Doctor John (2019–…): Season 1, Episode 12 - A World without Pain: part 2 - full transcript

Lee Ki Suk does not want his phantom pains cured, as he will loose all touch senses again, but Yo Han shows manages to convince him. Shi-young learns that patient's stories can be of tremendous help in finding a diagnosis.

ALL CHARACTERS, ORGANIZATIONS, PLACES, AND
ASSOCIATIONS IN THIS DRAMA ARE FICTITIOUS

Step away right now…

from my trainee.

Are you happy now?

Or should I step farther away?

All right. I'll see you there.

I have to go now.

See you around,

Dr. Kang.

Only a half success
and only a half failure.

Have you ever said that to me?



It's a success because
I got you a prison sentence.

But it's a failure

because you got only three years
instead of the ten years that I asked for.

So? I've already served my sentence.
What can I do now?

Time doesn't erase your criminal record.

Only society's forgiveness can.

I never asked for society's forgiveness
for what I did.

-I only asked for society's agreement.
-Which you failed to get.

Because you were convicted.

What do you want from me?

Disqualification? Dismissal?

No way. I have no right
to make that happen to you.

Then what?

Do you want to wait
until I perform euthanasia again



so that you can catch me
and take my doctor's gown off?

-No.
-Then what is it that you want?

There's only one thing I want.

That you don't do anything.

COURT

Please don't do anything.

Why?

I'm scared of you.

-You're scared of me?
-Yes.

A public prosecutor
fears an ex-convict doctor like me?

-Why would that be?
-Well, I have no clue.

Murder not based on a sudden impulse
but a firm belief.

And a person who puts his belief
above the law.

That kind of person contaminates
the people around him.

Especially, people who are
still in training

and haven't fully developed
their own opinions yet.

In their eyes,

you sacrifice and dedicate yourself
until you bleed to death.

You're a martyr

to them.

So please don't do anything.

Anything at all.

See you again, Dr. Cha.

I don't care.

Your opinions
and judgments about me don't matter to me.

What matters to me…

What matters to me
is not what kind of doctor I am to you.

It's what kind of doctor I am
to my patients.

Am I a doctor who kills or saves?

I'll leave that judgment
to my patients, not you.

Let me give you a piece of advice.

A doctor

can't be a deity.

He can only be the deity of death.

Hello?

How did it go?
What did Prosecutor Son say?

Does he want to fight?
Are we fighting again?

That's not it. Let's talk tomorrow.

Okay. By the way,
I have another piece of news.

What is it?

I know a producer at the broadcasting
station that interviewed Joo Hyung-woo.

He called me and said
he wants to interview you.

Would you be okay with going on TV?

Are you doing this as a prosecutor?

-Or as--
-It's as a prosecutor

-that I'm doing this.
-I don't think so.

INCOMING CALL FROM CHAE EUN-JEONG

-Hello?
-Prosecutor Son, it's me.

-Did you meet him?
-Yes, I just did.

How was he?

Is he still the same?

I'll tell you in person.

Okay. I have something to tell you anyway.

Han Myung-oh.

A lawyer on Seoul Hanse
Medical Center's legal team.

As you may know, he volunteered to defend
Cha Yo-han in the Yoon Seong-kyu case.

Min Tae-kyung.

Chief of Anesthesiology
at Seoul Hanse Medical Center.

She insisted on hiring Cha Yo-han
despite the hospital's opposition.

But the thing is,
no matter how hard I look,

she doesn't seem to have
any personal relation to Cha Yo-han.

Then why did she insist
on hiring him so strongly?

We might find the reason here.

Kang Yi-soo. Chairman
of Seoul Hanse Medical Center.

Min Tae-kyung's husband.

He fell into a coma after an accident.

He is receiving life-prolonging treatment
on a ventilator.

CHAIRMAN KANG YI-SOO

What

would he be feeling right now?

What are you two doing here?

We were talking about how your dad
would be feeling right now.

Are you thinking the same thing
as Si-young?

I don't like it.

When you don't like something,
don't you even try to understand it?

A doctor's decision has nothing to do
with whether you like it or not.

In that sense,

I think Si-young is at least trying.

Hello?

Hey, Dr. Cha. It's me, Si-young.

-Where are you?
-Pardon?

Where are you right now?

So their daughter is Kang Si-young,
a resident in Anesthesiology?

Yes, that's right.

And right now, she's Cha Yo-han's trainee?

Yes.

-It's just like the Postma case.
-"Postma"?

ANDRIES POSTMA: A DUTCH DOCTOR
WHO EUTHANIZED HIS MOTHER

Andries Postma? The Dutch doctor?

She's a doctor, but she's also
the patient's daughter.

If she decides to end her father's
life-prolonging treatment

and leaves him to die,

that could become the Korean version
of the Postma case.

You mean if someone makes it seem that way

and uses the media
to form a public sentiment?

Could this be a coincidence?

If it's not, there needs to be
a definite connection.

They're not from the same school,

and they're not
acquainted with each other in any way.

But there must be some kind of connection.

Why did that prosecutor want to meet you?

To scare me.

He wanted to make sure
I'll never do the same thing again.

What if…

And I hope it'll never happen.

But what if you're faced with
the same kind of patient--

Would I make the same choice?

Yes.

Do you know what people asked me
the most after that incident?

They asked me

if I killed that patient not because
I thought it was the best for him

but because I wanted to feel at ease
and free myself from that patient.

Do you even care what's best for him?

Are you sure it's not because
you want to feel at ease?

There were many reasons
why I decided to let him go.

But I could definitely tell people
that I didn't do it for myself.

If I'm put in the same situation,
and I decide to make a different choice,

then that won't be seen as my belief.

It'll just be an impulsive murder.

I'm sorry.

I guess that was a stupid question.

Can I also make a stupid hypothesis?

If by any chance,

you have to consider ending
your father's life-prolonging treatment,

and if you actually decide to end it,
you'll start hearing the same thing.

They'll say you did it
just to feel at ease.

And they'll add one more thing to that.

They'll criticize you
for giving up on your own father.

You need to find an answer.

You need to find your answer
to those questions

so that no one will ever be able
to criticize you again.

I'll find it.
I'll try hard to find my own answer.

And I know this may sound out of line,

but you should also show people
who you are.

I want more people to find out
what kind of doctor you really are.

Go on.

Drive safely.

SEOUL HANSE MEDICAL CENTER

-We can do it!
-We can do it!

Hello.

Take a picture of that one.

It's not like that.

Come on!

We're going to begin the shoot.

The reason people come
to the Pain Management Center

is that they want
to get rid of their pain, right?

There's a famous quote
from Nabokov's novel Pnin.

"The history of man
is the history of pain."

People are born with pain,
and they eventually die in pain.

And they fight with pain
throughout their entire lives.

My gosh, he looks amazing on camera,
and he talks so eloquently.

It's like he was born to be on TV.
What are you writing?

Gi-seok's mother was excited.

She thinks it's a great opportunity
to tell the world about his illness.

Concentrate.

Then let me ask you a question.

What's your definition of pain?

I think pain is how our body
tries to communicate with us.

-It's a way of communication?
-Yes.

When something in our body
is in danger or is malfunctioning,

it tries to tell us
that there's something wrong in that area.

But what will happen
if our body doesn't tell us that?

The patient you'll be meeting today

has a disorder where his body
doesn't tell him what's wrong.

In other words,

he cannot feel pain.

He's a patient who's suffering from CIPA.

This is the ANI which shows us

his level of pain through the changes
in his heart rate.

When a normal person feels pain,
his or her heart rate changes

and the ANI figure
suddenly goes down like this.

But this patient shows a steady graph

which means he cannot feel
the temperature change.

Does that mean
the numbers in the graph normally

go down when a person
responds to a stimulus?

-Yes.
-Dr. Cha.

-Look.
-What?

There seems to be a change in the graph.

We've been stimulating
the patient since yesterday

with cold and hot temperatures
and gave him cognitive education.

His brain can't receive any signals
even when his body gets stimulated.

So we constantly told him that what
we're doing is supposed to be painful.

Yes, his nervous system
is reacting instinctively

because we keep telling him that.

His body isn't feeling pain
or receiving a stimulus.

Oh, I see.

My hand feels weird.

It feels numb. And it feels so stiff.

Is this what it feels like when
people say their hands are freezing?

-What's wrong?
-What did you say, Gi-seok?

Tell me if this stings.

To be honest, I spilled
hot water on myself recently.

And it felt really weird.

Did you say he recently got injured?

Yes.

Did you notice anything peculiar
after the injury?

Has he felt any kind of pain
after the surgery?

Why do you ask all of a sudden?

Is there a problem?

I can only tell you that something
impossible just happened.

What's going on?

Please sit down for now.

Don't get too startled.

It seems like Gi-seok can feel.

What?

If he feels pain,
that means his CIPA got better.

But unfortunately,
this illness is incurable.

I'm sorry.

Dr. Cha.

Should we run another test?

Do that.

Also, do an MRI scan
of his spine and brain.

Why do we need that?

Just do it.

I still need to explain it
to his guardian.

She is very anxious right now.

I'm suspecting a nerve block
caused by trauma.

Okay. I'll do the tests.

How perverted. Pain makes him happy.

So this is how stinging and burning feels.

Right? You said you had
a burning pain all night.

Are you happy? Seriously?

Yes. I finally feel alive.

Are you teasing me? You little…

Sir, relax. Relax.

CHA YO-HAN

Gi-seok can indeed sense temperature now.

The test results look
completely different from yesterday.

Dr. Cha, I just got a call from the ward.
Gi-seok…

It hurts!

Gi-seok.

Please! I feel like I'm being sawed.

Where does it hurt? Here?

Gosh. Yes.

His bones are fine.

So are his nerves

and muscles.

Still, pain is spreading
through his whole body.

-Analgesics?
-Neither NSAIDs nor morphine work.

Medicine doesn't work,
and all the scans are normal.

Still, he feels pain
even though he is a CIPA patient.

I feel ashamed to say this as a scientist,
but is he possessed or something?

A ghost

pain?

-One silly doctor is enough.
-No. A ghost pain for real.

Phantom pain.

Phantom pain?

Like when you feel pain in your limbs
even after they're cut off?

That's when you imagine a pain
that doesn't exist.

-This case is different.
-No. This might be a kind of illusion too.

-A hallucination.
-A hallucination?

But many things can cause a hallucination.
There are more than 500 causes.

But we can narrow them down.
He's a CIPA patient, remember?

Even if he had a brain tumor,
he would have had no headaches.

Even if he suffered a brain hemorrhage,
he would have felt no symptoms.

-It must be a brain problem.
-He is also prone to infections.

Infections and poisoning could be
the cause too.

-Start the tests.
-Okay.

How are you feeling?

I must have switched with that boy,
Gi-seok, or something.

I feel less pain now.

But I also feel weak
in my shoulders and hands.

You feel weak?

-Yes.
-Let me try moving your shoulders.

Are you okay?

What? What's wrong?

A herniated disc?

Yes.

The test results show
a herniated disc on the left side

between cervical vertebrae 5 and 6.

After the surgery,

will I feel no pain anymore?

The herniated disc is

the only cause we can find
through tests for your symptoms.

-And we're going to remove that now.
-I see.

You've been fasting for the tests, right?

Dr. Park Sang-hyun in Neurosurgery
is known to be the best

when it comes to disc surgery.

He is fully booked
for the next few months,

-but we were able to squeeze you in today.
-Then I guess I'll have to do it.

What's this?

Did you talk to Neurosurgery
about Mr. Choi Seung-won?

Yes. They're getting ready for surgery.

Can I see it?

Yes. It's Mr. Choi's pain diary.

But I'm not sure if the symptoms
Mr. Choi describes

can be explained by a herniated disc.

He is a 47-year-old carpenter
with 20 years of experience.

He's doing physical labor all his life.
He must be used to all kinds of pain.

And he said he's never experienced
pain like this.

It can't be explained
by just a herniated disc.

A herniated disc can be
very painful too, but…

-He has a daughter.
-Pardon?

She was sick about a year ago.

What was the problem?

"Seul-ah missed school because she's sick.

We were going to make a desk,
but she was too sick to do that."

She was sick? How?

Find out what the problem was.

If she missed school, it might have
been something contagious.

Okay.

I like your drawing.

About a year ago?

Mr. Choi wrote in his diary

that his daughter missed school
because she was sick.

-She had chickenpox.
-Chickenpox?

I told you I feel excruciating pain
even when the wind blows.

-No way.
-What's wrong?

I'm sorry. Excuse me for a second.

Dr. Cha, he felt like his skin
was being cut, burned, and pierced.

The pain got worse when touched.

Could it have been
because the chickenpox virus

remaining in his nerve cells
were reactivated?

-Shingles?
-Yes.

His daughter had chickenpox
about a year ago.

That's also when he started
feeling a pain in his left chest.

Shingles are not contagious,

but if his daughter hadn't had
chickenpox before,

she could have gotten the virus
from her dad.

But the problem is,
he had no skin rash at all.

Apart from that, all his symptoms fit.

Zoster sine herpete.

-Shingles without skin rashes?
-Choi Seung-won.

CHOI SEUNG-WON

Because the condition has
no typical symptoms,

an early diagnosis is rare,
and neuralgia continues.

Is he in surgery right now?

Breathe deeply.

I'll administer 120mg of propofol.

It'll make you feel drowsy.
You can just fall asleep.

Wait! Don't put him under.

-What are you doing?
-I'm sorry, Doctor.

We have to do a test on him first.

Dr. Cha. Gi-seok's results are out.

-There are no abnormalities.
-We asked Radiology to run thorough tests.

The results are the same.
Tumorlets or minor brain hemorrhage…

are nonexistent.

What about the spinal tap
and urine results?

EXTRACTING CEREBROSPINAL FLUID

It should be out soon.

-He's been weird since yesterday.
-Right? Right?

He asks for the CIPA patient's
test results over and over.

Again, again, and again.

Dr. Cha.

-Are you waiting for the results?
-Yes.

What about you?

Me too.

Choi Seung-won's results are out.
See for yourself.

Okay.

Take a look.

CHOI SEUNG-WON

VZV PCR.

Being processed.

Immunoglobulin G.
Negative. Immunoglobulin M.

IMMUNOGLOBULIN M: ANTIBODY PROTEINS

-Positive. Right?
-You were right.

I'm not mistaken, am I?

Inform them and start treatment.

Okay.

Lee Gi-seok.

Lee Gi-seok. Let's see.

There's nothing.

There's nothing.

There's…

nothing?

Dr. Cha.

He showed symptoms when there's nothing.

Choi Seung-won had symptoms
when he had no rash.

Lee Gi-seok feels pain
when he shouldn't be able to.

Yes, he feels pain.

Tumors, brain hemorrhage, infection,
or poisoning. There is no cause.

What if not having a cause is the cause?

-Keep going.
-I read about it once.

A blind person could see
and a deaf person could hear music.

Charles Bonnet syndrome.
Auditory hallucination.

Yes. That.

What's important isn't the fact that

the blind could see
and the deaf could hear.

They saw because they couldn't
and heard because they couldn't.

Our brain craves sensory stimulus.

If that gets cut off,
it creates its own signals.

Right.

Charles Bonnet syndrome
involves the visual cortex.

Auditory hallucinations
involve auditory cortex.

They weren't stimulated
for such a long time

that they created their own
visions and sounds.

What if we apply this
to Lee Gi-seok's case?

His brain has never
received any pain signals.

The insular lobe that
monitors senses waited for signals,

then suddenly, one day,
started to create its own stimuli.

If the neurons were to go into
hypersensitive overdrive…

-Central sensitization.
-Central sensitization.

Good job.

Let's go tell them.

Okay.

-Why do you refuse treatment?
-Do you call that treatment?

I won't be able to feel anything again.
You call that treatment?

Pain, hot, cold…

Your hands.

I won't be able to feel
the warmth of your hands anymore.

A doctor once said this.

I have a ticking bomb inside me.

And patients like me rarely
live longer than 20 years.

That means I have
about three years left, right?

-Gi-seok.
-During that time,

I want to live as a normal person.

I want to be cold in the winter
and hot in the summer.

I want to sweat when I play soccer.
I want to feel the warmth of your hands.

They're fake.

Pardon?

You won't be able to play soccer
because your legs hurt.

You'll be cold in the summer
and hot in the winter.

You'll keep receiving false signals.

And that'd be harder than receiving
no signal at all. Definitely.

How do you know?

You don't even know what it's like
to receive no signals.

That's why you can say that so easily.

You have no idea
what it's like to feel nothing.

That's why you can tell me
to go back to that life so easily!

What are you doing?

-What are you doing?
-I have something to show you.

This is my office.

Give me just a second.

TREATMENT RECORD

Ta-da.

What's all this?

A ticking bomb.

This person has been making sure

the ticking bomb inside him
hasn't gone off every single day.

Does this person

have the same condition as me?

What do you think he's doing?

I think he's showing him a patient
who has the same condition.

Don't worry.

I'll…

have the surgery.

On one condition.

Well?

It's cold and refreshing.

My teeth ache.

So does my head.

But it's tasty.

Eat a lot.

What else do you want to eat?

I wonder

how ice cream tasted to Gi-seok until now.

Neither cold nor hot.

Not only ice cream but his whole life
would be that way.

He doesn't have to freeze,
but he feels no warmth either.

That's what living without senses is like.

How did you persuade him?

That's a trade secret.

Thank you, Dr. Cha.

"Focus on the symptoms,
not what the patient says."

"If you're swamped
by the patients' emotions,

you won't see the symptoms."

I was told that all the time.

I was always confused as to whether
I should focus only on the symptoms.

You helped me find the answer

through the patient's story.

The patient's story doesn't always
give us the answer.

They only open up the path
that leads to the answer.

Okay. I'll remember that.

Thanks a lot for the hint.

-Go home.
-Okay.

And tomorrow,

scrub in for Lee Gi-seok's surgery.

Is it good?

Eat all you want.

See you tomorrow.

The key was right here.

Thank you, Dr. Kang.

No one had bothered to read this.

If you come across
another patient like me,

use that as reference.

The patient's story opens up
the path to the answer.

MONDAY, JULY 9, 2018. PAIN LEVEL 9

Good job.

Tomorrow, scrub in
for Lee Gi-seok's surgery.

SEOUL HANSE MEDICAL CENTER

Dr. Cha's going to
anesthetize him himself?

Yes.

Awake surgeries are really tricky.

He's too good.

Oh, is it true that Kang Si-young
barged into the OR yesterday?

You were putting him under
when she said she needed to run a test.

That patient was diagnosed with shingles.

-Really?
-Yes.

I guess she's becoming like Dr. Cha.

He told her to scrub in to assist, right?

How do you feel?

Here's the anesthetic.

We'll begin.

We're approaching the part that's
sending the wrong pain signals.

-Isn't that enough?
-It is.

We'll stimulate it. Tell us how it feels.

Okay.

0,5 ampere, 130 hertz.

Well?

-I felt the pricks.
-We'll maintain it for 30 seconds.

I still feel it.

-140 hertz
-Wait.

Do you not feel it?

It's not that.

For some reason,

this feels like the last time.

Right.

It could be the last time.

Tell me when you're ready.

Do it.

140 hertz.

I don't

feel anything.

Well done.

Now the fake pain
won't bother you anymore.

Promise me something, Dr. Cha.

My illness.

Promise…

you'll heal me one day.

I'll try.

Dr. Cha will get a great paper
out of this.

He'll go on TV and get more patients.

Chief Min,
you're a great judge of character.

You once complained as if
we couldn't find anyone else.

Chief Min. How about some tea?

Minister Lee recommended
Dr. Cha for a reason.

The hospital benefits
from such noteworthy cases.

But considering Chairman Kang's condition,

I'm concerned that
he won't be of much help.

What do you mean?

You're aware that mercy killing
or euthanasia is a very touchy subject.

If you take him off the ventilator,
there will be a dispute.

With Dr. Cha around,
won't people think our hospital

condones euthanasia?

I'm not that concerned.

The public notion of euthanasia
or mercy killings are changing.

If Dr. Cha does what he does,
I think he can help us when we need him.

-What do you mean, we'll need him?
-Well,

I'm not yet sure what that may be.

The boilermakers are ready.

The pork trotters are here!

The noodles and dumplings
are on the house!

-I'll take it. I'll take that.
-Enjoy.

-Should you be giving us so much?
-Don't you worry and eat all you want.

It'll come out of my son's paycheck.

-Okay!
-Tell me if you need anything else.

-Okay. Thank you.
-Thank you.

-Dr. Cha.
-Not for me.

-You don't drink?
-No.

Do you go to church?
Is it a baptismal name? Yo-han?

-No.
-Right. I've wanted to ask.

If it's not your baptismal name,
what does it mean?

It means "to cure" and "enjoy".

What? "Enjoy curing illnesses"?

Who gave you that name?

-A good fortune-teller?
-My father.

He must've wanted you to
become a doctor badly.

You were destined at birth.

How about you enjoy the present?

-It won't kill you.
-No, thanks.

Come on, Dr. Cha.

-I'll drink it instead.
-You're his savior?

Let's have a drink ourselves.

-AP, AP, cheers!
-AP, AP, cheers!

-Here.
-My gosh.

-Kang Mi-rae.
-Hello.

-You made it.
-Hello.

-Sit down.
-Mi-rae.

Do you want a drink?

-Yes? Yes?
-Yes.

-What was that?
-I'm your savior.

You're going too fast.
From here on, we'll take turns.

Good for you.

Why did you specialize in Pain Management?

With your skills, if you went to
Neurology or Surgery,

patients wouldn't have to come to us.

I agree.

A patient has chronic pain
with unknown causes.

People tell the patient that some
doctor at some hospital is famous,

that he should see that doctor.

What will the patient do?

See the doctor.

No.

The closer his appointment gets,
the more he pushes it back.

Why? Because he doesn't trust the doctor?

-In case he can't be cured?
-Something like that.

-Out of fear?
-Bingo. That's correct.

Because that doctor might not be able
to identify the illness either?

That's right. To keep his hope alive.

To go on thinking that
a doctor out there can cure him.

Is that the reason and goal
why you're in Pain Management?

To be the last doctor to write
that patient's prescription?

It's more of a dream than a goal.

Okay. A toast to our dreams!

-Cheers!
-Cheers!

Is euthanasia

a final prescription of sorts?

I want to ask you something.

Yoon Seong-kyu.

He was barely conscious.

How were you so sure that he wanted to die

and had no regrets
in the moment of his death?

How were you so sure?

Mr. Yoon.

No.

Mr. Yoon.

Yoon Seong-kyu.

He should hang in there
only if he can get better.

But…

however much he puts up with,
he won't get better.

Dr. Kang.

-Why did you become a doctor?
-To save people.

To become a doctor who never gives up
until the end and saves people.

To save people?

I failed to save Yoon Seong-kyu.

But failing doesn't mean
I'm done being a doctor.

When the patient is unconscious,

when not even a machine can tell
how big and where the pain is,

that is when I believe
a doctor should do his job.

One of those things is to
take the patient off the ventilator.

Do you think that's right?

Dr. Kang.

I don't think euthanasia
is always the right option.

-But there are times when it's needed.
-Doctors as good as you

would be able to tell when that time is.

We can't.

So don't brainwash young doctors.

Making a critical mistake
due to a serious lapse of judgment?

One time is more than enough.

Please, doctor.

I have to go.

I apologize.

Mi-rae.

I'm afraid of you.

You always act unpredictably.

And you finally messed up.

I can't tell what you'll do next.

-Mi-rae. If it's about Dad--
-I can't stand

that someone like Dr. Cha is around you.

DUMPLINGS AND PORK TROTTERS

Are you okay?

-Where's Dr. Cha?
-He just left. He said he has to work.

Thank you for the meal. See you tomorrow.

-But…
-Goodbye.

PROFESSOR'S OFFICE

Dr. Cha.

Dr. Cha.

AS SOON AS YOU FIND THIS PATIENT,
CALL AN AMBULANCE

DOCTOR IN CHARGE: CHA YO-HAN

That's my number.

Always carry that
with your student ID card.

Thank you.

I'll keep my promise.

The promise I made

with you yesterday.

I'll study and understand my body

so that I can protect

myself.

"Cha Yo-han"?

Like you.

Give me your hand.

That's right. Like me.

He can break his bones, rupture his organs
but he still won't feel any pain.

It's congenital insensitivity
to pain with anhidrosis.

He's a CIPA patient.

I have a ticking bomb inside me.

And patients like me rarely
live longer than 20 years.

You have no idea
what it's like to feel nothing.

That's why you can tell me
to go back to that life so easily!

He doesn't have to freeze,
but he feels no warmth either.

That's what living without senses is like.

Neither cold nor hot.

Not only ice cream
but his whole life would be that way.

SPECIAL THANKS TO JEON NO-MIN,
JUNG KYUNG-SOON

-What's your intention in visiting me?
-Your two daughters

are training under Dr. Cha.

Please do not show up at my workplace.

Everyone says it's over.

But what is over, really?

Nothing is, in my opinion.

The country's first confirmed
Nipah virus infection?

-When did the coughing start?
-It was 39,5 degrees.

-She's burning up.
-We were on the same shuttle bus.

-Are you okay?
-Until the tests come back negative

and the quarantine is lifted,
no one can enter or leave

-the Pain Management Center.
-Give me a protection suit. I'll go in.
