The "quintessence of Chinese medicine" cannot be separated from the law

Not long ago, some media revealed that there are at least 150,000 folk traditional Chinese medicine practitioners in the country who have been "illegal" for a long time. Protecting and improving the living environment of folk traditional Chinese medicine is more important than mining and sorting out the resources of folk medicine. The legal practice of folk traditional Chinese medicine should be solved from the source.

Some time ago, Tu Youyou won the Nobel Prize and set off a "traditional Chinese medicine fever", and "traditional Chinese medicine" has become a hot topic among experts, scholars and even ordinary people all over the world. But if I don’t say I don’t know, I am shocked when I say that there are 150,000 folk traditional Chinese medicine practitioners who are “illegally practicing medicine” and have no license to practice medicine at all.

Media reports say the 150,000 folk medicine practitioners are in a useful, beneficial but "illegal" state. The reason is that the threshold set by the Physician Physician Law restricts the development of folk traditional Chinese medicine, which makes it difficult for folk traditional Chinese medicine to obtain "qualifications".

my country's Licensed Physician Law implements classified practice of physicians, but the division of the scope of practice of traditional Chinese medicine is seriously out of touch with the actual clinical situation. If you don't get in, you can only change your career to other positions. There are too many monks and few porridges, and it is difficult for even the Chinese medicine practitioners who have been taught by famous schools to obtain qualifications.

In the current situation where Western medicine is booming and traditional Chinese medicine is declining, traditional Chinese medicine has also been squeezed into the cracks of the law. Without the rules, it is naturally difficult to form a circle, which makes the world of traditional Chinese medicine a lot of strange things: Before Tu Youyou won the Nobel Prize, few people knew who her surname was. ; Some unverified "folk prescriptions" are popular, but traditional Chinese medicine resources are on their own.

Zhang Wuben's sentence "Eating long eggplant can cure various intractable diseases" once made it difficult to find a long eggplant on the market; Ma Yueling said that "raw loach" can cure all diseases, and more than 100 people followed this statement. Hospitalized with poisoning. These people deceived under the guise of the theory of traditional Chinese medicine, which also caused the public to misunderstand traditional Chinese medicine.

To solve the chaos of traditional Chinese medicine, time is not waiting for me. The author believes that the most urgent task is to solve the "three chaos" of traditional Chinese medicine through legislation.

The first is to solve the disorder of practicing qualifications and formulate a law on practicing doctors of traditional Chinese medicine, so that "useful and beneficial" folk traditional Chinese medicine practitioners have a license, and they can openly hang pots to help the world to treat diseases and save people, and make those gods who can only fool them useless. .

The second is to excavate and organize folk prescriptions and promote them, so as to avoid deviations in the "word of mouth" model of traditional Chinese medicine. Not all "folk prescriptions" are the essence, and some are simply nonsense that does not conform to medical principles. For example, a few years ago, the media reported that Zhang Keqin, an old man in Dengzhou, Henan, saw a "small prescription" for gallstones in a magazine. After taking the medicine purchased according to the prescription, he died of poisoning.

The third is to return traditional Chinese medicine to its original state through legislation, so that there are legal regulations for the diagnosis and treatment of traditional Chinese medicine. Under the folk traditional Chinese medicine concept of "remedies to treat serious diseases", some folk remedies and proven prescriptions are spread by themselves, creating a situation of "all people are doctors". Traditional Chinese medicine is added to a variety of foods under the theory of "medicine and food are of the same origin", and is boasted by merchants as a panacea that can "eat back" diseases.

Chinese medicine is China's great contribution to the world. How to make the "national quintessence" of traditional Chinese medicine flourish in the world and make more "Tu Youyou" appear in the field of traditional Chinese medicine, a special law is indeed urgently needed to set things right, remove the false and preserve the truth, clear the source of the original, and "take the pulse" of traditional Chinese medicine Square".
