Chapter 1523: 1132 Chapter Donating also requires queuing_2
Tang Shun saw Yang Ping in the plastic surgery departnt that day, but before he could speak, Song Zimo stepped in. Later, due to Luo Jin’s case, Yang Ping and Song Zimo hurried back to the departnt, leaving Tang Shun without a chance to speak.
After completing the discussion on Luo Jin’s case, Tang Shun finally seized the opportunity to report to Yang Ping on the recruitnt of volunteers for the K virus therapy. Now, all 120 volunteers for the phase one clinical trial are in place and are organized and disciplined without the need for the institute to manage these volunteer teams.
Tang Shun now understands a principle: various people in society, if used properly, can sotis play a significant role. Although these people are streetwise, they are just looking to earn money and have no ill intentions, so they can be cooperatively utilized.
Since the volunteer team is already set up, Yang Ping decided to start the phase one clinical trial as soon as Luo Jin’s treatnt ends, without further delay.
Tang Shun suggested whether a specialized clinical trial departnt could be established for standardized managent of clinical trials. After talking extensively with Manager Yang, he realized that recruiting volunteers is not as simple as imagined. Posting a notice online didn’t suffice as very few volunteers signed up, and those who did were unqualified. Manager Yang managed to recruit 200 qualified volunteers in just one day. Therefore, recruiting volunteers is quite a professional task.
Yang Ping gladly agreed with Tang Shun’s proposal, but the clinical trial departnt would require coordination among the institute’s clinical ward, laboratory, and hospital leadership to be established, as this involves so ethical issues. That’s why Tang Shun consulted Yang Ping, who assured him to proceed, promising to handle the hospital’s side of things.
The clinical trial departnt will establish a recruitnt division responsible for recruiting qualified clinical trial volunteers. Phase one, two, and three clinical trials all require self-recruitnt of volunteers. By phase four, the biological agents are already on the market, and the main task of the clinical trials is extensive clinical observation, so standardized clinical trial recruitnt managent is very important. Currently, many clinical trial tasks are outsourced to makeshift teams; Manager Yang is essentially such a team, and Tang Shun wants to train him well to take on the recruitnt duties.
In the following days, the frequency of Luo Jin’s seizures decreased. The hibernation therapy was very effective in protecting the brain, and this ti the dosage seed quite suitable. The edema was kept at a relatively low level, and the speed and rhythm of the process of tumor cell death–edema–absorption were well-controlled without catastrophic consequences.
Through imaging and biochemical monitoring, a significant number of Luo Jin’s tumor cells began to die off, indicating that the new K virus therapy is indeed effective. Ten days later, Luo Jin woke up, and although he still hadn’t weaned off machine support, at least there was hope for him to do so.
“It’s in, I finally kicked it in.” Upon waking up, Luo Jin blinked and stared at Yang Ping.
Had he been playing soccer in his coma? Yang Ping shone a small flashlight into his eyes, finding pupils equal and responsive to light; he had indeed co back from the Ghost Gate.
Luo Jin only uttered this one sentence upon waking and then fell silent, simply moving his eyes around, looking at everyone, with a hint of fear clearly visible.
“What’s the score?” he blurted out another sentence.
“One to zero, we won,” Yang Ping replied, following his lead.
“Really?”
ntion of soccer made his eyes shine bright.
“Of course it’s true. We pulled you back, so that’s one point for us. They didn’t hold you back, so they missed a point. If it’s not one to zero, what do you think the score is?” Yang Ping feigned seriousness.
“Where am I? Why am I lying here? Who are you? Oh! Professor Yang, I recognize you.” Luo Jin finally got a grasp of the situation.
To go from a soccer field in Europe before collapsing to waking up on a hospital bed in China felt like a drear waking up, unable to instantly adapt to reality. It was normal to feel bewildered for a while.
“You’re now on a hospital bed at Sanbo Hospital. You collapsed on the field due to an intracranial tumor, and your parents brought you back. We’ve used the latest treatnt thods, and your condition has now eased; it’s been 10 days since your collapse.” Yang Ping inford him while observing his brain’s response to make a preliminary judgnt on certain functions.
“I rember so bits and pieces, but I didn’t realize it had been so long.” He finally managed to organize the mories in his brain and recognized his current situation.
“Thank you, Professor Yang. Did I undergo surgery?”
“No, you missed the opportunity for surgery, but we are researching a brand-new tumor treatnt thod, which is still in the experintal phase, and we happened to use it on you. Surprisingly, it worked quite well. Many tumor cells in your body have been destroyed, and the results are expanding. You shouldn’t have much trouble staying alive, and we have confidence in maintaining the one to zero lead.”
“Will I be able to play soccer again?”
“If the expected result is achieved, yes!”
This experint progressed much further than the last one. The team keeps summarizing and analyzing data, then improves the next step in the experint, making the new treatnt plan increasingly perfect.
Waiting outside the ICU, Luo Jin’s parents embraced each other full of joy upon hearing the good news.
“Professor Yang, if it weren’t for you, Luo Jin…” Luo Jin’s father grasped Yang Ping’s hand anxiously, reflecting on how his son repeatedly instructed them beforehand that if he ever collapsed, no matter what, they should always bring him back to China Sanbo Hospital, even if it ant taking a huge risk.
Those words gave Luo Jin’s parents the courage to bring him back against all odds. Without such instructions, they wouldn’t have dared to bring him back, opting instead to continue treatnt in Europe. It turned out that this choice was so right, life and death hung in that mont’s decision.
“In a few days, he should be able to return to a regular ward. I can’t guarantee a cure because this is a new treatnt thod, and there are not many cases yet. Luo Jin is the second case, but from the current situation, easing the illness is not a problem. Actually, the illness has already significantly eased, with many tumor cells killed. Specific test data is not yet available,” Yang Ping’s calm and rational words contrasted with soone unfamiliar with him, who might find this doctor cold.
“Thank you, thank you so much!” Luo Jin’s parents said while wiping their tears.

“They’ve successfully treated another case more severe than yours,” Rolf said excitedly.
“Donate for . Quickly get in touch with Professor Yang’s foundation. Donate, I want to donate.” Li Gaoyang could no longer wait; he decided to resign as chairman of BG Company and concentrate on his treatnt.
“I’ve been actively reaching out to Professor Yang’s research foundation for you, but even donations have a queue. There are too many people wanting to donate, and they need to strictly vet the donors’ qualifications,” Rolf explained diligently.
“You need to queue for donations? Donations require qualification checks?”
Li Gaoyang had never heard of such a strange thing, questioning the idea of needing qualifications to give away money, let alone needing to queue.
“There’s no choice, you’re not the only one eager to donate. Especially after they unveiled their stem cell technology, many people want to donate, hoping to qualify for experintal treatnt. I predict the sa will be true for their brand-new tumor treatnt thod once it’s announced. So, we must act quickly; donate before their paper is published, and secure a volunteer spot,” Rolf said helplessly.
“Increase the donation amount, regardless of the cost,” Li Gaoyang said through clenched teeth.
“It’s useless; if you raise it, others won’t? Plus, at a certain sum, the amount no longer matters as much,” Rolf explained.
“There’s still a major hurdle: for phase one and two clinical trials, volunteers are limited to Chinese only. Foreigners are recruited starting from phase three,” Rolf added.
“How long do we have to wait?”
“I don’t know either.”
