Under such swift and decisive measures against the plague, the smallpox epidemic in Jingzhou was quickly brought under control, and many patients gradually recovered.

Until all the patients at the Imperial Medical Hall were fully recovered, the epidemic disaster in Jingzhou was declared perfectly resolved.

Although many patients lost their lives due to prolonged infection, it was still a blessing amidst misfortune.
