2003年初,身在黑龙江省大庆市的瑶族医生覃迅云获悉广东正在流传一种怪病:高热不退、浑身酸痛、干咳少痰、胸闷气促。隐约之间,他觉得这很像过去听说的“痧瘴”。医生职业的责任感促使他翻阅了先人留下的医案,并以此给广西4位疑似非典的同乡邮寄了瑶药,他们服用后病情得到控制。这个时候,他还不知道,自己直接参与防治的是非典——一种烈性传染病。 In early 2003, Yao Xunyun, a Yao doctor who was in Daqing City, Heilongjiang Province, was informed that a strange disease was circulating in Guangdong: high fever, pain, cough and phlegm, and chest tightness and shortness of breath. Vaguely, he thought it was like listening to the past “痧 瘴 ”. The doctor’s professional sense of responsibility led him to read through the medical records left by his ancestors and thus sent Yao medicine to four suspected SARS relatives in Guangxi and their condition was brought under control. At this time, he did not know that he was directly involved in the prevention and treatment of SARS - a strong infectious disease.
