On the source of COVID-19 virus, Collins put forward two views:
In the first case, with the evolution of novel coronavirus in its natural reservoir (probably bat or pangolin), its spike protein also mutates, thus combining with molecules with similar structure to ACE2 protein in human body and infecting human cells.
In the second case, this kind of novel coronavirus has entered human beings from animals before it acquired the ability to cause human diseases. After several years or even decades of gradual evolution, we finally gained the ability to spread from person to person, which can cause major diseases.
Comments:
It is still great that American scholars have come to such a conclusion. At least, I realize the power of nature, and this novel coronavirus is not artificial.
But after all, this American scholar studies modern medicine. He doesn't know that the five fortunes and six spirits are the root of novel coronavirus. Therefore, he devoted himself to analyzing its source from the perspective of virus. Due to different directions, research results are often half the effort.
From the perspective of Chinese medicine, novel coronavirus may or may not exist. But in the atmosphere of June in the lunar calendar, when the sun and cold water are added to the sun, it will create a warm winter environment. Wuhan is wet and heavy (it has been raining since winter), and the eating habits of local people in Wuhan are easy to cause wet stagnation (drinking beer and eating lobster, etc.). ), which will damage the spleen and make coronavirus a disease.
To analyze the epidemic situation, we must consider the factors of five movements and six qi, focusing on five movements and six qi. If we only analyze it from the perspective of virus, there are always levels, so it is difficult to really understand the real reasons for the origin, spread and evolution of virus. Traditional Chinese medicine emphasizes that life is on the ground, hanging in the sky, heaven and earth are in harmony, and life calls people. It is a way of thinking and a medical concept to look at people's life and health from the perspective of heaven and earth and see the factors that affect people's life and health.
It is suggested that relevant scholars learn the theory of five movements and six qi in traditional Chinese medicine and use five movements and six qi to guide epidemic prevention and treatment. I believe this is the most practical, scientific and intelligent one.
