Academician Zhang Boli, Chinese medicine father and son fight against epidemic in Wuhan

Yangtze River Daily-Yangtze River News (Reporter Hu Yihua) Father and son are on the front line of the epidemic. Two men from the family came to Wuhan from Tianjin.

On January 27, the third day of the new year, my father was rushed to Wuhan by the Central Epidemic Prevention Guidance Group. As a Chinese medicine expert of the Central Steering Group, the "national team" in charge of Chinese medicine took over the Jiangxia Hospital.

On the hind foot, the son also came.

On February 21, he took the initiative to ask for help, and his son also came to the front line of anti-epidemic in Wuhan. In the "Tianyi Ward" of Jiangxia Fangcai Hospital, patients were treated with traditional Chinese medicine.

In the afternoon of March 10, Jiangxia Fangcai Hospital formally "off-class". With more than 500 patients in Jiangxia's cabin, none of them became severe, which was the biggest victory.

By March 15th, the father and son fought side by side for more than 20 days. They only met once and spent less than 10 minutes together.

Father surgery

Don't forget to tell his son to be optimistic about the patient

Zhang Boli, 72, academician of the Chinese Academy of Engineering, president of Tianjin University of Traditional Chinese Medicine, and expert of Chinese medicine in the central steering group.

Zhang Lei, 45, is the Deputy Director of Rheumatology and Immunology of the First Affiliated Hospital of Tianjin University of Chinese Medicine, and the Executive Dean of the Fourth Affiliated Hospital of Tianjin University of Chinese Medicine and the Traditional Chinese Medicine Hospital of Binhai New Area. The twelfth batch of assistance to Tianjin medical team members in Tianjin, the fourth batch of assistance to Tianjin Medical University First Affiliated Hospital, the fourth batch of assistance to Wuhan medical team temporary party branch secretary and captain.

On February 18, the first three days before Zhang Lei's initiative to apply to come to Wuhan to fight the epidemic. At 11 o'clock that night, Zhang Lei, who was working on the night shift of the Fourth Affiliated Hospital of Tianjin University of Traditional Chinese Medicine to prevent and control the epidemic, received a call.

On the phone, an expert from the Central Epidemic Prevention and Control Steering Group told him: "Academician Zhang Boli now needs to perform laparoscopic cholecystectomy at Wuhan Xiehe Hospital overnight to ask your family members for advice." A member of the expert group told him.

The heart trembled suddenly.

At this time, Gao Xiumei, executive vice president of Tianjin University of Traditional Chinese Medicine, also called Zhang Lei to discuss the operation.

Urgent situation! Worry is inevitable. As a doctor and a party member, Zhang Lei immediately made a decision: "We obey the organizational arrangements."

Later, he made a small request: "After my father's operation is completed, please give me a call and report a peace."

Time passes by every minute. Zhang Lei did not dare to rest, anxiously waiting for news more than 1,000 kilometers away.

At 4 am the next day, Wuhan called and the operation was successful. On the way back to the ward, Zhang Lei and his father talked on the phone. Although his voice was a bit weak, he learned that Zhang Lei had taken the initiative to come to Wuhan to participate in the first-line anti-epidemic. . "

Refuse to visit

Father asks son to take care of patient directly

At about 4 pm on February 21, Zhang Lei brought 15 members, including himself, to Wuhan. This is the fifth batch of Chinese medical teams in the country, the twelfth batch of medical aid teams in Tianjin, and the fourth batch of medical teams sent by the First Affiliated Hospital of Tianjin University of Traditional Chinese Medicine.

After leaving the Wuhan Railway Station, Zhang Leiying remembered his father after the operation and wanted to see it. At my ear, I remembered my father's instructions, "Observe the organizational arrangements, don't come to see me, go straight to the patient."

Zhang Lei said that he was the captain of the medical team of the Han Dynasty. He could not hold back and went directly to Jiangxia Fangcai Hospital.

The medical team is responsible for the "Tianyi Ward" of Jiangxia Fangcai Hospital. As the director of the ward, Zhang Lei devoted himself to work. Taking a patient's throat swab is the most dangerous job in the "red zone." Zhang Lei always does it himself, "I should rush ahead. The directors of all wards do this. What makes me special?" Zhang Lei said.

In Wuhan, Zhang Lei, who returned to the station at night, called his father and wanted to take a look. After all, my father was old and had just had surgery in Wuhan, but he was still rejected by his father, "You are the best comfort for me when you are optimistic about your patient."

Fight side by side

Father and son only met for more than 20 days

On March 10, Jiangxia Fangcai Hospital was suspended. At 8 o'clock in the morning, Zhang Lei took his team members into the "Tianyi Ward." More than 30 patients in the ward were cured and discharged, and entered a 14-day isolation observation period. Zhang Boli, the honorary president of Jiangxia Fangcai Hospital, also came to the hospital that day.

Team members Zhang Wentao and Meng Yan advised Zhang Lei, "Captain, it is very meaningful to take a class today. We want to take a photo with the principal (referring to Zhang Boli)!" On the lawn outside Fangcai Hospital, Zhang Lei saw his father and walked over and said: "Principal, in the name of the captain, please take a photo with our team members in the past."

After coming to Wuhan for more than 20 days, Zhang Lei really saw his father. Zhang Boli said to the person in charge of Jiangxia District, "I'm sorry, this is my child!"

The father and son walked from the lawn to the entrance of the square cabin hospital, about 20 meters. "Are you okay?" "Well, don't worry about me. Now that you're on hold, you and your team members should not relax your vigilance, but also keep in close contact with the patients who have been discharged from the hospital."

"Our father and son met each other for less than 10 minutes." Zhang Lei said, the father most tells him not to relax. Zhang Lei knew that the defense of Wuhan was entering a critical period, and his father had a lot to do.

Occasionally, Zhang Lei encountered some cases and would still call his father for advice.

In the battlefield against epidemics, the father and son talked in an airspace, and the two healers resonated at the same frequency.

Preach by word

Family support on Wuhan front line

Even at the age of 72, Academician Zhang Boli insisted on having three and a half days outpatient clinics in Tianjin every week.

Occasionally, because of the busy schedule, he would tell the hospital to inform the patients that he would come to the hospital from 7 to 10 pm, and that he must read all the admired patients.

Zhang Lei looked in his eyes and remembered in his heart. The 45-year-old, the father of his memory, was always busy returning home late. That year, my mother said, "You apply for medical school, just like your father."

Zhang Lei, who has been a doctor, has always followed his father as an example, respecting medical ethics and studying medical ethics.

He took the initiative to invite me to Wuhan this time. He didn't tell his 75-year-old mother initially, "After all, two men in the family are on the front line of epidemic resistance, and it cannot be said that there is no danger at all." But if he didn't come to Wuhan, Zhang Lei felt sorry for himself. "I'm a party member and a doctor. There is no reason not to come."

Afterwards, the mother knew that Zhang Lei came to Wuhan and did not complain. Instead, she encouraged Zhang Lei: "You are in Wuhan, and you will treat the patient well." The lover who graduated from nursing also gave Zhang Lei support, "You must come back safely ! "

This is Zhang Lei's second visit to Wuhan. Many years ago, he came to Wuhan to hold an academic conference. He once walked across the Yangtze River Bridge and visited the Yellow Crane Tower. He knows that there are many beautiful attractions in Wuhan and many heroic characters.

When the epidemic is over, you must take a good look at the cherry blossoms at Wuhan University, look at East Lake, and take a closer look at this heroic city.

Zhang Lei and colleagues are looking forward.

[Reporter's Notes]

"Interview" five interviews

Please take the initiative to come from Tianjin to the front line of anti-epidemic in Wuhan.

Interviewing Dr. Zhang Lei was not easy.

At 1 am on March 10, through various contacts, Zhang Lei's mobile phone number was found. The medical staff worked hard, and I was inconvenienced. I tried to add Zhang Lei's WeChat with my mobile phone number and identify myself.

At 6:56 am, Zhang Lei passed my WeChat request. He wrote me a message, "Mr. Hu, the cabin is closed today, I have a lot of work, I'm really sorry, I'll contact you when I'm free."

Treatment is the first priority. I left a message for Zhang Lei: "Thank you and your colleagues for your support in Wuhan! Please contact us when you are free."

The next day, Zhang Lei left a message again, "Sorry, Mr. Hu, received a new task and went to see the venue. We're sorry to make another appointment."

As a reporter, I can understand. At this moment, thousands of medical staff like Zhang Lei are fighting the front line of anti-epidemic in Wuhan to relieve the suffering of patients.

Wuhan wins, Hubei wins; Hubei wins, China wins.

On the afternoon of the third day, Zhang Lei called back to me, "I'm busy at the Fangcai Station. I'll tell you later. Teacher Hu, just call me Doctor Zhang."

Waiting is actually a hope.

The busy medical staff is for us to meet as soon as possible.

At 1 pm on March 15th, after "missing" five times, I finally met Zhang Lei.

At this time, the sun was just right.

After an hour of conversation, we had an agreement.

"I invite you to come to my house next time you come to Wuhan. I invite you to eat hot and dry noodles."

"Looking forward to your visit to Tianjin, I will accompany you to visit Haihe."

This agreement is already on the agenda.
