Medical Science Is Not A Sophistry

7. Blind Or Not.1 )




Now, someone is still clamoring that 

The deceptive nature of TCM lies in its 
therapeutic effect .


In order to tout such a junk, he even used 
"Double-blind trials" as a  "Big Killer " to 
scare others, it's really pitiful and ridiculous !


In fact, just a little analysis can reveal what 
kind of  junk this guy is touting .

Or please think about a question:

Since the double-blind trials are so important 
and sophisticated, it cannot be done casually, 
for there must be many conditions that need 
to be met, right ?

For example:


1. The treatment of rare diseases

the sample size is too small for it's too difficult 
to gather enough cases

What should we do at this time?


2. The sudden outbreak of the epidemic

There was no time to conduct any double-
blind trial, not even enough time to gather 
all the necessary materials.

What should we do at this time?


3. Although there are many cases, the discrete 
distribution

In space, the cases distribute widely, and in terms
of time, it may take several years to discover a 
few cases, so that it is almost impossible to analyze 
effectively.

What should we do at this time?


4. The condition is progressing rapidly

The condition is progressing rapidly, so that 
any treatment is no longer needed before 
getting a clear understanding of what is 
going on.

What should we do at this time?

… …


In short, can't treatment be achieved before 
conducting a double-blind experiment ? 

To leave the patients to their own fate ?


But it is worth noting that in order to tout the 
double-blind trial, this guy also specially 
introduced the first effective treatment case 
of Ebola virus happened in 2014.

In 2014, the Ebola virus suddenly ravaged Africa, 
resulting in a mortality rate of over 50% for 
patients, which was indeed very dangerous.

At that time, two American healthcare workers 
were unfortunately infected and after careful 
treatment upon returning to their home country,
they recovered and were discharged.

This successful case is good news for us humans.


But this guy used this case to mock the methods 
used by TCM (Traditional Chinese Medicine), 
none of which were conducted through 
double-blind trails, which is really inexplicable !


But in fact, the effective treatment of Ebola virus 
patients in 2014 was completed without any 
double-blind trial, and this successful treatment 
also sternly warned us:


1. Double blind trials are just a research method, 
not a clinical norm: no one has the right to use 
the absence of double blind trials as a reason to 
prevent effective treatment !

2. The use of treatment methods that have not 
undergone double-blind trails cannot exclude 
the self-healing nature of diseases or the 
comforting effects of drugs, but as long as they
are effective, it is good enough and understandable. 

After all, medical science prioritizes treating 
diseases and saving lives, and in any case, 
medical science cannot be just a report 
analysis of double-blind trials !

3. Western medicine adopts treatment methods 
that have not undergone double-blind 
experiments to achieve effective treatment. 

Even if there are certain self-healing and 
comforting effects, it cannot be concluded 
that if TCM uses treatment methods that 
have not undergone double-blind trials to 
achieve effective treatment, it must 
be all self-healing and comforting effects!


As we know, the essence of such problems 
is that some guys intentionally use 
professional terms such as double-blind 
trial to mislead patients !
