摘要

面对暴发于武汉仍在全球肆虐的COVID-19

现代医学疫苗以及抗病毒药物的研发和临床试验正在进行. 中医学在近两千年与流行性传染病的抗争中

建立了一个包括诊断和治疗在内的完备体系. 它应对病原体引发的传染病的着眼点是人体对病原体的反应状态. 这是一种与精准医学个性化理念相一致的治疗方法

但却是一种不随病毒不同 (或变异) 而变的"以不变应万变"治疗方法体系. 与现代医学直接杀灭病毒的方法相比

中医学是一种在人体内作用点更广泛的更有效的治疗方法. 2003年治疗SARS

目前治疗COVID-19的显著效果

以及近2000年有效地应对瘟疫的历史

充分证明了中医学治疗流行性传染病的有效性. 本文探讨了中西医学治疗传染病不同的机制以及中医学治疗方法的优越性. 在今天单纯靠疫苗战胜流行性传染病的期待屡屡受挫之际

中医学基于机体反应状态的治疗方法

将为人类战胜流行性传染病提供一种的更有效的解决方案.

Abstract

In the fight against epidemic infectious diseases in the past 2

000 years

Chinese medicine (CM) has gradually developed a complete response system including diagnosis and treatment. The focal point of CM in the treatment of infectious diseases is the personalized response state to pathogen

which is a treatment method consistent with the personalized concept of precision medicine. Compared with the methods of directly killing or inactivating pathogens

which are used in modern medicine

CM is an effective treatment modality that has a wider range of points of action in the human body. The remarkable effects achieved while treating SARS in 2003 and the current coronavirus disease 2019 (COVID-19) pneumonia and the history of the effective responses to epidemics in the past 2

000 years have fully demonstrated the effectiveness of CM in treating infectious diseases. This article discusses the different treatment mechanisms for infectious diseases in CM and modern medicine and the advantages of CM methods

which will reacquaint the world with CM. The improvement of the diagnosis and treatment system of CM based on scientific concepts and methods and the organic combination of both treatment methods of modern medicine and CM will provide the best solution for humans to defeat epidemic infectious diseases.
