The World Health Organization (WHO) is the international benchmark for health. Their role in managing the SARS Coronavirus 2 pandemic has been critical: all states have followed their recommendations sooner or later. In addition, the WHO is the arbitrator that determines which treatments are valid and which are pseudoscience.
For decades, this institution has been considered apolitical. Their decisions, in theory, are based only on scientific, not ideological criteria. However, this could be changing. For 2022, the WHO has already announced that it will include some traditional Chinese medicine practices in its international vademecum. This means that both governments around the world and insurance agencies could start getting traditional Chinese remedies as a form of medicine, being as valid as science.
To what extent is this decision motivated by political or scientific reasons? Why is it a danger that traditional Chinese medicine will enter the WHO vademecum? Why should we be wary of traditional Chinese medicine? In this video, we will tell you.
