Chapter 849 East African Medicine

In some village primary schools, textbooks, teaching equipment and teachers are very scarce, which is obviously not conducive to the development of basic education. Merging several village primary schools into a town can greatly solve this problem.

And this has a lot to do with the layout of East African villages. East African villages generally surround a town, with several villages closely surrounding it, forming a layout of stars overlapping the moon. On the contrary, if the villages are too far away, it will obviously be necessary to concentrate educational resources. The disadvantages outweigh the advantages. After all, no one can trust their children to walk more than ten miles to school.

Of course, if it is impossible to concentrate due to special reasons, you can still retain the qualification to run a school. This mainly depends on the specific local conditions and will be handled by the local government as appropriate before reporting.

Ernst continued: "Medical care is East Africa's weakness, or modern medicine. At this point, we in East Africa must vigorously promote traditional Chinese medicine clinics in rural areas and localize the traditional Chinese medicine industry in East Africa."

The good thing about traditional Chinese medicine is that many medicinal materials can be grown in the ground, so they can have a price advantage.

Although modern drugs are more efficient, East Africa is a latecomer in the field of modern medicine, and these drugs are extremely uncertain and not easy to crack.

Developed pharmaceutical and chemical companies in Europe and the United States have a monopoly on modern drug patents, and East Africa cannot dismantle and analyze these modern chemical agents like copycat "machines". After all, a slight difference, even if it is missed by a thousand miles, will cost lives.

Hence, modern medicine can only explore slowly. There is no shortcut. The only shortcut is to vigorously cultivate relevant talents and realize the ability of independent research and development as soon as possible.

Of course, this is a bit absolute. East Africa naturally has its own channels to ripen the barbaric growth of "modern medicine" in East Africa.

That is "human experimentation". After all, there are 20 million black people in East Africa. These are very rare "materials", but this belongs to the dark side of East African society, so I won't describe it much.

The large number of clinical trial opportunities makes East Africa's development in the medical field not slow. Just like the reason why India's medical industry, especially the pharmaceutical field, was outstanding in the past, it is because India has a lot of "materials" and a large natural trial Pharmacy.

Of course, no matter how fast modern medicine develops in East Africa, it cannot compare with the direct adoption of traditional Chinese medicine in East Africa. Moreover, traditional Chinese medicine now has advantages in price and talent training. This is why East Africa vigorously promotes the popularization of traditional Chinese medicine.

Under the guidance of the East African Traditional Chinese Medicine Association, the training of traditional Chinese medicine talents in East Africa has been institutionalized. The apprenticeship system has been abandoned. At the same time, many shortcomings and errors in prescriptions have been made up for and corrected through "indigenous" people. At the same time, because Africa is very different from the Far East in terms of climate and Due to geographical characteristics, in East Africa, traditional Chinese medicine has added many new plant medicines.

And because of the "material", East African traditional Chinese medicine has also developed rapidly in human anatomy. More detailed research on the human body has overturned many traditional cognitions and superstitions.

In fact, traditional Chinese medicine in East Africa has completely gone out of shape. Many traditional Chinese medicine hospitals and schools are even equipped with modern medical equipment such as microscopes and petri dishes, which is a completely different path from the traditional traditional Chinese medicine in the current Far Eastern Empire.

In the field of drug research and development, East African traditional Chinese medicine has made rapid progress. Of course, this is related to the weak "patent" awareness in Far Eastern countries. Therefore, East Africa has vigorously cracked traditional prescriptions and reagents through various means such as "stealing, buying, and borrowing", and then snatched Note patent.

This is not just for the Far Eastern Empire, but also for countries such as Japan, North Korea, Vietnam, etc., which have been brutally attacked. In addition to the East Asian cultural circle, India and the Arab region are all targets in East Africa.

These "backward" areas and their medical systems in the eyes of Europe and the United States are naturally looked down upon and even discriminated against by the West, but East Africa is obviously not included in this list, and they do not reject anyone who comes.

In this environment, East African TCM integrates the strengths of hundreds of schools and is supported by modern medical technologies and methods. It is difficult not to develop and grow. Even now, the boundaries between East African TCM and modern medicine are no longer clear. After all, what modern medicine knows, I can do, and what I can’t, I also have. In this case, if it weren’t for some special medication habits and slight differences in treatment methods, I wouldn’t be able to tell the difference at all.

Furthermore, the results achieved by East African traditional Chinese medicine will naturally be borrowed by East African modern medicine. Therefore, the two systems are now tending to merge. If East Africa does not deliberately prevent the formation of an East African modern traditional Chinese medicine system with traditional Chinese medicine in the future.

Therefore, East Africa is now both a "medically weak country" and a "medically strong country". It just depends on how it is compared. Compared with European and American medicine, East African medicine incorporates the medical achievements of East Asia and other regions. Compared with traditional Chinese medicine, East Africa also has European and American medicine. Medical specialty.

As a result, East African medicine has naturally taken an extremely "special" path, but in Ernst's view, this is a good thing.

Because the medical systems in various regions are actually biased against each other. For example, European religious and fundamentalist medicine will definitely have some conflicts and friction with modern medicine deep down. Far Eastern traditional medicine does not recognize European and American medicine. European and American people think that other The medical system is all "heresy" and "witchcraft".

East Africa has broken this "arrogance and prejudice", and various schools of thought can communicate and compete with each other, creating a feeling of "a hundred schools of thought contending" in the medical community.

In Ernst’s view, letting a hundred flowers bloom will naturally promote the development of East African medicine faster, so he is also happy to see the results. In the end, it still depends on who has the best curative effect. Anyway, the final result belongs to East Africa itself.

Of course, this is where East African medicine is strong, and where it is weak is also very weak. For example, in the cutting-edge fields of modern Western medicine, East Africa is definitely much worse, especially in the "special medicines" of some chemical products.

The same is true for traditional Chinese medicine. Many traditional Chinese medicine practitioners "close themselves to themselves", and the Chinese medicine practitioners who immigrated to East Africa are certainly not the "top" group in the Far East.

Of course, it is precisely because of this that East African traditional Chinese medicine practitioners can break the old ideas and develop vigorously with Ernst's tacit approval. If they fail to live up to their expectations, Ernst will not be able to help them even if he wants to.

At present, in the medical system of East Africa, traditional Chinese medicine clearly occupies an advantage, but over time, it has changed beyond recognition.

  If East African traditional Chinese medicine groups go to the Far East in the future, I am afraid they will be scolded as "deviant". In addition, East Africa has indeed "taken and borrowed" a lot of things, which is indeed a bit unkind.

Of course, East African traditional Chinese medicine is still immature and has no chance to show its face in the international community. After all, it is impossible for both the East and the West to recognize nondescript “East African medicine”.

Furthermore, it takes a lot of time to cultivate medical talents in East Africa. It will definitely take more than ten years to come up with a group of experienced "famous teachers". There are too few young people who can take the lead.

As for the current "medical masters" in East Africa, their level is actually similar to that of some so-called "masters" in the Far Eastern Empire in modern times. Their level may not be very high, but as pioneers and forerunners, many of them will be able to play a leading role in the East African medical community in the future. After all, the earlier one goes, the greater the chance of becoming the founder of various disciplines in East African medicine.

They are just taking the essence of medicine from the East, the West, and all over the world and discarding the dross. This is not considered "independent innovation" in the full sense.
