China News Agency reporter: When will Chinese medicine be introduced to Brazil? What are the stages?

The first is the budding stage: at the beginning of the 19th century, more than 2,000 Chinese immigrants arrived in Brazil during Portugal's colonial period. With these immigrants, Chinese medicine, including Chinese herbal medicine and acupuncture. However, due to communication obstacles, the knowledge of Chinese medicine was very limited in Brazil at that time, and traditional Chinese medicine was only accepted by immigrants that cannot be used in Portuguese.

In the 1960s, Asian immigrants, including Japanese immigrants, brought TCM acupuncture to Brazil, marking that Chinese medicine acupuncture entered a growth stage in Brazil. In 1961, Brazil's first acupuncture clinic was established, and the Brazilian Acupuncture Association was established in 1972. In 1977, Brazil legislative acknowledged the status of acupuncture artists. Since then, Chinese medicine has been further promoted in Brazil.

In the 1980s, with the deepening of China's reform and opening up, the further development of relations between China and Brazil, and Chinese medicine acupuncture has developed in Brazil and entered a mature stage. In 1984, the Brazilian Federal Physician Association established the Brazilian Acupuncture Doctor Association to provide acupuncture doctors with consultation, services, and guidance in the professional knowledge of academic exchanges and related traditional Chinese medicine acupuncture.

In May 2006, the Brazilian Ministry of Health issued a decree to incorporate natural therapy such as acupuncture, herbal medicine, follow -up therapy and warm bath into the Brazilian unified medical system SUS. Since then, Chinese medicine acupuncture has developed vigorously in Brazil.

After the Brazilian epidemic, China actively assisted the Brazilian people to fight against the epidemic, provided 1200 tons of anti -epidemic medical equipment to Brazil, and organized an online exchange meeting for various epidemic prevention departments to introduce China's anti -epidemic experience. More importantly, China and Brazil have achieved great success in the development, production and vaccination of new crown vaccines.

Reporter of China News Agency: What challenges do Chinese medicine currently face and develop in Brazil? What issues need to be solved urgently?

Due to the strict regulations of Brazilian drugs, it is difficult for Chinese medicine to register for drugs, and only food additives can appear. At present, Chinese medicine is not allowed to enter the Brazil market. To solve this problem, we must first promote Chinese medicine legislation in Brazil.

Therefore, I hope that the relevant Chinese traditional Chinese medicine management departments and related associations can contact the senior members of the Brazilian legislature to contact, communicate, and communicate more, so that they have more understanding and understanding of Chinese medicine. They are the makers and legislators of laws and regulations. Only by gaining their support and help, can Chinese medicine be hoped to succeed in Brazil's legislation.

The production prescription includes Chinese medicines such as Liuwei Dihuang Pills, Guipi Pills, Buzhong Yiqi Pills, and Zhibai Dihuang Pill.

At present, although Chinese medicine has some restrictions on laws and regulations in Brazil, both China and Pakistan are members of the BRICS member states.

First establish a Chinese medicine production base in Brazil, and then further promote the registration of Chinese medicine and related products in Brazil, and then promote the marketing of Chinese medicine in Brazil.

At the same time, with the importance of traditional Chinese medicine and the promotion of China's "Belt and Road" initiative, the Brazilian government and the medical community will definitely promote the medical institutions and professionals of both China and Pakistan in the fields of clinical, teaching and scientific research.
