We got news today that on November 1, 2019, the World Federation for Medical Education (WFME), managed by the World Health Organization (WHO), will delete eight Chinese universities of traditional Chinese medicine from the World Directory of Medical Schools (WDoMS). They are:

1. Beijing University of Chinese Medicine

2. Shanghai University of Traditional Chinese Medicine

3. Tianjin University of Traditional Chinese Medicine

4. Liaoning University of Traditional Chinese Medicine

5. Guizhou University of Traditional Chinese Medicine

6. Shanxi University of Traditional Chinese Medicine

7. Heilongjiang University of Traditional Chinese Medicine

8. Yunnan University of Traditional Chinese Medicine

According to a source (@芋头microwave), the reason for being delisted is that WDoMS believes that graduates with a medical degree in traditional Chinese medicine cannot directly enter clinical work, and the organization that provides this basis is the Clinical Medicine Professional Certification Committee of the Ministry of Education.

At present, the only traditional Chinese medicine schools included in the capital area are the China Academy of Chinese Medical Sciences, Beijing College of Acupuncture and Orthopedics, and Capital Medical University School of Traditional Chinese Medicine, and there are only 20 schools left in the country.

However, Beijing College of Acupuncture and Orthopedics has already merged with Beijing University of Chinese Medicine, and the China Academy of Chinese Medical Sciences only recognizes graduates before 1999. In other words, now only TCM graduates from Shougang Medical University in Beijing can gain world recognition.

The delisting of eight universities of traditional Chinese medicine means that international medical students from these schools will not be recognized when they return to China after graduation and will not be able to carry out medical activities. Similarly, medical students who graduate from these schools cannot use their diplomas to obtain medical licenses in Western countries, and the spread of traditional Chinese medicine overseas will be greatly hindered.

The attack on traditional medicine is a way for Western countries to protect themselves. On the one hand, they continue to strengthen the exploration and research of traditional Chinese medicine. On the other hand, they use various means to infiltrate and win over the Chinese elite and create various negative remarks about traditional Chinese medicine in the country, in an attempt to lead us to the path of self-destruction.

I hate the evil of traditional Chinese medicine and am always fighting on the front line. I hate even more that the disunity in the industry is ineffective and allows the enemy to cause so much harm to us.

今日得到消息，2019年11月1日，由世界卫生组织(WHO)管理的 世界医学教育协会(World Federation for Medical Education, WFME) 将8所中国的中医药大学从 世界医学院校名录(The World Directory of Medical Schools, WDoMS)中删除。 他们分别是：

1、北京中医药大学

2、上海中医药大学

3、天津中医药大学

4、辽宁中医药大学

5、贵州中医药大学

6、山西中医药大学

7、黑龙江中医药大学

8、云南中医药大学

根据某消息源（@芋头微波）透露，被除名的原因是WDoMS认为获得中医学医学学位的毕业生不能直接进入临床工作，而提供这一依据的机构是教育部临床医学专业认证委员会。

目前首都地区被收录的中医院校只剩下中国中医科学院、北京针灸骨伤学院和首都医科大学中医药学院，而全国只剩下20所。

但是北京针灸骨伤学院早已与北京中医药大学合并，对中国中医科学院也仅承认1999年以前的毕业生。也就是说，现在北京只有首医的中医毕业生能够获得世界认可。

8所中医药大学被除名意味着这些学校的医科留学生毕业后回国将不会得到认可，无法开展医疗行为。同样，这些学校毕业的医学生也无法使用毕业证去西方国家考取行医执照，中医在海外的传播将受到极大阻碍。

对传统医学的打击是西方国家的自保之路，一方面他们不断加强对中医的探索研究，另一方面他们通过各种手段对中国精英阶层进行渗透拉拢，在国内制造各种对中医不利的言论，妄图使我们走向自我毁灭的道路。

我恨透了中医黑，始终战斗在第一线。我更恨业内的不团结不成器，让敌人对我们造成了如此大的伤害。
