What exactly is "Water of Death"? In fact, it is what we often call paraquat! One tragic incident after another in real life has shown that although the person concerned feels regretful, he can only complete the last journey of life in a sober way. This can't help but cause many netizens to sigh: "Paraquat is really worthy of being the "water of death", it is easy to drink, but it is difficult to regret. And it is worth mentioning that the reason for the dispute that accompanies it will really end because of the end of life? Not really! So the question is, why choose to drink it?
Just recently, there was finally an update on the case in June 2020 in which a Shandong woman had a dispute with her neighbors over road construction and drank paraquat in anger! It may be just one example of rural paraquat, but it is a microcosm of many similar events. From it, it may be able to inspire many people: drinking medicine does not actually solve the problem, and dying angry will only cheapen others!
It can be seen from the first-instance judgment that has been published on the Chinese judgment document network a few days ago that the court rejected the plaintiff's claim of 270,000 yuan. This verdict was surprising, so naturally it triggered a wave of heated discussion among netizens. So, why is that? Let's review the beginning and end of the whole thing with the Rubik's Cube!
In the judgment documents that have been announced, it is shown that on June 10, 2020, Han Mou insulted his family because his neighbor Xu Mou had nothing to do, even the 5th grade children did not let go, and the reason for taking it was 14 years ago. After the quarrel, the police rushed to the scene, and also mediated on this matter, and finally persuaded Han to leave. However, the next day, at 2 o'clock at noon on the 11th, Xu's son called the police again, indicating that someone had beaten his father. After the police arrived at the scene, they learned that because of the road construction problem in the village, Xu and Han had a quarrel again, and he insulted Han, but Han smashed him with a stone. However, at that time, Han was not at the scene, and Xu was lying on the ground alone.
After Han arrived at the scene, the police asked About Han's relevant situation, and Han returned home. Unexpectedly, just a few hours later, at about 5 p.m., Han suddenly came to Xu's home, sat in Xu's living room and vomited, and said that he had drunk paraquat pesticides. After that, the ambulance arrived at the scene to take Han away for treatment, but due to the ineffectiveness of rescue, he died at about 5 p.m. on the 13th. The cause of death given by the hospital was poisoning, and after the incident, Han's husband and son filed a lawsuit demanding that the "culprit" compensate more than 270,000 yuan. However, in response to this matter, the court and Han's husband and son's views have diverged.
Han's husband and his son believe that the Abuse of Han by Xu's family for 14 years has led to serious damage to Han's reputation on the one hand, and on the other hand, it is precisely because of the long-term abuse that Han is unable to withstand mental pressure and chooses to drink medicine to live lightly, and her death is inseparable from Xu. However, the court said that in this incident, Han was a person with full legal capacity, knowing that his actions would cause consequences for his own damage, and hoping or allowing such a result to occur was intentionally causing damage, so he should also be responsible for the consequences of his own actions.
Moreover, the defendant Xu could not foresee that the quarrel would lead to the occurrence of suicide, and there was no case of instigating or instigating Han to take pesticides, so there was no causal relationship between Xu's behavior and Han's death. In the end, the result of the first instance was that the compensation claims of Han's husband and his son were rejected.
Paraquat, also known as "ballali", "sweeping light". Chemically it is a non-flammable, non-explosive, colorless and odorless liquid, but in order to prevent accidental accidental consumption, the relevant warning colors, odorants and emetics were added to the production. As a result, paraquat previously circulating on the market was generally a green, blue, water-soluble liquid with a pungent odor. Paraquat was discovered 66 years ago by the UK's International Research Centre to have an effect on weeding, so it was officially launched in 1962 and has since been widely used in more than 130 countries as a very wide range of residue-free herbicides.
However, there is a strange phenomenon that in the 1990s, pesticides suddenly became the main tool for people to commit suicide, the most widely known as "enemy fear". However, through years of clinical trials, the antidote to dichlorvos was mastered, and there was a special antidote. But despite it, people who want to live lightly can still find a way, so paraquat has become the first choice of everyone. There are many real cases in real life, so take a look at the following relevant data:
In October 2021, a 13-year-old Henan girl drank paraquat in a quarrel with her classmates, although she only drank a small sip as the little girl said; although the little girl begged in front of her mother afterwards, "Mom, I drank paraquat", "Mom, save me, I don't want to die, I want to live"; with the assistance of the Henan high-speed traffic police, the one-and-a-half-hour journey to the hospital was shortened to 28 minutes, and she was successfully admitted to the hospital; under the efforts of the hospital for gastric lavage at the first time, the rescue of the hospital, etc., the little girl's condition eventually deteriorated sharply , the lungs are a lot of fibrosis, "there is only a little left", and the constant game with the god of death is still defeated, leaving us forever.
In October 2021, internet celebrity "Luo Kitten Owls" committed suicide by drinking pesticides during live broadcasts because of emotional disputes. In the coaxing of netizens, the female anchor really drank paraquat at the end. In the end, although he went to the hospital in time for rescue, the rescue was still ineffective. It is understood that Luo Kitten suffered from online violence for a long time before her death, and even at the time of her death, some people blamed her death for "bringing bad minors".
In July 2018, Meng Fansen, a school dropout boy at a farmers' market in Suzhou, felt aggrieved after being educated by his parents, drank paraquat on impulse, and was immediately taken to the hospital by his family for rescue. In November 2010, at the age of 9, he became popular overnight because of his skilled fish-killing skills and sharp eyes. However, at the age of 17, he accidentally chose to drink medicine to save his life, but after drinking paraquat, he regretted it. However, fortunately, after more than 20 days of rescue treatment and rehabilitation in Qilu Hospital, he was finally successfully discharged.
......
It is worth noting that in addition to the above representative cases in real life, there are tens of millions of poisoned people who take paraquat and have no cure. I have to say that killing fish brothers is lucky, doesn't it mean that paraquat has no cure? Why did he make the exception? The 13-year-old girl who drank paraquat pleaded bitterly in her waking; the woman who quarreled with her neighbor in Shandong angrily drank paraquat, and after 2 days of rescue, she still could not escape the consequences. Why didn't they get it? Before that, let's take a look at rubik's cube: how toxic paraquat really is!
According to relevant data, the adult lethal 20% aqueous solution of paraquat is about 5 to 15 ml. It is reported that even if the stomach is not drunk directly, as long as the skin is exposed to paraquat solution for a long time, it can be fatal. It has many faces, and many farmers express "love and hate" for it. On the one hand, it is the herbicide that humans love for ten minutes, on the other hand, it is also the herbicide with the highest death rate of human model poisoning, and it is also known as one of the most painful ways to die in the world.
By extracting the blood of survivors, this pattern can be found: that is, the maximum 3h blood concentration in the victim's body is 2.64 μg/mL, while those who exceed 3.44 μg/mL have no room for salvation. However, many people are confused: according to the principle, paraquat weeding principle is that it can be quickly absorbed by the green tissue of the plant, making it die. After contact with the soil, it will lose its herbicidal activity relatively quickly, without residue, and will not damage the roots of the plant. But for humans and more mammals, how does it become the "water of death" and "water of death"? From taking paraquat to suffocation to death, what kind of journey did they go through?
Paraquat death record: body organs festering but conscious
In general, human beings seek to drink paraquat by oral, and 99% of people do not think of diluting it, but directly take the bottle and mouth it. Therefore, in this way, the first damage is the oropharynx and esophagus of the poisoned person, and the strong corrosiveness makes these parts of the poisoned person corroded and ulcerated. As paraquat enters the body, the digestive, urinary and respiratory systems disintegrate step by step, especially in the lungs, with the 13-year-old paraquat girl being the best example.
We all know that the human body is a large circulatory system, because its step-by-step disintegration is obvious for the loss of organ function. But the most terrifying thing is that its damage to the central nervous system is not obvious, so the patient's consciousness is always awake. "The entire organ disintegration process can be clearly perceived by the victim, which means that when the lungs finally collapse, they will experience a feeling of suffocation in their waking, even worse than "burying alive", this is what Xie Yuntao, a 19-year-old teenager who died of taking paraquat, once talked about how he felt when he drank paraquat.
According to him: "It is like a poisonous snake in its body, it is slowly devouring its own body with unscrupulousness, and it is conscious but powerless." Therefore, if we have to ask how poisonous paraquat is, perhaps this mental torture is the other "most poisonous" in addition to its own toxicity. And in general, paraquat toxicity slowly erodes the body, and this process continues in the rescue, which will last for several days. Imagine that after several days of "burial alive", you can soberly perceive the changes in your body step by step, and your desire to survive is becoming more and more exuberant, such torture is not something that ordinary people can endure.
Beginning in 2012, China implemented restrictive management measures for paraquat, followed by the withdrawal of the production license and suspension of production of paraquat water agents in 2014, and the complete prohibition of the domestic sale and use of paraquat in 2016. In September 2020, as the last batch of sol paraquat was about to expire, the controversial "water of death" paraquat finally bid farewell to the Chinese market once and for all.
But until then, paraquat had been a highly toxic pesticide. There are disputes in the rural market, in front of some unreasonable people, it is also a kind of "intimidation artifact", many of which are crushed by the unsatisfactory life and the words of others, choosing to drink medicine to save their lives, and in the eight years from 2001 to 2008, the number of suicides with paraquat once approached 8,000.
Therefore, it is true that some netizens said that paraquat was banned because it was discontinued by humans and production, and there is still some truth. However, it cannot be ignored that in fact, tens of thousands of people drink paraquat in the relevant statistics every year, what is going on? In addition to suicide, many of the remaining ones are life-threatening due to mistaken ingestion or failure to take appropriate protective measures. In addition, there are other alternative drugs in weed control, and 26 weed organisms around the world have become resistant to paraquat, and its myth of sweeping light has been broken. As a result, paraquat is finally banned in anticipation.
We all know that paraquat is highly toxic, so why can "fish killer" be an exception? In fact, the reason is very simple, on the one hand, it is true that the amount of "killing fish brother" is very small. On the other hand, the Qilu Hospital where he was treated has accumulated a large number of patients in paraquat poisoning, receiving nearly 3,000 patients between 2012 and 2017. In the process of years of in-depth research on how to save people, he has accumulated a lot of experience and formed the famous "Qilu Program". For mild patients, it has a relatively high healing effect, of course, it is not completely overcome this pesticide, because there are still about 40% of patients who cannot survive after treatment.
There are positive and negative sides to everything, and paraquat was developed to weed rather than for other purposes. So, from this perspective, paraquat itself is indeed an excellent pesticide, but many people use it in the wrong place. Especially in rural areas, there are really too many incidents like Shandong medicine drinking women, although drinking is not necessarily really "bound to die", but the amount of drinking is really difficult to control, and the time to save the doctor, everyone's physical condition, etc. are uncontrollable factors.
And from the perspective of physical injury, paraquat's damage to organs is irreversible, and it is a miracle that it can be cured, and it is necessary to follow the doctor's advice every year after that. Life is supreme, only once can not be repeated, so what is important is not paraquat, but the way of life that each of us chooses. After all, even without paraquat in the future, as long as there is no change in thinking, there will still be other alternative drugs that will be targeted by humans. What do you think?
