摘　　要：中医学以“天人相应”、“阴阳平衡”为哲学基础 ,以“整体观念”、“辨证论治”为主要特点 ,以中药、针灸等为主要治疗手段来调整、激发人体的自我康复能力 ,纠正人体的偏常之性而达到防病治病目的。中医学所提倡的人与自然 (包括细菌、病毒等 )和谐共处 ,而不是对微生物大规模灭活的理念 ,维持了微生物与人类之间微妙的生理平衡 ,这正是医学未来的发展方向。千百年来 ,中医药为中华民族的繁衍昌盛做出了不可磨灭的贡献 ,使其在无数次瘟疫的侵袭下从未像欧洲一样一死上千万人 ;同时 ,中医药“简便廉验” ,在预防和治疗慢性病、多因素复杂性疾病以及新型病毒性疾病等方面尤有所长 ,故只有建立中西医并重的卫生保健体系 ,才能保障中国 13亿人口的健康 ,才能解决 9亿农民和城市贫困人口的缺医少药问题。建议实施“中医药五大振兴工程” ,即中医药政策法规保障工程、中医药人才工程、中医药科研工程、乡村中医工程以及中医药行政管理体制改革工程 ,以做到中医药的可持续发展。Traditional Chinese Medicine(TCM),based on the philosophic idea of “correlation between man and nature' and “balance between Yin and Yang' and characterized by “integrated concept' and “syndrome identification & treatment determination',adjusts and activates the self-recuperating ability to rectify its differentiation from normality of human body thus achieving the goal of preventing and treating diseases by means of traditional Chinese medicinal herbs,acupuncture and moxibustion,etc. The idea of “human should be in harmony with nature including bacterium,virus,etc.,but not to exterminate microbe on a large scale',held and promoted by TCM gives rise to a delicate physiological equilibrium kept between man and microbe,wich is just the development trend of medical science in the future. For thousands of years,TCM has made indelible contribution to the reproduction and prosperity of the Chinese nation,and under the countless attacks of pestilence has never made its people die in millions such as once occurred in Europe. TCM is also characterized by its “simple,convenient,cheap and effective method of treatment' and is especially good at preventing and treating chronic diseases,complicate multi-system diseases and new-type virus diseases. Therefore,only when the sanitation and healthcare system is established can the health of 1.3 billion people in China and the problem of shortage of doctor and medicine for 900 million rural population and large number of poverty-stricken urban population be solved. It is strongly suggested that five promotion projects,namely TCM policy and statute guarantee,TCM qualified personnel cultivation,TCM scientific research,development of TCM in rural areas and TCM administrative system reform,should be carried out in real earnest to make TCM develop in a sustainable way.
