世卫的头头一直跟中国政府很配合,言辞也很含蓄,见不到批评的,西方政府媒体一直不信,觉得世卫是帮凶。中国政府隐瞒事实,置民生于党尊之下(参见:不是武汉政府犯了罪,就是习近平犯了罪),确实是这么一回事,连“坚决打赢抗击疫情阻击战 推动构建人类命运共同体”(《 求是》)都要增强“四个意识”、坚定“四个自信”、做到“两个维护”, 世卫到底能做什么?
这个确实是个不可抹去的阴影
I think the explanation may be in differing understandings of what is "traditional" medicine. In China, almost uniquely, it's a state-regulated system that is integrated in mainstream biomedicine. Arguably it can be used safely in these settings.
But of course on Twitter it becomes a totally predictable story about the CCP lying, international organizations like the WHO being spineless and so on. It's a perfect, meaningless, echo-chamber Twitter-storm where no one tries to find out why, but has their biases confirmed.
The main point of these five-minute online exposes is to confirm biases, appear smart and knowing, have a quick high of moral indignation, and move on to the next Ah Q spiritual victory. Actually reporting out a story is too complicated and might lead to...ambiguity.
张彦的说法是“中药”和“草药”是两码事,不必简单等同,原因是中药在中国是个系统,是个制度,有忽悠的,各种利益势力都在占位,但有个规矩。但中国之外草药就是狗皮膏药,绝对是胡来的,不仅绝对的没用,还有风险。
中药不能治冠病肺炎,那是肯定的,但问题是什么能治。答案是什么都不能治,现在还没有药。所谓治疗,是增强体质,提高自身免疫力,最后凭自己将病毒排出去。从这个角度上来说,中医触发人体机能,也不能说胡来。
现在世界上什么都是意识形态之争,不是你死就是我死,也不是出路。
