Cooperation between China and the US for combating cancer
At present, Chinese people are working hard to build a healthy,
prosperous, beautiful, harmonious “HAPPINESS CHINA”. I think that
“common health is common prosperity” in the new era. In fact, “common
prosperity” includes the organic unity of “material wealth, spiritual
wealth, and physical and mental health”. It can be said that “common
health” is a higher level of “common prosperity”. This is not only
the common ideal and pursuit of Chinese people, but also the people of
the world, including the US. The new vision of “A Community with A
Shared Future for Mankind” proposed by Chinese President XI JINPING in
Switzerland 5 years ago79 has been widely recognized
by the international community. This requires us to first strive to
improve and protect the ecosystem, control and reduce environmental
pollution.
Sincerely speaking, China is currently committed to carbon
neutralization and carbon peaking for better protection of the
ecosystem. And China and the US reached friendly cooperation in the
field of the global climate change, which is also an important
opportunity. Both sides should take this as the fulcrum to expand and
deepen relevant cooperation. Whatever, I think these strategies are also
very helpful to new “CANCER MOONSHOT” in the US. I sincerely expect
the cooperation between China and the US is beneficial to the world’s
economic and social development.
All in all, the Covid-19 pandemic is still continuing in the globe due
to the Delta and Omicron variants of SARS-CoV-2. Since there were higher
viral loads in patients infected with the SARS-CoV-2
variants80, and early non-neutralizing, afucosylated
antibody responses are associated
with Covid-19 severity81, whether these patients are
easy to suffer from cancer after recovery or not, and whether cancer
patients with Covid-19 are easy to have adverse outcomes or recover, it
needs longer-term follow-up or more data. And I think that the reopening
of “CANCER MOONSHOT” in the US is really a great task with a special
significance and value in both the pandemic and post-Covid-19 era. At
the same time, since the distance between cancer and health is only
“1M”82, and there are cardiovascular, diabetes, and
cancer strips83, both “Health in All
Policies ” and “Health in All Laws ”63,84,85are helpful to cancer prevention and treatment in the globe.
