Chapter 221 Gold Plated

Franceston is located in the eastern part of Botswana, close to the Zimbabwe border... Yes, it is the country of Zimbabwean currency.

This was once the earliest gold rush center in Africa, with a population of about 200,000 now, and the number of officially registered AIDS patients is as high as 85,000, up to 42.5%, which is so terrifying.

I don’t know if it’s because it’s close to Zimbabwe, so it’s even more chaotic.

Franceston is about 450㎞ from the capital Gaborone, and Zhou Wen and his team set off at 12 noon.

The bus heads eastward.

After passing through the British country house-style complex in the capital, the scenery along the way became more majestic and beautiful.

When the vast grassland appeared in my eyes, most of the young people in the car who had never come to Africa lie down on the window and started watching.

Some people couldn't help but exclaim.

Bozwana is like a country with filters on it, it is simply beautiful.

Each place is as beautiful as a photographer's photo.

Of course, the good natural environment protection in this country has a lot to do with the small population.

Bozwana has a land area of ​​580,000 square kilometers, which is larger than a Sichuan province and a Tianfu in China, but its population is only 2.2 million.

How many people are combined in Sichuan Province and Tianfu?

In 2019, the permanent population of Sichuan Province was 83.75 million, and Tianfu was 3124.

The two combined are 990,000 people.

The 4.99 million digits of digits are more than double that of Bozwana.

So when there are too many people, it is naturally difficult to manage some things.

Zhou Wen and Wei Dong sat at the end.

Wei Dong has led his team to Africa for international assistance many times, and is very familiar with the customs and culture here. He introduced Zhou Wen to the situation here along the way.

“In addition to AIDS, Bozwana has one of the highest tuberculosis rates in the world.

Because its HIV incidence is very high, and once the immune system is severely weakened, tuberculosis, which is an infectious bacteria, begins to spread and eventually leads to death…”

Wei Dong paused for a moment and said, "In addition, cryptococcal meningitis induced by HV is also very serious in Bozwana. According to incomplete statistics, in 2018, about 47,000 patients died of cryptococcal meningitis in Bozwana, accounting for 7.9% of the death toll in this disease in Africa."

"There are so many..."

Zhou Wen was shocked when he heard this.

He has read relevant data before, and there are about 1 million new infections worldwide every year, while in sub-Saharan Africa, about 600,000 people die from this disease every year.

However, data is always data. When all this is in front of you and within your eyes, the shock is unparalleled.

Wei Dong nodded: "This data is official, and the actual number of deaths should be more than 100%."

Zhou Wen didn't know what to say for a moment.

"It's amazing that you can successfully clone the serum cells of cryptococcal disease, just like artemisinin in the past to malaria." Wei Dong sighed.

Zhou Wen said modestly: "You have over-rewarded!"

"Nothing is a reward! This is a fact. In the future, many people will be grateful for your invention." Wei Dong said, and said, "By the way, when will the vaccine be put into the market?"

Zhou Wen: "Well, it will take about a year, mainly because the technical equipment requirements for mass production are relatively high."

"Yeah, I know..."

The two of them chatted all the way.

Bus drivers should often take one route, and the car drives quickly and steadily.

There are not many high-rise buildings along the way, all of which are planned neatly tidy buildings. They are very beautiful. You can imagine that they will be full of brilliance at night.

Exotic style, swaying first.

They arrived in Franceston before six o'clock in the afternoon.

They lived in the southern suburbs, a large mansion surrounded by rows of country houses similar to those of the United Kingdom.

It can be seen from the house that this should be the residential area of ​​the rich in Franceston... No, although the gap between the rich and the poor in Bozwana is very large, and ordinary people only cost five or six hundred dollars a month, it seems that they live in such a mansion of hundreds of square meters.

The house really doesn't show the rich or poor.

Then there were arrangements for accommodation, dinner, etc.... noisy.

Everyone was very excited.

After dinner, some members asked to take a walk nearby, but were strictly prohibited by Wei Dong.

No one can act without permission.

Someone in the team was dissatisfied with this and whispered.

Wei Dong turned a deaf ear and turned around and walked towards his bedroom.

Zhou Wen followed, "Wait a minute...Professor Wei."

Wei Dong seemed to know that Zhou Wen would come over, and after Zhou Wen came in, he said, "Close the door."

Upon hearing this, Zhou Wen closed the door behind him.

Wei Dong walked to the window and pulled up the glass... The glass was upward, and there was a dense forest outside, which was blue under the illumination of incandescent lamps around him.

The urban clusters in the distance are as he expected, very beautiful. Several skyscrapers located in them exude dazzling brilliance, which is simply unparalleled.

Wei Dong took out the bag from his pocket and large front door, pulled out one and threw it to Zhou Wen, "Sit down."

Seeing this, Zhou Wen sat down and wanted to light a fire for Wei Dong. But as soon as he touched his pocket, he remembered that he gave it to Wang Wu before boarding the plane. He didn't buy it after landing. He had borrowed someone else's fire in Gaborone.

Wei Dong smiled, took out a disposable lighter, and helped Zhou Wen light it.

"Ahem..." Wei Dong cleared his throat after taking a cigarette and said, "Why do you think we came to Bozwana?"

"Uh..." Zhou Wen was stunned for a moment, thinking that Bozwana had the most AIDS patients, so he naturally had to come here to provide assistance.

But when I think about it, Bozwana's AIDS patients are indeed the number one in the world... But what does this have to do with them?

The country has money, but the actual GDP per capita is far higher than China. Everyone lives in try houses. If it comes to aid, Bozwana is still the same for them to help them.

Seeing that Zhou Wen did not speak, Wei Dong said: "This aid operation is not planned, and many things are in a hurry... Let's come here just to go through the motions."

"you mean……"

Zhou Wen thought of the performance of the players just now, and suddenly understood something. A large number of the players may come to gilt.

It is precisely because of this that the leaders above chose Bozwana, a country with politically stable and well-official security, to provide assistance just in case.

Even his personal safety is within the consideration of the upper-level leaders.

Thinking of this, Zhou Wen was so amused and laughed.

Wei Dong smiled and said, "Yes! What I mean is what you mean, just know what I mean."

"But..." Zhou Wen wanted to say something, but he swallowed it again when he spoke, nodded, "I understand, just think it's here to travel."

...

After breakfast the next morning, the group, led by Wei Dong, went to the Municipal Hospital in Franceston.

On the way, Zhou Wen noticed that except for Li Feng and Dong Wenying he brought, the others looked very relaxed, and they were chatting and laughing all the way, and many people took out their mobile phones to take photos.

It doesn't look like aid from Africa, it looks like traveling.

Zhou Wen finally understood why he went to Africa to assist such a major task, and the time span was as long as 3 months, and the system only gave him a reward of 50,000 experience values.

Come and play for a while and give you 50,000 experience points. It's a conscience system.

But no matter what, it is always a good thing to not take risks in those dangerous areas.
