2025-03-20
On Dongfang Street in S ã o Paulo, the largest city in Brazil, the Brazilian International Cooperation Base for Traditional Chinese Medicine has been newly established, with the goal of creating a landmark of Chinese traditional culture featuring traditional Chinese medicine in South America. Recently, a reporter from China News Service visited the base to experience the integration of traditional Chinese medicine in Brazil's "new" and "old" aspects. The base covers nearly 2000 square meters, with a pharmacy and training center on the first floor, shaded by bamboo, wooden tables and chairs, and a blend of coffee and health tea. On the shelves are displayed various products of Foci Pharmaceutical, a "Chinese time-honored brand" introduced to Brazil, such as Liuwei Dihuang Wan, Xiaoyao Wan, Xiangsha Yangwei Wan, Guipi Wan, etc. On March 15th local time, in S ã o Paulo, Brazil, salespersons were organizing traditional Chinese medicine at the Brazilian International Cooperation Base for Traditional Chinese Medicine.

Fang Fang, the head of the Brazilian International Cooperation Base for Traditional Chinese Medicine and the chairman of Brazilian Daming Company, told reporters that currently, the base is using live streaming, online courses, and health lectures to let more Brazilian people and Brazilian traditional Chinese medicine practitioners understand traditional Chinese medicine formulas. Fernanda, the Brazilian girl in charge of the live stream, said that live streaming is still a new thing in Brazil. Currently, the weekly live stream mainly focuses on "combining the therapeutic effects of Chinese herbal medicine" and online discussions on "health topics that Brazilians are very interested in", including women's health and beauty preservation. Fernanda said that the number of Brazilian people who love traditional Chinese medicine is continuing to grow. "Cinnamon, ginger, purple grass, and other herbs are also very common in Brazil, and when combined with traditional Chinese medicine, they are well received by the Brazilian people. On March 15th local time, at the Brazilian Traditional Chinese Medicine International Cooperation Base, Brazilian Chinese medicine practitioner Wang Long was treating patients. The second floor is a medical clinic, photographed by Lin Chunyin, a reporter from China News Service. In the clinic of Dr. Wang Long, the chief physician of the base, a Brazilian doctor born in Guangzhou and who had studied in Hong Kong, is holding a probe to perform pulse therapy on a chronic disease patient, and then taking a silver needle to slowly apply the needle to his curved pool and three miles from his hand. Traditional Chinese medicine has great clinical value in intervening in chronic pain and tissue recovery, "said Wang Long." The combination of traditional Chinese and Western medicine has a very significant therapeutic effect. "" Dr. Wang Long's medical skills are good, and I rely on him to administer injections every month to relieve shoulder and hand pain, "said 72 year old citizen Rodrigues. The only drawback is" too many patients, unable to get registered. Wang Long stated that his current focus is on the cooperation between Pakistan and China in the field of "artificial intelligence+healthcare", which is also the direction that the base will strive to explore. Intelligent electronic medical records, intelligent pre diagnosis and follow-up systems with traditional Chinese medicine characteristics can enhance the intelligent collection capability of traditional Chinese medicine data. Like Wang Long, Bruno Limoro, a Brazilian doctor, also hopes to use the base as a platform to access and dock the latest information and cooperation opportunities of China's "artificial intelligence+medical". Bruno went to Xiamen, China to study Chinese medicine a few years ago. He was impressed by the local doctors' skill of Qihuang and robotic surgery, and paid close attention to the research and development progress of Chinese acupuncture and moxibustion robot and "TCM CT" human digital image system. Traditional Chinese medicine has a long history, and artificial intelligence will unleash its enormous potential, which will also benefit the Brazilian people Bruno said. The establishment of the base has added new highlights to the continuously improving bilateral relations between Pakistan and China Misasi, Director of the Civil Affairs Office of the Sao Paulo Municipal Government, said in an interview that traditional Chinese medicine will bring more positive impacts to the public health system of Sao Paulo and even the entire Brazil.
