Traditional Chinese Medicine has played a significant role in the prevention and treatment of the recent COVID-19 epidemic in China. Since the outbreak has developed into a pandemic, Beijing University of Chinese Medicine hopes to share the experience of traditional Chinese medicine with the world, so that the time-honoured practice can serve more people, relieve the pain for people who suffer from the disease and save more lives. Committed to this, the university has developed “Chinese Medicine for Global Health”, a global platform where you can learn about how to prevent the disease with Chinese medicine while asking for help from the top practitioners in the field. No one is alone in this.
