Body Chapter 512 Fight for the rise of Chinese medicine!
Xiao Chen was sitting there, and when he heard the beautiful host calling him, Xiao Chen knew that the other party wanted to call him up, so he just had to read the two speeches written in advance.
However, Xiao Chen had already seen it just now. They were just flattering words. Reading them out would make him feel sick. Moreover, this was not Xiao Chen's idea.
When Xiao Chen stood up, everyone in the auditorium looked at him.
Some people admire it!
There is jealousy!
Some are envious!
There are also some who look very complicated!
Xiao Chen seemed very confident. He went directly to the rostrum in the auditorium with his hands empty. The beautiful host on the rostrum noticed that Xiao Chen had empty hands and seemed a little nervous.
After all, there are so many senior executives and leaders here, so many people in the traditional Chinese medicine field, and reporters here watching, if Xiao Chen messes up then, not only Xiao Chen will be embarrassed.
Xiao Chen stood on the podium and said directly: "I am very happy to have the opportunity to stand on the stage. I don't think that I participated in the National Medical Competition this time just because of my relationship with an elder. I didn't expect that I was lucky enough to win the championship. But, I
You know, this doesn’t mean anything. There may be many seniors in the field of traditional Chinese medicine who have much better medical skills than me. There are many."
After Xiao Chen finished speaking, he paused for a moment. The old Chinese doctors below naturally thought that what Xiao Chen said was right and seemed very humble.
Xiao Chen continued: "Since the unknown plague broke out in the southwest, I have been paying attention to the situation there recently, so I would like to take this opportunity to talk about traditional Chinese medicine and the plague."
This is naturally a very good entry point. Sure enough, what Xiao Chen just said, not only Liang Wenli, the deputy minister of health, but also Zhu Jianmin, the president of the National Association of Traditional Chinese Medicine and others, felt their eyes light up when they heard what Xiao Chen said.
.
Did this kid already know something in advance?
"From the Western Han Dynasty to the end of the Qing Dynasty, there was at least one major plague in China. Traditional Chinese medicine fought life and death duels with various plagues again and again, controlling the spread of the epidemic in a limited area and time. Never in the history of China.
There have been tragedies such as the Spanish Flu, the European Black Death, and the global plague, which killed tens of millions of people."
"It can be said that the ancient Chinese paid great attention to infectious diseases. The prevention of infectious diseases was recorded in the medical work "Huangdi Neijing" more than 2,000 years ago. Since the Han Dynasty, medical books have paid attention to infectious diseases as a key item; in the Jin Dynasty
Ge Hong's "Behind the Elbow" records "sores" (smallpox), "rabies bites" (rabies), etc.; subsequent medical books describe malaria, measles, diphtheria, chickenpox, cholera, dysentery, tuberculosis and other acute infectious diseases and their
Syndrome differentiation and treatment methods are clearly documented.”
“In addition to using drugs to treat infectious diseases, ancient Chinese medicine also summed up experiences such as isolation and quarantine, disinfection, maintaining a good environment and personal hygiene, and prevention before getting sick, to deal with the spread of epidemics. Historical records of the Western Han Dynasty include: “Those who suffer from common diseases will have empty houses.
"The residence is for medicine." This means that the government at that time established public temporary hospitals to control epidemics, indicating that China had adopted isolation measures against infectious diseases as early as AD."
"Precisely because traditional Chinese medicine effectively resisted the spread of a major plague, most Chinese people do not have a deep understanding of the horror of plague. Plague was once the most terrifying devil in human history. In history, the Spanish Flu and the Black Death in Europe
, global plague, almost every plague has caused the tragedy of tens of millions of deaths."
"Let me briefly talk about the seven major plagues in Europe, almost each of which killed tens of millions of people."
"Ancient Greece, which laid the foundation of European civilization, was actually destroyed by an unprecedented plague; in 40 BC, a great plague occurred in Athens, nearly half of the population died, and the entire Athens was almost destroyed."
"The fate of the Roman Empire was actually changed by the Great Plague. The smallpox and measles plagues in ancient Rome killed one-third of the total population. Roman soldiers who were fighting everywhere brought smallpox and measles to Rome. Infectious diseases killed two people.
The life of a Roman emperor. According to the Roman historian Dioca, thousands of people died of the disease in Rome at that time. The total death toll was estimated to be as high as 5 million, which greatly weakened the strength of the Roman Empire."
"The Black Death occurred in Europe in the 14th century AD, killing about 5 million people, and became a turning point in European history. It is said that after the plague, Europe was depressed for hundreds of years."
"The Black Death was one of the deadliest plagues in human history. In 148, hundreds of people died every day throughout Europe. Europeans lamented that the end of the world had really come. The Black Death did not spare anyone in Europe.
corner, and even extended its claws to Europe's immediate neighbors - the Middle East and North Africa. By 148, it divided its forces into three groups and swept across Spain, Greece, Italy, France, Syria, Egypt and Palestine."
"After the Black Death entered the UK, all the tenant farmers in some manors died. The situation in the city was even worse due to the dense population. By May, only 10,000 of London's original 50,000 residents were left, and it was not until the 16th century that the city recovered.
The original number; two-thirds of the students at the famous Oxford University died! When the epidemic was controlled in 151, the British Isles and Ireland had lost about 40% of their total population, which was much higher than
Their total losses in the Hundred Years' War between England and France."
…
"Then why did plagues break out in ancient China, but the mortality rate from plagues was not as high as in Europe?"
"Here, what I want to say is that the plague is not terrible. What is terrible is the lack of timely treatment and treatment. With regard to the situation of traditional Chinese medicine, from ancient times to the present, even in the Ming and Qing Dynasties, the rise of the febrile disease school also saved people.
Many domestic plague victims.”
"So, I have always believed that traditional Chinese medicine has declined. This is a fact that people in the traditional Chinese medicine community must admit. However, it does not mean that it is worse than Western medicine. It has always existed to protect the lives, health and safety of us Chinese people. So, I
I believe that as long as people in the TCM community unite and work together to strive for the rise of TCM, TCM will rise again sooner or later."
"Thank you, thank you everyone, I'm done!"
Xiao Chen also came down from the rostrum.
This is indeed not the speech prepared by the host for Xiao Chen in advance, but Xiao Chen's own draft, which he said while thinking about it.
What he wants to say is that since ancient times, Chinese medicine has been more powerful than Western medicine in the West. Especially in terms of plague, Western medicine is even more incomparable.
Based on the current domestic situation, there are many reasons for the decline of traditional Chinese medicine and the rise of Western medicine. However, Xiao Chen has always believed that as long as everyone in the traditional Chinese medicine community works together, traditional Chinese medicine will rise sooner or later, and it will become the most important medicine in China.
Chinese medicine.
This is what Xiao Chen wants to express.
The beautiful host was a little confused. When she came to her senses, she hurriedly said: "Thank you Dr. Xiao for your wonderful speech. Everyone applauds."
The applause from below started quickly and stopped after a few minutes.
I have to say that the leaders on the rostrum now feel that Xiao Chen, a young man, is really not simple. He has no speech script and just writes it directly, and he actually speaks so well. If it were them, he would definitely not be able to do it.
Furthermore, now that we are encountering the outbreak of the Southwest Plague, there is no doubt that this time it is necessary to prove again that the medical skills of traditional Chinese medicine are not inferior to those of Western medicine.
Moreover, when encountering this situation, whether it is Western medicine or traditional Chinese medicine, it is definitely necessary to do its part to prevent the plague from spreading again, and to save those patients who have been infected by the plague as soon as possible. (To be continued.
