This fight against the epidemic has strengthened our confidence in traditional medicine

8, 2020 World Conference on the Promotion of Public Scientific Quality was held in Beijing. At a time when the new crown pneumonia epidemic is still in a global pandemic, human society needs scientific and technological solutions more than ever before. Zhang Boli, president of
Chinese Academy of Engineering and president of Tianjin University of Traditional Chinese Medicine and director of the Department of Medical and Health Sciences of the Chinese Academy of Engineering, took to the stage to talk about his familiar topic, "Chinese medicine against the epidemic".
recently, a photo of Mr. Chamberlain in the early days of the outbreak touched the public. In February this year, Zhang Boli led the Chinese medicine "national team" into Wuhan Fang class hospital. Because of overwork, he had gallbladder inflammation and underwent minimally invasive gallbladder removal surgery in Wuhan. A few days after the operation, because to open the outbreak seminar video conference, Zhang Boli afraid of colleagues worried, take out clothes to wear outside the sick clothes, cover the sick clothes to meet.
scene was secretly filmed.
, his team had found that Chinese and Western medicine, in combination with treating patients with neo-coronary pneumonia, could achieve better results.
" as of yesterday, there have been 63.28 million confirmed cases and more than 1.53 million deaths in the new crown pneumonia outbreak. And in just over three months, we have overcome the outbreak of neo-crown pneumonia. Chamberlain said. Earlier, the World Health Organization updated its new drug guidelines for coronary pneumonia, recommending against treating hospitalized patients with the antiviral drug Redsyvir. Once people expected the "god medicine", the experimental effect is not good.
Zhang Boli fought in Wuhan against the new crown pneumonia epidemic, they developed a combination of Chinese and Western medicine prevention and control program, which has become an important experience in China's fight against the epidemic.
, when the outbreak of neo-crown pneumonia began, there were no special drugs. "We went to Wuhan to encourage patients to have confidence, but our own confidence is not enough. Because we don't yet know how the disease evolved clinically. "But soon after, they developed a general clinical judgment of the disease.
" and SARS, the new coronavirus is more contagious and less toxic, but more complex in clinical performance. In addition to producing general symptoms of viral infection, it can also damage the body's immune function and damage other organs, including the lungs, Zhang said. This is because the new coronavirus's subject is ACE2, which is distributed in the heart, liver, kidney, nervous system and even reproductive system.
western medicine concerned about the virus, to crack the structure of the virus; Zhang said they used a relatively short period of time to identify the symptoms of neo-crown pneumonia, confirmed that in Chinese medicine, this is called wet plague.
Zhang Boli concluded that this anti-epidemic, Chinese medicine made four contributions: centralized isolation of the use of Traditional Chinese medicine, effectively blocking the spread and spread of the epidemic;
left Wuhan, Zhang Also returned to Wuhan many times, mainly to observe the rehabilitation of the new crown pneumonia patients.
"We found that most patients do not have sequelae and can recover quickly, even if they do." Zhang added, "But it does find that there is no direct link between the after-effects of many patients and the severity of the condition at the time." "In other words, people with mild illness may have sequelae, and patients with severe illness may not have sequelae.
also has an experience that psychological rehabilitation deserves attention. "A lot of patients have a lot of psychological damage."
zhang said that from the whole process of fighting the epidemic, the therapeutic effect of traditional Chinese medicine is accurate. "Controlling the disease from light to heavy is the core indicator. The cost of treating a mildly ill patient is less than 10,000 yuan; We can control not to turn heavy with Chinese medicine, this is the key. Chamberlain stressed.
, Zhang said, the virus does not know national boundaries, the epidemic does not know race, all mankind can only work together to win the war. "There's no vaccine, there's no special medicine, we have Chinese medicine to solve the problem. This time, it is the vivid practice of keeping the essence of innovation and inheritance, which enhances our confidence in traditional medicine. "
