyan is currently concerned about.
The research and development has been underway for a long time. In addition to Dr. Luo and his team, a top-notch team of hundreds of scientists from all over the world has been assembled at great expense. Fu Huaiyan has great confidence in them.
The couple were chatting when the phone suddenly rang. It was Fu Huaiyan calling. When he answered and heard the message from the other end, his eyes lit up instantly, and his face was full of surprise.
He hung up the phone a moment later.
Suppressing his excitement, Fu Huaiyan took a deep breath and calmly spoke to Su Wanqiao.
"They have made significant new progress in their research on a specific treatment for the influenza Fn Mutant Strain. This drug is completely different from other drugs; it is effective against 99% of influenza viruses, and experiments have shown that it is four times more effective than ordinary drugs against most influenza strains. Although no experiments have been conducted using the Fn1 Strain yet, it has shown some effectiveness against strains of the same family."
Su Wanqiao was overjoyed to hear this; the research had made progress in such a short time.
She finally realized that with money and power, things that ordinary people couldn't even achieve, were incredibly easy for the Fu Family to do.
With this kind of development, a miracle drug will definitely be developed, and those ordinary cold medicines will be nothing compared to it.
This is truly a positive development; this time, most ordinary people are saved from the pandemic.
On the other side, Fu Yuze immediately began practicing the techniques of the actress filming in Hengdian, following Su Wanqiao's instructions.
However, he was turned away. The other party was a celebrity with a special status, and the matter was so strange that no matter what he said, the other party simply wouldn't believe him.
The female celebrity only experienced occasional abdominal pain, with no other obvious symptoms, which she attributed to unhealthy eating habits. She simply couldn't believe that Dr. Fu Yuze had suddenly come to her and told her the terrifying news that she had a malignant tumor.
However, she was still a little scared and planned to have a full physical examination after filming the movie.
Fu Yuze couldn't wait any longer, because the female celebrity was filming an outdoor scene today, and Jiang Ruoning was also filming at the same location. He guessed that since they were both outdoor scenes, there must be an important plot development happening.
It's highly likely that Jiang Ruoning saved the other party at this moment, but the circumstances are quite different.
If Jiang Ruoning were to save the other person, she would likely find another doctor to perform the surgery.
Fu Yuze, on the other hand, was determined to secure this patient. He was confident he could perform the surgery on her with minimal cost, because Su Wanqiao had mentioned that the female celebrity's only request was to avoid leaving scars.
The modified minimally invasive laparoscopic surgery perfectly meets this requirement.
Because other traditional surgeries will definitely leave scars.
Just then, he used his connections with the Fu Family to get to the film set and find the other party.
The female celebrity's name is Yan Qiuran.
Although Fu Yuze seemed a little impatient, they couldn't afford to offend the Fu Family, so they could only stiffly and politely say, "Fourth Young Master, I've already said I'm fine. I'll go for a medical check-up when I have time. I'm extremely busy filming right now and simply don't have the time. I have work to do. If there's nothing else, please excuse me."
