My medication fallacy (1) 我的醫療諺論（一）

The medical problem is everywhere. Not developing countries only, even those developed countries are lack of the power to solve this problem.

Price of medicine goes sky high because the R&D costing millions or even billions.

There are several vital points that we have to check. Why people get sick? Why people failed to guard their health? Why R&D costs so much? Why government has to offer free or low price medication?

Yes, I was born in Hong Kong. A nice rich port which gives free or very low cost medication. There are quite many medical insurance services. No, I never go to government hospital. No, I never get refund because I preferred Chinese herbalists instead of western doctors even since I was a teenager.

Chinese lives for thousands of years with no western medication. If you suppose we were the weaker race, you forgot that our population is the first in the world till now. Science is about fact, not fallacy.

When I had fallen sick at the age of 10, I intent to learn medication so that I could look after my health in the future.

That is lucky for me because I could find lots of books from mainland China and foreign countries in Hong Kong and at the age of about 14, the Hong Kong public library was established that offered books to borrow with no charge.

In simple words, my knowledge about Chinese medication was based on those Chinese books.
I am not going to talk about my history now. Just to give two cases, my Jaundice at the age of 19 and my diabetes just this year at the age of 60.　

No need to see the doctor, I recovered from my Jaundice in three weeks’ time because I had full knowledge of this problem. If you go to see the doctor, you are certain to have Gallstone and have to surgically remove the gall-bladder.

I have my own plan to deal with diabetes with the help of Chinese medication. It took five months only to recover from diabetes.

I have put these and other in my English blog, http://healthhuman.blogspot.com/.

There are lots to say later. This time, let's see why most got sick after the 'open up'. Not epidemic, not natural disaster; most got sick because they ate too much and worst of all, those foods that their body could not handle. Should we pity them? No, they deserved such outcome.
What responsibility the government has about this? It may be hard for the government to ask the citizens not to eat too much; that is not good for the economy. It may be hard for the government to educate the citizens; because most professors are nothing better than prostitutes, money is their common target.

I am not telling the government what to do. I am saying here for those who prefer to help themselves.

If you prefer to wait for the government to offer you free medication so that you can keep on ignorant about health, if you trust those doctors, agents of medicine manufacturers, do not read further here.

Remember during the dark age of China before the success of the Communist, the authority almost abandon Chinese medication.

Now China is richer now, will the government follows the same. Well, rich is a sickness that cannot be cured.

醫療的問題是國際性。不止發展中國家，已發展的國家也不能解決。

醫藥的價錢高得驚人因為研究費用達百萬以至十億。

其中有幾個重點要解決。人們為什麼會病了？人們為什麼不能保障健康？研究費用為什麼那麼高？政府為什麼要提供低價以至免費的醫療？

是的，我在香港出生。這個富有的海港城市有低價至免費的醫療。更有不少醫療保險服務。不，我從不到政府醫院。不，我從沒有得到醫療保險賠償因為我在青年時期起只信任中醫而不是西醫。

中國人沒有西醫生存了數千年。如果你認為中國人是較弱的民族，那你忘記了中國至今仍是世界人口最多的國家。科學是根據事實而不是假設。

我在約十歲時得了一場大病，所以我決定研究醫學認識來照顧好我的身體。

最幸運的是我可以找到中國大陸及外國出版的書而且在我十四歲時香港開設了公共圖書館免費借出書本。

簡單來說，我對中醫的認識完全是由那些中國出版的書本得來。

我不是在這裡說關於我的歷史。只是有兩個事件，我在十九歲時的黃膽病及今年六十歲的糖尿病。

不用醫療，我的黃膽病在三個星期就醫好了，因為我有這病的認識。如果你去看醫生，你就一定會有膽石而且需要手術來割除。

我有個人的方案來處理糖尿病。配上中醫治療，五個月後已回復正常。

我把這些及其他在英文博客 http://healthhuman.blogspot.com/ 登出。

日後會有很多話說，現在只說說在開放後為什麼那麼多人病了。不是流行病，不是自然災害，他們是吃了太多而且是身體不能應付的種類。我們應否同情他們嗎？不，他們是咎由自取。
政府對這個問題有沒有責任呢？政府是很難去宣傳少吃為佳；這對經濟發展不利。政府也難從教育下手；因為多數教授與妓女都是以錢為目標。

我不是提議給政府，我只是提議給打算自助的人。

如果閣下選擇等待政府提供免費醫療而繼續忽略健康，如果你仍盲目相信那些稱為醫生而實際是藥廠的推銷員，請切勿閱讀這裡。

還記得在共產黨革命成功前的黑暗時期，當時的政府差點就廢除中醫。

現在中國富有了，政府是否走當年的路。這個，富有本身是一個病，一個不可藥救的病。
