If it weren't for the many critically ill patients here, she could keep the mortality rate below one percent.
Cure? And control the spread of the epidemic, even keep the death rate among the sick below ten percent? It's the patients she's talking about, not the total population. What does she plan to do?
As Gu Youyou finished speaking, all eyes in the room turned to the only female doctor in the group.
The expressions in the room were complex, a mix of surprise, mockery, skepticism, pity, and more, yet no one believed.
"Doctor Gu!" Marquess Yue, seated high above, suddenly spoke, "I know of your exceptional talent and your medical skills are not bad, but this is a serious epidemic. I do not expect a cure - just control over the spread of the disease and to prevent excessive innocent casualties."
Gu Youyou's expression remained unchanged. She bowed again and said, "If the Marquess doesn't trust me, I can issue a military decree."
