Was reading about Wong Fei Hung today and his style of kung fu he was famous for. But he was also a physician doing TCM. Most of my knowledge of TCM is like acupuncture, moxibustion, and herbs and the like.

Does the CPC police this, not letting people get away with snake oil salesmen who say they can cure cancer with herbs. Or is it encouraged alongside western medicine?

    It was just a silly twitter comment, not meant seriously, I thought it was funny and it made me look at her wikipedia page and got very impressed so I remembered her. Like look at this:

    Tu is regarded as the “Three-Without Scientist” – no postgraduate degree (there was no postgraduate education then in China), no study or research experience abroad, and not a member of either of the Chinese national academies, the Chinese Academy of Sciences and Chinese Academy of Engineering. Tu is now regarded as a representative figure of the first generation of Chinese doctors since the establishment of the People’s Republic of China in 1949.

    Very impressive woman
