Chapter 855: Master Nordmark, What Project Do You Want to Apply For? Fill It in However You Like!

The second day of sailing.

There were 500 passengers in the bottom cabin, 158 people were vomiting, and no cases of diarrhea were observed yet. It is speculated that the main cause of vomiting is seasickness.

Bottom cabin passengers are not allowed to leave the cabin or go on deck.

The bilge commode tipped once.

The fortune-telling technique did not observe anyone entering a state of near-death.

The third day of sailing.

In the third level wave (as informed by the chief mate), 247 people suffered from vomiting and 2 people suffered from diarrhea. It is speculated that the main cause of vomiting is seasickness.

The bilge commode did not tip over.

Patients with diarrhea have no fever symptoms.

The fortune-telling technique did not observe anyone entering a state of near-death.

The fourth day of sailing.

The wind and waves calmed down to Level 2. There were 129 cases of vomiting and 3 cases of diarrhea.

The bilge commode tipped once.

Patients with diarrhea have no fever symptoms.

The fortune-telling technique did not observe anyone entering a state of near-death.

On the fifth day of sailing, we arrived in port.

Gretel closed the notebook and let out a long sigh.

Thanks to the existence of spells, he could often throw a secret spell under his eyes instead of looking at it several times a day despite the stench;

Thanks to the existence of fortune-telling, he could find out immediately if anyone was seriously ill;

Even... Thanks to him being an eighth-level mage, he would take a look from time to time. At least when the ship distributed food to these poor people, they would not be too deductible or treat them too badly...

He stood on the edge of the deck and activated his fortune-telling technique. He watched the poor people walk out of the dark and narrow cabin and walked onto the deck wearing clothes that were much dirtier than before they boarded the ship. Their faces were much paler than before they boarded the ship. , walked into the port.

Under the vision given by the fortune-telling technique, a deep and shallow aura of life shows that the health status of these people should be good.

At least, there is no one who is dying of illness and dying, with the God of Death hovering above his head with a sickle, ready to harvest anytime and anywhere.

Grete walked out with the crowd. This group of Aiolan poor people were first brought to a circled open space, where their heads were nodded by the logistics officer on the ship, and handed over to the reception staff of the parliament. Then, people came to collect them one after another:

"Thomas Warner, a hundred men!"

Someone handed me a sign. The receiving staff checked, nodded, and waved behind:

"Go and get it. Receive it in batches, no picking and choosing!"

Gretel saw him leading a group of people away...it was inevitable to pick and choose among them, pushing out a few who were particularly thin and pulling out a few who were stronger. I stuffed a small bag into the receiving staff and no one said anything.

But all in all, a group of people were brought down, no isolation, no quarantine, no pause. Count the points in place, pull them away in place, pull them directly to...

workshop?

Factory?

mine?

Anyway, it is a labor-intensive place with dense workers, poor treatment and poor environment. It is conceivable that if a few of these poor people in Aiolan carry infectious diseases in the incubation period...

Then it was only a matter of time before the disease broke out in Nevis.

And if it is a colony in the New World that is more distant, has worse healing power, and has a more fragile social environment... Before setting off from the seaport, Gretel used his secret vision to see several ships carrying immigrants, and their accommodation conditions were not much better. .

How many of these immigrants will die if they are transported there?

Gretel doesn't know. All he knew was that he couldn't go on like this.

These are human lives!

"Serila, you go back to the Mage Tower first, I'll go find the teacher!"

Grete warned, activated the [Endless Ink Pen], and flew to the top of Igor Peak in an instant. After listening to his statement, the Lord of Thunder did not comment, but said lightly:

"Go and talk to the judges."

Gretel knew that the teacher's attitude basically meant disapproval or disapproval, and he could do whatever he wanted. Maybe it costs too much, maybe there isn't enough evidence, maybe there are other difficulties...

But no matter what, it was a problem that he, an eighth-level mage, could face and solve independently. Then, as a teacher, you don’t have to worry too much.

Gretel bid farewell to the teacher and went to the review meeting to report on the performance of the task and make suggestions. The middle-aged female mage who gave him the task before listened carefully to his suggestion and evaluated it seriously:

"Mage Nordmark, your suggestion is indeed very good. Your ability in treatment is also obvious to the parliament..."

but? Grete answered silently in her heart. Sure enough, the rotating committee member of the Plastic Energy Department said quietly:

"But you have to know that each of your suggestions requires additional investment. People, materials, and money will all be summed up in the end, which is the input-output ratio."

Grete nodded silently. By the same token, he has seen too much in the medical field:

Medical care is not only about treating illnesses and saving lives, it is also an economic account.

Specifically, whether each person and each family can afford medical treatment and whether it is cost-effective to spend the money is something that every family must consider. It is also something that doctors must consider at all times when giving treatment plans. things;

At the macro level, public health policies for the entire society and medical insurance reimbursement plans are said to benefit everyone, but in fact, they are also intended to increase the benefits of the entire society.

The overall medical expenditure of a society is closely related to the level of social development and the degree of public fiscal surplus. Excessively increasing medical insurance expenses is not a good thing.

He took a deep breath:

"I understand. - So, can I apply for a research project to study the transfer plan of immigrants, how to reduce their mortality, and the isolation and quarantine plan for immigrants and disaster victims after they arrive?"

"Okay." The member of the Plastic Energy Department smiled lightly. She scribbled a note, put her own secret mark on it, and handed it to Gretel:

"However, this research direction is not under the control of the Plasticity Department. You can go next door and find the review committee of the Conjuration Department. Medical treatment has always been their field."

Very good, so the plasticity department is responsible for killing and violent forts. The nobles of Roscombe County were looking for trouble last time, so they let me out to calm things down, right?

With topics related to medical treatment, isolation and quarantine, and public health, you immediately sent me to the medical direction?

Gretel thanked her and went to the next door with the note to knock on the door. Gretel, this year’s rotating committee member of the Conjuration Department, seemed a little familiar. He stood up as soon as he saw him:

"Mage Nordmark! Long time no see. Do you have any new projects? Do you want to apply to the review committee?"

Gretel:? ? ?

"Ah, I am a disciple of Master Bielsa. I helped the teacher with the last CT project - I reviewed many papers in "Medical Research" first..."

Ah, it turned out to be one of our own. Grete immediately smiled and handed over the note:

"That's it. I want to apply for a fast-track project to study the necessity of improving immigration transfer treatment and establishing isolation and quarantine..."

"Ah, this, no problem." The review committee member immediately pulled out a blank page of document without thinking:

"Let me take a look at this year's budget... The budget is not too tight, but fortunately, this project can still be allocated. How much research funding do you need? 1,000 contribution points? 2,000?"

Gretel: "..."

I mainly want an official authorization to prove the legitimacy of the research, which will be convenient when I make reports to promote policy changes in the future. And, if possible, someone can tell me...

Where can I find the original data I need, such as how many people the Kingdom of Kent transports to the New World each year, what the transportation conditions are like, the death rate, etc.?

Thanks to x-on:Strong Sea Monster for finding me the paper...

I said yesterday that I couldn't find a paper on the mortality rate of the black slave trade, so he found it for me. It was 60 pages, all in English. He really looked up to me...

I stumbled through the reading with the help of pdf underlined translation...
