China News Online, October 30th (Reporter Li Shuzheng) "In the face of the new crown and various other epidemics that may break out in the future, mankind needs to abandon differences and face it together. This is not an ordinary beautiful word, but a long-term persistence. To maintain a community with a shared future for mankind is a solid creed that must be established.” At the 3rd World Top Scientists Forum that opened on the 30th, Zhong Nanshan, an academician of the Chinese Academy of Engineering and a famous respiratory expert, said in a video keynote speech.
In Zhong Nanshan's view, unless we live in an era where national borders are completely closed, we must face this serious issue together.
How to use scientific methods to minimize the harm of the new crown epidemic to human health and save as many lives as possible?
How to use scientific methods to find common ground as far as possible under the differences in national policies, living habits, and social cognitions to strive for better cooperation in transnational epidemic prevention?
How to promote effective communication and cooperation between the scientific community and other communities?
Zhong Nanshan has a deep understanding of this.
Since March this year, he has carried out long-term friendly cooperation with foreign scientific research colleagues.
"We found that scientists have a lot in common. We have a lot of common language in early diagnosis, transmission routes, antibody therapy and vaccine development."
Zhong Nanshan believes that while the new crown pneumonia epidemic is still raging, it is necessary to continue to have an objective and rational voice in the scientific community, and to contribute scientific responses to the world as soon as possible out of the shadow of the epidemic.
"Scientists have national boundaries, but science knows no national boundaries. The scientists I know and know, including those who participated in this conference and online forums, have done a lot of research in response to the epidemic, or have provided valuable references. Opinion." Zhong Nanshan said that to overcome the epidemic, it is necessary to strengthen global cooperation, and to cooperate more closely and at a higher level than now.
