Chapter 512 (1/2)
Xiao Chen sat there and heard the beauty host calling him. Xiao Chen knew that the other party wanted to call him up. Just read the two speeches written in advance.
However, Xiao Chen has just seen that it is just some flattering words. If you really read them, it will make him feel sick. Moreover, this is not Xiao Chen's idea.
When Xiao Chen stood up, everyone in the auditorium looked at him.
I admire you!
Jealous!
Have envy!
There are also those who look very complicated!
Xiao Chen seemed very confident and empty handed. He went directly to the rostrum in the auditorium. The beautiful woman on the rostrum presided over it. He found Xiao Chen empty handed and seemed a little nervous.
After all, there are so many senior executives, so many people in the field of traditional Chinese medicine, and those journalists here. If Xiao Chen messes up at that time, not only Xiao Chen will lose face.
Standing on the podium, Xiao Chen said directly, ”I'm glad to have the opportunity to stand on the stage. I don't think I'm participating in the national medical competition just because I'm an elder. Unexpectedly, I was lucky to win the championship. However, I know that this does not mean anything. In this competition, the elders in the field of traditional Chinese medicine may have much better medical skills than me. ”
After Xiao Chen finished, he paused first. The old Chinese doctors below naturally felt that Xiao Chen was right and modest.
Xiao Chen continued: ”since the outbreak of unknown plague in Southwest China, I have been paying attention to the situation there recently, so I want to take this opportunity to talk about traditional Chinese medicine and plague.”
Naturally, this is a very good starting point. Sure enough, Xiao Chen just said it. Not only Liang Wenli, Vice Minister of the Ministry of health, but also Zhu Jianmin, President of the National Association of traditional Chinese medicine. Hearing what Xiao Chen said, he also had a bright feeling in front of him.
Did the boy know something in advance?
”From the Western Han Dynasty to the late Qing Dynasty, there were at least 321 major plagues in China. Traditional Chinese medicine and various plagues launched a life and death duel again and again, and controlled the spread of the epidemic in a limited area and time. In the history of China, there has never been a tragedy such as the Spanish influenza, the black death of Europe and the plague of the world plague, which resulted in the death of tens of millions of people.
”It can be said that the ancients of China attached great importance to infectious diseases. The prevention of infectious diseases was recorded in the medical book Huangdi Neijing more than 2000 years ago; Since the Han Dynasty, medical books have focused on infectious diseases as key projects; Ge Hong's ”behind the elbow” of the Jin dynasty recorded ”prisoner sore” (smallpox), ”rabies bite” (rabies), etc; Subsequent medical books clearly recorded acute infectious diseases such as malaria, measles, diphtheria, chickenpox, cholera, dysentery and tuberculosis and their syndrome differentiation and treatment. ”
”In addition to treating infectious diseases with drugs, ancient Chinese medicine also summed up the experience of isolation and quarantine, disinfection, maintaining good environment and personal hygiene, and preventing diseases before diseases, so as to deal with the spread of epidemic diseases. According to the historical data of the Western Han Dynasty, ”people suffering from diseases have an empty house, which is to buy medicine.” This means that the government established a public temporary hospital to control the epidemic at that time, indicating that China had taken isolation measures against infectious diseases as early as ad 2. ”
”Because Chinese medicine effectively resisted the spread of the 321 major plagues, most Chinese people do not have a deep understanding of the plague. Plague is the most terrible monster in human history. In history, the Spanish flu, the European black death, the global plague, almost every plague, all caused the tragedy of tens of millions of people.”
”Let me briefly talk about the seven major plagues in Europe, almost killing tens of millions of people each time.”
”Among them, ancient Greece, which laid the foundation of European civilization, was destroyed by an unheard of plague; In 430 BC, a great plague occurred in Athens, nearly half of the population died, and the whole Athens was almost destroyed. ”
