Chapter 1044: Chapter 1044 No Incubation Period at All Chapter 1044: Chapter 1044 No Incubation Period at All Xi Mubai shook his head, “The fact that she’s still alive is already a miracle. I estimate she’ll never wake up in her lifeti.”
“Her lifeti?” Ruan Tianling frowned.
“Yes, it’s very likely that she’ll just continue to lie there, never waking up. If she does wake up, then that would be a miracle.”
“Damn it! Then why did I bother saving her?!” Ruan Tianling’s face darkened, if he had known earlier, he would not have saved her; it would have been better to let her die.
“What’s wrong? Why do you need her to wake up so badly?” Xi Mubai asked, puzzled.
Ruan Tianling shook his head, “It’s nothing… cough cough…”
“Do you have a cold?” Xi Mubai asked him.
Ruan Tianling looked at him and asked faintly, “Can soone without an immune system be cured?”
Xi Mubai’s eyes widened in shock, “Isn’t that like having AIDS?”
Ruan Tianling’s complexion shifted slightly, “AIDS?!”
“Yes, the HIV virus specifically attacks the human immune system. Who has been infected?”
Ruan Tianling’s jaw tensed; he knew about AIDS.
But his dical team hadn’t ntioned AIDS… If it was AIDS, there was no way they wouldn’t have been able to find out what virus it was…
Ruan Tianling rolled up his sleeve, “Test then.”
Xi Mubai’s face turned grave, “Is it you?”
“It’s not AIDS, but its function is almost the sa as AIDS…” Ruan Tianling said coldly.
In the laboratory, Xi Mubai quickly tested his blood.
He said solemnly, “Indeed, it’s not the AIDS virus, but this virus is also attacking your immune system. And they’re more fearso than AIDS…”
Ruan Tianling asked expressionlessly, “What’s the difference?”
“The HIV virus generally has an incubation period of 8-9 years within the human body. However, the virus in your body has no incubation period at all; that’s their biggest difference. Functionally, they’re the sa, destroying your immune system, making you susceptible to various diseases. Eventually, an assortnt of sicknesses will tornt you…”
Ruan Tianling clenched his fist, “Can it be treated?”
Xi Mubai shook his head, “Even the HIV virus can’t be cured, let alone this one. And since it has no incubation period, even if it could be cured, there wouldn’t be ti to develop a redy.”
Ruan Tianling said calmly, “My doctor said it can only be transmitted through blood.”
“Is that so? I’ll do further testing in a bit and see what the difference is from HIV. Since it’s not the HIV virus, it should be curable,” Xi Mubai reassured him.
But Ruan Tianling felt no relief whatsoever.
He even felt that it was simply incurable…
Thinking that his life would soon co to an end, a heavy weight seed to press upon his chest, making it unbearably heavy and painful.
Xi Mubai suggested in a serious tone, “It looks like you’ve only been infected for a few days. Now, while your body can still handle it, you should isolate yourself imdiately. In a sterile environnt, you can avoid being infected by various viruses.”
A cold smile tugged at Ruan Tianling’s mouth, “Are you saying I should be isolated for life?”
“That’s the only solution right now… Many people with HIV would consider it a luxury to be isolated for life…”
Ruan Tianling let out a cold laugh.
Yes, he had enough wealth to be isolated for a lifeti, but others couldn’t afford that; they could only wait quietly for death.
He could survive, and he should feel fortunate.
But he didn’t feel lucky at all.
To not have to die yet not wanting to live in agony, such a dilemma was indeed more painful.
